make the transatlantic flight with
Clarence Chamberlin, in a formal
statement here last night declared
that 1.-The sloppy navigation of the
Chamberlin-Levi flight to Germany
had done more to point out to the
public the really excellent job Col:
Lindbergh did than anything could
have done"
Bertaud declared he was not sore
because of his differences with Charles
Levine, sponsor of the flight, which
prevented his making the trip.
The air mail pilot declared the
fact they went a few hundred miles
farther than Lindbergh does not
mean much of anything. And whereas
Lindbergh did a splendid job of navi-
eating, they wobbled all over Europe"
Bertaud said when Lindbergh land

transatlantic flight. He believed the
flight should have been delayed until

Give Pig Some Protein
to Balance Corn Ration

Many farmers have more trouble in
successfully growing fall pigs than
they do with spring pigs
According to the New Jersey State
College Of Agriculture, this Is gen.
orally due either to parasites or to
certain deficiencies in the ration. A
large percentage of the winter ration
generally consists of corn, and this
feed supplies the nutrients needed for
fattening, but must be balanced by
some protein feed II proper gains are
to be made. II skimmilk or butter
milk is available 1t is unexcelled as
hog feed to supply the necessary
protein to balance the corn.
If neither of these Is to be had, a
mixture consisting Of two parts OF
tankage, one part Of linseed oil meal,
and one part Of alfalfa meal Is good
advises w. G. Shelley, assistant ami
NAL husbandman at the college This
mixture has given excellent results
In the Middle West. It not only meets
the protein requirement, but the al
falfa meal supplies a vitamin which
is necessary for growth.

1t pays to keep cherry trees from

When corn is rs cents per bushel
farmers can afford to pay as high as
$27 to $50 ton for shorts to feed to

Sows that will produce filters next
spring should have plenty of exercise.
They should be in good flesh but not
too fat at narrowing time.
Put alfalfa or clover hay in an open

Old apple trees may be pruned

Or scaffold limbs should be removed

Everything to Be Said
for Pushing Pig Along

There is everything to be said for
pushing a pig to quick maturity. A
point is reached early In Its existence
when more meal is required to pro-
duce pound Of flesh. The pig, like all
other growing or producing animals,
requires maintenance ration that
cannot be used for growth or produc-
ton, and the longer it lives the more
will 1t absorb in maintenance-and at
tendance; If 1t is allowed to grow In
a so-calied store condition it will have
exceeded the most salable size by the
time it. is fit for slaughter; and lastly

Feeding Hens Legume Hay
Favored Plan in Winter

Legume hay, either cut In one-half
inch lengths or left In its natural form
placed in a wire basket or box may
be fed to laying hens during winter
as a substitute for succulent green
feed. The second and third cuttings
of alfalfa are best for these carry
the most vitamins and proteins be-
cause they have higher percentage Of
leaves, according to the New York
State College Of Agriculture at ithaca,
N. Y.
Quoting the Ohio experiment sta
Ition, the college says that, from No
'vember to May, as good results were
obtained from laying pullets confined
indoors and fed legume hay as from
those having access to an outside
range Of blue grass.
The hay should be carefully cured
to preserve the green color for the
valuable properties Of the plant seem
to be linked with the color. Alfalfa
and clover leaf shatterings are often
obtainable when these hays are fed
to other animals.
The Ohio experiment station reports
that no benefits were derived from
ordinary alfalfa meal mixed in the
mash at rate Of per cent by
weight. Whether the recent product,
alfalfa leaf meal, will prove valuable
like the hay, remains to be determined.
Another good way to feed the le-
gume hay Is to tie it In bundle and
suspend 1t from the ceiling within
easy reach of the birds. The depart
ment says IT is surprising how the
birds relish the hay and the quantity
they will eat.

Farm Forest Large
Labor-Saving Crop
Within the Reach of Every
Farmer Without Outlay.

Reducing labor costs increases prof
its in any business and most progress
sive business men are constantly on
search for labor-saving systems.
Farmers do this by installing labor
saving machinery but there Is still
another way which has been largely
overlooked and this lies in giving more
attention to labor savlng crops.
THE farm forest is one of the
great labor-saving crops for North
Carolina farmers says r. w. Graeber,
extension forester This crop Is with
in the reach of every farmer without
great outlay of money If he win
only cooperate with nature and fol-
low the system which nature so plain
ly suggests"
Mr.. Graeher states that no special
soil preparation such as blowing and
narrowing is needed for n crop Of
pines, oaks or poplars No seed Is
needed IL few seed trees are left
in place. No fertilizer Is needed be-
cause nature maintains the fertility
of the forest soil through the annual
fall of leaves and twigs. All that is
necessary is TO keep out destructive
forest fires. When the fires are kept
out, heavy blanket of leaf litter
prevents weed growth and helps to
hold good supply OF moisture II Is
in the harvest alone with n timber
crop that labor of man is required.
Mature has provided fine conditions
for tree growth in North Carolina"
says Mr. Graeber "Good soil, ample
rainfall and long growing season
will permit any farm woodland to
produce an annual growth Of oiie-half
to one cord Of wood per acre, while
many areas of pines are producing
two cords and more an acre each year.
Where farmer does not cut more
than the annual growth of his timber,
a self-perpetuating, labor-saving crop
Is made an actual reality"
1t is net necessary to spare the
AK but 1t Is necessary to so use the
AK that the best tree specimens have
an opportunity to contribute their
share to an unendlng crop, states Mr..
Graeber.
