CREDIT SURVEY
UNDERTAKEN
BY ROPER

Secretary Of Commerce Roper
today had completed plans for q
monthly survey Of sales and col
lections Of manufacturers and
wholesalers, aimed to divert 25c
million dollars Of annual business
losses into unemployment chan
Neis.
Railing the new service as a
far-reaching boon to the credit
field, H. H. Lyman, manager OF
the National Association Of Credit
Men, explained the effect Of the
regular surveys at the Secretary's
press conference. Lyman said:
''The bad debt loss in the
United States apprOximates one
billion dollars q year. Through
this regular monthly survey,
the Commerce Department win
rave the way for better and
sOunder credits. 1t will bring
to the general credit situation
. correction Of existing cOndi-
tons.
I'VE believe this will result
In shaving the billion dollar
loss by Is per cent, or $50 mil
lien dollars o year. This saving
can be swung to unemployment.
It is . move Of conservation
which will be reflected in high
er earnings.
"The survey Of sales and col
lectiOnS Of wholesalers will be
broken down geographically,
although we are unable to do
this In the manufacturing
field"
At the same time Secretary
Roper revealed he has abandoned
his plans Of launching q jobless
census, with persons on relief Is
tabulatorS. He said:
"The business census which Is
now In progress demonstrates
the great difficulty Of finding
persons on relief who are quail
fled for this work, or can be
trained easily. Great care is
needed I'm the selection of peO-
PIE who are experienced in this
work, IL the census would be
accurate"

Develop Strong Bee
Colonies In Spring

with very few, if any, cells left va
can't, Sans pointed out.
If the brood comb has many
empty cells, the queen is weak.
The absence of brood indicates that
the colony is queenless.
A colony with a weak queen, OF
without a queen, should be united
with one that has a vigorous, pro-
life queen. If the colony is in
fairly good condition, it may be
advisable to introduce a new queen
to the place Of an old or weak one
Bees die rapidly, Sans explained:
and unless a large number of bees is
raised from the brood in spring, the
colony will not be able to gather a
great deal of nectar when the honey
flow starts.
In the warmer sections of the
State, it will be safe to open the
hives for examination in March
In the cooler mountain areas, it il
best to wait as late as May to avoie
danger of chilling the colonies, hi
warned.

A bee colony that grows strong
and healty in the spring will be in
a good position to gather large
quantities of honey when the flow
ers and trees put forth their BIOS
SONS.
To insure the development of a
strong colony, c.. L. Sans, extern
sion apiarist at State College, urges
b~eekeepers to examine their colon
les on a warm day in early spring.
The colony should have a good
queen, an abundance of food, plenty
of brood comb, and a large force
of workers. 1t should also be free
from disease.
If the colony has less than IS
pounds of stores, it should be fed
with honey taken from a healthy
hive that has a surplus or with a
syrup made of equal parts of water
and sugar.
The condition of the queen may
be determined by examining a few
combs of brood. Brood from a
good queen will be in solid patches.

The severe cold weather of the

ures are taken.
The boil weevil can wreak havoc
with the cotton fields if weather
conditions during the growing sea-
son are favorable to its develop
ment.
Cotton growers should prepare
now for weevil control, he said.
What battle was ever won by wait

He urged tobacco growers tc
watch their plant beds carefully for
signs of flea beetle injury. When
beetles are found, apply poisons &C
cording to recommendations of
county farm agents.
Horn worms r a continual
source of loss to tobacco growers:
but machines have been devised tc

machine can often be used in cot

New Soil Program To
Check Overproduction

The primary objective of the new
soil conservation and domestic al
lotment act is the wise use of land,
but its ultimate detectives r more
far-reaching.
"By conserving our soil resources
and putting our land to better
use," said Dean 1. O.. Schaub, Of
State College, 1--WE hope that the
production of basic farm commo-
dities will be held in check"
Under the new plan, he said, it
will not be possible to control the
crop production of individual
farms, as under the AAA, but it is
believed the program will tend tc
prevent serious over-production and
its consequent Generalization of
prices.
The act provides for government
grants to farmers for growing
erosion-control and soil-building
crops such as legumes and grasses
rather than oil-depleting cash crops.

