Melon And Pickle
Worms Subject To
Curb In. Carolina

The indications are that the
melon and pickle worm may be
satisfactorily controlled in North
and South Carolina, and probably
elsewhere, by busting with a dor
ris powder mixture containing
from SO to 1879 rotenone. In
cases of light infestations the SO
dust should be sufficient if ap-
piled early and regularly. Where
the infestation is heavy the l &c
or the 1.59c dust should be used.
Sulphur seems to be the most eff
fective diluent for melon and
pickle worms, possibly because of
some action against young larvae.
The addition of from 10 to $3.50
tale, clay, or wheat flour or fine
ly-ground tobacco dust to the dor
ris-sulphur mixture will improve
it's busting qualities.
The treatments should begin
when the worms first appear on
the leaf buds of the squash plant,
which may be within week or 10
days after the plants appear above
ground, and continued at 7 to 10
day intervals as long as.the worms
are present or the crop is being
harvested. The rate of application
will depend upon the size of the
plants, and, should range, from Is
to 25 pounds per acre. Extreme
care should be exercised. to see
that the growing tips of the plants
are we'll covered with the dust as
the, worms feed extensively on the
young leaf buds before tunneling
into the fruit, stem and vines.
Pyrethrum powder has also
proved of value in the control OF
these pests. The, ,pyrothurm pow
der should be used in. mixture
with clay or tale and sulphur, us
ing equal parts of the pyrethrum
and the diluent.
! Cryolite and Paris green may
be used to advantage in early
treatments. In order to avoid
danger of poisonous residues on
the market product, treatment
/, with these materials should not be
| made after the fruit has begun to
set. The Paris green should be
! diluted with sulphur and lime in
! the ratio of one pound of Paris
green, four and one-half pounds
sulphur and four and one-half
pounds lime. The addition of lime
to the mixture is necessary in or
der to reduce the danger of injury
to the plants.
Cryolite may be mixed with
| clay and sulphur in the ratio of
one pound of cryolite to one
pound of clay to htree pounds of
| ulphur.
Calcium arsonate has not proven
satisfactory as a: poison for, the
melon and pickle worm.
A bellows type buster is more
satisfactory for the treatment of
the squash crop than the rotary
type because of the method of
planting and also the. necessity of
applying the material directly to
the growing tips of the plant.

Henderson County Agent

Of all the farm enterprises
there is probably none that is so
badly neglected as permanent
pasture. Very few farmers know
the value of a real pasture. Most
farmers merely think of a pasture
as being land that is not fit Tor
cultivation; so they place wire
around this land and call 1t pas
ture. This is especially true in
the Piedmont section of the
state. .
1t only takes about one acre OF
pasture that has been properly
seeded, lined and fortified to
make enough grazing for COW;
while it requires from three to
four acres of ordinary pasture for
a cow.
There are several advantages
of having a good permanent pas
ture on, the farm:
First, it prevents erosion. When
properly seeded, according to DR.;

conservation SCINIIt) IL ASNuAA ~

years.
Second, pasture is very cheap
source of mineral matter and pro-
tein. During the grazing stage,
grass contains much more protein
and ash than the same amount OF
dry matter in the form of cured
hay.
Third, pasture is one of our
richest sources of vitamins, which
have been found to so essential to
life.
Fourth, pasture is one of our
cheapest sources of feed for live
stock. According to Johr Arey

FOXY EVA HAS
NOTABLE MILK
PRODUCTION
Exhibit at Swannanoa Aug,
20 Will Be in Her
Honor
By DIR. c. D. GRINNELLS
Veterinarian, North Carolina Elk.
pertinent Station

The foundation OF the worlds
largest industry is the dairy cow.
She is responsible for the initial
product and her efficiency means
much to the producer, professor,
and consumer. By improved feed
ing and management and eradica-
ton of disease, much has been
done to increase her efficiency.
Some progress has also been made
in breeding, but this field of i'm
provement offers the greatest chal-
lenge because of the many heredl-
tary factors involved.
Some cows of the various breeds
appear to possess outstanding qua
lities such as persistency, consist
ency, and longevity. These quail
ties mean much in increasing eff
fciency of production. They help
the dairyman to decrease the ex-
cessive depreciation costs.
The Mountain Branch station at
Swannanoa is celebrating its Oath
annual Farmers Field day on Au-
gust 20. One of the feature ex-
hibits is in honor of that grand
old cow, Eminent's Foxy Eva,
$4,000. Foxy Eva has produced
123,2O1 pounds of milk and s.
424.73 pounds of fat up to her
present lactation, and she is now
producing at the rate of 1000
pounds of milk per month. With
the exception of her half-sister,
Eminent's Fern Lucille, 562998, at
the Coastal Plains Branch Expert
ment station, statewide survey
has failed to bring out any other
| 100000 pound living cows.
WHO is FOXY EVA?
Foxy Eva is daughter of Ru-
mina's King, 10000, who increas-
ed the production of his daughters
over their dams by 11.5 per cent.
She is also. a granddaughter of
Eminent 10Th, 1890, who in
creased the production of his
daughters over their dams by 31.6
per cent in milk and 36.1 per cent
in butterfat. She is bred for pro-
duction and she is true to her
breeding. Included among her IL
offspring are five daughters, four
of which are in the Mountain sta
ton herd. These four daughters
and their dam are producing al
most one-half the milk made by
/ the Mountain station herd, of II
milking cows at the present time.
Foxy Eva's total milk produc-
ton for the II years when sold at
20 cents gallon will furnish 80
per cent of the food budget for a
family of five and also furnish a
! balance in cash of $1,190. 1t
would be necessary, of course, to
feed her literally of home pro-
duced ration. Her diet has been
adequate but more simple than
that enjoyed by many of her tribe.
1t has consisted of:
Roughage: legume hay, corn 81
lage and pasture in season; and
concentrates mixture: corn, 400
pounds; cottonseed meal, 800 lbs;
bran, 200 lbs; oats, 100 lbs.
The concentrate mixture is fed
at the rate of one pound to 2 1.2
pounds of milk. A large part of
this ration can be produced on the
farm.
Foxy Eva's progeny can be fig
ured as an additional income. The
heifers have been used as herd re-
placements and the males sold to
head other herds. ',
