PEOPLE ARE URGED TO FEED THE BIRDS Bird lovers here are urg- ! ing people of this section to ! feed the bird population, during the severe weather or many of the feathered < j creatures will not survive. ; ; A snow of a few days works 1 a severe hardship on birds; one which continues longer than a few days is always fatal to some of them. Scraps of bread, suet, crushed grain or fine seed may be placed outside and the birds will soon learn to come regularly for their feedings. It will be surpris- ; ing to see how many birds j there are—in one instance j where they have been fed j regularly since the snowlj first fell, literally hundreds i show up for their feedings, j \ Now is the time to insure \ our bird populations for the j : coming months, and a little \ time taken for this work \ will repay in great dividends \ DAY BOOK NEWS !

Ten field experiments of ! the Agricultural *Experi- \ ment Station show that ! the response of wheat and 1 other small grains to ferti- lizer is related to the pre- j viou s cropping systems and j their associated fertilizer j practices, says the sixty- j seventh report of the Sta- j tion, recently released by j Director L. D. Baver of j J State College. In a system where heav- j ily fertilized cotton had pre-15 dominated on a sandy loan l soil, wheat responded only ! to nitrogen. Wheat grown J in a rotation of wheat, j sweet clover, and corn on a j Davidson clay loam soil, ] which had been lihtly ferti- j lized, responded to phospho- \ ric acid and potash, i Since much of the small grain acreage is lightly fer tilized, the station report reminds farmers that they should be careful in plan ning their fertilizer requre- ! ments for small grains. Un- I der conditions small i grains respond to both a S complete fertilizer at seed- S ing and .a topdressing of \ nitrogen in early spring.
