The program will e-ive the farmers
dire.t tinaiii'ial aid in the form of
payments i'or limit i n tr -their produc
tion ( f soil-depletinr crops, and for
carrying out various soil-bui!din and
conserving practices.
From IT, to 20 million dollars will
be available fur distribution this year
in soil-conservation grants to North
Carolina farmer.
Indirectly, it will aid them finan
cially by preventing the production of
. price-ruininjr surpluses, by increasing
the efli.-iency of farming, and by stim
ulating the live-at-home movement.
The soil.buildintr practices, if fol
lowed generally, will greatly increase
the fertility of the soil within the next
few years, the dean pointed out, and
this will make possible a more eco
nomic and efficient production of
crops.
By checking erosion in the moun
tain and Piedmont areas and by re
claiming worn-out land, he continued,
the program will reverse the soil
ravaging processes that have been
going on for years. This will-.help
safeguard the future of agriculture
and the Nation.
The program will encourage bal
anced farming So as to avoid the over
production of certain crops to the
neglect of others. It will also en
tourage the farmers to produce at
home, as much as possible, the things
needed on the farm.
By stimulating the production of
forage and feed crops, the program
will give an impetus to dairying and
the production of beef cattle, the dean
pointed out.
The state needs more dairy and
beef cattle, he emphasized.
An increase in timber production
and land reclamation through refor
estation will also follow. Thifi year
forestation of fields which have been
in cultivation will probably count as
a soil-building practice for which
pnvments will be made.
The dean also announced that Sec-

Screw fly maggots, a source of mu h
trouble in states further -outh, ap
peared in a number of southern North
Carolina counties, lat summer, said
F. I. ase, animal husbandman at
State College.
The maggots are hatched from eggs
laid in wounds or scratches in the
skin of farm animals by the screw fly.
If the wounds are not treated, and
the mairL'ots killed, the animals often
die in a short time.
Unlike blow fly maggots, which
feed on dead tissue, screw fly mag
gots burrow into the living tissue.
Wounds infested with .screw worms
give olf a bloody discharge. lilow
fly maggots do not cause bleeding.
In infested localities, farmers
should not ear-mark, castrate or de
horn cattle in warm weather except
when absolutely necessary, Case
warned. If it is necessary, be sure
to apply pine tar oil to the wounds
ac once, ami every nay until they are
healed.
Kxamine the animals frequently for
scratches or other wounds, which
should be treated with pine tar oil.
Remove from barns, lots and pas
tures all nails, wire, broken boards',
or other objects that may cause tlesf.
or skin wounds.
tAny animal found infested with
screw worms should be be treated im
mediately. Instructions for the
treatment may be obtained by writing

the case what are. you going to do fur
a cash crop. We suggest that every
tobacco grower consider putting out
some tomatoes or beans or both to
make a supplemental cash crop.
It seem-; that many of our people
il.i not understand the meaning of
Demonstration Farms and Watershed
project. Some have the idea that all
that you have to do is to come to the
county agent's office and ask for ,o
many bags of . fertilizer and that they
should get it. The TVA is not giving
away fertilizer.. on the other hand tin
1 VA is looking to every farmer to
stop erosion on his farm. On cer
tain farms in Haywood county farm
programs have been worked out which
we believe will eventually ston erosion
ihd build up the farm. These pro
grams have been submitted to the
TVA and approved. To encourage
this kind of work the TVA can give
certain assistance. Many farmer in
Haywood county are eligible to apply
for assistance in building up their
farms. We are out of blanks right
now but we expect more blanks in at
an early date. Any farmer Who wants
to apply for assistance may do so.
We have approved 74 farms as Dem
onstration Farms. We have approved
17 farms in Iron Duff watershed. We
people of Haywood county should ap
preciate the co-operation and assist
ance that the TVA is giving us.
Question: How long after males
have been removed from the poultry I agement in last year's program
hock win lertiie eggs be produced
Answer: In exceptional cases, fer
tility has been known to persist for a
period of four weeks In general,
however, the bulk of eggs are infer
tile from two to three weeks after the
males have been removed.
Our trucking program is not get
ting the consideration from our best
farmers that it should. We know that
there were mistakes and mismnn-
We
have eliminated these things. This
year we do not want any farmer to
sign a contract who will not give the
crop his careful attention. We do
want our good conscientious, farmers
to give this a trial this year. We
know that we can get production if
We hope that every farmer of Hay
wood county will be at the court hou.-se
