Poultry Threatened
By Pullorum Disease

College Station, Raleigh, June 2.
North Carolina poultrymen can
not be too careful of the pullorum
disease which takes a large toll
of chickens and turkeys every year
say Extension Service poultry
specialists at State college.
know your hatcheryman and be
sure that the birds which h els
selling are disease free" say the
specialists. Chicks and poults
bought just because they are
cheap may be very costly in the
final outcome"
They cite a report from County
Agent E J. Morgan of Aampson
County about a poultryman in the
Ruseboro district as to what may
happen. The poultryman bought
500 turkey poults through an ad-
vertisement in magazine and IA
of them were dead on arrival. In
two weeks all were dead except
"a and WIN the report was made
only 30 of the original 500 were
living.
An examination of some of the
poults by H. C. Gauger, poultry
pathologist at State College, re-
vealed that the birds had died of
pullorum.

good application of fertilizer last
fall as compared with his otner
wheat unfertilized at that time,
saws County Agent j. A. Marsh OF
the State College Etenslon Service.
Early this spring, small grains
made little growth because of dry
weather and they did not take full
advantage of the topdressin that
was applied. On the other hand,
Barringer's wheat with 400 pounds
of complete fertilizer per acre ap-
piled last fall made made excel
lent growth because it was firmly
established before winter set IN and
was in position to make an early
growth in the spring.
Barringer left check plot in
the middle of the field about three
times the width of grain drill,
where no fertilizer was used at
planting. Even though the entire
field received a generous appllca-
ton of nitrate of soda and murlate
of potash in early spring, the check
plot did not make the growth that
was expected of it because of tie
dry weather.
ut appears that the wheat which
was fortified last fall will make
about four times as much as the
unfertilized wheat, in spite OF the
topdressing over the whole field"
Marsh says.
He also points out that good APP
plications of fertilizer to corn at
planting is good practice. THE
corn is not yellow when it comes
up; it makes quick growth and
can be easily worked out before
other corn; and it reaches the stage
for topdressing before other crops.
North Carolina uses more fertill-
ger than any other state in the
Union but it seems that there is
always something for us to learn
about the fertilization of our crops.

Thistle Plant Spreads
In Wake County Areas

COLLEGE STATION, Raleigh,
June 2. blessed THISTLE is
spreading so rapidly and is causing
so much trouble to dairymen in
Wake county that two farmers
have turned to tear gas treatments
in an effort to control the pest
Botanically the weed is known
as cnicus benedictus. Since the
plant is a winter annual and is
propagated entirely by seed, i t s
spread is relatively rapid in small
grain crops. alfalfa, and in tenn
porary grazing crops. Much graz
ing has been lost by the dairymeA
this year and they have expressed
grave concern over the spread of
the pest.
