POINDEXTER, 10-16-4tM Sheriff Wilkes County Raleigh.—North Carolina farm ers are again in a favored position regarding their 1944 crop year according to Frank Parker, crop reporting service statistician of the N. C. Department of Agricul ture. Of course setbacks, floods, droughts, insect pests, late sprin.g plantings, extreme shortage of la ' bor. war time prices of things farmers must buy, lack of ade quate transportation, and other handicaps have been experienced. The big thing is that despite all all these, by overtime work of “old men, wives, children, and the rare real farm “young” men, farms have produced almost rec ord crops. Prices have been gen erally good, but comparable profits with other industries are rare. Tractors have often been operated all night. Livestock was eared tor during the dark morn ing and evening hours. There was no loafing on the farms. The labor shortage is telling now. declared Parker. The harv est of cotton is far behind, prep aration for fall seeding of small grains has been delayed, and hay making extended over a longer period than usual. The fall season has not been as dry a.s usual. Thu.s. fall plowing was permitted when time would allow. Sojbean prospects are poor due to insect ravages, late summer pasturage about average for most counties, and farm tniit crops better than usual. Tobacco, cotton, and peanuts as cash crops made extra good yields per acre. Yes sir. North C'arolina larmers are sitting in the saddle in spit,’, of many handicaps, said Parker. Early in .-Yiigust crop prospects were nnusually good, after serious dry conditions prior to July 13th. Corn promised to produce record yields. While still good, rain storms and dry weather in many areas have reduced the prospective crop. The fodder has turned dark from mildew, making its feeding ;'alatabili(y less valuable. Vet the 21.’> bushel yield per .acre is exceeded only liy the record yields of 2 2 bushels produced in !''41 and 1943. 'I’he total crop of bushels is fourth high est on recerd, despite attractive ness of coii.Petitive crops. Hay CHIPS are showing up well for 194 4 despite variable and of ten unfavorable dry and wet con ditions. The average all hay Oc tober yield estimate of 0.94 tons per acre is about the same as last year’s yield and 3 per cent above the 10 year average, according to Parker. The state’s production of 1,204,000 tons is larger than any hay crop produced in the state excepting last year’s record pro duction. Pastures have been extremely variable. Eastern Carolina simply had no pastures prior to mid-July. The western counties were dry to early August. Since then condi tions have improved and pastures are in much better shape. How ever, reported conditions is still one point lower than the 10-yea'' (1933 42) average for October 1. Dr. E. S.

Richard Ira Bong, lead ing American ace, has run his string to 30 Japanese planes shot down. Recently returned to action as a gunnery instructor of the far eastern air force, the Poplar, Wis., llier was credited officially with downing two more enemy air craft. It had been understood that Major Bong, on his second tour, would make no combat missions. But he accompanied his “class” of lighter pilots on a recent mission and they were jumped by more than a score of Zeros. Their teacher went to work. In rapid succession, he sent two down in flames. When Hong lefl the i'acific af tor his first tour he was credited with 27 planes. However, he was sure he had downed a plane over Hollandia harbor although no one else saw it fall, and it was listed as a probable. He pinpointed the position. Salvage crews were .sent out by Maj. Gen. Ennis Whitehead, com mander of the h’ifth air force and located the wreckage at the indi cated point. That gave him his 28th. Major F.

Robert J. Conder- man. Marine aviator, had been killed by the Japanese in their Initial attack on Wake island. Af ter persistent efforts to enlist in military service had been unsuc cessful because ot his age he learned to fly at his own expense, saying that he planned to buy a plane of his own to go and fight the Japs. Finally accepted by the Marine corps as a mail officer because of previous postal experience, he went overseas with the First Ma rine division. On Guadalcanal he spent most of his spare time hunt ing Japs in the jungle and is credited with a number of kills. After contracting malaria he re turned to the United States and was assigned to Camp I.,eJeune as camp mail officer in charge of the 11 postoffices on that post. Conderman’s new assignment of duty will again take him to the Pacific war zone as a mail officer.

Bomb e r s Plaster Borneo Refineries Allied Headquarters, New Gui nea, Oct. 13.—Five groups of hea vy bombers, escorted by fighters, plastered the oil refineries at Balikpapan, Borneo, Tuesday, it was announced by headquarters. A total of 135 tons of explosives was unloaded on the vital petrole um center which produces 15 per cent of Japan’s aviation gasoline. It wa.s the sixth and heaviest raid in the neutralization campaign against Balikpapan which was be gun recently. This raid also was the first es corted attack on the Borneo base. Fighter planes flew over 1,500 miles to protect the heavy bomb ers, believed to be the greatest op erational distance for fighters in the history of aerial warfare. Gen. Douglas MacArthur’s com munique said the cracking plant at Balikpapan had been rendered totally and probably permanently inoperable, and the paraffin re finery was heavily damaged dur ing the latest assault. Thirty-six Japanese fighters were destroyed, with 10 more probably, during Tuesday’s raid. American lossc-s were three bomb ers and one fighter.

Although the demands of War for Pulp- 'wood are far greater than the supply, the emergency is being met the American Way—hy doin^ something about it. This Battle Is Far From Won The products of Pulpwood—Paper and Paperboard-are classified by the War Production Board as the Natioris Number One Critical War Shortage. The shortage is still serious and the more men we ship over seas, the more territory we occupy, the more shooting that is done, the more pulpwood will be needed to deliver the goods on schedule.
