OHIO FARMER GUARDS
GOLD WITH SHOTGUN

Gallipolis, O.-Alfred Hartman is
ignoring spring oatptanting time and
other farm activities to stand guard
with a shot gun over his land.
He considers it far more valuable
than for mere crop-growing this year.
Hartman took a quart can of "pay
dirt" from his farm to a chemist, who
assayed it as containing gold. The
chen1is valued it at $11. Excitement
followed in the neighborhood, but
without major gold rush, as yet.

YOUNG PEOPLE BOOST
FAMILY cow PROGRAM

A. C. Kinney, extension dairyman
at State College, is enlisting the
help of school children to interest
their parents in the family COW pro-
gram for eastern North Carolina.
"This new way of reaching parents
is the most successful we have found
thus far" Kinney stated, "and we
hope to expand it to other counties
in the future"
The movement. was launched in
Wilson, Currituck, and Green coun-
ties, with Edegcombe next on the
schedule.
Kinney reported that he has been
addressing between 1000 and 5000
school children, All club members,
and other young people each week,
endeavoring to show them the need
for more milk in the diet.
At the close of the address, those
children who do not have cows at
home are asked to remain for a dis
cussion of the possibilities of their
raising calves. Those interested are
listed, together with the names of
their parents.
The extension specialist and the
local farm and home agents then
carry the matter to the parents. If
the parents are willing to buy heif-
er calf for the children to raise, the
agents and the specialist offer their
help in securing calves at a moderate
price.
Fright now," Kinney explained,
1--WE ere ret insisting that they buy
expensive calves Of the best breeding.
The main thing is to place at least
one calf with each family so that it
may have an adequate supply of milk
and butter in the near future.
'We find that those children who
come from homes which do not have
a family cow are, as rule, under
nourished and inferior physically to
those children that have milk in their
diet. In Wilson County, about 80 per-
J. cent of the children to whom talked
came from homes where there were
no cows"

TIMELY FARM QUESTIONS
ANSWERED AT COLLEGE

Question: What minerals are nee
essary for the laying flock?
Answer: The usual mineral feeds
are bone meal, oyster shell, or ground
limestone, salt and grit. Some miner
ais are found in small grains such as
wheat, corn and oats but the amount
in these grains is inadequate and
must be supplemented from other
sources. Bone meal supplies calcium
and phosphorus and helps build tissue
and bone. The oyster shell is fed for
it's high calcium content. Salt stimu-
lates the appetite, renders the mash
more palatable and increases the
vital processes while grit is an aid
in grinding the food. All are abso-
lutely necessary for egg production.

EUROPEAN ROADS RESOUND
TO MARCH OF SOLDIERS
HUEY LONG RUNS PRESIDENT
CLOSE SECOND AMONG NOT
ABLES PEOPLE WANT TO SEE

Washington.-Pr President Roosevelt
guides agree is first on the list of
he sightseers who come to Washing
ton for look at it's notables, but
lucy P. Long, louisiana "Kingfish,"
is close second.
Capitol and White House guards,
:axi and bus drivers approved this
ranking and most of them said, too,
hat Mrs. Roosevelt was number
1hree."
But a capital guard who comment
ed on Senator Longs crowd appeal
said in explanation: "He puts on a
how. He's a freak"
Few of those interviewed said they
lad heard recent visitors desire to
zee anyone beyond the Roosevelts and
.ongs, but a police sergeant added
even more names.
"I'd put Chief Justice Hughes
ourth," he said, Especially since the
gold cases. Jim Farley would be fifth,
probably becaue Huey's been going
'fter him, and because he's chairman
of the Democratic committee as we'll
rs postmaster-general.
"The people are interested in Sec
rotary Ickes, too. The big relief bill
would account for that. Seventh?
Well, probably Senator Borah. Carter
Glass or Vice President Garner would
be eighth. For the 10th place-oh, I
don't know. They inquire about Bob
La Toilette, Joe Robinson, Norris
and Nye in the senate, and some of
them want to see Speaker Burns in
the house."
One guide suggested the inclusion
of Justice Cardozo in the list. "The
people, who visit the Supreme court
always ask about him." he said. 81
suppose it's because he's new and a
liberal. They ask about Justice Bran
deis, too"
A taxicab driver said most Capitol
visitors inquired about Secretary
Perkins last year.
"They wanted to see the woman
cabinet MEMBER" he explained, f'but
nobody asked about her this year.
And they don't talk about the other
cabinet members, except Farley and
Ickes. They aren't interested in Hull,
Wallace, and the rest of them guys"
The driver of a sightseeing bus
commented: "They used to ask for
Gen. Hugh Johnson-but he's a back
number now"
None of those interviewed mention
ed Rexford Guy Tugwell or other
"brain trusters."

Saying she would not "come out

mote Green Valley district school and
prepared to sleep in bed she moved
there.
A deputy sheriff planned to serve
a court writ the following day and to

Sam Taught, chairman of the
school trustees, said Mrs. Woodley's

expired February / but that when
Miss Opal Lee sought to take charge
in the reorganized district, Mrs.
Woodley pulled her hair and threw
her belongings into the school yard.
Mrs. Woodley, contending she was
engaged for the entire school year,
moved her bed, cookery equipment
and supplies into the building and
barricaded herself against Miss Lee.

