GARDENS AND FLOWERS Sponsored By Shelby Garden Club. i By R. W. SHOFFNER Under the name of Garden and lowers, there will appear In The Itar for several weeks, suggestions n the care of each of these. These will corhe from the very est home authorities In Shelby nd Cleveland county. Since the time la right for grass owing the first articles will deal vtth winter grass sowing. In preparing for a lawn In the all there are several things to con sider before sowing grass seed. First s the condition of the soil—that Is, vhether It Is ready to be sown or lot. In’ this article I am dealing irlmarlly with grass that is suitable 'or winter lawns. If the lawn has grass on It now and you want to e-seed it for winter purposes, rye rrn&R Ik t.h* lrtnri r\f oratt iow. The lawn should be mowed ’irst fairly dose and then raked vith a steel rake enough to scratch he surface of the soil. The seed should be mixed with some kind of fertiliser of rich dirt so as to make it easier to sow. After the seed has seen sown, you should again rake he seed in; and if you have some rich dirt, broadcast the lawn thor oughly with this, enough to partly '.over the seed. Then it Is advisable to wit the lawn thoroughly to set tle the seed and the new dirt that aas been broadcast. If this Is a newly prepared lawn, he soli should be worked thorough y and should have a good rain to settle the soil; and then scratch the top of the soil lightly with a iteel rake, making sure that all •ough places and low places are smoother so as to make a perfect iced bed. When you finish sowing one way, turn around and sow the >ther half of the seed across the ast way you sowed. This should be -aked In very lightly, raking only >ne way; do not push' your rake lack and forward as this will lunch the seed. The best time for leeding the seed Is right now. Fer tilizer with a high content of nitro gen Is the best fertilizer for this type of grass. It might be advis able to Use some lime in preparing the soli if there Is not sufficient .line already present in the soil. 3eed should be sown at the rate of approximately one and one-half sounds to every 200 square feet.

Require Cotton Adjustment For 1935, Schaub Declares COLLEGE STATION, Raleigh, Oct. 4.—Without an adjustment program for cotton In 1935, there would be a danger of a rise in pro duction and a return to the five cent prices of 1932 and early 1933. In Issuing this warning. Dean I. lO. Schaub. of State College, said he did not mean that the growers would intentionally bring about such a condition if the adjustment pro gram were discontinued, but the natural developments would lead to It. How It Might Be For instance, he pointed out, one grower would think he could safe ly increase his crop by 10 acres and use more and better fertiliser. The present price would cause him to think such action is justified. If the 2,000,000 other cotton growers did the same, there would be an in crease of 20,000,000 acres right away, In addition to the Increased acre age, the greater use of fertiliser would add greatly to the increase in production, if the growing sea son is good, the dean said. How Much To Plant? “Fop that reason, . each grower may well ask himself the timelj question ‘How much cotton should 1 plant in 1935?’ The question needs to be debated at meetings of grow ers and by the county control as mind that every grower in the so'ith should have the same privilege as any other group or individual,” Schaub said. "The south has seen the benefits which come from a cooperative pro gram with themselves and theii government and I do not believe they will wish to return again to the low prices and low standards of living which prevailed before the adjustment program.” AAA Issues Warning To Cotton Farmers WASHINGTON, Oct. 4.—While AAA officials warned cotton farm ers today they would be able to market scarcely more than one fourth of their excess production certificates, Senator Russell ‘D. Ga.l was asking President Roose velt to order Immediate allotment of cotton acreage for 1935. Cully Cobb, chief of the AAA cot ton section, advised cotton growers not to expect a price for certifi cates corresponding “anyw'here near" >20 a bale. Russel told reporters after a talk with the President he believed an early announcement would be made of the 1935 allotments. He also urg ed the President to pay particular attention to small farmers in ‘■he distribution of the remaining 10 i per cent, cotton surplus.
