Up until now, we’ve always
thought that blueberries and
huckleberries were one and the
same thin^. And, to tell the truth,
a tot of other New Bernians have
probably shared our ignorance.
The chief difference, we figured,
tvas the fact that huckleberries
used to grow wild rather abund
antly in these parts, while blue
berries in recent years have been
grown commercially. In other
words, according to our notion, a
blueberry was a tame huckleberry.
People in Maine, where blue
berries are eaten three times a day,
know better. They grow so many in
the New England state that an
army of extra pickers is brought
in from Canada during a six-week
season that reaches its climax in
August. Confuse a huckleberry
with a blueberry in Maine, and the
natives will get you told in a hurry.
To give you an idea of the blue
berry’s popularity there, they even
put the things in their flapjacks.
With so much maple syrup around
— down here the pure stuff costs
a fortune — it would never have
occurred to us that a New Eng
land pancake needs further glam
our.
New Bernians seldom take the
trouble to prepare them, but they
like corn muffins for breakfast. In
Maine, they prefer muffins at
breakfast too, but their choice is
blueberry muffins, eaten along
with eggs and bacon.

The grain business in North Car
olina is booming.
During the past 10 years the
number of commercial grain firms
operating in the state has increas
ed from 270 to 430.
This increase has accounted for
the storage capacity for grain
shooting up from a total of 7.5
million bushels in 1951 to 24 mil
lion bushels in 1961.
Wiliam E Lane, head of the
grain marketing section of the N.
C. Department of Agriculture’s
market division, says that the de
mands on his section for manage
ment know-how from operators of
grain elevators and other facilities
has more than tripled.
So much has the demand for
information in assistance and plan
ning in grain facilities manage
ment increased that Lane has put
into action a complete program
including specialized assistance in
that growing phase of the industry.
William G. Parham, grain mar
keting specialist, is in charge of
the management program under
Lane’s direction.
The previous program of assist
ance in the field of management
was divided among other .special
ists in the section and added to
their grain work.
The new comprehensive pro
gram permits better application of
the grain section’s resources in a
more effective manner toward as
sistance in commercial storage and
handling management. Lane said.
The new program includes plans
for expansion of services so that
a complete study can be made of
the management programs current
ly being used in elevators and feed
mills in North Carolina.
This plant study will permit ana-
lysation and evaluation of the vari
ous programs pointing to recom
mended changes in personnel, traf
fic management, grain flow pat
terns, handling equipment, farmer
relationships, and storage and mer
chandizing programs.
Assistance in these areas of the
state’s very important “agribusi
ness” in grain have already begun,
for Parham is already working
with five firms requesting aid in
this first month’s operation of the
management program. Lane said.
Another feature of the new pro
gram includes training of new man
agers of grain and feed facilities
in problems relating to all phases
of the grain handling and merchan
dizing business through schools
and short courses.
Sometimes management prob
lems are built into new facilities
at the start. Provisions of the new
program call for planning assist
ance where proposals and plans
can be reviewed to aid in prevent
ing managment problems in such
areas as inadequate equipment
and improper flow-pattern arrange
ments.
On-the-job assistance is given
for grain elevator and feed mill op
erators to help improve all phases
of plant management, too. Lane
added.
In explaining the relatively rap
id build-up of the grain trade, re
quiring expanded services of the
grain section. Lane said several
elements were responsible.
For many years the state had
been far behind in providing ade
quate storage for the increasingly
shortened harvest periods when
the bulk of grain flows onto the
market. Too, cattle, hogs, and poul
try have greatly increased over the
past 10 years, requiring greater
quantities of grain feeds. These
facts, plus an increasing conscious
ness of needs for better and more
adequate storage to prevent loss
from insects and deterioration, and
to provide less expensive in-state
locations for the entire year’s feed
ing and milling grain supplies,
have given impetus to the increase
and expansion of facilities, he said.
The new program in management
helps eliminate deficits in efficien
cy in operations of grain facilities.
and will go a long way toward
preventing problems from occur,
ring in new operations. Lane said.
In speaking of the management
program, John A Winfield, markets
division head said, “It seems to
me that in grains especially, the
application of business-like meth
ods, or application of the ‘agribus
iness’ feature as it is called, is
most important. This program will
help insure that those methods
are applied.
“Unlike many other agricultural
products, grain can follow many
paths before its values arc realiz
ed in final consumption. Its fle-
ments may wind up in beverages,
plastics, medicines, breads or otbd'
items, or it may take the long way
around and land on the dinner
table as a sizzling steak. It is a
most essential element in the agri
cultural, and consequently the
over all, economy of this basically
agrarian state, and it is only natur-l
al that it should receive the best;
in attention in our state’s faim
program,” Winfield added. ;
