Question: Can silage be fed to
dairy cattle on pactI1ro9
SAYS SCREW WORM is
FATAL TO LIVESTOCK

Farmers along the southern border
of North Carolina are being warned
to look out for screw worm infesta-
tionS of their livestock when the
weather gets warmer.
+ Screw fly maggots, a source of
much trouble in States farther
south, appeared in a number of
southern North Carolina counties
last summer, said L. I. Case, animal
husbandman at State College.
The maggots are Matched from
eggs laid in wounds or scratches in
the skin of farm animals by the
screw fly. If the wounds are not
treated, and the maggots killed, the
animals often die in a short time.
Unlike blow fly maggots, which
feed on dead tissue, screw fly mag
gots burrow into the living tissue.
Wounds infested with screw worms
give off bloody discharge. Blow fly
maggots do not cause bleeding.
In infested localities, farmers
should not ear-mark, castrate, or de-
horn cattle in warm weather except
when absolutely necessary, Case
warned. If it is necessary, be sure to
apply pine tar oil to the wounds at
once, and every day until they are
healed.
Examine the animals frequently
for scratches or other wounds, which
should be treated with pine tax oil.
Remove from barns, lots, and pas
lures all nails, wire, broken boards,
or other objects that may cause flesh
or skin wounds.
Any animal found infested with
screw worms should be treated i'm
mediately. Instructions for the treat
ment may be obtained by writing L.
I. Case, animal husbandry depart
ment, N. G.. State College.

Funds Included to Take Care of
Work Relief; Roosevelt
i'm Charge

The senate by a So to IA vote
Monday night passed the $2,428, OOO,-
900 relief and deficiency bill. In do
ing so it rode down Republican at
tempts to shift the administration Of
relief back to the States and to block
the Florida ship canal.
AS it went back to the House fol
action on Senate amendments, the
bill carried added items that made
it one of the biggest supply measures
in peace-time history. Eleventh hour
items were added rapidly just before
the vote was taken, running the
total of the measure up to above
$2,428, 100000.
The measure included 81, 425, 900,
900 to be placed at the disposal Of
the President for continuing the
work relief program.
The vote followed long day of
heated debate, which was climaxed
by a brief skirmish over an effort
by Senator Vandenberg, Michigan
Republican, to return relief to the
States with the Federal government
paying rs per cent of the cost. The
effort was defeated by vote of Sc
to IA, the noes coming from Demo-
Gratis.
The deficiency bill encountered
new delay at the Capitol Tuesday,
when a House Republican objected
to the procedure proposed for re-
conciling Senate and House differ
ences in conference.
Senator Hastings, Delaware Re-
publican, in his last speech before
retiring from the Senate, attacked
pending plans for appropriating ST.
AIS, 100000 to President Roosevelt
for next years work relief program,
warning the Senate that lump sum

Blair, ''but the head Of government

TIMELY FARM QUESTIONS
ANSWERED AT COLLEGE

Question: What is the cause of i'm
pacted and sour crops in poultry?
Answer: When this condition ap-
pears suddenly and large number
of birds are affected the cause is usu-
ally due to spoiled or poisonous feed
All vessels should be carefully clean
ed and the feed examined to see
that it is not spoiled or sour. If only
one bird is affected, the condition is
generally caused by a weakened
condition Of the muscles of the up
per digestive tract. In the latter case
the bird should be destroyed as
there is no way to correct this fun
damental weakness.
Question: Will a cash tenant re-
ceive all soil-conserving and soil
building payments?
Answer: A cash tenant, under the
soil conservation program, is CLASH
fed as the "owner," and as such
will receive all the soil-conServing
payments. The soil-building pay
ments will be made to the producer
who incurred the expense with ref
erence to the soil-building crops or
practices. Any fixed commodity pay
ment made as rent is also classified
as cash rental and the tenant pay
ing rent with a definite amount of
any commodity is entitled to all
benefits of soil-conserving payments.
Question: How much corn should
I plant to provide silage for my
dairy herd next winter?
Answer: This, of course, depends
upon the productivity of the land
and the number of mature animals
in the herd. The average Jersey or
Guernsey cow will consume from 80
to 35 pounds of silage a day and
about three and one-half tons should
be provided for the six months peri
cd. On an average corn will yield
one ton of silage to each five bushels
Of grain and the necessary planting
can be computed by getting the
number of tons required for the herd
and then multiply this by five. Di-
vide the answer by the average corn
yield on the farm for the number
of acres that should be seed for
Silage.

Question: How long after males
have been removed from the poul-
try flock will fertile eggs be pro-
duced?
! Answer: In exceptional cases. fer
tility has been known to persist for
a period of four weeks. In general,
however, the bulk of eggs are infer
tile in from two to three weeks after
the males have been removed.

a period of four weeks In general,

tile in from two to three weeks after
the males have been removed.
Question: What are the soil-deplet-
ing crops which can be replaced
with soil-conserving or soil-building
crops to qualify for grants under the
new farm program?
Answer: The soil depicting crops
are as follows: corn, cotton, tobacco,
Irish potatoes, sweet potatoes, rice,
sugarcane, sugar beets, cultivated
sun-fiowers, commercial truck and
canning crops including melons and
strawberries, peanuts when harvest
ed as nuts, grain sorghums and
sweet Sorphums, small grains when
harvested or grain or when seeded
alone and harvested for hay.
Question: am informed that 10
dine is necessary in poultry feeds
could you advise me about this?
Answer: It is reputed that iodine
has value in feeding chickens, but,
as yet, very little research work has
been done to determine it's 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 shell
contain certain quantity of the
iodine which probably accounts for
the lack of goiter in fowl.
Question: Can silage be fed to
dairy cattle on pasture?
Answer: In summer or spring
feeding, silage is used as a supple
ment to short pasture. When the cat
tie are turned on pasture, it is well
to feed reasonable amount of sill
age in the morning for several days.
This will prevent 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 naturally mean a
lowering in the milk production.

