TIM FL Y FAR M TOPICS
 by the County Agricultural Agent

Many farmers are complaining about the high price of feed and l do not blame them. There is a way that the dairyman or poultryman can re- duce his cost of feed for if we study prices we find that feeds costing the most are those high in protein these are namely, alfalfa, clover and soy beans Alfalfa is probably one of the hardest to grow, yet it is prob ably the best of the three, clover be- ing a close second.
 Alfalfa requires a piece of well drained land with plenty of plant food. It also requires a soil of neu- tral acidity The amount of lime needed can be determined by asking your County Agent to test your soil. Where lime is Co be applied it should be put on from four Go six months be- fore seeding.
 A we'll prepared seed is also very essential. The time of planting re- commended is ei'2 in Spring. with a cover crop; or .I summer, seeded alone. Where summer seeding is practiced it should be planted pre- ferably in the last two weeks of July or not later than the 18th of August. This is necessary in order to with stand the winter.
 Where a man has not grown alfal- fa before l would recommend that rather than seed alfalfa alone he use the following mixture:
 Three pounds red clover, three pounds alsike clover. six pounds alfal- ia. three pounds timothy, thus in case he leaves out some of the important points in the growing of alfalfa he still has a stand of a good high pro- tein roughage. For anyone who wish
Putnam patriot., 1929-05-29

es to seed alfalfa alone from fifteen to eighteen pounds of alfalfa seed is the recommended amount.
 When seeding with d cover crop three-fcurths bushels of oats per acre is plenty as a larger amount needed o.ten smothers out some of the alfal- ia or clover. Where cover crop is used generally it should be cut early for hay in order to give the alfalfa a chance Co develop.
 For further information you may inquire of your County Agricultural Agent who will gladly give you any details which may have been left out in this article.

The largest amount of bank stock
trading has been in Riggs National,
which opened the year at $50 and last
sold at 571. So far this year 1888
shares have changed hands. Other
active bank stocks have been Federal
American, American Security Sz Trust
and Merchants Bank & Trust Co., Bank
of Bethesda stock, which is listed on
the local board has also seen an ex-
change of 239 shares so far this year.
Many High Priced Bank Stocks.
Washington has kept up with the
procession in having many high priced
bank stocks. Riggs selling at 571 Is
the highest priced stock on the list.
next, while the last sale in Washing

Security Savings & Commercial last

A glance at the exchange sheet shows
that local bonds have sold off or 5
points during the first six months of
1929. The volume of trading has held
up well IN spite of the general dullness
in the bond markets all over the coun-
try. Holders are hoping that the pre-
dictionS OF a turn in the bond market
will come true and that the last half
year VIII ind local issues selling back
where they were in January
There have been two outstanding
features in the local market so far this
year, the drop in Capital Traction stock
and the rise in Washington Gas Light.
Thousands of holders of Capital Trac-
tion stock watched that stock sell down
to the lowest mark during the present
century. The weakness in the stock
was generally ascribed to the tenn
porary failure of the street car line
merger plans. Prospects for merger
we're so bright at one time that many
observers felt that Capital Traction was
due for a sharp advance.
The bidding for control of the
Washington Gas Light Co. boosted that
stock to 1851, new all-time high.
The low for the present year in this is

vance aroused unusual interest In the
