Good Farming Hints
For Attention In July
Clemson College, June 30.?'Better
farming suggestions for July by ex-'G
tension specialists show no let-up for
the good farmer:
Agronomy.?When field work slacks
up, haul in grain straw, leaves, swamp
grass and other litter for the compost
heap. Sow peas,, soybeans or velvet
beans now and they will make growth
to turn under for soil building. If
old corn is not so good, it is not too
late to plant more.
Horticulture.?Remove all broken
and diseased limbs from fruit trees
immediately after harvesting. Pull
sweet corn shortly before meal time;
it loses its sugar rapidly. Place
fruits and vegetables in the shade at
once after harvesting, to hold their
quality. For second-crop Irish potatoes
use preferably Lookout Mountain.
Dig tulips and other bulbs, dry
them out, and plant again, in late
September.
Insects and Diseases.?Control tomato
insects and diseases with Bordeaux-lead
arsenate spray. Remove
and burn corn plants infected with
smut. Examine banded apple trees
every 10 days and destroy codling
moth larvae. Dust cotton with calcium
arsenate if boll weevil infestation
reaches 10 per cent. Transfer
and requeen bees. Control Mexican
bean beetle wtih magnesium arsenate.
Agricultural Engineering. ? Have
trench silo ready when silage is ripe!
Repair and construct needed farm
buildings. Plan to install water system
and other farm conveniences.
Continue the two-horse cultivator, setting
sweeps for shallow cultivation.
Investigate poss>j|?fces of small'
streams for irrigmmK 'gardens and |
truck. Recondition dusting machine
for poisoning boll weevils.
Temperatures above the 100 degree
mark were common in Kansas and
Missouri on Tuesday of last week.
Emporia, Kan., recorded 108 degrees,!
the third time this summer.
Andrew Sciaeea, 50, owner of a successful
