Little Billy Strom hardly had time to look up from his breakfast of
seversl cantaflmpes to have his picture taken. Billy lives on a Braw
ley, Calif.,, ranch, in the heart of the Imperial Valley melon region.
Farmers in the valley are now engaged in harvesting a crop, which, it
is expected, will exceed last year’s production of 23,000 carloads.

Dairy Herd
Wins Diploma
| Three more herds of dairy cat
tle in Georgia have qualified for
diplomag awarded annually to
herds which reach a required
standard of excellency in the pro
duction of butter fat.
| This is one of the phases of
Dairy Herd Improvement work
being carried on in the state by
the extension division of the Geor.
gia State College of Agriculture.
According to a recent announce
ment by Prof. Frank W. Fitch,
extension dairyman, the three
herds and the men who own them
‘have distinguished themselves in
winning this award. These men
have proved that high average
production can be obtained by
complying with the essentials of
liberal feedin~ good breeding and
intelligént management.
A. H. Barnett of Wilkes county,
with a herd of seventy-nine grade
and purebred Jerseys, made an
average of 307 pounds of butter.
fat per cow, J. W. Woodruff of
Cclumbus with twenty-forr pure
bred 'Jersays made an average
of 322 pounds per cow and A. L.
Thompson of Cochran, Georgia
averaged 301 spounds of butter
fat with sixteen cows,
These herds tests were super
vised regularly throughout the
testing year by a man from the
college, A. H. Burns, who has
had years of experience in this
work,
These men are to be confrat.
ulated vpon putting their herds
upon a profitable basis.

Gives Advice on
How to Plant
Soybean Crop
Dre to the limited supply of
soybean seed this season, as com.
pared with the increased demand,
the per acre seed cost has been
relatively high. !
In order that the greatest re
turn per dollar invested may be
gotten, Professor E, D. Alexander
extension agronomist at the Geor
gia State College of Agriculture,
suggests that the soybean ecro
should .be planted in rows of sug
ficient width to permit clean cul
|tivation until the plants get large
enough to successfully compete
’with the weeds and grass.
The best restlts the sal should
be thoroughly prepared by plow
ing or discing. The beans should
be drilled in rows twenty-four to
thirty-six inches in width. If the
land is capable of making twenty
five to forty bushels of corn per
acre no fertilizer, or at most 150
to« 200 pounds of svperphosphate
or 300 to 400 pounds of basic slag
is necessary, but on less fertile
land 150 to 200 pounds of good
cotton fertilizer should be profi.
table, On thin land cowpeas or
velvet beans will be of more value
than the soybeans. The crop
should then be cultivated a suffie
ient number of times to keep the
weeds and grass from too severe
ly eompeting with the soybean
plants. The O-too-tan and Laredo
varieties have given the highest
yield and best quality of hay.

this article pertaining to the Na

“This is the first Rotary . con

course, the entertainment fea

“To a much greater extent than
ever before, the thoughts of the
delegates will be turned towards
international relationships — fi

Still the week of the econvention
will contain more social activities
than usual for a Rotary conven
