"North Carolina probably will have a 5-to 15- year period of grace after the present emerg ency as far as another polio ep idemic Is concerned," according to Dr. Robei? B. Lawson, asso ciate professor of pediatrics at Bowman Gray School of Medi cine. Dr. Lawson said today that after an epidemic has ran 1st coarse, it takes from 5-to 16 years to baild ap a new crop of ohildren and persons who will be susceptible to the disease. He added that every day somebody calls in a suggestion concerning a sourse of the dis ease. In making suggestions, he said, people cite one reason why a certain condition might cause polio without recognising a great many other reasons why it could not. .

These were a few of the sug gestions offered this week by State College Extension Service specialists for handling the big gest corh crop in the history of North Carolina. Hie suggestions were made at a meeting called by David S Weaver, assistant director of the Extension Service. Mr. Weaver outlined the problem by citing the latest crop forecasts. "North Carolina is expecting to have a 74-mlllion bushel corn crop," he said. "Last yea^ we had an above average crop of 65-milllor bushels, since the ten-year av erage is only 51 million. Count ing a six-million bushel carry over, we will have 80 million bushels to store or sell." In response to Mr. Weaver'* request for suggestions, Jack Kelley, extension swine special ist, said that obviously it's time to start feeding pigs"out to full weight again. "North Carolina farmers have often marketed their hogs at weights under 180 pounds," he said. "Feed short ages in past years have encour aged this trend. With a normal feed-livestock price relationship, farmers will now get their great est return by marketing hogs at or near 240 pounds." John W. Weaver, agricultural engineer for the Experiment Sta tion, suggests that farmers con vert any empty building they have into a temporary' storage bin. "The main thing is to get a roof over it and a floor under it," he said. The specialists agreed that the biggest opportunity for conserv ing the crop lies in the hands of the small fanner who usually sells his corn in the fall and then has to buy expensive feed during the winter. If small producers can rig up some satisfactory stor age facilities, they need not wor ry about the low price of corn this fall nor the high price of feed next winter. o The postwar growth of farm population in the United States came to a halt in 1947. o Growers in Avery County are producing more than two-thirds of the State's certified Irish pota to seed this year. 'IMWWWWWHWMWW Lawson declared. "We have known the cause of the disease for 25 years, and have amassed a great many facts through re search. "Yet, he continued, "every day someone produces a new sug gestion about the source of polio. Every suggestion has been gone into. People tend to pick out a little thing as a possibility without tracing the reason why that thing could not cause the disease." , The pediatrician listed the States showing the highest in cidence during the past 22 years. During the 22-year periods he said, 20 States have been repre sented as either first or second in polio incidence. He added that, since 1915, the Statqp showing the greatest In cidence are Connecticut, Massa chusetts, California, Minnesota, Montana, and Vermont. During the epidemic year/ of 1944, when North. Carolina had a large number of cases, Vir ginia is reported as having had a still larger number. A listing of the two leading polio areas starting with 1944 shows: 1944?New York and .Delaware; 1945?Utah and New Jersey; 1946?Minnesota and North Dakota; 1947?Idaho and Delaware, North Carolina and Texas will lead this year's list of offenders, present figures in dicate that the disease strikes simultaneously at areas which are far apart. "The disease," Dr. Lawson as serted, "will hit every State sooner or later." "The South, he added, has been relatively free of 'the disease in [comparison with the rest of the country; NOTIOH ?

A i u To Drive Safely Records of the National Safety Council show that farm residents have contributed more than their share to the poet-war increase in motor vehicle accidents, County Agent J. P. Choplln, for the State College Extension Service, said today in urging farm residents to practice highway safety. More farm people are killed in motor vehicle mishapB than in any other type of accident, the county agent asserted. Last year there were 7,000 fatalities and 250,000 lost-time Injuries, he added. "Farmers, especially, have to be good drivers, because most of their traveling is done on high speed roads," Mr. Choplin declar ed. "Their safety and that of their families depends on their knowl edge of the rules of the road." , ''When you are at the wheel, your life and the lives of others are in your hands," he continu ed. "You cannot afford to take a chance." ' The Extension Agent offered the following tips for safer driv ing: Have a courteous attitude.
