Farmers Urged To
Plant Sweet Corn

Except in the mountain section,
the name sweet corn" has little
significance to farmers and market
gardeners of North Carolina, says
Robert Schmidt, associate horticul-
turist of the Agricultural Expert
ment Station at State College.
In other sections of the State, the
familiar type is roasting ear corn
which is usually an early variety of
of field corn picked while compare
lively young.
There is no comparison between
the quality of real sweet corn and
that of young field corn, Schmidt
says. Sweet corn is far superior,
both, in sugar content and in ten
derneSS.
General opinion for many years
has held that sweet corn could not
be grown successfully in the South.
Some of the older varieties were
not well adapted, but with the
breeding of new hybirds, there is
now a large number of good varie-
ties on the market.
In field tests at Raleigh, the most
outstanding variety was Golden
Cross Bantam. Other good varie-
ties are Wipcross, Spancross, and
Bantam Evergreen Hybrid. One of
the best of the new white varie-
ties is Redgreen Hybrid.
Sweet corn is grown in much the
same manner as field corn, although
it prefers richer soils. Having a
small stalk, it can be planted clo-
ser. Rows should be spaced 31s
feet apart and hills 20 to "a inches
apart in the row.
Schmidt says that in order to
have a succession of corn, paintings
should be made every two weeks.
To secure better pollination, plant
ings should be made in blocks Of
three or four rows rather than in
single rows.

I.V. Hog Raisers,
Take a Memo -
Here's Some Dope

Red hogs, Duroc Jerseys, yield
firmer carcasses after slaughter
than do Poland Chinas, black.
This startling statement is made
by DIR. E. H. Hughes, professor of
animal husbandry on the Davis
campus of the University of Cali
fornia College of Agriculture. DR..
Hughes is the author of new bull
letin, No GIG, titled Hardness of
Pork Fat as Affected by Alfalfa
Pasture and by Breed This bullet
tin may be obtained from the Col
lege at Berkeley, or from any farm
advisor.
DR.. Hughes finds that alfalfa pas
ture does not affect the carcaSSes
as regards quality, but he finds also
that there is a marked difference
between Duroc Jersey and Poland
China hogs as regards quality. He
says:
by means of the two measure
mentS-physical grading of the
carcaSses in the cooler at a tenn
perature of about SO degrees Fab

and by readings of the refractive
index of the fat. it was found that
the Duroc Jersey carcaSseS and
back and leas fat from finished pigs
weighing about 200 pounds before
slaughter were firmer than those
of similar Poland Chinas under
the conditions of the present cx-

Every effort was made. accord

Shipments
OF Alfalfa
On Increase

Alfalfa Shipmcns from Imperial
Valley to Los Angeles markets con
tinued TO show an increase during
The past week, according to the
fedaral-State market news service
More than 1900 tons of hay were
shipped last week as Compaed to
only 3110 tons OF hay the previous
week
Alfalfa markets generally were
steady at the principal points dur
ing the week trading was of very
narrow volume at most markets.
Limited offerings from the first
crop in southern California were
finding quite a ready outlet at
steady prices. While the quality to
date has averaged considerably un-
der that of last year.
San Francisco and other central
California markets were very quiet
DUNG the period, reflecting a slow
demand and limited Offerings.
Prices of the old crop stocks at
San Francisco were nominally un-
changed as compared with a week
ago.
Trading was of rather narrow
volume at Kansas City at nominal
ly unchanged prices. Little activity
was reported at northwest markets,
while prices on most grades of hay
showed practically no change. Har-
vesting of the new crop of alfalfa
in the Salt River Valley of Arizona
has been making slow progress due
to inclement weather. Marketing
conditions in that area are show
ing little change.

had to be imported before cantal-
oupes and other melons could be
grown.
1t has been stated that the value
of bees to agriculture was so times
as great as to the owner of the
bees and their production of wax
and honey.
That statement is hard to believe
until you think of the melon in
duStry which is entirely dependent
upon bees.
Besides cantaloupeS and melons,
cucumberS, squash, and caSabas,
are dependent upon the bee for
their production.
There are $4,000 bee hives in the
valley. according to the county
agriculture commissioners office,
assuring valley growers sufficient
pollination.
In some sections of the country
orchardists pay bee owners 81 per
hive to keep the hives in orchards
in order that their trees will have
sufficient pollinization.
Thus it is not surprising that
the board of supervisors recently
took action to regulate poison
spraying in order TO preserve the
bee industry in Imperial Valley.
