I act oDservea was tnat nv- y iarers
in tnat area feed beef caU.e (iry lot)
in the summer to conserve their straw
and produce manure for their farm.
Many of these farms are too small to
afford pasture area. The chief crops
raised are small grain alfalfa, clover
and timothy hay, corn, tobacco and
some Irish potatoes and tomatoes. To
bacco' is not extensively grown, just
an acre or two per iarm. lt har
vested in late September and . air
dried. The entire plant , is cut and
hung in the barn to cure. It is atrip-
pea ana maricetea aunnsr the winter.
Thirty live cents per pound is con
stdered a good price. Beef cattle or
dairy cattle are found on most farms.
Poultry production is also quite com'
mon m tnat area, v : v
"Wednesday the group visited the
Beltsville Experiment Station. The
objects of study there were the breed
ing and management of swine and
dairy cattle. The Danish Landrace
is being used quite extensively in
crossing with other breeds in an at
tempt to produce an ideal market
animal. .
In the dairy work the Red Sindhi
Bull from India is being Crossed with
Jersey cattle and a study of milk
and butter fat production is in prog
res. A new type of silo was obser
ved here. This silo is glass coated
inside and out, is sealed air tight, at
the top and is unloaded from the
bottom by a specially built unloader.
Also curing hay with a dryer was
observed
"The beef cattle work of the Belts
ville Station was observed Thursday
to their 4,300 acre farm at Front
Royal, Va. Work ' is being started
there with Hereford Angus, and
Shorthorn breeds. This phase of the
work is just getting started. They are
in the process of growing breeding
stock for their experimental work
"This proved to be a very educa
tional tour and many of those tak
ing part feel that a tour of this type
should be an annual affair."

Boll worm damage "is now' WiO'
ing up in some cotton fields' of the
county, it was reported this, week by
the County Farm Agent Weevil dam
age has increased sharply In the last
two weeks, too. However, . damage
now from weevils will not be too seri
ous because the major portfon of the
cotton crop is already in the bou ex
cept in late cotton. The cotton grow
ers mam concern now is protecting
the crop from damages of the boll
worm. According to the Sate Cot
ton Committee report, ' heavy - boll
worm ' infestation should be treated
with 10 DDT at the rate of 15 to
20 pounds per acre.
Defoliation is recommended 'on
heavy foliage 'cotton where there is
danger of boll rot or where it is de
sirable to hasten maturity lor early
nicking. Cotton can be forced to
shed the leaves early by dusting with,1
20 to 40 pounds of eyanaimd in the
dust form. ,
This material should be . applied
when the last bolls expected to mature
are at least 30 days old. The dust
can be applied by airplane or by any
other equipment suitable for dusting.
