Farm Questions
And A ms we r S

QUESTION:: When should the
poultry laying flock be culled?
ANSWER: This, of course, depends
upon laying conditions and the per-
iod of mott. The flock should be
watched carefully during the early
summer and when production falls
below thirty per cent it is time to
start culling. The earlier the mott
the more rigid the culling, The bird
that has been properly fed and goes
intos a mott in June, July, or even
August should be removed from the
flock. The price of feed, the feed
cost per dozen eggs, and the price
that eggs are bringing should also
be considered when culling.

Henry Naves of Marshall, route l.,
dug and set 480 small locust trees

control by these measures.

QUESTION: When is the best time
for seeding the fall garden?

ANSWER: This depends upon the
hardness of the different vegetables
and upon the time required for ma
turity. Tender vegetables should be
planted in time to produce a crop
before killing frosts occur. Many
of the cool-season crops will mature
through light frosts, but most of
them should be planted in time to
reach maturity before the heavy
frosts. A table giving planting
dates TOR seasonal vegetables is
given in Extension Circular 122 and
this may be obtained free upon ap-
pication to the Agricultural Editor
at State College.

QUESTION: Should tobacco plant
beds be plowed up after the plants
are pulled? -7r.~.s>
ANSWER: BY all means. The beds
should be plowed and all remaining
plants killed as these plants
furnish bpeeding places for thou
sands of insects that spread to the
tobacco in the field and cause seri-
Gus damage to the growing weed.
Then, too, failure to pillow the bed
may result in a srious outbreak OF
blue mold next year. The bed
should be seeded to sweet potatoes
or some other garden vegetable i'm
mediately after blowing. ,-

aside from North's verbal error (of
course he intended to bid four clubs
instead Of four spades) the bidding
was doubtless rather optimistic. I sat
South and presume that should have
passed after my partners minimum
rebid in hearts.
West opened the diamond jack.
East took his ace and returned the
suit. my queen falling to Vests king.
On the third round of diamonds I
trumped with the spade deuce and led
the 10 of hearts. When this held the
jack Of hearts was then overtaken
with the queen. The ace of hearts
was now played and small club dis
carded from the closed hand. I next
hnessed the jack Of clubs and laid
down the king East's queen falling.
Things were beginning to look slightly
better and I led the ace of clubs
East, who at that time was down to
his five spades, trumped and returned
the eight. The nine was finessed and
when it held, my troubles were over
I trumped my last club with the king
Of spades and led one Of dummy's two
remaining hearts. At that point all
hands were down to two cards 50 that
Vests queen and 10 Of trumps were
trapped under the ace and jack.
I suppose that on the third lead
Of diamonds I should never have al
lowed my miserable trump suit to be
forced but should have discarded q
(possible) losing heart. Had there
been an opposing double I should GER
tainly have done so in order to reduce
the risk of q major trick. Not vul-
nerable and undoubled, it seemed
worth while to gamble an extra set
Of several tricks against the barest
chance Of fulfilling the contract"

We wish to congratulate Mr.. Daddy on

Der Of tricks in an effort to fulfill a

reads:
THE following hand seem to be
something Of curiosity and thought
you might like to see it. A slip of the
tongue in the course of bidding re-

but a bucket Of water set Seattle
ablaze 18 years later.
In dark basement a painter was
busy stirring a pot Of glue boiling on
q stove.
The painter. John Back, pulled q
handkerchief from his pocket, mopped
at his forehead. Suddenly the glue
boiled over onto the stove and caught
fire.
Back grabbed pail OF water nearby
and hurled its contents on the flaming
glue. Instead Of extinguishing the
blaze, the water sent the flaming mass
spluttering to the floor. where it ignited
pile Of wood shavings.
In moment the whole room, the
whole building was ablaze BY night
fall, June Z. the town was virtually
leveled.

Pedestrians Tricky

physically deficient. However, 1t is very possible to over-rate his abil- ity, because of hidden deficiencies, which were previously indicated. The aged pedestrian is readily recognized. We all hope some day to join the class of pedestrians known as the normal aged. We must recognize the fact that while these individuals are relatively normal, they have reached an age where their ability to respond to hazards quickly created are governed by reactions considerably less elastic than those of younger years. Con- sequently, when we see this type of pedestrian we should extend those courtesies that we will expect to en- joy from others when we are old"
 "The physically deficient in most cases are readily apparent and our dealings with them should be sim liar to those of the normal aged Those with mental difficulties, in- cluding those persons under the in- fluence of liquor are more likely to respond to impulse in manner similar to the child and should be dealt with accordingly"
 Summarizing. we must recognize that many people on the street to- day are incapable of being respon- sible for their conduct. As result a very large portion of this respon- sibility must be assumed by us. Ere quently in the downtown or heav- fly trafficked area this responsibil- ity must be divided among all the drivers in the immediate vicinity. Each has his share in permitting the pedestrian to pass through the zone unharmed, as we'll as driving his car without becoming involved with another vehicle. As good driv- CTS we must be and should be aware of the hazards that we are exposed to by the actions of other users of our streets and highways"
