new? Buy the new yellow lilac
primrose. This received much com
ment at the London Show this
year.
If you remember last spring with
the beautiful white birch tree, with
bulbs growing beneath it, it will
be advisable to purchase one this
fall. It is a rapid grower. The rose
hedge that is being used to fence
areas or to divide part of the lawn
comes in a beautiful crimson king
as well as white.
Dutch iris are favorite blooms
for a mixed spring bouquet. Pick
them up at the dime store, the
garden supply store, your grocery
store, or your nurseryman. A few
cents will bring you a wealth of
color.
Plant hollyhocks, delphiniums,
snapdragons, and larkspur now.
Watch the sunflower as it turns

it, if we practiced following our
goal for living, as it follows the
sun.

Once again we have selected
something from the works of Wil
liam Wordsworth for our Buds and
Blossoms poem. It is titled “To
Sleep.”
A flock of sheep that leisurely
pass by,
One after one; the sound of rain,
and bees
Murmuring; the fall of rivers,
winds and seas,
Smooth fields, white sheets of
water, and pure sky;
I have thought of all by turns, and
yet to lie
Sleepless! And soon the small
birds’ melodies
Must hear, first uttered from my
orchard trees;
And the first cuckoo’s
melancholy cry.
Even thus last night, and two
nights more, I lay
And could not win thee. Sleep!
by any stealth;
So do not let me wear the night
away:
Without thee what is all the
morning’s wealth?
Come, blessed barrier between
day and day.
Dear Mother of fresh thoughts
and joyous health!
One can always trust to time. In
sert a wedge of time, and nearly
everything straightens itself out.—

Record Yield of Corn Seen on
ridaj
Tar Heel Acres by Crop Folks^
G
According to reports from pro
ducers as of July 1, the North
Carolina Crop Reporting service
estimates that North Carolina far
mers will make an average yield of
50 bushels of corn per acre this
year.
If this forecast materializes, the
yield will be an all-time high for
the state and will exceed by two
bushels the previous record yields
made in 1960 and 1961. With an
estimated 1,316,000 acres to be
harvested for grain, production
would amount to 65,800,000 bush
els. This would be only about two
percent less than the 67,200,000
bushels produced in 1961 on a
6.4 percent larger acreage.
Acreages harvested and to he
harvested for grain in 1961 and
1962 are, respectively, the smallest
in records dating back to 1879.
The sharp reduction from the acre
age harvested in 1960 is due to
heavy participation in the Feed
Grain Program.
The 1962 estimated production
would be the State’s 10th largest
of record. It compares very favor
ably with the 1951-60 10-year av
erage production of 65,515,000
bushels. Whereas in most years
at least some sections of the state
are hit by weather unfavorable for
corn in its critical stages of
growth, the condition of this year’s
crop is from good to excellent
in all areas. Even in sections hard
est hit by excessive rains, damage
to the crop, with minor exceptions,
has been relatively slight.
Production of corn for the na-{
tion is forecast at 3,518,069 bush-'
els, or 2.9 percent less than the!
3,624,313,000 bushels (unrevised}|
harvested for grain in 1961.
