The WoolIy Bears Predict the Winter
Will Be Both Mild and Severe Here

At this time of year there al
ways is a lot of talk floating
around on what the winter will be
like.
AS usual, we have gone out to
consult the woolly bears-those
fuzzy caterpillars that are found
crawling about these days. Ac-
cording to their markings, the
woolly bears are supposed to indi-
cate the severity. or lack of it,
of the coming winter.
Not only do I question my own
woolly bears. but in the interest
of science try to find out what
the woollies are predicting in
other sections.
Now take New York State.
understand they are all set up that
way for dilly of a winter. They
have out the old red flannels and
have sharpened up their skates.
And they have got out the snow
plows to keep the paths open be-
tween Cne houses and the barns.
Our woolly bears are bit less
emphatic about our winters. Our
survey, like the election polls
range all the way from severity
to balmy mildness. If we take
the average we will come up with
a prediction that runs something
like this:
Fairly mild, with little or no
snow up to Christmas. January
will see more sustained cold, with
a moderate amount of snow, and
IN February we can expect to get
a few days of good, old-fashioned
snow.

Results Given
ION 20-Yeur Tests
'Of Fertilizers
BY the Associated Press

BLACKSBURG, Va.-Eight con
clusions have resulted from al
experiment which has been under.
way for two decades, with alter.
ations.
The research, conducted by the
Virginia Agricultural Experiment
Station, was aimed at finding
among other things, the influence
OF farm manure. nitrogen, phos.
phate and potash used alone anc
in various combinations, on the
yields of corn, wheat and two
years of hay in a 4-year rotation
The eight conslusions reached
IN the experiment are:
Manure applied once in -four
years is as good as annual appli-
cations when the total amount
applied in the rotation is the
same.
Farm manure alone, farm man.
ure and phosphate, a combina-
tion of phosphate and potash, OF
a combination of nitrogen, phos-
phate and potash resulted in sub
stantial increases in yield over
check plots or plots receiving un-
balanced fertilizers.
Phosphate is the first fertilizer
nutrient which becomes limiting
to corn yields. Later, potash be-
comes limiting.
Stands of clover are difficult to
establish and maintain where
either phosphate or potash have
not been applied.
Superphosphate is superior to
rock phosphate when used in
amounts to supply the same total
p-2 O-5 on a soil with a PHI be-
tween 6.5 and 10.
In the residual study, yields o1
corn and wheat were maintained
for four years after fertilizat tion
was discontinued. Then they be-
gan to decline. Yields of hay began
to decline almost Immediately.
The additions of nutrients not
originally applied resulted in yields
essentially as good as the best
fertilizer treatments.
Yields of crops grown in rota,
ton are considerably higher than
when grown continuously.

Many times during the walk, say
I"heel" over and over again, in
Ia firm, quiet voice. and at the
same time draw (not jerk the
leash steadily back toward you
until he is where you want him

ward or to lag back, repeat often
the word 'heel" and accompany
it by that same drawing of the

meaning of the order-and usually
he will learn it quickly if he is
well taught-try him without the

Tests Show Value
OF Fertilization of
Permanent Pasture

Scientific facts to back up the
farmer who top-dresses his per-
manent pastures properly are
cited by DR.. II. L. Dunton. head
Of the vPI Agronomy Depart
ment.
For instance at the Char
lotte branch Of the VPI Agricul-
|tural Experiment Station. a WE'LL
|fertilized ladino clover-orchard
grass pasture produced six times
las much forage as an unfertilized
area over q four-year period. The
fertilized pasture yielded nearly
Is tons yearly of high-quality
lladino clover-orchard grass forage,
in which there were practically
Ino weeds. The unfertilized area
| gave about 1a-ton per acre of a
poor quality feed, mostly weeds.
This experiment was conducted on
q Cecil soil.
At the Orange branch. on q
productive red soil. properly top
dressed pastures yielded over .
ton per acre more of ladino and
lfescue than did poorly fertilized
AREAS. At the end Of two years
theSe is q much better stand Of
lclover in the well-fertilized pas
lture than in the poorly fertilized
one.
Tests on Bluegrass.
Tests on bluegrass-white clover
pastures conducted in southwest
Virginia for a 12-year period
showed that on the average WE'LL
Ifertilized pastures gave more than
twice the yield of poorly fertilized
ones. Not only was the yield
doubled, but the fertilized pasture
contained an excellent blue grass
white clover sod while the poorly
lfertilized pasture was mostly
|broomsedge. with q little blue
grass and practically no White
Iclover.
DR.. Dunton says farmers who
Ifertilize properly get not only
high yields of quality forage but
two weeks earlier grazing in the
spring and two weeks later graz
ing in the fall. Top-dressing also
enables pastures to make a quick
comeback after grazing. or when
rains come after dry weather. A
well-fertilized permanent pasture
should furnish from 210 to 24O
days of grazing each year.
Further information on top
dressing pastures can be had from
county agents Of the VPI Agri-
cultural Extension Service.

We've started feeding him grain

he actually knows enough now to
follow me into his feed lot when
he sees me coming with the bucket
Our steer isn't made exactly
right, being thin in the places he
should be thick. and thick in the
places he should be thin. There
is some doubt whether we should
try and fatten him or should send
him over to Charles Town for the
next race meeting.
I'll bet he could give a lot of
those fancy race horses a run for
their money. When he gets his tail
up over his back. he certainly can
cover lot of ground in a short

Dogs
By Peter Boqes

Recently l heard that scientists
are at work on the theory that
certain dogs can acquire hay
fever. Presumably. too. they can
carry its germs in their coats To
their owners. The new idea about
canine allergy to this most pes
tilential of summer and autumn
maladies is rather interesting.
The scientists found several
dogs which seem to have well-de-
veloped cases of hay fever. One
of them was in agony after it had
been anywhere near a patch of
ragwood. Except in the ragweed
season, it was in fine health. But
ragweed pollen set it to sneezing
coughing and weeping and, in
short, to exhibiting all the other
wretched symptoms of hay fever.
The same remedies which help
human hay fever victims have
been found even more helpful
with dogs. From all this, the Sci
entists are studying the dogs
symptoms in the hope that they
may yield to some formula of
heaASng which may lead the way
to hay fever cure for people as
well.
! More power to them! They and
their canine patients will become
mighty benefactors, if the idea
works out.
During the spring, summer
and early autumn months, your
outdoor dog will fare best if he
sleeps on dry. clean. bare boards
in the bottom of his kennel house.
But in winter he needs warmer
and better sleeping. Buy a bale
of cedar shavings or a bale of
clean hay and spread it thickly
on the floor of his house. Il sug-
gest cedar shavings, not only be-
cause of the pleasant odor they
give your dogs coat, but because
f1eas hate CEDAR.
Let the kennel house face the
south and let it's floor be at least
a foot above the ground beneath,
with an ample runway leading up
to it. Have the kennels door as
narrow as possible to admit the
dogs body comfortably.
Don't get the false idea that
your dog does not need a constant
supply of fresh water. He does, as
in summer.
Let him burrow deep down in
to his bedding on cold nights,
the flooring too high to admit
the icy dampness of the ground
and the one narrow opening of
the house facing southwark.
BY the way, see always that
the bedding is kept clean and
dry. Especially, see that it is kept
dry.