 Joe's did. In the twelfth round, under a blow no more punishing than 50 he had absorbed earlier in the fight, he fell backwards, hands outspread to break his fall. As the count reached eight he rolled on his side and, with his eyes wide open, lay there as the referee bawl- ed "eight-uh, 1line-uh, ten-uhi" don't mean to say that Louis was yellow, and quit. Because that's not true. He took tremendous punishment before he yielded. His courage simply ran out. He started with lot, else be wouldn't have lasted 12 rounds. The only trouble (from Joe's anglc) was that the German started with little bit more.

CARDS WITH DIZZY
 TAKE OVER GIANTS

New York, June 20.-(UP)-New York Giant pennant stock ebbed to It's lowest level today and the St. Louis Cardinals inimitable Dizzy Dean was firmly established as Giant Public Enemy No. 1.
 Tn his third start against the Giants this season, Dizzy toyed with the Terry men yesterday to win his 18th victory of fthe season, 2 to s. Tn St. Louis last trip the Giants bowed to Dizzy on Friday and again on Sunday when Dizzy insisted on taking brother Paul's turn in the box because the latter had a sore arm.
 "When 1t comes time for Q Dean to pitch, Q Dean is gonna pitch,' Dizzy told Manager Frankie Frisch, stalking to the mound with only 24 hours rest.
 Home runs by Stuart Martin and Ducky Medwick came in the first and second innings, each time two Cardinals were on base, so Dig start- ed off with Q six run lead. He turned the Giants back scoreless for five innings before he lost his effective ness and the New Workers pushed across i've runs. Any other pitcher in the league would have been jerk cd from the mound long before, but Manager Frankie Frisch confidently let his star stay in thereand take 1t. Diz turned of the tally tap at i've and went on to pitch scoreless bali the remainder of the game.
 Tn the only other National league game played, the Cincinnati Reds pummeled three Boston Bee pitch- CTS for an 6 to 1 victory. The Chi- cago- Brooklyn and Pittsburg- Phlla- delphia tits were washed out. Tn the American league the lead- ing New York Yankees increased their margin to i've games over the idle Boston Red Sox by downing the Detroit Tigers 5 to 2 behind the eight hit hurling of Lefty Gomez. Detroit fell to sixth place in the standings.
 Boston at St. Louis was postponed.
 Washlngton's Senators were the victims of the Cleveland Indians, losing Q to 6, but retained third place. The Chicago White Sox re- rnained deadiocked with the Indians for fourth place by defeating the Philadelphia Athletics 5 to { in . l3-inning game.

 Although approximately 60,O00 fans saw the fight, the actual paid attendance was only 39,878. The dis- crepancy in the figures was caused by the fact that thousands were admitted at the last minute with out tickets-merely by planking down two or three dollars at the gate and seeking the best seats they could find.
 The gross gate was $547.531 and the net $464, ,045. Louis share will be $139, ,483.50. Schmeling was guar anteed $150,000 tax free which meant a loss for Jacobs.

New York, June 20- (UP)--Or his left side he carried 8 great heart-a hsart which told him witt It's every beat that he must leave the ring one of two things - tho winner org a dead man.
 On his right side he carried great hand-a hand which, starting from way down yonder, whistlec down string to land as Q depth bomb lanlds.
 This combination "a ticker which ndver skipped, even wher the firing became merciless, and 6 fist whidh kept chunking, chunk ing, chfu hiking carried MaS Schmelilhg of Germany to his al- most unbelievable victory over Jot Louis of Alabam' at Yankee stad' ium last night.
 In my book, Max's heart played the bigger part. For as I saw 1t he won 'the fight from the browr boy bya outgaming him. True, il was that winging right hand which finally ended 1t, with punch which sent the padding flying from the knuckl6s of Maxs gloves and the saliva from Joe's gaping mouth But that right hand never would have had 8 chance to send the negro jack-knifing to the floor fl the o1' heart, from the first round to the finish, had not kept throb- ping that song of the brave: Keep moving in, kid; keep punching, kid; keep winging that fist"
 Yek, he simply out-gamed him Thats all he had over the bomber Louis hit harder than Schmeling did, land he hit faster and more of- ten. He was a better boxer. He was youhger and he was strongerii but his heart wasn't quite as big. Don't let anyone tell you that Louis took the more severe beating, because he didn't. During the 12 rounds the fight went, Louis landed two bldws to one. He closed the Ger mdn's eye completely. He cut his mouth open. He beat his belly into pulp. He drove home @ thousand le1ts and rights-the same rights and lefts which left Camera bleed- Iling on the floor, drove Paulino'S lipt through his mouth, and sent the magnificent animal that is Bael drooling to the canvas.
 But Schemling never took a back ward step. He never wobbled. A the blows crashed against his face hnd belly he spread out his legs Jerked the anguish of his face, and swaded in, right hand cooked. Max scorned jabbing. After that fourth round when Louis hit the deck back of head first, the German threw right hands and nothing else And he was a hell of 8 sharp shooter. He seldom missed.
 Both of them scorned defense in the closing rounds. Not once, but dozen times, they stood toe to toe and measured each other, right hands drawn like the long bows of old. Thwack- -Whaml-they ey'd cut 'em loose. There would be 8 whapI As Max's landed, and a whaml AS Joe's whistled to it's mark.
 Then round would end. Louis his legs doing Leon Errol would circle dizzily to his corner. Max left eye closed tight, feet Hopping fiatly from weariness, would stag ger to his corner. And down in the ringside you'd ask yourself
 Tn the name of God, who is go- ing to call It's quits first"
