FARMERS ARE ASKED
TO REDUCE ACREAGE
Henderson, Dec. 31 An appeal by
the board of governors of the Tobac
co Association of the United States
for reduction of the tobacco acreage
in 1931 was made public here today
by A. T. McNeny, secretary of the
Henderson tobacco board of trade.
The appeal was based on resolu
tions adopted at the annual meeting
of the board in Richmond, Va.
"Grow less tobacco but make it
good" was the gist of the statement,
voiced after a review of the "steady
price decline" of bright leaf tobacco
in the last three years.

suffered by tobacco growers this

bacco now in warehouses will tend to
lower the 1931 price unless acreage
is reduced.
"No other state in the Union is
making greater progress in agri
cultural extension work than North

home agents have been able to work
in their counties over a long period
of time."- J. A. Evans, assistant chief
of Extension work. Washington. D.
