Keen Interest Shown in Co-op Essay Contest Raleigh, March 30.?Continued in terest is being shown in the 7th an nual essay contest of the North Caro lina Cotton Growers Cooperative As sociation, M. G. Mann, secretary treasurer of the cooperative, said here this week. Mr. Mann, who is now visiting rural schools in the cotton belt and who has already been invited to visit more schools than he will be able to, said that "the vocational and home economics teachers are showing more interest than ever before." "I find that every student in a num ber of the schools I have visited is planning to participate in the con test," Mr. Mann said. Last year lOo per cent of the students in 19 schools ?wrote essays in the contest. The subject of this year's contest is "Education and Cooperation in the New Deal for Agriculture." "In selecting this subject," said Mr. Mann, "the committee had only one thought i.i mind: To impress the boys and girls with the fact that we as farmers must learn to cooperate in production and marketing, not just because the government pays us to cooperate, but rather because of the added remuneration that will accrue to us from this cooperation over a long period of time." "In other words, we as farmers I can not expect our government to I continue to pay us to do what we should already be doing for our own good and of our own free will. "We hope, if it does nothing more, the essay contest, will impress this fact indelibly upon the minds of our rural boys and girls." Beans With Corn Good Cattle Feed Velvet beans grow with corn for soil improvement also make an ex cellent cattle feed, says L. I. Cas, ani mal husbandman at State College. George L. Pate, Robeson county fanner, has demonstrated their value for wintering cattle after part of the corn has been removed or when hog ged down with the corn. On a 20-acre field this winter, after 225 bushels of corn had been gathered I and the rest allowed to remain with the beans, he wintered 30 head of yearling and two-year-old steers and 26 head of hogs. In less than two months the steers made an average gain of 2.05 pounds per head each day. There also re mained enough feed to maintain 18 head of breeding heifers for 28 days. His total gains were 3,415 pounds of beef, 1,265 pounds of pork, and a considerable improvement in the soil. Modern Charm In The Sun Room* > ??- ???
