The lespedeza-grass combination
produces its peak in the summer

The best time to seed most pas

they can be successfully seeded in

Bears Destroy 10 Acres

He estimates that within the past
year, bears, which appear to be
more numerous than ever in this

10 acres Of corn on one of his

PAsTURAGE INCREASES

OAKLAND, Jan. 20-Results OF
work in pastures and corn con-
Quoted during the past several
years on the G. T. Beddingfield,
demonstration farm near here,
were disclosed today by Assistant
Farm Agent 7. S. Cash, of Trans
ylvania County. Pastures which,
in 1893 supported only two COWS
on eight acres, now have been in
creased to % acres and carry 16
cows. The corn yields which, in
ls4l was 80 bushels per acre, now
Is 1875 bushels.

1eet high, is the tallest masonry

Reports continue 10 come III telI-
ing of excellent crop yields on
North Carolina farms last year.
This is despite a season that was
unfavorable generally for crop
growth over most Of the state. For
instance, H. A. Harrington OF Merry
Oaks, in Chatham County, reports
80 bales of lint cotton on II acres
Of land. This is not So good as
yield Of nearly three bales per acre
on his Rutherford County farm but
it does show the results Of good
farming.
Wayne County farmers say that
they have harvested the heaviest
corn yields in the history Of that
county. ]. D. Brandon of Mt. Olive
conducted a corn-growing demon
stration in which he produced 40
bushels an acre on his test field
as compared with only 26 bushels
in his regular field. This was an in
crease of % bushels an acre in IA
vor of the newer method. Mr.. Bran
don also conducted an additional
demonstration in which he grew
an acre of corn on land where he
had grown Irish potatoes followed
by soybeans harvested for seed.
He side-dressed the corn with 800
pounds of nitrate of soda and made
yield of 70 bushels an acre.
Joe Sanderson of the Grantham
community in Wayne conducted one
of the corn-growing demonstrations
and produced Sc bushels on the
test as compared with IS bushels
per acre on his regular field. o. J..
Howell of Goldsboro, Route 2, pro-
duced &C bushels as compared with
48 bushels on his regular field. G..
H. Herring Of Goldsboro, Route 4,
produced As bushels an acre on his
test field as compared with 40
bushels in his regular field. He said
the only difference between his
demonstration corn and his regular
corn was that shown in the use
of hybrid seed.
In Vance County where the Hen
derson Kiwanis Club awarded 1925
in prize money for highest yields
of corn grown by young All club
members of the county, Willard
Dickerson of the Dabney Club won
first prize Of SIS with a yield of
1O1.1 bushels an acre. The Kiwanis
Club entertained IA of the top-rank-
ing corn growers at banquet when
the three highest producers told
the assembled business men how
they grew their crops. Frank Kit
trell Of the Zeb Vance club was
second prize winner with a yield
Of 100 bushels, and David Lee Hope
OF the Henderson Club was third
with a yield of 91.6 bushels. The
average yield for all Of the So boys
taking part in the contest was 1914
bushels an acre. I suspect that the
average for all corn production in
the county is not over % bushels
an acre-probably nearer 20. Farm
Agent j. w. Sanders says there
is much interest in building up the
acre yields and that these So boys
have shown that it can be done by
using a little more commonsense
along with good farming.
The corn growing enterprise in
Pitt County was especially success
full this past year if one is to be-
1ieve those who had a part in the
field demonstrations. They said the
most impressive feature Of the
whole thing was that Pitt farmers
learned that any man in the coun-
ty can grow from 40 to 100 bushels
an acre if he wants to hard enough,
and that he can grow this corn
more economically if he will use
good seeds, and will fertilize and
cultivate as he knows how. The
average of all the field demonstra-

NEW ATOM BOMB E POW ERFUL ONE, I5 REPORTED MADE,U.5.

BRIGHTON, England, April 2c.- Quoting information he said he had obtained from 'an American" dur ing his last visit to the United States, Prof Harold J. Laski de- clared yesterday that Ire U. S. has a new atom bomb powerful enough to "devastate Indiana and Illinois,
 Five of the bombs could "des- troy the whole of the United States south of the Mason-Dixon line, ' Laski asserted.
 Laski, who attacked the policy of secrecy surrounding the develop ment of atomic energy in an ad- dress before the British coopera- tive party conference, declined to reveal the name of his source, but ! declared that the new bombs were much more powerful than those dropped on Hiroshima and Nagas- aki.
 The policy of secrecy was des- oribed by the chairman of the British Lahor party executive com mittee as "an onslaught on the well being of the human race"

State Department Makes Significant Move-Pur-

WASHINGTON. April p. = The State Department will extend tc hree Russian War Correspondents l potentially significant invitation to take a look at how America works and thinks and lives in oeaeetime.
 The three-Ilya G. Ehrenburg of Ezvestia, Gen. Mikhail R. Galak- tionov of Pravda and Konstantin M. Simonov of Red Star-came here to meet with the American Society of Newspaper Editors
 Their visit was planned by the newspaper organization to promote an exchange of ideas between the day by day historians of two of the worlds greatest powers.
 The Russian writers gave the country's top ranking news execu- tives bluntly frank idea of what they think about this country's press.
 Some of It was favorable: some of it, too, was sharply critical.
 That's the kind of a report the State Department hopes they will take home to Russia-one based upon a trained newspaperman s first-hand observations.
 Although it was confirmed offi- cially that the invitation will be extended, there was no indication yet as to whether it will be ac- cepted.
