A'ot present for the picture were other officials lion Steed and Hank Richards Tips Given For Extending Livestock Feed SuddIiVs North Carolina farm animals may find their food fare slightly on the exotic side this winter. Ragweed hay, for example, may be one of the offerings. Crabgrass will be on the menu and johnsongrass. too. Just how much of this unconventional-type feeding will be done depends on the final outcome of the blight-struck corn crop. The feed supply is expected to be shorter than usual, but experts won't be sure Just how short until the corn crop is harvested. North Carolina State University extension specialsits have come up with some recommendations and - remainders that farmers can use in extending the feed supply. These include making use of plants which have some nutritional or filling value but aren't normally extensively used. The NCSU specialists point out thai "considerable weed type growth has occurred in many areas" as a result of late summer rainfall. "Johnsongrass. crabgrass. even ragweed if harvested early. make acceptable feed for beef animals and some dairy i animals." These plants should he salvaged when needed for hay or silage or used for temporary grazing. Here are other suggestions: -Salvage all feed possible even though quality may he down. --Glean harvested lields of corn and soybeans. An acre of corn and soybean gleanings can provide up to one month's feed for a 1,000-pound cow . ? ?Fertilize cool season pasture grasses to obtain maximum fall growth. -Don't overlook lespede/a for hay, eithei for home use 01 for sale. -Seed ryegrass jini small grains for grazing. -Seed ladino clover with tall fescue or orchardgrass. The relatively new and high producing Tillman ladino variety is recommended. Seeds of this variety will be harvested on the West Coast in the next few weeks and should be available in fairly laigc quanity in North Carolina later this tali Regal is also a recommended ladino variety. Potomac and Boone are the favored orchardgrass varieties. --Alfalfa is a good choice on the well drained soils of the Piedmont and mountians. -Blueboy wheal is first choice for spring silage. It can be planted in a mixture of other small grains or in pure stands --Consider expansion of i ma 11 grain crops to be harvested for grain. Producers participating in the feed grain program arc cautioned to check acreage restrictions. The NCSl' specialists urged larmers to consult with local county extension agents I'm I I w*''SLAND \c . se*' Vn,e ",??nKl^J,i,,rdee 'ZnH parching ior someone vs ,ll,Mii whSlsT "",uish J ,M '??

Local Business As election time approaches, the word Irom Washington is thar The American economy is looking better. Well it might. There is no excuse for a depression in the United States. Prosperity is based upon productive capacity of a ntfion, plus the efficiency of distribution of goods. Production and distribution are so closely related that they are considered by some economists to be a singular factor in national wealth. Unemployment and lay-offs b> major manufacturers are widely publicized. However, distribution failures are rarely mentioned in the news. Vet in a surplus productive society, distribution failure always precedes production cuts and industrial unemployment. In a real sense, distribution failure, be it in automobiles or television sets, is an advertising failure extending from the largest manufacturer to the smallest retailer. The ultimate factor in national prosperity is the local retailer. It is his selling ? largely his local newspaper advertising ? which creates employment and lower production costs. When local advertising anywhere helps the merchant to sell a new home ot a new coat, it affects employment and buying power in New York, Dallas, or San Francisco.
