Livestock Feed:
i At present the over-all feed
supply is off about 20 percent with
the supply ofpr otein feeds expect
ed to be off 50 to 70 percent by
this fall. Another factor compli
cating the feed picture is the short
age of fertilizers especially nitro
gen. With these factors in mind,
it Is suggested that farmers pro
vide all the temporary ' grazing
possible. The following crops can
be planted now and will help to
alleviate the feed situation.
A. Sudan Grass:
Sudan grass can be seeded where
stable manure or nitrogen is av
ailable and will give good grazing
in 6 to 8 weeks. The manure
should be applied before seeding.
30 to 35 pounds of seed per acre
is recommended where broadcast
ing is practiced, or 15 pounds
per acre where planted in 2 foot
rows. 300 to 400 pMnds of a com
plete fertilizer as high in nitro
gen, as can be obtained should be
applied on each acre to be plant
ed, top dressed with 100 to 200
pounds of Nitrate of Soda, or its
equivalent J i
B. Sorghum, Soybeans, Cowpeas:
These crops are other possibili
ties for quick forage for dry cows
and beef cattle when sown as a
mixture of 2 bushels per acre of
soybeans or cow peas and 30 lbs.
of sorghum. This should be ferti
lized with about 400 pounds or a
complete fertilizer and cut for
hay crop when the sorghum be
gins to boot-; i vJ
O. Soybeans:
Soybeans will provide good sup
plementary grazing and a rather
quick hay crop, or can be harves
ted and used as a source of pro
tein, either by crushing and feed
ing or exchanged for- soybean
meal.'"-'.-":lr;
The Ogden, Tokio, and Biloxi
varieties are recommended for gra
zing. Most any adapted soybean
variety may be used for hay, but
such fine stemmed ones as Ogden,
Otootan, and Laredo will produce
a better quality hay. The Volstate,
Ogden, Woods Yellow, and ToHo
varieties are recommended for
seed. AH hay should be cut early
in order to maintain a higher pro-
tein content which Is especially
needed now. ; .
Terrapin Bug:
Harlequin, cabbage bug or (Ter
rapin Bug) which has always been
such a destructive pest can be
easily controlled now If the coll
arets from which this Insect feeds
is dusted with Saba DUla dust.
The insect is killed lnuncdlatcly

Uniform Marriage
Dunn, June 11. Describing the f
current divorce rate as "perfectly,
terrible," Superior Court Judge v
Henry L. Stevens of Warsaw today
proposed federal divorce and mar-.
riage laws which would give cou
ples "cooling off period" before
marriage.
Judge Stevens made his obser- -;
vations after granting more than
20 divorces in the Harnett County
Superior Sourt. Two of the persons
he granted divorces were reniar-
ried in less than 24 hours. One of
them was divorced from a con- '
fessed bigamist the first time.
"We've got to do something to ,
stop this marriage traffic running
over state borders," said the jurist.
"Couples should be given time to
think," he said, pointing out that
some of them even run off to bor-JT"
dering states while under the in. .
fluence of whiskey to take the. .
wedding vows. As for war marv .
riages. ie attributed some of the
distress to "pent ftp emotions and
tenseness caused by the war, to- ' -gether
with the scattered popula- '
tlon." He said the present sltua- "
ion was merely the backwash of
the war tiroes. k
