Here is where an ounce of pre-.

"Take every possible precaution
that is practical to prevent

once the calf is infected, it has
lost a part of its chance to live,
thrive, and grow off properly.
There are dozens Of suggested

l46FARM LAND
PROGRAM READY

COLLEGE STATION, Raleigh,
Nov. II. - The 1916 Agricultural
Conservation Program administer
ed locally by more than 5000
active Tar Heel farmers, is all
harnessed and ready to ride" with
over $4,000, 1000 to aid in the re-
conversion of North Carolina's
Farmland to meet the demands
Of peace, it is announced by G. T.
Scott, state director of the Prod
uction and Marketing Administra-
ton at State College.
The remarkable farm war re-
cord was not accomplished with
out loss to the soil,'' Scott de-
clared. And now, with the war
over, this state is again faced
with tremendous job. Soil-main-
tanning rotations that were chang
ed to get more acres during the
war must be restored. The sue:
cess with which this job is done
will determine the states agricul-
tural welfare for years to come.
The significant change in the
'46 program from previous ACP
programs" Scott explained, ex-
tends a policy of adapting soil
building practices to the different
needs of individual states, coun-
ties and communities"
The state ALLEGATION of funds has
been broken down into county and
community ALLEGATIONS based on
needs for conservation practices.
Ihir method of distribution OF
funds gives the farmer-committee-
men, Who administer the pro-
gram and have actual knowledge
of the conservation needs of theil
county and community, an oppor-
tunity to concentrate on the prac-
tees that will be Of the most
value on individual FARMS" he
continued. Participating farmers
will sit down with local commit
teemen and select practices, from
the list approved for the county,
that are needed most on their
farms and endeavor to obtain
maximum conservation with the
funds allotted

ed into these types of practices

Ru f. III. LETTER

It's only few days Until
Thanksgiving and then Christmas
is lust around the corner. The fea-
ture dish on these two great North
Carolina holidays is turkey and this
leads Roy Dearstyne, head OF the
State College poultry department,
to think for a moment about the
way in which the states turkey in
dustry is headed.
What are its problems right now?
What steps must be taken to i'm
prove the production of the birds?
How can volume production Of tur-
KEYS be started in the state and
then how maintained or even in
creased. Is it possible that we
shall have to abandon our newly
started turkey industry altogether?
These are all important questions
which growers must consider.
Roy says a number Of N o h
Carolinians are now getting either
part or all of their income
from turkey production and that
many other farm families have a
flock of turkeys which they grow
each year as part Of their food
production plan. The business OF
turkey production is definitely on
the increase in this state. Accord
ing to a survey made in October,
North Carolina is the 25th state
in the union in the possible pro-
duction of turkeys for this year.
Far more impressive than this is
the fact that only four states in
the Union exceeded North Carolina
in it's increase of production in
1915 as compared with last year,
1914. AS a matter Of fact, our
increase was 100 per cent which
made North Carolina the second
state in that group known as the
South Atlantic states. This shows
that turkey production here defini-
tely has started upward and that
the birds will or should, in the
future, furnish dependable part
of our farm income.
But Dearstyne makes this peril

CROSSBRED PULLETS

F., RECORDS OVER STATE

COLLEGE STATION. Raleigh,
Nov. 11-Crossbred pullets have
laid an average of 20 more eggs

More diary calves die from
scours than from any other cause
A. C. Kinney, Extension dairyman
at State College, in letter to the
commercial diarymen of North
Carolina, discusses the causes and
remedies for this trouble but he
especially emphasizes the need for
sanitation and prevention.
He points out the fact that there
are two types of scours: one is
nutritional; the other is caused by
a certain virus bacteria. Both
must be taken into consideration
by the dairyman who wants to do
good job of calf raising.
The most common type of
scours may be termed nutrition.
al'' since it is caused by too much
milk, by milk too rich in fat, and
by the calf drinking too fast. II
may also result from feeds con.
tanning too much fiber and short.
age of certain vitamins.
This trouble happens more often
among pail fed calves than among
those that nurse" says Kinney,
"because such calves drink too
fast and much of the milk is forced
into the rumen Or paunch, or into
the small intestine, before it is
coagulated by the digestive juices.
It is very important that calves
be forced to drink slowly. Some
calf feeders largely eliminate this
trouble by the use of a nipple pail.
where calves are fed largely on
gruels, made from a mixture OF
finely ground grains, scours is
more likely to occur than where
milk is fed, because large portions
of the Cruel are likely to pass out
of the stomach before digestion.
The excess fiber tends to irritate
the intestinal tract and scours re-
suit. Grain fed in the form of pei
lets will give better results be-
cause the calves eat more slow
ly than with other feeds.
Lespedeza is less likely to cause
scours than alfalfa hay, and it is
preferable to non-legume hay be-
cause of its mineral and vitamir
content. ..-....
Newborn calves, especially
those dropped in late winter after
their dams have been on dry feee
for several months, often have low
reserves of vitamins A and B. This
is especially true when the hay
has been of low quality. Such
calves are often too weak to nurse
properly, and thus obtain a suf
ficient amount of colostrum milk
This first milk. is rich in vitamir
A, -a.. Il
"Other rich sources are largely
green legune hay and cod liver
oil. Yeast is a good source Of Wit
amin B. Most drug stores have
both vitamins A and B in capsIla
form. These may seem expensive
but, in comparison with a well
bred calf, they are cheap"
Control Of contagious scours Is
one Of prevention and not of cure.
Kinney point out that the colos
trum milk not only contains large
quantities Of vitamin A but also
antibodies that fortify the cal
against the various bacterial in
fections that cause contagiou:
