See ing how whipped down I was, and still on dangerous ground, I decid ed that since I could leave that territory and the bog wouldn't, it was up to me to go. I did, and did n't go back until next day, when he had calmed down and gone In his pen.

But unless I get a lot worse, my pet 'boa' hog, Joe can't possibly miss the sausage shop." Mr. Davis said he particularly remembered the feel of the hogs nose and mouth In his hand when he tried to shove the animal away from him while down on the ground. "The feeling will never be forgotten," he said, "although I can't describe it as it actually was. You might say it was kinda like fastly going to your own funeral in a wet coffin." - The Duplin farmer and merchant, who lives in the Beautancus sec tion, told us he wasn't planning to discontinue raising hogs, but did emphasize the fact that he would be a lot more careful about hand ling boar hogs in the future, and advised all other farmers who have such animals on their farms to profit from his experience. " Tain't nothing but a miracle, I'm telling you, is to why I'm living today!" he declared. ry Weil of Goldsboro, was marked recently for thinning. Of the living pines on the acre, 415 were marked recently for thinning. Of 835 living pines on the acre, 415 were marked for cutting and 420, were left for future growth. According to John L. Gray, the I marked trees yield 6.21 cords of pulpwood. The trees left for future growth would make 14.67 cords. Thus the acre has grown a total of Cp 8 cords of pulpwood in the first i3 years of its life. This is 1.6 cords per acre per year. At today's average prices the standing trees would bring about $3 per cord. Therefore, if all the trees were sold on the stump for pulp wood the acre would be worth ap proximately $62.64. If the owner did his own cutting, the entire stand would bring about $167.04 (at $8 per cord). The va lue of only those trees that should be cut now would be $49.68. QUESTION recommended seed? : What materials are for treating peanut ANSWER: According to J. C. Wells, plant pathology specialist fo the State College Extension Serv ice, the best materials for treating peanut seed are Arasan, 2 per cent Ceresan, Yellow Cuprocide, and Spergon. For each 100 pounds of eeed, use three ounces of Ajasan, or four ounces of any of the other materials. Seed treatment, says Wells, pays vu ut me iorm ot oetter germinar tion, improved stands, and higher yields.' For more information, see your county agent.
