Farm Questions
And Answers

QUESTION: What is the best
feed for poultry in winter?
ANSWER: Cured alfalfa hay,
lespedeza, or clover hay make
good greens for winter use pro-
vided the green color is retained.
Alfalfa leaf meal, if green in CO.
lor, also makes a satisfactory
feed, but should not constitute
more than ten percent of the
mash. This feed is much pre-
ferred to alfalfa meal which has
a high fiber content, but neither
is as satisfactory as green alfal-
ia hay. All the hays should be fed
in racks as the birds will eat only
the leaves and the stems can BE
thrown in the litter.
QUESTION: How can stomach
worms be controlled in a herd of
young cattle?
ANSWER: Preventive measures
are very important in control
ling this parasite. The pasture
should be well drained and the
cattle frequently changed to fresh
pasture. Drinking water should be
supplied in troughs above the le-
vel of the ground. The medical
treatment consists of drenching
the animals with a solution of
copper sulphate made by dissolv-
ing one-fourth pound of clear
blue crystals of copper sulphate
in one pint of boiling water and
adding enough cold water to
make three gallons of the solu-
ton. For yearling cattle the dose
is six fluid ounces and second
treatment should be given in ten
to fourteen days.

% DIFFERENT FORAGE il. <, x
CROPS GROWN IN STATE

Farmers of Mott tn Carolina have
their choice of 20 different forage
crops, says E. c. Blair, agronomist
Of the State College Extension
Service, although some Of them
are better adapted to certain soil
types and conditions than others.
I'VE are extremely fortunate in
this respect" Blair stated, "but
we are not taking full advantage
of our opportunities"
Summer legumes include soy
beans, cowpeas, annual lespede-
"a, peanuts, velvet beans, and
kudzu. Perennial legumes are al
falfa, red clover, sweet clover, al
sike clover, an lespedeza seri-
cea. Winter. legl les include Grim
son clover, vetcl-. Austrian winter
peas, and bur clover. Small
grains are oats, barley, wheat and
rye. Perennial grasses are timo-
thy, orchard grass, redtop, and
tall oat grass. Annual grasses in
clude sorghums, foxtail millet,
japanese millet, johnson grass,
sugar grass and crabgrass.
Seven of these-soybeans, vel
vet beans, annual lespedeza, bar
ley, sweet clover, Austrian win
ter peas, and lespedeza sericea-
have been introduced into the
State during the present century,

Football Season Draws To A
Close; Bowls Now Considered

Today brings to a close the 1899
football season for most of the
colleges throughout the nation.
Many Of them can be thankful
that they came through as well
as they did and those whose win
ming column is in the red, can
look forward to next year.
Just, now there is much talk
about the bowls. Word from the
far West has Southern California
and Tennessee, barring unfore-
seen accidents, lined up for the
Rose Bowl. New Orleans is plug
ging for Tulane against the best
available, probably Texas A. and
M, for its Sugar Bowl. Dixie Ho-
wells Border conference cham
pions from Tempe (Ariz.) State
will be hosts in the Sun Bowl.
But beyond that, nothing has
been heard from Mi3mi's Orange
Bowl CT the Dallas Cotton Bowl,
and the only known facts are that
their own and conference rules
will keep Cornell and Ohio State
from accepting all invitations.
Still, there should be plenty OF
candidates to go around.
Though this weeks program
will bring Texas A. and M. and
Tennessee, one-two in the last AS
sociated Press poll, back into &C
ton, in many ways it will be an
ticlimatic. Of the major cham
pionships, all but those in the
Southeastern and Pacific Coast
conferences already have been
won and lost.
or the title-winners, Cornell
was by far the most impressive
Saturday. Using it's first-string-
ers almost without substitution
until the final quarter, Carl
Snaveiy's Big Red brigade march
ed through, over and around an
outelassed Pennsylvania team to
a $50 triumph that brought Itha-
ca its first all-winning season
since 1923 and left this master
piece of sound coaching the domi-
nant power in the east.
Snavelys record should make
North Carolinians a bit proud
since he was one of them not so
long ago.
The Southern conference race
wound up with Duke and Glenn
son, each beaten once by outside
foes, in a tie for the lead. The
Blue Devils, with George Nc
Afee showing the way, buried
North Carolina State under
$50 count, and Banks McFadden
scored both touchdowns and con-
Stantly kept Furm2n in the hole
with bis punting as Clemson
won, 1913.
