Dearstyne, head of tha poultry department at State Colletre. During the <wwiiiy year every effort should be made to get the greatest number of eras from the feed which is available.

C. Agricultural Experiment Station show that small grains should be fertilized at the time of planting to obtabi larger yields and eattra profits, reports Dr. £. R. Collins, in charge of Extension agronomy at State College. Growers should use 300 pounds of a 3-9-6 or 4-16-6 pa- acre in'tbe Coastal Plain and the same amount of 3-12-6 or 4-12-4 in the Piedmont and Mountains. On fertile soils, where less nitrogen in required, he suggests 300 pounds of an 0-14-7.
