Rue Cured Tobacco Allotment For 1955 Announced By ACP Each Farm Allotment; Scheduled to Be Five ; Per Cent Less North Carolina farmers will be alloted 664,495 acres for the pro- i durtion of flue-cured tobacco in : 1955, Fred R. Keith, chairman of j the State Agricultural Stabilization! announced this week. Since this year’s allotment was 695,995 acres, this means that: each farm’s allotment for 1955 will be five per cent less next year. Although North Carolina’s allot ment exceeds that of all other flue- . cured tobacco producing states com bined. Tar Heel farmers will still; * 1 have the lowest tobacco allotments since 1950. This cut in flue-cured tobacco acreage allotments was brought about bv a decline in domestic con- ; sumption of cigarette tobacco ac- ‘ cording to Keith. “There just | weren’t as many cigarettes smoked this year.” The flue-cured tobacco earryover j into 1955 will be the highest on rec- ! ord . . . 1,915 million pounds. Do-j mestie usage of flue-cured tobacco ; through June 30 of this year to- ] tided 778 million pounds, about six per cent less than last year. Keith ! added that exports this year were 481 million pounds. Proclamation of marketing quo- 1 tas on the 1955 crop of the flue-cur ed tobacco will not call for a grow-j er referendum on tobacco. Tobacco growers in this state in 1952 .voted; 98 per cent in favor of quotas on; tobacco for the three year period, i 1952-1955. Keith reports that state and | county ASC committees are nowi working on breaking down this! state allotment to individual farms! and that farm allotments will go, out around the first of the year, j Unfortunate Error in Classified Ad Hue to a typographical error in ; a* classified ad last week, an injus-j tice was done Fred White, Route; 1.

At a church service honoring the I ; retiring minister, he was asked to read the 23rd Psalm. This he did with quiet sincerity. The Bishop' preached the sermon. After the I service a man came to the Bishop; ,and declared. “I have heard great orators read tlie 28vd Psalm, hut never have 1 ! been'so impressed as I was by that reading today.” A faint smile came to the Bish op's lips.
