PAGE FOUR CLUB GIRLS GO TO CAMP TUESDAY Martin County 4-H Girls Will Leave Here Next Tuesday Morning * 1 By MISS LORA SLEEPER A very interesting schedule ha* been arranged for the girls and boys going from this county to Camp Leach next Tuesday for the annual 4-H encamp ment. "Nature Study" will be given this year by Mr. C. F. Wildman, of Bell Arthur; "Gardening" by Farm Agent Welch, of Beaufort county; "Every Day Etiquette," by Miss Pauline P. Smith, district agent of Raleigh;» "The Meaning of Posture" by County Health Officer Britt, oi Beaufort county and "Hugs which arc made with little trouble" by the three home agents. A camp fire has been planned for every evening with plenty of community singing, outdoor games and stunts to add to the pleasure of the campers. Miss Elizabeth Cornelius, State Girls Club Agent, will be present at t}ic camp Friday and speak to tfie campers on the "Meaning of Club Wc^k." All girls going to camp from Mar tin are urged to save all the silk scraps possible to help them in making their rug or mat, while at camp. The chap erones this year are Miss Eva I. Peel, and Mr. and Mrs. C. F. Wildman, of Bell Arthur. Three chaperones from each county will give sufficient help, it is believed. The camps are urged to meet i" Williamston at the Central Service station Tuesday morning at 10:30 o'- clock. All should carry a lunch. The supper will be cooked Tuesday evening in camp. All campers are asked to be in camp by Tuesday 3 p. in. HOUSING WILL CONSTITUTE A REALPROBLEM • Heavy Yields Looked For From Tobacco, Peanut, and Corn Fields ♦ —— Expecting, and reasonably so, a bumper production in hit corn crop, Mr. Claude (ireen, prominent farmer of near here, is now faced with the problem of properly bousing his prod use next fall. "I can fill this barn and that one over there," Mr. (ireen «.tat« - d when asked this week where he could house all of his corn cfop," bitt I don't know where I can house )he remain-, der, or one-third of the crop," he a.ld ed. As a whole, Mr. Green-has the most promising crops of any farmer in the county, and there are some mighty good ones here and tlwre. His tobac co, all topped, and as even as a-con crete road almost, is well developed, and, Mr. Green thinks, will weigh far more than did his crop last year. The quality will hardly be as good as it was last year, however, Mr. Green stated, explaining that the rains last week-end were a little too late to help the quality of his individual crop very much. "I don't know what effect the rains will have on other crops," he stated. Mr. (ireen js_ harvesting I sand lugs this week, leaving many of the bottom leaves in the field. His peanut crop, while not a perfect crop, was blossoming as a flower gar den, and the vines were of consider able size. Careful and thorough cul- I tivation was evident j.n the crop, ju. well as in all the others on the farm for no grass was to be seen in the planted fields. Mr. Green is looking for a good yield from his 17 acres of goobers. The farmer did not have much t.> say in connection with anticipated prices, the condition of .his crops in dicating that he tilled the soil for what it was worth. This year, Mr. Green cut down on his fertilizers, and while his crops are better than they were last year, he WMIS FOR RENT OR SALE: 3-ROOM bouse located on West Main Street, with all modern convenience*.

The long dry spell last; fall, the clean fields, and the efforts tol destroy them last summer all combined j was thought to have lessened the dan gers of early infestation this year, butj 'they ac here and are possibly here |to stay. Most of the farmers of this immedi ate section arc not making efforts this year to check them, believing that the low price of cotton will not warrant the extra cost of poisoning the weevil With the recent rains flic infestation is expected to increase. estimates they arc from 10 to 15 per I I cent short of a normally good yield J 'However, a visit to his fields wouldl .lead one to believe'that the crops are j as near jierfert as any one could grow.
