The Foundation outlined a seven point program for the drive: 1. Clean and disinfect buildings and pens, especially those used for birth or housing of young animals and birds. 2. Clean up bamfards and lots to eliminate old piles of refuse and ma nure which might be infested with germs and parasites. 3. Get rid of old strawstacks. Flow under or scatter the straw, which of ten harbors germs and parasites. 4. Drain or fence off low spots in barn lots. 'Stagnant pools and mud are breeding places for infection. 5. Pick up nails, glass and other sharp objects which could cause wounds or could be swallowed by live stock. 6. Check for protruding nails, brok en stalls or other defects which could injure livestock, paving the way for infection. 7. Move young animals to clean ground as soon as possible. Have pigs vaccinated against cholera, and against erysipelas in areas where it is authorized by state officiate and recommended by the local veteri narian.

N, C., THURSDAY MARCH 86,1988. it available to Tar Heel farmers through their county agents or by writing to State College. Commonly referred to as “Turkish” tobacco, aromatic is used by all major Hgarette manufacturers in the, produc tion of cigarettes. It is blended with domestic bright leaf and hurley to pro duce the cigarettes familiar to the American public. At present, manu facturers need more than 80,000,000 pounds of aromatic tobacco each year. In the past most of the tobacco was imported from Turkey, Greece, Bul garia and Russia. Experiments since 1939 has shown that aromatic tobacco of equal quality anid value can be produced on many of the soils in Piedmont North Caro lina, Virginia and South Carolina. Re sults obtained from producing the crop under actual farm conditions since 1945 indicate that it will supple ment the income of farmers and will fit in well with rotations and farm- \ ing practices common to the Piedmont and mountain counties. The new booklet, “Aromatic Tobac co Production,” Extension Circular No. 375, is a revision of a 'booklet pub lished by the Extension Service in 1949. The 1949 booklet was prepared j for the Extension Service by R. R. • Darkin and J. R. Mattison of [Duke " University. The new publication is edited by Roy H. Crouse, extension tobacco specialist.
