Fanners FaceHeen Competition For
Egg Markets Which Are Out Of State
La. invite* Indicate that la IN
North Carolina produced 10 per
cent more eggs than she needed
This means that tome Tar Heel egg
producers had to look outside the
state (or markets.
There is competition for these
out-of-state markets, however,
competition that North Carolina
poultry men must meet to stay in
business.
Nortii Carolina's main egg com
petition comes from Iowa. Minne
sota. the Dakota*. Nebraska. New
Jersey, Pennsylvania and Georgia.
The competition is for markets in
the Northeast and along the At
lantic Seaboard, as far south as
Florida.
To help Tar Heel producers un
derstand their competitors, A. P.
Sicnibergei and Clayton P. Libeau
of N. C. Siate College studied
egg operations in other states.
Here are things they found:
<11 Greater concentration of hens,
per square mile, accomplished with
larger flocks or more farm flocks
tfian in North Carolina. Tlvis cuts as
sembly costs since it involves few
ar stops and shorter hauls in ob
taining loud*. It gives areas such
as Pennsylvania and New Jersey
an advantage in assembly costs of
one or two etuis per dozen below
most North Carolina communities.
<2> A majoriiy of egg producers
practicing quality control pro
srams. Such farms produce clean
eggs, and oil spray and refrigerate
hem in mechanical coolers to re
tain original quality. In contrast,
)il spraying of eggs is almost un
known in North Carolina and most
producers do not have mechanical
?cfrigeration despite the high tem
>eratures encountered for half the
rear.
1 3) Marketing agencies selling
;.000 or more cases of eggs per we
?k. Such large volumes make pass
ale the use or the latest technology
ihich. through involving high inve
tment costs, enables other areas
o reduce egg processing costs by
bou; one cent per dozen as com
ared with costs obtained by use
f technology currently in use in
forth Carolina. rrent volume
a North Carolin does not justify
he use of such technology, how

jutms with North Carolina. Prod
uction is as much as two doara
eggs per ben H'gW in "wpf ttntes
This gives aa advantage is produc
tion coats of as much aa I ceata per
dozen leas than aome North Caro
lina communities.
<51 Production programs built
for a market with producers mark
eting all their eggs through one
agency. This gives uniform volume
the year around and consequently
lower costs. North Carolina prod
ucers still shop around idr outlets
during the year. This places the
marketing ageucy at a disadvanta
ge not only in terms of costs but
also in being unable to guarantee
customers steady supplies. The lat
ter may often reuslt in loss of
customers.
16) Flexibility with regard to
change on the part of producers
and pride in their product. Newer
production and marketing techniq
ues are quickly adopted' products
are sold in new, clean containers:
and competition is welcome. In a
rapidly changing environment, relu
ctance to change places us at a
disadvantage.

Both Partners
Every father and son who are
jointly operating a (arm should
have a written lather-too agree
ment.
That's the opinion of Clyde
Weather*, (arm management spec
ialist for the N. C. Agricultural Ex
tension Service.
The agreement might be consid
ered the basis for a young man to
become established in (arming,
Weathers said.
A good written agreement will
take into consideration the skill,
experience and knowledge o( both
partners. It will also provide lor
the gradual increase in the partici
pation of the aon.
Verbal agreements are more
likely to result in misunderstand
ings than written agreements.
Weathers said. Memories are
sofetime short, particularly with
respect to details.
Before making a written agree
ment. however, Weathers said the
father should determine three
things.
First, he should know his son's
interest in farming. Second. he
should make sure that the farming
operation is large enough to sup
port two families. And third, the
father should consider his ability
to get along with his son for
eventually each partner must de
velop complete confidence in the
other's business decisions.
Mr. Posey was the son of the late
Ben and Elizabeth Hennessec
Posey and was a veteran of the
Spanish-American War.
Surviving are two sons, Ben Pos
ey Jr., of Key West, Fla., and Paul
Posey of Murphy; one sister, Mrs.
L. O. Rector of Morganton; several
nieces and nept^ews.
Services were held Monday after
noon in the chapel of Townson Fun
eral Home. The Rev. C. A. Smith
officiated, assisted by the Rev.
Thomas Truett. Burial was in the
Old Methodist Cemetery.
Active pallbearers were Arnold j
Dalrymple, Lowery and Don Gen

