New Short Course at College.

The North Carolina State College
of Agriculture and Engineering opens
with the usual number of new stu
dents. The loss of many of the older
students by draft. by connection with
the state guard, by commission in the
army, and by opportunity for high pay
in civil positions has reduced the
whole number by about n hundred.
The dormitories. therefore, are not all
filed For this reason an effort will
be made to secure a big enrolment in
the four-months' course for farmers
and farm boys, which will begin on
October 30th.
This course is now offered for the
first time. 1t is designed to give such
instruction as best meets the needs
of practical farmers. AS described in
the current catalogue, it is divided so
that students also can be received in
January.

Aid in Food Conservation

The greatest food show ever held in
North Carolina is what the State Fair
promises to be. Under the urge of ma.
ton and state more crops were plant
ed in the spring than ever before, and
the harvests are proving exceedingly
bounteous. Not only have crops usual
ly raised been greater and better. but
there has been a much greater diversi-
ication. The result will make itself
felt in the agricultural exhibits at the
fair.
Applications for space are almost
double what they were at the same
time last year. The number OF exhib.
creased, and all will be given an equal
show for the good premiums which
are offered. From the excellence OF
these exhibits in former years. the
people of the state have been trained
to expect an agricultural show of an
unusual nature, and the show this
year will exceed any that have gone
before.
The conservation feature of the
State Fair is being especially stress
ed by the management. This will be
particularly exempliied in the new
Woman's building where Mrs. James
McKimmon and her corps of assist
ants from over sixty of the counties CT
the state will show what can be done
in the way of preserving food by can
ming, preserving and drying. Mrs. Nc
Kimmon has made much more than a
statewide reputation on account OF
the results that she has been able to
obtain with her canning clubs in the
state, and the girls and their work
will be here to show both how and
what has been accomplished.

COWS are largely responsible, it is said,
for this poor showing in New York

may be improved greatly by better

the culls. Behind the cows lies the

farm is not properly managed, the

Completes Study Of Cost.

Returning to his regular work at
the Agricultural Experiment Station
at West Raleigh last week from
Greensboro and Winston-Salem, Mr..
Stanley Combs, of the Dairy Field
Office, completes his two years study
of the cost of producing milk on 1S
farms lear these places. 1t will be
remembered that two years ago North
Carolina was selected as representa-
tive of the Southeastern group OF
States in which a study of the cost OF
producing milk could be made. Other
stations in the division were also Sc
lected at the same time, such as 1ndi-
ana in the Western and others in the
different remaining groups. The work
is cooperative between the United
States Department of Agriculture n
the North Carolina Experiment Sta
ton.
Mr.. Combs has collected some inter-
esting and exceptionally good data
which will be written up in the form
of a report during the next three
months. When it Is published 1t 1s
expected that the findings will be OF
much value to dairymen, especially Sc
as the work has been done during the
time of the war since all feedstNtfs
have been high in price and hard to
obtain. Authorities of the station hope
to have the material in the hands OF

MANNER OF HANDLING SILAGE
When Time for Feeding Top Layer,
Which Has Nodded, Should Be
Removed-Heap Top Level.
Clemson College Bulletin.)

When the time comes for feeding
silage the top layer, which will be
found to be nodded, should be re-
moved. The nodded part usually ex-
tends for several inches below the
surface. AT least two inches of silage
should be fed each day, in order to
prevent the formation of the mold.
The top of the silage should be kept
level so as to expose the smallest sur
face possible to the air. Only enough
silage for one feeding should be put
out, as it soon dries out if not fed at
once.
