Farm Machines
Make Difference i
Farm labor these days is relatively
expensive, with wage rates more than
four times as high as before World
1 War 11.
During the same period prices of
I machinery, including tractors, have al
most doubled, and prices of motor sup-
J plies, including gasoline and other
fuels, have increased about 50 per,
cent. j
C. W. Overman, Chowan County,
farm agent for the State College
Extension Service, says the amount of
labor saved by “letting machines do
I the work” will continue to be an im-
I portant consideration in farm plan
ning.
I I Overman says recent USDA fig-!
j ures indicate that for most field crops
1 ;a good deal less labor is now required
i per acre than in the 1910-11 period.
The almost complete conversion from
horses and mules to tractors, trucks
j and other machines is the main rea
son for the big drop in labor require
ments.
The greatest decrease in labor has
occurred in the production of small
grains and other crops similarly pro
duced, says Overman. Corn, for ex
ample, now requires only 37 per cent
,'as much labor as in 1910-1-1.
I Tobacco is at the opposite end of
| the scale. It is chiefly harvested by
jhand and a significant increase in
I yield has resulted in more man-hours
iper acre. However, the increase in
i hours has been more than paid for
by increases in yield.
The development of practical tobac
co harvesters is expected to bring
about a more rapid change in the to
j hacoo-labor picture.

If these old plants are allowed to
remain they will carry over many in

composted with a little manure and

In the flower garden this is a good
time to plant seed of spring and early
summer blooming perennials. If these
seed are planted now in flats, cold
frames, or well prepared seed beds,
and transplanted as soon as they are
large enough to handle, they will
bloom next year. If you plant the
seeds in the spring most of these
plants will not bloom until the fol