Army Day Celebration Finds u. s.
Army Remembering the
Year of 1918

Following on the defiant announce
ment of the German Chancellor, Herr
Hitler, that the German nation would
disregard all previous treaties and re-
arm, highways to the German from
tier were alive with troops the first
part of the week, streaming to new
posts along the border in Frances
latest answer to the threat of war.
simultaneously with the moving up
of three army corps, the supreme
council of national defense recon-
mended that the last half of the pres
ent conscript class totaling 10000
men be retained in service instead of
being demobilized this month.
The government plans to bring
Frances military strength up to
$4,000 men by April %, when new
recruits report for duty.
Premier Benito Mussolini, of Italy,
YVES reported to have sent Great
Brit in a four-point program for
united action by Britain, France and
Italy against German rearmament.
Austria, and Russia are also look
ing to their equipment for war, and
the United States heard drums of war
and talks of peace on April 6 when
Army day celebrations were held on
the 18th anniversary of American
entry into the World war.
Fifty thousand marching men end
the looming of a squadron of bonn
bardment and pursuit planes demon
strated to Washington the readiness
of the army to defend the nation.
Elsewhere over the country, other
thousands of soldiers put on parade
the freshly-polished tools. which they
would carry to war.
The keynote for the Army day cele
bration was sounded by Secretary
Dern in message from Miami
where he is on vacation.
-"It is not my conception of Army
day that it's purpose is to glorify
war;" he said. Rather, it is my view
that the intent of army day is to
focus attention on theH constitutional
mandate that one Of the promary du-
ties of government is to provide for
the common defense.
"The army, as one Of the branches
of government devoted to common
defense, utilizes Army day to place
von public inspection throughout the
country the various services it in
cludes and to reflect as nearly as may
be the extent to which our govern
ment is observing the constitutional
mandate relating to common de-
fense"
Only three of those Sc who voted
against the war declaration Is years
ago are still in congress. They united
today in saying they would vote the
same way if another such resolution
was before them.

Question: How soon can grain
and hay be fed the young calf?

Question: How soon can grain
and hay be fed the young calf?
Answer: Small amounts of both
grain and hay should be offered the
calf when about two weeks of age.
No more grain, however, should be
fed at any time than the calf will
clean up. The feeding of hay should
be sparing at first and gradually in
creased as the calf becomes accustom-
ed to the feed. Use a clean bright
mixed hay for the first three or four
weeks. After that a good leafy alfalfa
hay is best but any good legume hay
may be used. The kind and mixtures
of grain for the growing calf are
given in Extension Circular No. 1T
and copies may be had free upon ap-
plication to the Agricultural Editor
at State College.

: GLADIOLUS

From a landscape point Of view,
gladioluses is not so valuable, be-
cause of it's "spikiness," but if plant
ed in clumps of from five to dozen,
three inches apar and five deep, so
as not to need stalking, they can be
used advantageously in the mixed
border. Some plant of the spread
ing" type should be used with them,
such as gypsophila, baby's breath, or
any of the low-growing ANIMALS of
contrasting or complimentary colors.
They are good with perennial phlox.
Try pale yellow and soft pink gladio-
lus with white phlox (P. Miss Lin
gard, for early, and P. Mrs. Jenkins,
for mid-season bloom). Use ageratum
or other blue annual with this, if
you are fond of a French combina-
ton of color.
First of all it is necessary to have
good stock. Small, shrivelled or scab-
by corms, (bulbs) such as can be
bought for few cents, are hardly
worth the effort when splendid hig
ones, clean and bright skinned, can
be had from a reliable dealer for lit
tie more. There are two mainn kinds
of gladiolus, the upright, rather stiff
end very full stalked, much admired
ty florists and growers, and the more
delicate and dainty "Primulinus Hy-
brid," which is gotten from seeds
easily. This is the most graceful for
cut flowers in the home.
Any good garden soil is suitable,
such as would give gold potatoes or
carrots, deeply dug, loose, and well
MANFRED the year before. Never use
fresh manure for gladioluses. They
like old rotted compost, placed we'll
down in the bed where the roots, but
not the corms, will touch it. Mix bone
meal in the top layer of soil, hand
full to a bushel. A new location each
year is best, so that insects and dis
eases, such as thrips and soab, are
left behind. They can be returned to
the same bed after three years,
however.
Full sunshine and moisture up to
blooming time is what they need.
They will grow, and bloom, but not
well, in half shade. Thorough and
frequent cultivation will help to hold
what moisture is in the ground, and
a good soaking, once a week after
the bud comes, will make larger and
deeper colored flowers. Commercial
growers recommend a tablespoonful
of nitrate of soda in two gallons of
water, applied once a week after color
shows. Do not let this be Immediately
around the stem.
Plant five inches deep in light soils
and two or three in heavy. If in rows,
put 4-8 inches apart, and make the
rows eighteen inches apart. Stalking
can be avoided, if planted deep; but
if preferred, very light support,
painted leaf green and tied inconspi-
cuously with soft string or raffia can
be used. Gladioluses are so stiff any
way, that when tied tight to a big
stake with cloth, they are real detri-
ment to any garden.
Cut the spikes with sharp knife
when the first three buds open and
the rest will open successfully in
water, if the old blooms are taken off
and half-inch cut from the steam
every day. Always cut on a slant,
leaving three or four leaves on the
stalk to ripen and thus assure the
formation of next years flower bud in

Question: Is sweet sorghum cane
suitable for silage?
Answer: While corn is more used
than any other crop the sweet sorg-
hum canes are being used extensive
ly. The cane is only about rs percent
as efficient for milk production as
corn but the extra tonnage Of silage
from the cane more than offsets the
lower feeding value. Corn, however,
has the advantage in being easy to
harvest. The sorghums grow tall and
produce large yields, but they blow
down and tangle easily, mawing them
hard to harvest.
