At a meeting <?f the growers held earlier in the day. however, so unanimous was the demand for at least a three-year con trol program that the two-year com promise was eliminated. In the dis cussions. it was apparent that many favored as- much as a five-year pro gram. 4 Farm allotments would be sta bilized on the bases of the 1940 acre age allotments. This amendment would remove the present provision in the act that the marketing quota for any state shall not be less than 75 per cent of the 1937 production of flue-cured tobac co in the state, and would provide instead that the national marketing quota for the next three years shall not be reduced more than 10 per cent below the 194-41 marketing quota and that the- farm acreage allotments for tin same years be adjusted uni formly in relation to the 1940 allot ments. with the exception that any farm allotment of one acre or less shall not be reduced below the 1940 allotment Also, one per cent of the national quuta is to be set'aside for use in making adjustments of quotas found to be inquitable 5 Provides penalties on excess marketing The amendment would permit the carrying over by producers of to bacco from one marketing year to another without payment of penalty on tobacco that is "within quota" in . the year from which it is carried ov \ ei or if a smaller amount of tobacco i.~ produced on the farm in the year to which the tobacco is carried over .- as !? ? make p<>ssible thi marketing Elder S.

Levies additional fines on ware housemen failing to cooperate in en | forcing observance of marketing quo-, {tas. This amendment would strength- j ? n enforcement by increasing the , fine upon any tobacco warehouseman j 'or dealer who fails or refuses, after notice of 15 days .to make a true re port or keep true records as required with respect to quotas. The addition al fine would amount to $100 for each 10,000 pounds of tobacco or frac I tion thereof, bought or sold by a warehouseman after the date of such violation, provided the fine does not j exceed $5,000. Warehouseman present gave their j wholehearted endorsement to the | proposal on tile ground that their future depended upon the success of the program. The regulations with respect to records and reports, it was assured, would be prepared after consultation with the warehousemen and dealers. Offer Blood for Poland Dr. Seymour J.

Downward Trend h Reflected In Honn s Construction Cost? s (Continued from page one) buildings. are unable to rent buildings. No one can predict just what the future holds, but it is fairly certain that present conditions warrant a continued expansion in Williamston's building program. A goodly number of people think so anyway, and if present plans develop the value of building contracts in 1940 should push that of 1939. Plans are already underway for the construction of several new homes and commercial A. M.

At the last-night meeting, County Agent Brandon stated that two dem onstrations had been planned in con nection with a movement to adopt a one-variety cotton for the entire county. Farmers Robert Everett, of Goose Nest, and C. Abram Roberson, of Robersonville, have agreed to make the tests and at least one oth er demonstration is being considered. There is much interest being shown in the one-variety cotton, and if far mers will cooperate in its advance ment. the movement will, no doubt, mean extra money in the pockets of cotton hwiww The next forum will be held on Thursday, April 18, and all farmers are urged to attend. About SB far mers were present for the session last evening.

Dear Mr. Robersou: "Penny wise and pound foolish" is an old saying, and it's true. Right now a farmer may save 25c to 50c an acre on his fei lili/.er purchase and mink he is wise; but if by so doing he reduces his yield $5.00 to $10.00 per acre, next Fall he may change his mind. There are bargain counters everywhere loaded with merchandise that nobody wants but the shopper who is look ing for price agd usually getting what he pays for, and no more. Satisfaction in quality and value when you buy bargain counter merchandise is the exception rather than the rule. Every ton of Royster's we can supply this season will be Sterling Quality?one quality only. We don't offer the farmer a cheaper grade to meet a cheaper price. You can do your customers no greater favor than to re mind them that? THEY GET EXACTLY WHAT THEY PAY FOR. Very truly yours, F S ROYSTER GUANO COMPANY WHR-jp W. H.
