Your County
Agent Says
BY Charles ID. Raper

Corn yields in Columbus County
can be greatly increased by using
few more dollars worth OF fer
tilizer and a little less work. 4
little extra fertilizer can make
big difference in the yield of corn
and instead OF the county averag-
ing % bushels per acre we can
easily average IS to IS bushels per
acre with the only difference in
labor in harvesting the crops.
Recommended Hybrids for CO.
lumbus County are NC-27. Dixie
IL, or Dixie 81. Those farmers in
terested in growing white corn
should use Coker 81 or Dixie Il.
With one half of the crop land in
Columbus County planted each
year In corn with this land prop
erly fertilized we can produce over
3 million bushels of corn where
we are now only producing 80
600 bushels. Farmers wanting to
increase their corn yield should
plant their corn in 312 foot rows
and Is inches in the drill. II is
recommended that they use 400
pounds of 1873 under the corn
and side dressing of 200 pounds
OF ammonium nitrate or AM. or
500 pounds of nitrate of soda.
Amonium Nitrate this year can
be bought for 85c a hundred
pound more than soda and is act
ually twice as strong containing
twice as much nitrate per hundred
pound as Nitrate of Soda. In pro-
duclng heavy yields il is necess-
airy to cultivate shallow. Use a
peanut weeder Tor the first few
civilizations and lay by early when
the corn is about knee high. Last
year even a dry year and the most
unfavorable year we have had in
several seasons, but we had All
Club boys harvesting 90 bushels
d corn per acre using the above
recommendations.

action is not final, since the Iirst money bill

ever that the House appropriations Comit-

to departments which have not used up all

course suggested by Senator Harry f. Byrd,
of Virginia, which would require all GOV

carried-over funds and unspent balances

Americans First

DRESIDENT Dwight D. Eisenhower IS
now demonstrating the political talent
he used 50 effectively as Supreme Com
mander of the Allies during World War
II. and as Supreme Commander OF the
North Atlantic Treaty organization $ arm
ed forces recently. The new Republican
President is making careful effort to cul-
tivate the friendship of both Republicans
and Democrats on Capitol Hill.
The President is inviting many legisla-
tors from both parties to meals at the
White House, during which there Is ample
time for a complete discussion of the events
of the day. Presidents Roosevelt and Tru
man did not spend as much time with the
legislators as President Eisenhower is do
ing at the moment.
The policy has proved popular with
members of the House and Senate who
seem to enjoy the Presidential hospitality.
No doubt the Republican President is less
affected by the barrier of party affiliations
than are some lifelong politicians. A pro
fessional soldier. who is inclined to put
Americanism above craftsmanship Eisen-
hover naturally expects Senator's and Con-
gressmen to be Americans first. and mem
bers of a political party second.