Joe Ray Warns Local Yout&Ulely T?
To Receive Filth Through Mails
?
A tearth ar
ia a few day*-)
A million American boy* and
giris of high school and junior high
school age may receive obscune lit
erature and pictures in the mail
this year, even though they neither
wanted or solicited it. Postmaster
Joe Ray said recently.
The Postal Inspection Service,
he stated, on the basis of available
facts has estimated that dealers
in smut are sending such mater
ials to children ait a rate of 700,000
to 1.0000,000 mailings a year.
"It is quite possible that child
ren here in Murphy are unwitting
ly being carried on lists used by
mail order pornography houses to
solocit sale;, of their filthy mater
ials," Mr. Ray said.
The local Post Office has joined
j in an intensive campaign launched
I nationally by Postmaster General
Arthur E. Summerfield to stamp
out what the Postmaster General
has described as "a vile racket of
huge proportions."
Using first class postage which
I protects the mail from inspection,
I filth peddlers send out lewd circu
i lars by the hundreds of thousands,
I soliciting orders from youngsters
| for obscene movies, photographs,
comic books, slides and similar
material.
"It is shocking to realize." Mr
Ray said, "that sales of such trash
amount to half a billion dollars a
year, by Post Office estimates."
In a recent speech, he noted,
Postmaster General Summerfield
I stated that police records and socio
logical studies show that a link ex
ists between addiction to prono
graphy and the increasing rate of
sex crime.
The Postmaster General also
pointed out that juvenile deliquen
cy and the distribution of porno
graphic materials have been grow
ing in parallel. A Senate committee
has reported that one out of every

hery, extortion, embezzlement.
"And." be added, "it is well
known that almost all sex crimin
als prove to have a long record of
obsession with pornographic and
sadistic material. Children who
may never be exposed to this ma
terial could nevertheless be victims
of these distorted criminals who
have been exposed to it."
Congress, as far back as 1865,
made it a federal- offense to mail
obscene matter. The Post Office
has lent its fullest support to such
legislation, buc commercialized ?
pornography has coniinued to grow,
it has doubted in just the past five
years, and the Post Office Depart
ment predicts that, unless a con
certed nation-wide "war" is waged
against it. it will double again over
the next four years.
Until recently, the Post Office
encountered great difficulty in
bringing these racketeers to bay
bccause the federal laws permitted
prosecution only in the courts at
the place of mailing. The porno
graphy dealers concentrated^and
still do ? in New York and Los
Angeles, where liberal court rul
ings over a period of time establish
ed virtlual sanctuaries from which
they could operate with impunity,
Mr. Hay said.
The Post Office in recent years
urged legislation which would per
mit prosecution not only at the
point of mailing of obscene mater
ial, but in the communities where
it is received? where, as Postmast
er General Summerfield has put it,
"the real damage is done, and
where citizens have an opportunity
to express their standards of mor
ality and decency."
Such legislation was passed by
the 85th Congress and signed by
President Kisenhower last year.
The Post Office Department, Mr.
Ixay said, is determined to use this
new legal weapon to the fullest
possible extent. It has already as
sisted in apprehending and prose
cuting dealers in obscenity such as |
recently received ? tea-years pria
iac maill^s made from California
aad Oregon
To make full nee of the sew law.
however, the Poet Office makes It
clear that It needs the cooperation
a I parents and decent-minded citi
zens throughout the nation. To
help achieve . this cooperation, the
Postmaster General and postmast
ers la every part of the country
have launched a special program
for nation-wide action. They believe
that, if this program is successful,
the victimizing of children by deal
ers in filth can be stamped out.

How Jwcij aluwM a biacto i lad?',
Every once in a while you'll find a tractor that is still !
going strong after forty or more years. But if you're
like the average farmer, your tractor lasts about ten
years. Will you have the cash to replace it when the'
time comes? \
There's an easy way to build such a reserve. That's t
by setting aside part of what your machines earn each
year in safe, sure Savings Bonds.
U. S. Savings Bonds are a real friend, too, when
? farm emergencies or illness strike unexpectedly. And
they can help send the youngsters to collf-c nr>d build
