Phone 4241 Bacteria Needed by All Legume Crops When legumes are planted for soil building purposes on a field where they have not grown for several years, the field should be inoculated with nitrogen-forming bacteria. Without these bacteria, the le gumes cannot absorb nitrogen from the air and are, therefore, of little value as a soil builder, said I. V jShunk, professor of botany at State 'College. The bacteria which ailect some le gumes will not affect others. Hence | i! is essential to inoculate the soil with the right kind of bacteria, he j added. I One method is to take surface soil from a place where there have been , | legumes like those to be planted in i the new field, and bioadcast this | soi" over the field at the rate of 300 i to 500 pounds per acre. This had disadvantages, since the new soil may spread weeds or plant t diseases. A good method is to in troduce the bacteria through the ust of commercial cultures, Profes- j sor Shunk pointed out. The cultures are inexpensive and 1 may be obtained in liquid form, on solidified agar, or in soil or pea1 The cultures can bo placed in the! soil where they will be near the loots of the legumes. Even if the new field has grown legumes in recent years, the amount J of bacteria left in the soil may be. small, and it is economically un sound not to inoculate the soil, the professor stated. He also pointed out that when legume crops are cut for hay, the; nitrogen in the plants is removed Plowing under the remaining roots j ana short stubble will not help the soil very much.

For Themselves The 4-H club boys and girls made i good showing for themselves at he State fair recently, according to N. R. Harrill, club leader at State College. The dairy calf club exhibits, a feature of the'fair, were the best ver staged by 4-H club members in ' hii State, Harrill declared. The corn club display and the 1 earn demonstrations by the 4-H j lub girls were also on a high plane. ndicating the strong position of i lub-work over the State. Ray and Dempsey Morrison, Ire iel!

In the Guernsey county groups, first place went to Buncombe, with Davidson second and Burke third. Wilkes County took first place in the corn (lub show, winning the sweepstakes tor the best county ex hibit and the best entry of 10 ear> of any variety. Brice Hayes, of th*?

To Hold Public Meeting To Discuss Extending Quarantine With tests showing the dreaded Japanese beetle prevalent in all sections of North Carolina as well as in other states, the Secretary of Agriculture has called a public hearing on November 16 to discuss extending the quarantine. Alternatives to be considered are extension of the quarantine to cover North Carolina and all affected areas, or abandonment of the quar antine on the ground that it has proven ineffective. x A full discussion of the Japanese b* etle control problem will take place, and North Carolina officials, as well as those from South Caro lina. Illinois. Indiana. Ohio, Mich igan and Missouri, along with nur serymen, truck growers, florists, gaideners, golf club managers and park officials from these states, where quarantines may be invoked, have been invited to attend the meeting. ?' If the quarantine is invoked in this state, all shipments of nursery stock outside the state will have to pass Federal inspection. Cars mov ing out of the State will also be stop ped and any nursery stock or earth |will be inspected. During the sum mer months, or what is termed the flying season for the beetle, all in terstate shipments of fruits, vege tables and other farm crops will likewise be subject to Federal in s|>cction. A similar provision is r?de for shipments inside the State lo keep down the spreading of the ptst, but this must be handled by state agencies. In 1933 a similar meeting was held in Washington, but the number of beetles found in the traps in this State were not sufficient to justify a quarantine. Areas in Virginia, as v. tll as in 14 other states, have been under quarantine for some time. Lespedeza Again Proves Its Worth Lespedeza has scored one of its gicatest successes as a soil builder <??i the farm of Charles A. McCall in McDowell County. A one-year crop of lespedeza. plowed under last fall, gave the big gest increase in corn yield this year that has ever been witnessed by E C. Blair, extension agronomist at State College. L In 1934, McCall sowed lespedeza on his wheat field and allowed it to grow thiough the summer. Both I weeds and lespedeza were plowed under in the fall. 1 iw?Y " LOOK AUK?

Let this agency protect your home Harrison and Carstarphen BILL CARSTARPHEN NORMAN HARRISON Braaek Bask Building WILLIAMSTON, N. C. This year he planted corn on the held, with the rows running from the lespedeza area into a section where only weeds had grown. No fertilizer or manure was applied, but the corn was cultivated well On the two areas there was so much difference in the corn that J Gordon Blank, county agent, meas ured the yields. On the area where no lespedeza had grown, the yield was >4.8 bushels to the acre. Where lespedeza had been plowed under, the yield was 59.4 bushels. Since both areas were cultivated alike, Blair stated that the increased yield of 34.6 bushels per acre may be attributed directly to the les pedeza. HiCall's farm is in a valley ai the foot of the Blue Ridge mounvj tains, in a region that until a few ytars ago had been considered too cold for lespedeza. He has used lespedeza regularly in a three-year rotation of corn, soy> beans, wheat and lespedeza. WantS PENNED AT MY LOT: 2 FEMALE hogs. Owner may get same by paying costs. A. F.
