THERE is nothing known that

That is why your dentist, when

Sues Neighbor
Whose Rooster
Disturbs Sleep

Nashville, Tennis. P. Lands
asked chancery court for an injunc-
ton to restrain his neighbor, A. N.
Estes, from keeping a rooster he
charged crows from midnight to
dawn.
Lands complained it was the
second such fowl to disturb his
sleep, only the first one crowed a
little less loudly and not so often.
He added that Mrs. Lands sill .nced
the first rooster with a rifle and
paid the owner IS damage.
The new rooster, Lands protest
ed, is much worse than the first and
crows founder and more during the
night than a normal rooster and
on the night of April 7 crowed IS
times without interval"
All of which, he said, is caus-
ing the Landises loss of sleep.
The court will look into the matter.

Erosion Control
Part OF New
Farm Program

Controlling erosion, the thief Of
fertile topsoil from thousands Of
acres in North Carolina, is a pro.
minent feature of the new soil-im.
provement program.
The oil-building and conserving
crops advocated under the new
program serve to check erosion ir
several ways, said John w. Good.
man, assistant director of the State
College agricultural extension ser
vice.
While these crops are growing, he
said, their roots form a thick ma,
which holds the soil particles in
place. They also check the run-off
of rain water by impeding its flow
downhill and by increasing the ca
pacity of the land to absorb water
in large quantities.
Then after they have been plow-
ed under, the building and conserv-
ing crops add organic matter to the
soil that makes it soft and spongy.
Rain soaks into such soil and is
held for long periods.
Soil we'll filled with organic
matter also has a greater tendency
to remain in place than britty sand
or clay soils, Goodman pointed out.
When the soil absorbs large
quantities of water, he continued,
it prevents floods during heavy
rains and keeps the land from dry
ing out completely when rainfall is
scarce.
On an eight per cent slope, he
added, a field on which nothing
but corn is grown will lose Is per
cent of its rainfall by immediate
run-off and an average of 81 tons
of top soil per ARE through ero-
sion each year.
But if the field is in a good soil
building crop, it will lose less than
five per cent of its rainfall and on
ly a few hundred pounds of soil per
acre.
When corn, wheat, and clover
are grown in rotation, the average
run-off of rain water is less than
half the amount from a field kept
continually in corn, and the soil
losses are only one-seventh as much.

To Give Broadcast
On Certified Seed

The value of certified seed ii
scientific farming will be stressed
Saturday in a radio talk on the
Carolina Farm Features program by
A. d. Stuart, extension specials,
at State College.
Good results cannot be obtained
if the grower uses seed about which
he knows little or nothing. He il

be from a high-producing variety
and again, they may be from inferi-
or varieties.
For this reason Mr.. Stuart is urg-
ing farmers % plant only certified

yield at harvest time of the crop ha.
been cultivated properly.

Lime Sulphur Spray
| Controls Peach Rot

Brown rot is one of the most
common and destructive peach dis
eases in North Carolina.
Yet it can be controlled effec-
lively and economically, said Dr.
Luther Shaw. extension plant path
ologist at State College.
The first step, he said is to de-
stroy all the mumified fruit in the
orchard, both on the trees and on
the ground. Either burn them OF
bury them where they will decay.
Destruction of the mummies will
eliminate one of the main sources OF
the parasite fungus that causes the
disease.
Lime-sulphur and wetable sui
phur makes good sprays for protec-
ting peaches during the growing
season. Use II IL pounds of dry
mix lime-sulphur to so gallons OF
water, or ; pounds of wetable sui
phur to so gallons of water.
Lime-sulphur and wetable sui
phur can be purchased ready for
use, or the former may be mixed at
home in the ratio of 5 pounds of
finely ground busting sulphur to J
pounds of hydrated lime with IL
pound of calcium caseinate.
For ordinary conditions, three ap-
plications of the spray are recon-
mended. The first should be about
four weeks after the blossom petals
have been shed. Four to six weeks
later spray again. The third ap-
.plication should be about 10 days
before the fruit is due to ripen.
However, if brown rot should ap-
pear to any appreciate extent
shortly after the first application,
follow it with another spraying in
three weeks. This necessitates four
applications in all.
Sulphur dust will control rot al
most as effectively as lime-sulphur
spray, Dr. Shaw added. The dust
ing schedule is the same as the
spraying schedule.

TN addition to these projects"
Director Mask stated, Resettlement
is caring for thousands of farm
families in this region under its re-
Mobilization program and farms be-
ing acquired as rapidly as possible
for special farm tenant projects in
Tennessee and North Carolina.
"These activities and the efforts
of the Farm Debt Adjustment and
Community and Cooperative Ser
vice units of the Resettlement Or
ganization constitute a rounded,
long-range program which is de-
signed to bring lasting economic
benefits to the state and put a large
number of farmers formerly on re-
lief on a self-sustaining basis. The
program has already reached a mag
nitude in this region which wildly
answers the question. What is
Resettlement doing?'
Director Mask pointed out that
for the nation as a whole Resettle-
ment Administration is acquiring
9,2S6,000 acres for reforestation
and recreational demonstration pro-
iects and that 446, 900 farm families
are being carried on the rehabilita-

Ice Cream Recognized
AS A Wholesome Food

solids consist of high quality pro.
TENS and minerals like calcium
phosphorus, and iron.
Ices and sherberts, which are deli.
ciously refreshing during hot sum,
mer months, can be prepared with
about 20 per cent suitable fruit
juices, so per cent sugar, and the
remainder pure water or milk, de-
pending upon whether an ice or a
sherbert is desired.
Ice cream has another advan-
tage, Clevenger pointed out, in that
it satisfies the cravings for sweet:
and deserts and thus helps elimi-
nate the temptation to eat other
such foods that are not so helpful.
The easy digestibility of ice
cream, he continued, makes it a
good food for children and inva-
lids.

QUESTION: Can sileage be fed
to dairy cattle on pasture?
ANSWER: In summer or spring
feeding, sileage is used as a sup
plement to short pasture. When
the cattle are turned on pasture,
it is we'll to feed a reasonable
amount of sileage in the morning
for several days. This will pre-
vent the cows from gorging
themselves on the tender, watery
grass. If this is not done the
animals are likely to develop
scours. This trouble will natur-
ally mean a lowering in the milk
production.

QUESTION N: What fertilizer
should be used for growing an
early crop of sweet potatoes on
sandy soil?
ANSWER: "A mixture containing
3 per cent nitrogen, 8 per cent
phosphoric acid, and 8 per cent
potash is recommended. This
should be applied at the rate of
1000 to 1900 pounds to the
acre. For sandy loan soils of the
Coastal Plain where varieties
such as Nancy Hall and Porto
Rico are grown for late harvests,
1913 mixture applied at the
rate of 800 to 500 pounds an
acre will be best. Two-thirds
of the nitrogen should be secured
from inorganic sources and the
remaining from organic sources.

Farm Questions
Answered At

QUESTION: I am informed that
iodine is necessary in poultry
feeds-could you advise me about
this?
ANSWER: 1t is reputed that 10
dine has a value in feeding chick
ems, but, as yet, very little re-
search work has been done to de-
termine its value. A deficiency
of iodine leads to goiter, but NO
goiter has been reported in fowl.
Practically all poultry mashes
contain iodized salt and oyster
shells contain a certain quantity
of the iodine which probably &C
counts for the lack of goiter in
fowls.
