Cannon show no letup for the good farmer. Mr. Cannon gave these reminders: Agronomy Piant cowpeas, soybeans, or velvet © | beans now. These crops can be used for grazing, hay, or soil building. If the acreage of prospective sum mer forage crops is not sufficient for farm needs, plant additional acreage after thorough preparation of soil. Plan for grazing during a possible late summer drought. Get peanut harvesting equipment and supplies ready. Use mowing machine to clip weeds in permanent pasture. Plant 1 grain sorghum now for October grain. Watch out for cotton boll- worm. For effective contol, poison 1 before worms are full-grown. Kill the boll weevil. Horticulture Grow plenty of vegetables in gar dens for canning adequate supply for home use next winter. Pull sweet corn shortly before mealtime or be fore canning; it loses its sugar rap idly. After harvesting place fruits and vegetables in the shade at once to hold their quality and vitamins. Set out tomato plants for a fall crop. Dig early sweet potatoes for early sale when yields are 50 to 75 bush- 1 els per acre. Don’t let the garden lag; keep up the plantings. Insects and Diseases Keep up the weevil fight. Spot cotton fields where wilt losses are present. Fight the housefly by ail available means. DDT and other materials such as lindane are avail able, but use all methods. Control Mexican bean beetle with rotenone or cryolite dust or spray. Combat peach brown rot. Watch for screw- worms. Requeen bees. Use Exten- . sion Bulletin 102, Garden and Truck [Crop Insects, and'extension publica tions on tobacco insects and diseases to fight the pests. ^ Agricultural Engineering v Have treftch, double-box, or other type of silo ready when silage is ripe. Use waste crank case oil to I aid in rust prevention on plows, discs and other bright .parts of farm ma- * i chinery. Check over farm machin ery and order needed repair parts. Get the mower in good running con dition for the hay season. Plan to water the garden this fall, using the well, small streams, or other avail- * jaible sources of water supply; see 1 county agents for information oa , garden irrigation.
