CoWPEAsA AN ExCEI.LEKT HAY
If CROP is PROPERLY CURED

| ifScnt at the right stage Of growtt
and properly handled. cowpcas make
excellent hay of high feeding value
The Bureau of Plant industry of the
United States Department of Agri.
culture shows In Farmers Bulletin
1153, issued recently, that this hay is
as valuable as that from other le-
.guminous crops. and is reIished by
all farm animals.
7 Throughout the Southern states
cowpea hay has been extensively
used and is the main dependence for
hay on the plantations. Well-cured
cowpea hay has proved satisfactory
for work stock and tor beef or milk
production, and has given good re-
suits when fed to poultry, hogs, and
sheep. 1t is said to be better suited
for feeding cows than horses Partly
on this account and partly because
of the difficulty often experienced in
properly curing the large growth of
SoSShiSHt NlIeS, ana IT'S COarSSneSS
and uneyenness in quality, cowpea
hay has little standing in the city
markets. When it becomes generally
recognized that this hay is source
of protein which can be raised on
the farm, the quality of high-priced
concentrated feeds purchased for
young animals or dairy cows will be
very materially reduced
AS a, rule, cowpeas should not be
cut for hay before the pods begin to
turn yellow. The best quality is pro-
'duced and the hay cures more read
lily If the vines are cut when most of
the pods are full grown and a large
number of them are mature. If cut
before this stage the vines are watery
and difficult to cure. while If left too
late before cutting there will be an
unnecessary loss Of leaves in hand
ling and the stems will be tough and
woody.

Old Time Harmony
Heard; Tuskegee Institute
Sexteete Sings

A sexteete from Tuskegee Colored
Institute was unexpectedly able to
give a concert in Wolf Hall, Monday
afternoon. The recital was a real
treat for all who heard it, and al
though not advertised in advance,
was we'll attended. The audience was
more than appreciative Of the excel
lent harmony and voices of the SEX
tette, and of the interpretative read
ings given.
The sextette gave several negro
spirituals and familiar plantation
melodies. Among the numbers were,
"Steal Away to Jesus" "You Bear't
in Mind" "Old Kentucky Home," and
"Bohunkus," which was sung in imi-
tation of the negro method of COM
posing songs-the leader or composer
giving line or two at time for the
chorus to sing; "Swing Low Sweet
Chariot" was sung by request.
A representative from Tuskegee
gave several readings from Paul
Laurence Dunbar's poems, when de
Cone Pone's Hot" and "Gettin' Up in

basis of July prices to half cent over
for shipment by July 29. Crop news
was mixed but all advices agreed that
the northwest situation is critical. and
good rains are needed to save the
crop. Showers are predicted for the
three northwest states, but will have
to be general to be of any importance.
One factor which has been overlook
ed to a large extent is the European
crop outlook which is by no means fa-
vorable, and suggests that the inn
port requirements next year will be
nearly as large as in the year just
closing, this means a decidedly strong
situation in this country, ultimately,
and although the marketing of the
new crop and the lack of buying pow
er may have a tendency to bring about
declines from time to time, the gen
eral tendency of prices is very likely
to be upward.

employee Of the st. Johns Lumber Co.
for the past nine years:
Y was just about all in when /
started taking Tanlac and knew I had
to get better right away or give up my
job. i didn't know that 1t was to get
hungry and hardly ate enough to keep
going. l felt weak, sluggish and
drowsy, and was so tired out all the
time my bones seemed to ache to the
marrow. / was 50 shaky and trembly
at times I couldn't lift a glass of water
TO my mouth without spilling it, and
my sleep was so restless / felt worse
mornings than when / went to bed
rheumatism got in my arms and made
my elbows so stiff I could hardly bend
them.
"Tanlac soon had me eating like a
wolf and enjoying every mouthful and
/ wasn't long in putting on twelve
pounds in weight. The nervousness
soon left me, my sleep became sound
and refreshing, the rheumatism went
away completely and | have kept in
the best of condition ever since. I pin
my faith to Tanlac; it's the greatest
medicine ever heard Of"
