N. C. ' 1 February Is Time To Check Pasture ? . ? :'T '' i '".'/ft ? ? February Is a good time to check up on pastures a^d take whatever ?teps are necessary to make them produce good graz ing this year, s&ys S .H. Dobson, pasture specialist for the State College Extension Service. ? First of all, says Dobson, if Ladino clover pastures haven't already been topdressed this should be done right away. If the pasture was properly limed and treated with phosphate at seeding time, use 400 to 600 -pounds of 0-9-27 or 0-10-20 per acre. Use lower rates on red soils of the Piedmont and mount ains, and higher rates and high er analysis on Coastal Plain and Tidewater soils. Dobson says 0-14-J4 is good, especially where extra .phos phate hasn't been applied and where part of the pasture fertil izer comes from the manure. Re member that 0-14-14 contain* only a little more than halt as muc^i potash per 100 pounds as does 0-9-27. Therefore the rates of 0-14-14 must be higher. Try to make that last figure add up to' at least 135 pounds in the Coastal Plain and -Tidewater; at least 100 pounds in the lower Piedmont; and. to 75 pounds in the upper Piedmont and mount ains. Rerpember, these are the lowest amounts you Should use! Give you? pastures a break and let them get .a good growth before heavy grazing begins. Close grazing in late winter and early spring often means more weeds In summer. As for new pastures, keep cattle oCf them un til .they are established. Farmers who have small grain mixtures and pure stands of tall fescue should apply nit rogen topdresslng as near the middle of February as possible. Use 30 to 50 pounds of N (pure nitrogen) per acre. February is a good* time to seed lespedeza for summer sup plementary feed. Most of our fruit trees and garden shrubs are subject to at tack by scale Insects. What is a scale insect? It is a tiny sucking Insect that attaches Itsr'* to the twigs, branches, and i 1 fruit and leave plants, and tj.en cov ers itself With a tough protect ive material which gives it the name of scale insect. They ntul tlply so rapidly that they can suck the life out of a fruit tree or shrub and kill it in two or three yearsti Peach trees are es pecially susceptible to damage by Scale insects. Because of the tough protect ive covering it is necessary to use a spray which will penetrate the | scale covering and come into 'contact with the insect to. kill if. It takes a strong. spray to do this and, therefore, such con trols must be used during the dormant season when the tree is not in active growth and will hot be damaged by the spray. The twp types of sprays com monly i|sed are the oil sprays and concentrated -solutions of lime-sulphur is "smelly'.' and dis agreeable but is especially val uable as a spray for peach trees at this time of- the year be wmmmmsmm, i cause It 1? also fugicide and con trols peach-leaf curl. For broad leaved evergreen shrubs, mls cible oils such as ;"Volk". or "Scaleclde" may be used accord, ing to the manufacturers^ di rections and these are obtain able in convinient (juanities at local seed stores. Jtoless scale insects are pres ent, it is unnecessary to spray for them in the home garden. Ask your county agent or vo cational teacher to inspect your trees and shrubs for scales. These dormant sprays should not be used after growth appears in the spring. Oil sprays must not- be applied during freezing temperatures. For spraying orchards of any size, write to the Publications Department, N. C. State College, Raleigh, for bulletins on, "Peach Spray Information" and "Apple Spray Information." Of the dozen major rivers in North Carolina only one?the Cape Fear? flows directly into the Atlantic in the Tarheel State. Others empty into large sounds shielded from the ocean by the long string of islands known as j the Outer Hanks. CURTAIN BODS SOUGHT When curtain rods are rough and snag the breading of your curtains, home economists sug gest dipping one end of rod In melted paraffin and allowing it to harden. Then slip that end of the rod through the curtains when you are ready to hang them. Or you can wrap one end of the rod with scotch tape so the jagged edge of the end of the rod won't tear the curtain. DON'T GUESS OH SODA To change a recipe from soda and sour milk to baking powder and sweet milk, keep this rule in mind: One half teaspoon of soda equals two teaspoons of baking powder as soda specified, and re troop 12. Reading: James Allen Pressly, troop 1. Safety: Hugh Wayne Mayhue, troop 4. Woodturnlng: OHn Souther land, Edward Ledford, and Don Wright, troop 12, and Hugh Wayne Mayhue, troop 4; place sour mHk with tf?e same amount of sweet milk. TRAVEL BE MINDERS When you pack your bag for a trip tuck in a su6de brush if Kur shoes are suede- -scotch tape ' a quick mend in a ripped hem a few coat hangara.-a purse size whisk -broom, a miniature mend ing kit, and a traveling iron. That old trick , of-' steaming wrinkles out over the bathtub is good to remember, too. BEAUTY AIDS FOR THE HANDS These suggestions will help give your hands that well-groom ed look: Wash often with warm water and soap, rinse thoroughly and dry. Use lemon for bleaching hands, pumice for stain removal, lotion or cream for softening and whitening. Massage hands for flexibility and exercise them for grace and poise. Rubber or can vas gloves will protect your hands when you have dirty work to do. ?