Hints TO Gardeners
by Gordon Morrison
Breeding Expert
Ferry Seed Institute
Prepare Soil Early

IN gardening as in Christmas shop.
i ping an early start is important.
Size up your garden plot now to
determine what can be done to inn
prove the soil.
Spade or pillow early. If a handful
of soil gripped firmly can be crum-
bled readily upon release. the soil
is in condition to be plowed or
spaded. If the handful of soil does
not crumble readily but remains
packed, put off the job until a later
day.
Any soil is enriched by manure,
Clay soils are improved in texture
and sandy soils are improved in
water holding capacity by spading
under manure, rotted leaves or lawn
clippings OF rotted garden refuse.
Complete commercial fertilizers
are everywhere available. Ask for
a~a"4-12-6" or similar mixture. Broad
cast and rake in about four pounds
of this per square rod Just before
planting.
1t is important that fertilizer be
used cautiously, for an excess is
often harmful, particularly when
dealing with production of fruits,
that is. tomato. cucumber. pepper,
etc.
Garden preparation effort is
wasted if you do not plant seeds
from dependable sources. Select
your favorite varieties at the nearby
store before the supply is depleted.
Make Jul they are freshly packed.
To gardeners who also like to
maintain an excellent lawn-arli-
ness of renewal again Is important.
Take advantage of a comparatively
warm, early spring day when. the
surface is almost bare and the air
is calm.
Sow about a teacupful of seed to
100 square feet Of lawn. Melting
snow carries the seed into the soil
and subsequent light SHOWS will be
beneficial. Tender seedlings thus get
9; good start before the days become
too warm

Care OF Chicks
ToSucceed With Hens

The future success of the poultry
flock depends a great deal upon the
care and management Of growing
chicks in the spring.
Give them proper care, said Roy
S. Dearstyne, head of the poultry
department at State College, and
they will grow into strong, vigor-
Gus profitable birds.
Some of the fundamentals to OBJ
serve while the chicks are young
were pointed out as follows:
Do not overcrowd. See that
there are not more than two chicks
for each square foot of floor space
in the brooder house.
Provide two-half gallon drinking
founts for each 100 chicks. One
f~ive-foot mash hopper will be
enough for each 100 chicks during
the first three weeks.
From the age of three weeks un-
til they reach broiler size, each 100
chicks should have two mash hop
pers four inches high, six inches
wide, and five feet long.
Inadequate feeding and drinking
facilities is one of the faults in
poultry raising.
Have adequately controlled ven
tilation. More chicks are killed OF
weakened by overheating than by
chilling.
Keep the feed hoppers filled with
a we'll balanced mash.
Aim to have the chicks consum-
ing about equal parts of mash and
scratch feed at the sixth week.
Maintain rigid sanitation.
Gull all slow developing chicks
These seldom come through anc
prove profitable.
When the weather permits, gel
the chicks out on the ground. A
great deal of benefit is gained from
sunshine, green feed, and fresh air

Lawrence Proves
Pure Bred Seeds
Best For Farmer
(Mecklenburg Times)

For five years C. G. Lawrence,
Mecklenburg County Vocational
Agricultural teacher at Mint Hill
has been preaching and practicing
the gospel of pure bred seeds and
munity.
c.. G. Lawrence, who has seen
certified and registered seed trans
form low yields in cotton, corn,
wheat, and oats, into high yields
on average farm lands, is still say
ing that good seed planted to good
soil is the basis of good farming.
Three years ago he proved to the
farmers of Mecklenburg county the
value of good seed by bringing in
to the community seeds that were
well adapted, true to type, and
very prolific.
In the fall of 1892, Mr.. Lawrence
brought into his community 50
bushels of Leaps Prolific Strain II
this was seeded and produced 1850
bushels. 500 bushels were certified.
In the fall of 1885 the farmers
seeded around 1900 acres from the
stock of seed, and received very
high yields.
In the spring of 1885 the farm
ers with the assistance of Mr.. Law
renee in their Evening Class work
organized themselves and bought
from Coker's Breeding Farm 1000
lbs. of Farm Relief Strain ; cotton,
this seed was seeded on five diff
ferent farms away from any other
cotton, protecting it against the
danger of crossing in varieties.
This cotton produced IN average of
497 pounds of lint cotton per acre.

community, or section, are striving
