by keeping seeding rates down.
Northern grown alfalfa, alsike,
and ladino clover are among the,
seeds which are indicated as
likely to be short. But farmers
can help themselves and their
neighbors by reducing seeding
rates, through use of mixtures
Cornell, in its January Dairy Farm
Service Letter, suggests alfalfa
clover timothy as one mixture to
stretch alfalfa. Six pounds of alfalfa
per acre in this mixture will give as
much hay in the second year as a
much heavier rate, if growing con-
ditions are favorable, the letter says.
Cloverhelps the yield in thefirst year..
Alfalfa-brome has proved of high
value in many areas. No doubt

new national park in Western

Thursday by a group from the
state meeting here with Tar Heel

from Caldwell county, Wilkes
county and Surry county, re-

plete flood control project be in
augurated in congress for the pro-

controlling the flood waters nee

control dam or dams at such sites
as the engineers of the govern

to create national park to be
known as the r. L. Doughton Ma

This is the time of year when a
II fellow feels like getting out and
kicking up his heels, like your calves
and colts do when spring comes around.
Your cows may feel some of the
same urge but in a more dignifid
way. But they need to be restrained
from going on pasture until your
pastures are ready for them. Other
wise they may undo all the good
work that you did last year in build
ing up your permanent pasture.
Grass gets started ON a healthy
growth as soon as the weather
begins to warm up, but if you
let your cows Craze before grass
has gained height and strength,
roots may be injured.
The extension experts on pastures
say it is best to hold the herd out
of the pasture until the grass has
had a chance to build up a little.
Missouri's extension service points
out that spring grass is 'washy" and
when you do turn your cows onto
pasture, they will need a large
amount of starch and fat to hold
their condition. Continue to feed a
small amount of hay and grain mix
for a week or two after they are first
turned out and on through the pas
ture season for your high producers.

One Of our most promi.

'Ts Gregory Peck the only

time we make a picture, every
producer clamors for him,
every role we cast cries for

why every studio in town

picture in town was discussed
with the hope that he might
play the lead. After seeing
him as Father Chisholm, ], too,
vote the Peck way.
I expressed a wish to have a
talk with him, for our previ.
Gus acquaintance wasn't much
more than a "How. do. you. do"
so he came to my house for a

Next year, the name OF
Gregory Peck probably will be
on every poll, for there's no de-
nying it, he's headed for big
things, and his very sincerity
makes me believe he'll get
them. There is no nonsense
about him.
Peck is athletic, loves foot.
ball, and prize fights. But most
of all, he loves his job in the
