reports T. K. Jones, farm manage
ment analysist at State college.
i Since 1935 Mr. Fisher has co
operated with TV A and the North
Carolina Extension Service in test
ing high analysis fertilizers, con
serving the soil, and loiowim; ap
proved practices on his fiti acre
t farm In the Lake Toxaway com
munity,
I Mr. Fisher had been using 15
acres for cropland and eight acres
for pasture. A larger acreane of
better quality pasture was needed
1 to 'support mure livestock for a
larger incuiiie. Five acn s of the
i sleeper cropland were .shifted to
' pasture and seven acres more add
j ed by clearing woodland.
I Liberal applications of lime.
! phosphate, and other fertilizers
have resulted in much larger yields
of both crops and pasture. Al
though the cropland has been re
duced to 10 acres, more feed crops
are piuuuid than ewr before.
Corn yields have risen Irom 40 to
85 bushels per acre and hay yields
have doubled. A three-yeur rota
tion is followed in which two
thirds of the cropland is kept in
soil-conserving crops i-ach year.
To utilize best his limited crop
land and pasture acreage, Mr. Fi
sher turned to the production of
purebred poied lereiorus. All
cattle ra'sed on the farm are n
guttered or subject to registration.
Mr. Fisher is rendering a service
to the cattle producers of the com
munity in permitting his neighbors
to breed their cows to his pure
bred bull.
In addition to cattle, seven brood
sows were kept in 1947. Hogs were
raised mostly' on the range, with
grain feeding just before market
By conserving the soil building
up the land, and practicing sound
management principles, mtmbeis
of the Fisher family have made thi
litiui pay and as u result are en
joying a hiph standard of living.
Dr. K. P. B. Bonner, chairman
of the county board of commis
sioners, likr-ned county government
to a corporation Tuesday night at
the weekly meeting of the Beau
.ort Rotary club in the Inlet inn.
Gu s'.s at the meeting were Miss
Nell Stall ings, physical education
etcher at East Carolina Teachers
college, and Bill Kittrell, ECTC
student who will lead recreational
activities in Beaufort during the
summer months.
In his speech; Dr. Bonner point
.d out that coun'y government Is
' big business," and that as county
administration grows more com
p ex, it also crows more harassing
financially. He s.ild that 4;1 ye n-,
ago it required three mrn, the
sheriff, the register of deeds, and
the clerk of courts to run the
county on $20,000, whereas now,
the county has crown until It has
about 14 million dollars worth of
t ixil.l properly, and r55:),0O0 to
tal revenue.
As fjr tlie coun'y's financial in
deUedness, Dr. Bonn, r stated that
in six ye'irs. the debt was reduced
from approximately four and one
half million dollars to two and one
half million, lie explained that this
had been accomplished largely by
collecting delinquent and back tax
es. He added that it would not con
tinue to be decreased simply be
cause the d. liriquent and back tax
es had reached its "irreducible
minimum."
Warning thnt recently they had
only "gotten by" in niietin'j bud
get requests of various ounty
units such as the schools, board oi
health, and farm and home agent,
Dr Bonner said that inete.sed
budget requests, due largely to
increasing maintenance cos s,
makes it necess iry th:'.t every tol
I t do the work of two. Hevadiled
that county offices' requests w re
all based on ni rit but that com
missioners wou.d be hard nut meet
them.
Stressing the 'part the revenue
from liquor sales played in de.ruy
ing county expenses, Dr. Bonner
stated that should this revenue
be stopped, the taxpayer would
have to pav as high as S.I 25 on
every $100. rather than th $l.ftj
now being paid.
After his talk, he answered ques
tions on county government, asked
by Rotarians.
