ADVISES GETTING READY TO PLANT LESPEDEZA CROP -- Agronomist Says Getting Ready As Important As Actual Seeding -& Getting ready for planting lespedeza is almost as important as the actual seeding itself, says Enos C. Blair, ex tension egronomist at State College. If the grower raised his own seed, he should clean and prepare it for planting so that there will he nr delay when planting time comes, Blair says. Otherwise, he should investigate prices and the quality of seed handled by different seed houses so as to get the best available seed at the most rea sonable prices and have time to order it before planting time. Tennessee 76, Korean, Kobe, and common lespedeza are the varieties best aadapted to North Carolina soils and most frequently planted, Blair points out. About 25 pounds to the acre is sufficient. Although lespedeza will not grow well except when handled carefully, it is not as difficult to raise as many peo ple think, and it is one of the best soil builders and hay crops that can be grown. When planting lespedeza on small grains which were sown the preced ing fall, Blair says, the lespedeza should be planted in February or March. The lespedeza wil grow after the grain has been harvested and may be grazed, plowed under, or harvested Many Non-Signers Want Contracts This Season Many former non-signers in the piedmont section of the State say they want to sign cotton adjustment con tract-- this season. Tobacco Barns Make Good Curing Houses for Potatoes Forsyth farmers are finding that to bacco barns make good sweet potato curing houses. L. I). Smith has cured 700 bushels in this way, and the sweets are keeping well. for seed in the fall. For detailed instructions regarding lespedeza in different sections of the state, Blair suggests that the farmers consult their county agents.
