CONTEST ANNOUNCF.MKNT ON
HONEY LOCUST
This is a call for one of the most
valuable trees in the Tennessee Val
ley notwithstanding the "cursings"
it gets as a weed tree. We now have
one variety that analyze the same
as torn in food value and more than
the sugar beet. But we want to
find a better one to plant in pasture
lands- Think what it will mean to
have a hill pasture planted to trees
of such high food value; being a leg
ume it will help make grass grow bet.
ter, while holding the .-oil in place,
and in the fall when the grass i
chewed off short a crop of bean pods
will drop equal in feed to a crop of
corn on the same amount of land.
Truly a wondertul use for the worth
less honey locust. There .s al.-o a pos
sible future for it in sugar produc
tion. The best tree found now will
help make each farm and the whole
valley a better place to tarm and
raise one's family. Let us see what
you can find in the search for an
Balanced Farming I
Is r uture rrojsram;
Agricultural adjusdment is pac
ing out of its emergency phase of
crop reduction into its .second phase
of maintaining a balance between
production and folisuinpii. n says?
Dean I O. Scaub, of State College.
The farmers, he said, have co
operated to curtail product ain. In
addition, the drought has required
the lise of much of the burdelisonm
surplus from other areas.
But the Agricultural Adjustment
Act was not created merely to elim
inate the recent oversupply and then
cease functioning. the deafci said.
There will ever remain the problem
of balancmg production vii con
sumption for the best interest of the
farmer and the consumer.
The balance has not yet been at'
tained, Schaub added. In fact, the
drought hu.s caused some new mal
adjustments that will have to be cor
rected before the agricultural adjust
ment program can achieve its ends.
The ideal is production of -sufficient
foods and feeds-to supply th, do
mestic requirements and the proba
ble export demands and at the .same
time return a fair price to the farm
er for his labor and investments.
Dean Schaub' said that during the
rest- of 1934 and l'.:i." the favmer.
can be of great assistance in devel
oping a well rounded . general plan
for the future. No agricultural pro
gram can succeed unless it is a farm
er's program, understood by them, and
carried forward, by thorn, he ompha
Hzed Save All Forage
For Winter Use
The drought in the corn and live
stock areas of the midwest has made
it highly important that North Car
olina farmers save all the feed ..and
forage crops possibl,, this year.
Hardly a state in the drought area
produced enough feed to Winter its
livestock. There will be a call upon
the .southeastern Itates .supply
the stricken area with feedstuff, says
J. H. Kinie. associate agrononu
the N. C- experiment station.
Production in North Car
would be sufficient for ordinary
ditions. he said- but the state
st at
olina
soon have 15,000 to 100,000 extra
cattle to feed in addition to supply
ing what feed it can to the drought
states.
At least two tons of forage will be
needed for each animal- Kime recom
mended that even the native grasses
and other, low grade forage crops be
saved.
The farmers should be careful,
however, to lay away enough seed for
future use when harvesting, soy
beans, cowpeas. and lespedc7.a as

Plant Gardens Now

Fall gardens will supply the fam

in the winter.
Most of the summer clops are now
gone, but the supply of vegetables
can be kept up by planting fall crops
in September and October, says
Robert Schmidt, associate horticul
turist ,.t the N C cp r'inie-nt sta
tion. Fall vegetables. I'm the tx:i.-l part,
belong lo the leafy group ami icmure

promote -rapid growth. The crops
should be those which can withstand
the early frosts.
Snap beans will mature m about 50
days and may still lie planted. Schmidt
said. However. 'magnesium arsenate

trol the Mexican bean beetle.
It is a little hie for U'ets, but if

Cabbage- turnips, kale, mustard, bro
coli, teildergreen Chinese cabbage,
collards. lettuce, spinach, onions, and
radish make good fall crops..
The fertilizers should contain largy
quantities of quickly available nitro
gen. The' soil should be well pre
pared before 'planting.' Sufficient
cultivation to control grass and weeds
is also necessary-

The nervous "tie' appealed to Magis

"My neighbor otue had a bantam

Magistrate Adams searched the

grounds for stopping the. crowing.-
there will U' a heavy ' demand for

Cowpeas may be cut for hay some
time after the' peas have been picked.
Soybeans planted in rows should be

plantings 'seldom make good seed and
are difficult to. harvest except with a

broadcast-lilahted soybeans for

Where l.'.-pedcza has been panned

Although thirty-nine other states
in the Lnion have such laws, which
weie passed originally to permit vot

was of opinion that the power of the
ley.slatuiv with respect thereto
sheiuld be strictly limited so as to
oermit it to authorize absentee vot

from the state in the service of their
country and persons physically disabled-

that the legislature might permit

Timely Questions
And Answers On
Farm Problems
(Question: How should land be in
oculated for growing alfalfa?
Answer: A good, creqi of sweet
clover. Burr clover or Black medic
grown within the past three to five
years is sufficient inoculation for most
soils- Where' these crops have not
been grown, soil from a field that
has
been planted to them may be
used.
this
acre
From 200 to 400 pounds of
-oil should be applied to -each
of land seeded to alfalfa.
Dampen, the. seed with a mixture of
equal parts of water and molasses
and silt on a small quantity of the
soil from the inoculated field. Stir
th,, seed until they are well coated
with the soil Commercial inoeula
lafing material;-! may be used if in
oculated soil is not available.
Question: When, should developing
pullets --be taken off the developing
mash and placed on laying mash?
.-'Answer: It is best to let the b:rd.
come up to about 25 'per 'cent. liio
dm t o.n be fore the '"change is made in
the m.-h. The laying mash stimu
lates egg production which may cau-i.'
th,. immature birds to stop growing
and it is better to have a flock with
high vitality than to have a high
egg production at the expen-e of
iKidy vigor. !! sine the' birds are
fully developed and. producing about
25 per cent before making the change.
'Question: . How an 'lairy calves
be rid of stomach worms?
Answer: Preventative measures
aie most important, in controlling this
parasite. Pastures should be well
drained and the calve? placed on

It will be noted that this, provi
sion does not establish the absentee
balled by constitutional provision. It
merely permits the legislature to es
tablisii it in a limited class under
properly restrictive regulations. It
does not prevent the legislature's re
pealing the absentee voting law or re
quire that any provision tor absentee
voting be made. Its only effect is
to limit the peiwer ed' the legislature
with respect to permitting absentee
voting.
Wh.le 1 wish that the revised Con
stitution had limited the power of
the legislature with resoect to au
thorizing absentee voting to a greater
extent than it does; Us failure tei
contain greater restrictions is no rea
son for opposing it The right of
the legislature to authorize absentee
votinir umler the present Constitu
tion is limited: ami th,, revised ton

is reeiu'.red to nie'scribe properly re
strictive regulations even m these
cases.
The argument that the vevisee
Cemstitutiem re'eoirnizes the right eif
absentee veiling is unsound- It mere
ly recognizes the right f the' legis
latino lo permit absentee veiling In a
limited class of cases, but it doe's
