43 Johnston Youths Enlist In U. S. Army Rucruiting Station In Raleigh Sets New Record In August—Accepts 43 Young Men From Johnston County For Enlistment Sergeant Jennings B. Smith, Officer in charge of the Army Recruiting Station in Raleigh, announces that he accepted 149 men for enlistment in the Army, at the Raleigh station, during the month of August. This is a record for the Raleigh station and is believed to be a recoi'd for the State. Out of the 149 men accepted for the Army, Sgt.* Smith states that 43 were from Johnston county, this is also the highest number of men ever accepted from this county in one month. Smith said. The Mobile Recruiting station •which is used by the Raleigh sta tion for three days each month, is making it possible for young men ■who are interested in enlisting to apply for enlistment and get all the necessary information without having to make a special trip to Raleigh. This Mobile station is to be in Dunn ©■n Thursday, September 12, and will be located at the post office building from 8:30 a. m. until 3:30 -p. m. Smith states that he will take ap plicants, give out information and give physical examinations, and if the men so desire, may accept them for enlistment at that time. TOBACCO STALKS SHOULD BE CUT By M. EDMUND AYCOCK, Assistant County Agent It is always a good practice to cut stalks as soon as the crop has been harvested. This is especially true with tobacco, because the stalks are still green and growing. If left ii the field after the tobacco is har vested they only produce a crop of suckers for insects to. feed on and raise a new crop of insects for the coming year. In view of the trouble that tobacco farmers have with in sects during the harvesting season, it is very probable that if everybody would cut the stalks as soon as the According to the Commodity Credit Corporation, the Form 1 Cotton Classification Memorandum (the Form 1 memorandum is the green card received by growers sho'wing the classification of their individual bales) -will be accepted as evidence of the class of cotton for the 1940 loan. In order to identify the bales, the gin or warehouse bale number must be entered on the Form 1 card in the proper place before the sample is submitted for classification. In accordance with Commodity Credit Corporation’s instructions to warehousemen, if members of groups have Form 1 classification memo randa, it will not be necessary to have the approved warehousemen re sample their cotton or to pay the charge of 15 cents per bale for class ification. The warehousemen will see that the classification as shown on the Form 1 memorandum is copied into the schedule of warehouse receipts as provided in the Com modity Credit Corporation instruc tions to warehouses. The Form 1 memoranda ■will be retained by the warehousemen. tobacco is harvested, we would have Young white men between the ageliggg trouble with insects, of 18 and 35, who are single with ^ second good reason for cutting 510 dependents, who can read and write and are in good physical con dition, are urged to contact Sgt. Smith at the post office in Dunn on September 12th, or to apply in per son or mail to the Army Recruting Station, Post Office Building, Raleigh, N. C. Young men now have the following assignments to choose from: Fort .Bragg, N. C.; Camp Jackson, S. Fort Benning, Ga.; Panama and Hawaii. If you wait you may be too late. Enlist now while you have these assignments to choose from. tobacco stalks and probably more im portant than the first, is the fact that the stalks should be cut and disked so that they will decay and make humus in the soil in time to be of some value during the growing of the next crop. If allowed to re main standing through the winter before being cut they are of very little value to the soil, and in addi tion to this are very much in the way in cultivating the next year’s Mrs H.

In addition to tobacco stalks, cotton and corn stalks should also be cut and disked in as soon as the crop, is hars'ested. Stalks should never be piled up and burned in the field. This not only robs the soil of humus that it should have, but if this prac tice is continued over a period of years it is very likely that soil of most types will become hard and cloddy. This same thing-holds true if the practice of burning grass that grows on the fields after cultivation is stopped is followed. Why don’t you try to take off a day and cut all your stalks before you go any further ■with your to bacco marketing? In the long run it will pay big dividends to you as an individual and to the county as a whole. cotton, corn, and sweet potatoes from which they will harvest and sell seed.
