Boys and Girls Like To Have Definite Projects To Handle Youths Learn More When They Have Work Of Their Own The farm boy or girl who ha* ? definite project to look after will gain a great deal of valuable ex perience, take a greater interest in farm life, and develop finer trait* of character, laid Dr. R. Y. Winters, direction of the N. C. Agricultural Experiment Station. Now that schools and colleges have closed and thousands of boys and girls are on the farm for the summer, he continued, the assign ment of projects to these young people will help solve a < ifficult problem. "We sometimes lose sight of the opportunities afforded on the farm for training young people i nd de. velnpine in them a sense of i e sponsibility,*' Or. Winters stated "Often parents do not have e nough patience to train their chil dren as they should. The children, in turn, lose interest in the faim and home, often preferring >o work elsewhere, even though < >e Jobs are hard and the pay small. "But this summer the _i_patil?ili ties for outside employment are not to good, and parents nave an ex cellent opportunity tp give their children tasks to do, or irojects to carry out, that will make them feel that they are accomplishing some thing worth while." Projects in boys and iris 4 H club work provide a good medium (or training young people and keep ing their enthusiasm alive. Dr. Win ters continued. The older the boy or girl, the greater the responsibility he ii capable of assuming. If ' ic inter est of older children is to be held, they must be given duties worthy of their ability. Dr. Winters, said. They like to study and mtke plans, to feel that they are on their own. County farm and home agents and vocational teachers will be glad to advise parents about proj ects for young people, he added. Gives Amount oi Corn To Plant lor Needed Silage The amount of corn one should plant to provide silage for a dairy herd depends upon the productivity of the land and the number of ma ture animals in the herd. The av erage Jersey or Guernsey cow will consume from 30 to 33 pounds of sil age a day and about three and one half tons should be provided for the six months period. On an average corn will yield one ton of silage to each Ave bushels of grain and the necessary planting can be comput ed by getting the number of tons required for the herd and then mul tiply this by Ave. Divide the ans wer by the average corn yield on the farm for the number of acres that should be seeded for silage. A n Apprecia tion I am very grateful to, and apprecia tive of, my Democratic friends who vot ed for me in Saturday's Primary. The vote was.larger than I anticipated. The memory of this expression of confi ?* dence, the loyalty of my friends and the many kind expressions to me will abide with me through the coming years. T. B. Attmore Millet and Sudan Grass Yield Good Summer Hav Crop Many Farmers Are Facing Serious Shortage of Hay And Grazing Crops Thousands of North Carolina far mart face a serious shortage of grazing and early hay crops this summer as a reculot of the hot, dry weather this year. However, if the drouth is broken any time soon the situation can be remedied by planting rapid grow ing hay crops, said P. H. Kime, plant breeding agronomist at the N. C. Agricutural Experiment Sta tion. Sudan grass and millet grow rapidly and are usually ready to cut in 45 to 60 days after planting. They give good yields of palatable hay, and will grow on a wide range of soil types, Kime pointed out. Sudan grass, best adapted to loam or sandy loam soils, should be seed ed at the rate of 25 to 40 pounds an acre, drilled in or broadcast, and covered to a depth of one-half to one inch. The amount of seed to use depends upon the fertility of the soil. When the seed heads begin to show, the grass is ready to cut. The hay wiii be tender, leafy and nu tritious and will cure easily. German millet, or Golden millet, gives larger yields than the other varieties, but the hays is rather coarse. It requires a fertile soil and plenty of moisture. Common millet is more hardy than German millet, although it pro duces a smaller growth. It makes a better quality hay, and is more suitable for thin, dry soils. Millet should be seeded like Su dan grass. When the heads are about one-fourth out of the "boots," about 50 to 60 days after planting, it is ready for cutting. Unless mix ed with other hay, millet should not be fed continuously to work ani mals. ?
