r ■ prM#* ■' vfy* THE NEWBERKY SUN FRIDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1944 On The FARM FRONT By P. B. Ezell, County Agent Besides the usual harvesting of the main crops there is plenty of impor tant work to do in October, says County Agent P. B. Ezell, making these timely suggestions: Agronomy 1. Start now saving stable manure for next year’s crops. 2. Plant win ter cover crops to reduce loss of plant food and to add nitrogen. 3. Plant oats awrly for best results. 4. Sow barley as a source of excellent feed. 5. Get the best wheat for seeding im mediately after the first killing frost. 6. Destroy cotton stalks as soon as cotton picking is complete. Horticulture 1. Select varieties adapted to your section, and place order for fruit trees for home orchards with a reliable nursery. Get the Extension Bulletin 89, The Farm Orchard, for informa tion. 2. Cut out all dead branches on fruit trees before the leaves drop. 3. Thin out young turnips, beets, kale, spinach, and lettuce to hasten development. 4. Gather green toma toes just before frost and store in a cool place; even half-grown ones will ripen. 5 If the supply of greens is limited, plant immediately some Sev en-top turnips or other kinds. Agricultural Engineering 1. In planting small grain set fur- row-openers to run approximately three inches deep. This may prevent some winter killing. 2. Check over plows, cultivators, and other idle ma chinery on the farm for needed re pairs and cover all bright parts with grease or rust prevention compound. 3. Repair breaks or low places on terraces. Get Extension Circular 254 The Care and Maintenance of Ter races. 4. Check fire-places, chimneys and flues for needed repairs before cold weather. Plant Diseases and Insects 1. Destroy cotton stalks as soon as cotton is harvested to control boll weevil. 2. Treat all small grain seed. 3. Select sweet potato seed from 1 disease-free vines. 4. Use para- dichlorobenzene or ethylene dichlor ide by October tenth to control peach- tree borer. 5. Get Extension Circu lar 264, Nematode Disease of Wheat md Rye. 6. Fumigate stored grain. Re-queen the hives and feed bees where necessary. 8. Continue to guard against the screwworm. 1. Run cows on hay and corn fields to clean up after harvest. 2. Feed each cow in proportion to milk yield shown by milk records. 3. Cull low- producing cows to avoid wintering them. 4. Increase hay and silage as pasture grasses die. 5. Secure ser vice of good purebred bull to make calves more valuable. 6. Lime the pastures. 7. Plant winter grazing at once using four bushels per acre of a mixture of small grains with 15 to 20 pounds of crimson clover or vetch. Poultry 1. Move pullets to laying house be fore they come into full production 2. Clean and spray the laying house and delouse the pullets before putting them in it. 3. Keep grain before pullets in order to get them in good flesh before coming into egg produc tion. 4. Dispose of any light breed pullets that are not laying by the time they are 61-2 months old, heavy breeds 7 1-2 months old. 5. Select and sell nonlaying hens.
