ROGUE’S GALLERY—I had an
| experience recently thait was
j searing and shocking. It never
occurred to me that some people
1 actually thought in this manner;
Ibut this fellow opened up with
| a tirade of abuse and vitupera
tion against the United States
; that was vulgarly filthy and
obscene. One of his arguments
was that Russia had a better
system of government than ours, j
and wait and see, communism |
would eventually rule the world.)
The fellow was so entrenched!
in his evil philosophy, I did not)
attempt to argue, but merely j
said I liked our system of gov
ernment. and the United States
was my tand, not only right or
wrong—but right AND wrong.

N. C. State College. “We’re
coming up fast; but we’re far
being the top state in acreage,
which is Illinois with five million'
acres.”
i Indiana. Minnesota, lowa and!
' |
i Arkansas put about 2.5 million
| acres in soybeans, while Missis
sippi and Ohio arc over a mil
lion.
Spain says the farmer has to
shoot for above-average yields
to make a decent profit on soy
beans. “If a farmer can get
i 30 to 32 bushels per acre, at $2 !
i a bushel he’ll average S3B in!
| profit per acre,” he says. “There j
! are not allotments on soybeans,!
I and the crop is fully mechanized.
! He shouldn't have to spend more
! than eight and a half hours per
| acre”
The state average yield last
! year was 22 bushels per acre.
1 That’s a long way from the rec
[ ord set in a five-county contest
around New Bern: 56.3 bushels!
