V 1 ' n ""J . . 3 t'.zatar district these winter j coes not seem uie same wun-1 .; t.a razamulns who In the past ULtortained the passing throngs in I verious ways. Their specialty was kanclng, and the dancers for the ' most part had exceedingly nimble I feet. They were , up on the latest las well, and Charleston experts in turn gave place to those who did .I truckia. Sometimes there were har- ' tnAtitm m immbI mrlniai Hut ftlt&w 'UWUVH W ' TWBU BWJUWMH too had to be nimble of foot. Be tween the gamins and the cops, there was constant warfare. An es sential member of the troupe was i the lookout and when he gave the J signal the youngsters were gone with the wind. But they 'never de- i parted, no matter their hurry, with- out gathering nickels and dimes that had been tossed their way, since -x i those nickels and dimes were the ,! objective of their efforts. f . Colorful and, picturesque were ; those youngsters , who kept late ,hours and danced among .the bright J ! lights, They were also tough as I tough as case-hardened steel. That - is the reason why they no longer 'congregate about the theaters, be fore and. after the show and between ' !the acts. That is why also that mid . ; town cops get less exercise. The authorities figured that it would be , 'better lor the urchins if they were '.chased once and for all. So instead ,of merely making gestures, the pc . lice made arrests. Parents were , brought into court and made to see why their children should be in their homes and not on Broadway 'late at night. So now the youngsters ' 'who danced and sang have dlsap ' peered. So have most of those with r tearful faces and soiled newspapers. -J ; ' '''' Not so amusing, colorful or pa thetic were those car watchers who infested the theater district in such ' numbers that a motorist jcouldnt find a space that wasn't junder their control. Various loca jtions were taken over by gangs who 'had" ousted other gangs and the 'motorist who failed to tip lived to regret it. In fact, conditions reached such a stage that some of the guide books advised paying a fee rather 'than suffer damaged car bodies and ; tires as well as the removal of everything that could be detached. , Matters reached a climax when a, 'motorist who tipped only a dime was eaulted. Then the police look nd now-there are ho more Vs. In their place is an Niich forbids them to business. V have also been eliminv e activity. The ew Tax ,jockeys and men who 2 i swung ony nning boards of t jtaxicabs aw hen they- stopped, " ; 'opened doorVand stood byv waiting ' ; (for tips for the' alleged service. The practice was not only annoying ' , ? ;but dangerous. Doormen are nqt 'forbidden by. the new ordinance to , 'perform such services, and thus ; jthey get a break on rainy nights. I ,They hustle out and bring up cabs . , and acquire tips. That cabs would ; arrive anyway never seems to oc- cur to the time-harried New Yorker. N'rt Public porters are still licensed ', i by The City. They station them- ! selves in various places and pounce on th haoeno of trnvlr. Whpn that happens,' the traveler has .to l pay two tips since the public porter - is not allowed In the railroad sta ; tion, toting in terminals being a ' red cap monopoly. Public porters, ; f ; in the past, have acted as steerers : - for various minor hotels, often talk ling strangers out of going to places J where they had intended with con . sequent loss towthose who yielded. - . . 1 'v ' ;- v::' The return of prosperity has caused ' , the return of the hat grabber.

Timely Questions On Farm Answered Question: What can I use for natural skim-milk in feeding a young calf? Answer: Fresh powdered skim- milk, when properly mixed with' water makes a good substitute for the natural skim-milk. It can also be used in the dry. form in calf meal mixtures. One pound of powdered skim-milk to nine pounds of water will give a good mixture. Slake a paste by first mixing the skim-milk powder with a small quantity of water and then add to this paste a sufficient quantity of water to give the nrooer solution. The water should be heated to a temperature of; 100 degrees before mixing and the reconstructed milk fed immediately. The calf should be changed from whole milk to the reconstructed milk the saftie as when natural skim-milk is used. Question: How much corn should I plant to provide silage for ten dairy cows? . Answer: This depends upon the fertifits' of the soil and the breed of the" cows. On the average corn will) yield one ton of silage to each five bushels of grain produced and the required avreage must be estimated on this basis. The average Jersey or Guernsey cow will consume Irom au to so pouDoa oi snag a any wnicn will mean that each animal should fit a.1 a i : l l J be provided from three to three and one-half tons for a six months feed ing period. For your herd of ten cows about 33 tons will be needed and to get this you should seed enough acreage v to produce approximately 166 bushels of grain. ' Question: Is it safe practise to cross breed poultry? Answer: There are several angles to this question. A first generation cross, if carefully planned, should give a higher livability and an in creased egg production over that of the parent line. In broilers, there should be produced a hybrid vigor which makes for lower mortality and rapid, growth. After- this first cross any additional cross breeding; . does pot do so well and, if practised year aiter year, uie aesir.oie qualities oi the stock is gradually lost. Plant Soybeans And Cowpeas During May Soybeans, "the crop with a future," produce a better yield of hay and seed if planted in May rather than in June or July. The many uses that are being de veloped for this crop are fast making it a valuable source of cash income, to say nothing of its value in soil building, said E. C. Blair, extension agronomist at State College. Growers who wish to have a good average of . soil-conserving crops , to qualify for payments under the soil- conservation program will ' find soy beans well adapted for this purpose, he added.- 1, For plowing or disking under soy beans: velvet beans,' or cowpeas as jrreen manure after thev have attain ed', a normal growth of at least two monthsjyment8 wUI he-iWaie" at the .rate ot sz an acre - If they 'are lefif ;ia(-;:tbelahdrih ;$apfafimi. be ; $L an.ac'w.ivf: rf-j?i iiBlai alsopihtd, 6utv tiat fian acres will be paid for : pfahting; ctci talarjej which )s considered the best tegume, pat. can be grown in sandy Koil 'areas1 s6f 'thisVgtatWi i-ifii J' ?5Velve beans should be 'planted as early in May as possiblei while cro talaria; should- be Sown during the lafAei; iarllof rHki month, v (Cowpeas raayf be sown ,r at x about. the-'' same time1 as soybeans.

The State; S-VTV'' "Hoppalong Cassidy Returns" which Nitrate Of Soda Is Fatal To Livestock Sodium nitrate in fertilizer is srood for srrass but bad for live- stock. Dr. C. D. Grinnells, veterinarian at the N. C. Agricultural Experiment I Stotinn ronrnH that nitrate often causes a rapid, fatal inflamation of the stomach. Before turning stock into a pas ture where nitrate has been applied, he said, be sure that enough rain has fallen to wash the nitrate off the grass and down into the soil. He also cautioned against leaving bags of nitrate around where domes tic animals can get at it. rermanent FaStUreS Now Ready To Graze Beef cattle should be turned onto permanent pastures in May, for by this time the grass is in good con dition for grazing, said Earl H. iHos tetler. professor of animal husban dry at State College. While on the summer range, he continued, the animals will require less care and willneed no feed othei than good pasturage, but they should be inspected regularly and given plenty of salt, The bull should be turned with the beef cattle herd about the first oi ; May tnat next year's crop will be early and umform professor Hos- i . - . tetler added. "And remember,' a purebred bull improves the value of the calves and in the long run is worth more than he costs," he says- Classified LEGALS LOST: PERQUIMAiNS HIGH School Class Ring.
