tion credit association first. If the
association is unable to make him
a loan in the emount needed the
farmer will receive a statement to
that effect and will be considered
eligible to apply for a loon from
emergency fund.
The regulations provide that the
largest loan to one fanner this year
is $500 and the minimum $10, but
loan may be made in an amount
greater than is actually needed to
cover the cash cost of purchasing
seed, fertilizers, supplies, feed. etc.
Loans will bo made for the purpose
of growing and harvesting crops, for
summer fallowing, for purchasing
feed for livestock; but not for the
purpose of purchasing livestock or
machinery, or for the payment of
debts or taxes.
Loans will be made only to appli
cants who arc cooperating with the
Production Control Program of the
Agricultural Adjustment Adminis
tration.
As in the past, the security for an
emergency crop or feed loan will
consist of a first lien on the crop
financed or on the livestock to be
fed. A tenant must also give a first
lien by getting the landowner to
waive h»s claim in favor of the crop
lien; but the landowner is in no way
obligated for repayment of his ten
ant's loan.
Checks in payment of approved
loans will be issued by the Regional
Emergency Crop and Feed Loan
Office „t Memphis. Tcnn.. and not
by the field supervisor of the loan
committee.
Mars
March an.
April are the best months for hatch-
ten seed to the spot and cover
lightly and firm the g r ound with the
foot. These spots should be six feet
apart in the row.
If the land is very sandy, or ha*
very much herbaceous growth on it,
bed and then proceed as where it has
been in cultivation.
Fields which once were in culti
vation. but have become so badly
eroded that they will not produce a
profitable crop should be reforested,
Barrett says. While most of the top
soil has gone in many instances, the
sub-toil is usually of such quality
that <t will produce a very satisfac
tory forest growth.
In addition to reforesting abandon
ed areas, the best care should be
given to existing forests through fire
protection, proper thinnings, and
cutting undersirable trees for fuel
because "a good growth of timber is
ere of the be-t forms of insurance
because it will not only grow in in
crement but in price every day.”

The army of screw worms which
has recently invaded the South
eastern States h^s attracted the usual
array of camp followers—peddlers
of fake medicines, treatments and
sprays. As a result, while entomo
logists af the Department of Agri
culture are telling livestock grow
ers how to protect their livestock
from the screw worm pest, the Food
and Drug Administration has step
ped in to protect the farmeis from
pocketbook parasites.
Dr. H. E. Moskcy. veterinarian of
the Food and Drug Administration,
has issued the following warning,
addressed both to livestock growers
and to sellers of products recom

"Experiments by entomologists of
this Department have showm that
pinetar oil of a specific gravity of
1.085 to 1.085 spread over wounds,
cuts, scratches or abrasions of ani
mals will prevent screw worm flies
from depositing opgs in the wounds
provided they are kept covered with
the pine-tar oil until healed. Benzol
applied to the wounds which have
already become infested with screw
w nns is the beat method now
known for killing the worms.
"In view of the seriousness c«.* the
screw worm fly infestation of live
stock throughout the Southern States,
man'- products recommended for the
trertment and control of screw worm
infe station have appeared ir. inter
state commerce. Reports of unsatis
factory results with some of them
have already been received. It is to
be expected that other products will
be on sale this spring. The usual
type of fly sprays and fly repellents
on the market, which have value for
a limited length of time as repellents
against the screw worm flies, horse
flies, bot -flies and grub flies.
"Products of this character when
shipped in interestate commerce are
subject to the Federal Insecticide
Act. The Food nrd Drug Administra
tion of the Department of Agricul
ture. which is charged with the en
forcement oi this Act, is obligated
to remove from interstate channels
any cf these preparations which will
not do what is claimed for them.
Action against many of the manu
facturers of such preparations bear

already been taken.”
