Peanut Growers
HavmgProMems
Farm Bureau Protests
Change In Peanut
Legislation
Farmers often remark, “If we don’t
have one problem we have two or
more.” Peanut growers in Chowan
(County are finding this statement true
at the present.
The extremely dry weather is af
fecting most crops. It is providing
perfect conditions for the Southern
stem rot disease to work on peanuts.
The disease has been found in. many
fields and some plants are dying al
though only an occasional plant. Se
vere nematode injury has been found
in a few fields in spotted areas.
On top of this, word was received
■Saturday, June 19, that certain or
ganized groups of peanut users are
making a concerted effort to disrupt
or eliminate the peanut legislative
program. Bristoe Perry, president of
the Chowan County Farm Bureau, im
mediately called a meeting of the
county organization when a goodly
number of growers attended. The pea
nut program was expJamedrThe group
expressed their unanimous favor to
have the program continue approxi
mately as it is. I
“The large tvpe peanut that we are |
producing in Chowan County is what I
the peanut manufacturers say they
want,” says County Agent C. W. Ov
erman. “So far as the group could
determine, all peanuts produced in
Chowan County last year moved
regular channels and none
went under Government loan. Cho
wan growers don’t feel that they are
contributing to the Government loss
by Government purchasers. They
clearly recognize the fact that the
present support price program is con
tributing greatly in maintaining good
peanut prices and they want the pro
gram continued.

(production of the large type peanuts,
Chowan growers are willing to co-|
operate by fair adjustment in their
acreage. At the present time they
feel that there is not an over produc
tion of the large type peanut.”
The County Farm Bureau group se
lected a committee to attend the House
Agricultural committee hearing, call
ed by Congressman Harold D. Cooley,
of Nash County, held in Washington
on Wednesday. M. W. Jackson, Cur
tis Forehand, Will A. Harrell and Ru
dolph Dale attended the hearing and
expressed Chowan growers’ views.
There they joined with groups from
other North Carolina peanut counties.
Under the leadership of R. Flake
Shaw of the N. C; Farm Bureau they
banded together in an effort for the
maintenance of a good program for
peanut producers.
