Sudan Grass Helps To
Relieve Food Shortage
< i?a9*on College, May 14.??o?
many farmer*, whose winter grain
?<*ded for feed has been winter-killed,
Sudan gran* is an excellent subitteitc
, r.u j* 8. L. Jeffords, extension
crop specialist. Sudan grass makes
good temporary pasture, v when two
fields are grazed alternately, carrying
a* many as three cows an acre for
six months. In 7f> or 86 days Sudan
giass will make a good grade of hay;
by cutting earlier, two or more crops
| of hay may be harvested, or a crop
of hay and some pasturage.
For hay crop or forage, Sudan
grass need in broadcast or drilled at
the rate of 20 to 36 pounds an acre,
depending on soil fertility, says Mr.
| Jeffords. Reasonably fertile land
| may give a fair yield without fertilizer.
I>and well fertilized last year
j may need only a top-dressing of
quickly available nitrogen when the
'crop is about a foot high. Poor
land will need 300 or 400 pounds of
.complete fertilizer ut planting.
Sudan grass, does best if planted
' only after the ground is thoroughly
' warm, or late corn planting time,
and will give a cutting of hay planted
as late as July, with suitable rainfall
The first cutting may often be secured
in seven or eight weeks. It can
be fed to all livestock safely. Planted
thickly, it produces a fine-stemmed,
eusily cured plant. It is ideal for
cutting when in full bloom but for
more cuttings must be mowed sooner.
Some farmers, says .Mr. Jeffords,
plant 16 or 20 pounds of Sudan grass
mixed with three or four pecks of
cowpeas to the acre and get just as
big a crop of a better hay but can
cut only one crop.

Veteran Racer i
Commit a Suicide
"
Do? Angelea, M*y 14.?A veteran
ami steel-nerved racing car pilot, who I
during a career of many years on )
the fattiest board tracks of the court* i
try, laughed at death aitti lived a life
of chance, today was dead, sheriff's j
deputies said, because he had become ]
excited over a small brush Are on hii i
mountain cabin site. v i
Dave I/ewis, who jockeyed speed* t
ing automobiles with Barney Oldfield,
Teddy Telaelaf, JSddie Rick- j
enbacker and others of the old \
school, was found dead yesterday on 1
his St. Frattcisquito Canyon ranch, j
Although his relatives scoffed at the
r^oort of officers that he had lost ]
his head and killed himself when a ]
brush fire he had started got out of i
control, the deputies said they were ]
convinced that the veteran driver hgd a
become excited when he thought ho
had started a dangerous fire and shot i
himself. i

, Popular Insecticide
Dealers who aim to stock the pro- *
ducts for which there is ready de- 1
mand will be interested to hear that j
Liquid Veneer, Corporation of Buffalo
New York is now manufactur- !
ing Fly-Flu and directing its sale and J
advertising. , 1
It therefore is certain that the ]
product has no superior and that the (
necessary advertising will be put be- .
hind it to make it move rapidly. 1
The first campaign sponsored by the ,
new manufacturers is now appearing
in The Chronicle and is attracting a j
'great deal of attention because it is
j entirely different from any insecti- 1
vide advertising that ever has been
published.
Dealers should take advantage of
this advertising by displaying FlyFlu
prominently and by suggesting,
its purchase to their customers. j'
Dealers who have not stocked it!
can secure a supply quickly from'
their jobbers. It is certain that a
great many people who read the Fly-1
Flu advertising in The Chronicle will j
insist upon using this particular product

Says The Kershaw Era
The stock of merchandise of W. T.
Stover & Company at Heath. Springs
was badly damaged by fire of unknown
origin last Thursday morning
iarly. As told to The Era reporter,
some men leaving early Thursday
for a fishing trip discovered smoke
issuing from the store room and reported
the fact to Mr. Stover, who
lives several blocks from the store.
On going into the store Mr. Stover
found a large hole burned in the
feor, the counters, show cases and
goods nearby badly burned and scorched,
and the entire stock of goods
badly damaged by the heat and
smoke. It is now known how the
fire Qriginated nor how long it had
been burning, but the damage done it
was inferred that it started aomer
time before being discovered, but was
kept subdued by the failure to get
draft to speed its progress. We failed
to learn the approximate loss or
amount of insurance.
