Let us grow clover and grass on the bill;
While intensely the le N and flats we till.
The cows and hens wil settle our daily bill;
While the beeves, she and tobacco the coffers fill.
And, when orchard, ga den and sty the larder fill,
Then, with a smile, wil Mary greet her Bill.

SPECKS ON TOBACCO LEAVES
In traveling over the countyh there
has been several of the men asking
about their tobacco leaves spotting.
This is a small brown spot on the
leaf that does not seem to spread.
We think the cause of that is due to
the rain. The tobacco has grown
very fast and the rain -drops hit the
leaf and then the hot sun scalds this
spot. We do not think that is either
Angular Leaf Spot or Wild Fire. We
have collected some leaves to send to
Dr. Wolfe at Duke University for ex-
amination. I
trouble, that the first treatment for
worms would rid them. There was a
post mortem held on some of the sick
b'rds and found that the birds had
Muco-enterit:-. This is a new disease
of poultry and very little work has
been done as to the particulars of
the disease. The disease affects the
intestine of the bird and completely
close.? the intestine. Therefore, the
second treatment for worms would
be injurious to the bird and they I
should not be treated more than nec
essary. i

In case you have turkeys that are
sick it k time then to have them look

most dangerous disease to the turkey

a cure for this disease. The thing
to do is to practice sanitation and
keep the turkeys on fresh land as
near as possible. Mr. Van Franklin
