SIX State Will Get Its Fair Share Of Federal Fund Senator Bailey Says That North Carolina Will Not Be Slighted In The Matter Of Distributing WPA Funds. , SAYS MINIMUM TO 1 BE 18 MILLION Declares That While The ^ Report Is Not Official, i He Honestly Believes North Carolina Will ( Get That Amount j Charlotte, Oct. 10.?North Car- ' olina will be allotted not less ( than $18,000,000 and probably , considerably more instead of the j $8,000,000 announced as this ' State's WPA share in unofficial * figures from Washington, Senator Josiah W. Bailey declared here ? last night t "I had a telegram today from | e Washington saying the statement Jf published in North Carolina pa- j a pers from Washington that we J r would receive only $8,000,000 wasi not final and not official," said | r Senator Bailey. "I say Mr. Coan j (State WPA administrator) in' s Raleigh and arranged with him s for North Carolina's cause to be i] presented at once before the Washington officials. j b "If we are not satisfied I shall e ask the entire North Carolina t delegation and the Governor to ri appear in Washington before u these authorities and see that we I n receive our share of these funds." v Explains System The senator declared he had no 1 doubt that North Carolina would j get at least $18,000,000 for its projects. "That is about what we j are entitled to," said Mr. Bailey, j "Under the plan agreed upon' North Carolina is to receive 1.85 ]f per cent of the entire works re-1 lief fund. That, of course, does not mean we will get 1.85 per cent of the entire $4,800,000,000, for in the first place $800,000,000 of that amount has already been expended on relief, some of it in J -North Carolina in FERA and ib I f ERA expenditures. It means we j ? will get 1.85 per cent of that j e huge fund less the amount that b has already been expended on j g relief. "This is how it figures out," " the senator went on to explain j in more detail. "North Carolina 11 has approximately 35,000 heads' ? of families on the employable list e and each of these is alloted a j i minimum of $550. Figure it out1 e for yourself. You get around j t $18,000,000. That is about right, j s Of course, we will not get enoughj r money to carry out all our pro-1 f jects, for we have applications r for projects totaling about $100,-1 000,000. Naturally, a lot of us' t will be disappointed." , t i e Big Increase In Poultry Raising j[ . 0 This Industry In North Carolina Has Increased Into)11 A $13,000,000 A Year d Business For The Farm- c ers . The poultry industry in North | j. Carolina has grown into a $13,-, t 000,000-a-year business. Roy S. Dearstyne, head of the J poultry department at State Col-! lege, reported that last year j poultry was raised on 241,475 farms in the State. The U. S. Department of Agri- ;' culture reported that in January, j 1935, there were 8,829,000 chicks, valued at $4,944,000, on the farms | of North Carolina. It was estimated that $3,300,000 worth of chickens were eaten on ] the farms last year, while $1,540,- , 000 worth of birds and $7,072,000 , worth of eggs were sold. The value of poultry and its , products in the state in 1934 was estimated at $12,953,000, Dearstyne said. In former days, most North Carolina poultry was raised as a small side-line on the farms. Now much of it is raised by farmers and poultrymen on a regular commercialized basis. Nevertheless, a large number of eggs and a fairly large quantity of dressed poultry is still being imported into the State, Dearstyne added. Moreover, consumption is lower than it should be. This indicates that there is yet considerable room for expansion of the local poultry industry. Poultrymen are aware of this, and many of them are increasing their flocks, adding more equip ment, and improving the quality i of their birds. Improvement of flock quality | is important, Dearstyne declared, j and he is urging the poultrymen to eliminate low grade fowls and introduce only purebred chicks free from disease. Sometimes Best To Retain Cards Tobacco Growers Warned Not To Sell Any Part Of Their Excess Allotmenl Until They, Consult County Agent Tobacco growers are being warned not to sell any part ol their allotment cards without consulting their county agent. The agents will advise the growers whether it will be profitable for them to sell the unused part af their cards, said E. Y. Floyd, >f State College. This year, growers who sell part of their allotment cards will lot receive the adjustment payment. Whether a grower should sell lepends upon the amount he vould receive as an adjustment jayment, as compared with the ;otal amount for which he can lell the unused part of his allotnent card. Since the adjustment payments ire based on the amount of to acco sold, and the price receivsd, Floyd explained, only a qualiied authority can determine the imount of each grower's adjustnent payment. Consequently, Floyd said that 10 grower can afford to sell any arty of his card without conulting his county agent, and he hould not sell any without sellng all of the unused part. Sales of allotment cards must e made through the county agnt to be legal, Floyd added, and he agents have been instructed iot to sell any part of a card nless they can sell all that has ot been used by the grower to ,'hom it was issued. Farmers To Vote On Continuation 'orn-Hog Referendum To Be Conducted From October 17, Through 26; To Determine If New Contract To Be Offered The corn-hog referendum will e held at the county agent's ofice from October 17 through Ocober 26, according to county agnt J. E. Dodson. The office will te open each day for voting from o'clock to 5 o'clock. The question to be voted on is. Do You Favor a Corn-Hog Adustment Program to Follow the 935 Program, which Expires November 30, 1935?" All producrs who grow corn or hogs in 935 may vote whether they signd 1934 or 1935 corn-hog eonracts or not. Each eligible peron is entitled to only one vote egardless of the number of arms he may own or operate, nonatter where located. If the voter cannot cast his (allot in person on or before Ocober 26, he may place his markd ballot in a sealed envelope rith his name on the outside of he envelope for identification turposes, and mail or deliver it o the county agent before elecion for deposit in the ballot box n October 26. The Secretary of Agriculture las called this referendum in orler to determine whether the iorn-hog owners desire an adjustnen program for 1936. Unless he majority of growers vote to lave a new program it is likely hat the Agricultural Adjustment Administration will not offer a lew contract. Therefore, it is /ery important that every proiucer vote in order that the Secretary of Agriculture may have m expression from the majority >f the corn-hog producers. 1st Citizen?Who is that old man you are leading around blindfolded ? 2nd Citizen?It's Rip Van Winkle.

