In 1959, the- first year that es
timates are available, 4 per cent
of North Carolina's cotton acre
age was mechanically harvested.
In I960, the figure Jumped, to
12 per cent Upchurch expects
16 pur cent of North Carolina's
cotton acreage . to be mechani
cally harvested in 1961.

Special Notice Of Thanks
TO THE FARMERS OF THIS COMMUNITY who hive been so kind as to allow
us to serve them during the past farm season and have paid or properly arranged for
their accounts, our thanks. This cooperation on your part is greatly appreciated es
pecially in view of the very close margin of profit in, gasoline and oils. ; ; : :.
Now we must stress another point which we hate to mention but the higher cost of
operation, the close marginal profit and the ever existing interest rates require us to
make the following statements which we must carry out: 1
, ' 1. Unless your accounts are paid or properly arranged
. for, we will not be able to make further deliveries.
2. We ask you not to place your orders until you have
handled your account to the satisfaction of those con
cerned. . ;

protected; also to those dealers in nearby towns.
