Prospects Point To
71M08 Bales For
State Cotton Crop
Condition of Crop as a
Whole Is Reported
Good
North Carolina’s cotton crop im
proved materially during August, and
production prospects point to 710,000
bales. This is 57 per cent larger than
the 1947 crop of 452,000 bales, 22 per
cent larger than the 10-year average
production and will be the largest
crop the State has .produced since
1944. Prospective yield of 470 pounds
of lint per acre (indicative of nearly
a bale per acre) is 135 .pounds more
than last year’s yield, 115 pounds
above the 10-year average and the
highest yield of record.
Bolls matured rapidly during Aug
ust and a high percentage of the
crop, particularly in southern sec
tions, is open awaiting picking. Har
vest is progressing rapidly in south
ern sections under favorable condi
tions, and will become active in all
coastal and lower Piedmont areas
soon.
Over the State as a whole, the crop
is uniformly good. Moisture during
the growing season was sufficient for
good .plant development, yet the
weather was hot and dry enough to
limit .weevil activity. Most cotton has
completed fruiting leaving plants
with a heavy set of large size bolls.

Auto Department
Calls For Safety
| Urges Adults and Chil
dren to Observe Saf
t ety Rules
School bells are ringing again!
The Department of Motor Vehicles
therefore urges that everybody—chil-'
■ dren and adults—review the rules of
I traffic safety.
> “With vacation over, and children
> going back to school, drivers must b«
• extra careful. But all of us must see
i that the children are as safe as pos
t sible on our streets,” Col. L. C. Ros
t ser, Commissioner of Motor Vehicles,
i says. “And when I say all of us,
r that’s just what I mean. The safety
i of our children is a job for the whole
i community—parents, the police, school
. officials, teachers, and every club or
organization that numbers motorists,
. parents or young people among its
> members.”
The child safety campaign this
. month is part of a continuing traffic
. safety program coordinated in North
. Carolina by the Department of Mo
tor Vehicles, and sponsored nationally
i by the National Safety Council.
Back-to-school safety pointers Ros
, ser listed are:
1. Motorists, give the kids a
. “brake” by using special caution in
. residential areas, school zones and
wherever you see them.
2. Parents, see that your children
know the safest route to school —and
that they know how to behave safely
in traffic. And set them a good ex
ample.
3. Older boys and girls, watch out
for the smaller children. They follow
your example, you know—so give
them a good one to follow.
4. Younger children, obey your
traffic officers and school safety pa
trols. Keep out of the street except
when you cross with the traffic, sig
nal, and always cross at the intersec
tion, never in the middle of the I
block.

TWF CHOWAN HERALD. EDENTON,
Demonstrations In
Forestry Under Way
On Clwwan Farms
7 ’•
Assistance Being Given
By State Forester
J. C. Jones
1 Assisted by J. C. Jones, Extension
forester, several forestry demonstra
tions have been started in Chowan
County. A selective cutting demon
stration was layed out, marked and
timber estimate made on one acre.
This acre contains about 6,200 board
feet of sawlog timber and quite a lot
of pulpwood* marked to come out.
Then, a good stand of the best trees
will be left to grow. This acre is rep
resentative of the twenty acres in this
tract of timber.
A one-acre timber stand improve
ment demonstration was layed out 1
with J. Elton Jordan of Tyner.
A visit to Vernon Boyce’s woods at
Tyner revealed ten acres of young
pines much in need of .proper thin
ning and just right for pulptwood. A
later date was set to revisit Mr.
Boyce, lay off a demonstration plot
and mark the trees to be cut for fuel
and pulpwood.
J. C. Forehand and Kelly Byrum of
Ryland were two 4-H Club members
visited and timber management dis
cussed with them in their woods.
A beautiful stand of young pines
was observed on E. M. Howell’s farm
near Ryland. It was pointed out to
Mr. Howell the numerous hardwoods
and poorer pines which should be re
moved and utilized, leaving ample
room for the best trees to grow. A
demonstration will probably be layed
out here later.
Faith does nothing alone —nothing
of itself, but everything under God, by
God, through God.