Tn Raise .Stnrlr a I I Farmers In North Carolina 1 Spend More Than $1,000-000 Annually For.^ Work Horses And Mules From Other States . P Every year North Carolina far- j mers are buying outside the State approximately ?1,000,000 worth of [work stock that could be raised| at home. This is clearly a waste of mon-, i ey, in view of the fact that it j c j costs almost nothing to raise a t few horses or mules for home 1 f use, said Fred M. Haig, professor j v ! of animal husbandry at State Col-1C | lege. i: When a mare drops a colt in j v j the spring, she need be away j a from work for only a few days. | In fact, it is better for the colt o and for the mare to keep her at It | work, except for a few days at a i foaling time, Professor Haig sta-11 1 ted. I f i On farms cooperating with the j s | AAA crop adjustment programs, there is a considerable quantity t; of land which has been removed from the production of cotton, toI bacco, wheat, or other basic t j crops. t This land may well be used to c I raise feed for work stock, Pro- g fessor Haig continued.

The number of horses and mul;s in the United States has been iecreasing steadily, with the orice going up, he pointed out [n North Carolina, the number Iropped from 408,000 in 1925 to 139,000 at the present time. Good work stock will always >e in demand, he observed, and ;he price will remain high as ong as the supply is low. Unless North Carolina farmers oreed and raise more stock at lome, he added, they will have to oay out large sums in the future or work animals, or else try to jet along as best they can with in inadequate number of animals o do the work.

Advise Against Selling Scrap ; Farmers Who Sell Their To- i I1 bacco At Their Farms Without Such Sales Being Covered By Tax-Payment Warrants Violate Contracts The Advisory Committee of v flue-curde tobacco growers, in a ( meeting in Washington today, ^ made recommendations to the j J Agricultural Adjustment Admin- j istration with respect to the sale r | of scrap tobacco and the 1936 f program. c J The committee made the following specific recommendations, g following a conference with J. v B. Hutson, Director of the Tobac- ^ co Division: c 1. That immediate steps be taken t oadvise all flue-cured to- j Q bacco contract signers with re-1 e spect to the terms of the con- a tract concerning the sale of scrap u tobacco. The contract provides v that all sales, including scrap, must be entered on the allottment q cards and covered by tax-^>ay-1 jj ment warrents. Contracting grow-1 e ers who sell tobacco at their farms without such sales being (s covered by tax-payment warrants I violate their contracts. j i 2. That growers whose base I , acreage is three acres or less be allowed to elect to plant their' full base acreage and sell their base production without payments under the contract in 1936 or r make the adjustment required of c other growers and receive pay- 1 ments. t 3. That a public meeting be j. held at some central point in c the flue-cured Belt in December JI at which the plans for 1936 would ; ? be discussed and at which all in- j terested growers would be given ii an opportunity to express their I views. ! / 11| leiiLiiuve pieuia wiui ica^cti. w scrap tobacco provide that a penalty of twice the value of the tobacco, or 4 cents a pound, whichever is greater, be assesed against | growers who have sold scrap tobacco in violation of their contract. Growers who refuse to pay these penalties would have all future payments suspended, taxpayment warrants previously issued canceled, and they would be liable to an assessment by the Bereau of Internal Revenue of one-third of the value of all tobacco sales from the 1935 crop. Those attending the meeting were: E. Y. Floyd, Raleigh, N. C., in charge of the AAA tobacco program in North Carolina; J. T. Hall, Woodsdale, N. C., chairman of the advisory committee; J.
