Oct. 2—Water is a Yuting factor in the successful oduction ol' quality fruit and -othing helps an orchard soil to 'd water like the plowing under ox heavy winter-grown cover crop. •'We have found as a rule that > ;t of the soils in the apple and •ich orchards of North Carolina ,« low in organic matter,” says H. Ni'wciig-r, extension horticul 11 ist at State College. “This means •i it theiV is a heavy annual loss ol hint food due to soil erosion. Un 'or such a condition, orchard lands -aunot absorb and retain the sca b's rains; winter-freezing of roots more prevalent and the soil Jacks proper physical condition.’ Niswqnger has observed tha . aw damage to roots of orchard •ues occurs frequently after drouth ui-s when the moisture content. oX 'u* scil is tow. However, when cover crops aie grown in the orchard and turned , nder annually or bi-annually, many the orchard ills mentioned may be curected and the formation cu fruit buds increased. If most of the •i ver crop is removed for hay, fit i a t two-thirds of its value as a T.il builder is lost. . , , 'Phi extension horticulturist has found that orchard owners in this State spand a large part of their uceipts each season for nitrogen vtdizors to build up and maintain u vigor and fruit production. This annual bill may be greatly reduced bv building up the organic content the soils through the use m 1 .'nines. Vetch and Austrian winter is may be planted this fall and i'll' make a heavy growth for tarn ■ • under next spring. An acte of ..chard soil grown to vetch will ..reduce over 6,000 pounds of top ... wth to turn under. The Austrian p; as have a similar value.

VIOLATE NKA CODES: Local Compliance Board* Tel Make Reports To Na- J tional Group WASHINGTON.—Within a few] flours after a question has arisen in jny community in the United States! jt to alleged violations of the Presi-' dent's reemployment agreements, the local compliance board will be able to obtain a definite ruling from the district recovery board or, if the dis trict board is unable to decide the: point, from Washington direct. There are 26 district boards thr< ughout the country, with an average of 200 community compli ance b'oards in each district. Under instructions from Nationa. Adminis trator Hugh S. Johnson, all com plaints nut settled by the local board r the district board will be submitted by the district boards to NRA in Washington by telegraph, and rul ings will be transmitted in the same manner, in order to save time anj secure the promptest possible com pliance by or relief for every em ployer wherever located. As intermation centers ior uic u*o* semination of NRA ruing? ar.d poli cies in their respective communities, it is expected that compliance board? will bo able to harmonize many mis understandings on the ground. Thes.i board? are superseding the local NRA vecovr ry boards or committees inso fai- as concerns complaints of non compliance with the President'* Agreement. All decisions rendered by NRA headquarteis in Washington will be telegraphed immediately to the 2(1 district beards for prompt tvan=mis?sion to the local compli ance boards for their guidance i-i acting upon simi ar cases. In his institutions to the secretaries of the distiict boards Ger.eval Johnson said in partHpl"^Ma 3§||p sff Reports and recommendations from ’coal compliance boards on indtvidua. case? ot nocompliance. petitions for exceptions and union contracts arc foi warded to you instead of to Wash ington. This is to utilize your 0, rice a? a sifting agency vo prevent incomplete or otherwise incorrect re port? from reaching NRA here and thus save time. You will act as in formation center for ipoheiasi and rulings on NRA in your district Local boards have been warned to expect periodic requests for pro gress report* from you and to reu to you for rulings on all new fad situations on which there haveMW* no previous ruling?. Your reque.t to NRA in Washington for new rul ing? will be complied with at once bv telegraph as well as to the other 25 district officers. In turn ,you wn furnish this information not onlv U tt.. local board from which *he ic iest came but to ell other board, Hour district. You are not your self -to make any rulings. By thi. method we should get uniformity. It is be .eved your d| tvict office car. keen the .ocai boards well informed and in hat monv with the national policy. Local compliance board? are being *et up to obtain compliance wnh President’s Reemployment Ag'ew mfnt and not with the permanent codes. All problems of code admin istration a? distinguished from 1 administration of the r rodent? •> ir-rpement should be forwarded 1 fcctlv to NRA in Washington. In a supplementary instruction for the guK.- of local compliance board General Johnson stressed toe fact that friendly aid rather than the iron fist will be the guiding rule. It i., recognized that in many lo culitie# compliance boards under other names, have been functioning with definite success. Where pro cedure has already been developed by such boards it was explained that the instructions were to be regarded ss merely supplementary. General Johnson expressed himself as high y pleased with the work already done in many local boards. He regards what ha? been done as an outstand ing manifestation of how thoroughly they are imbued with the spirit of NRA. _ The bloom of lespedeza in Forsyth County is unusually heavy this sea son and fine crop of seed is ex pected. Wilkes County farmers have had an interesting time getting their trench silos filled. There is only one silage cutter in the county and the new crop of silos has caused this cutter tc be used constantly. __ increasing demand for the American nitrate of soda, The Barrett Com pany has opened a sales office in the North Carolina Bank Building, Raleigh, This office will be under the supervision of W. M. Perry, dis trict sales manager. Arcadian, the American nitrate ot soda, is made by the Atmospheric Nitrogen Corporation at Hopewell, Virginia. Its manufacture acids to the income and buying power of American workers in the South. It uses rnw materials from American mines, quarries, mills and factories, thus bringing employment indirectly to me-r.y thousands of Americans. In this way the American Nitrate Industry increases the demand for all products grown by Southern far mtrs by increasing the buying power of these American workers. Until a few years ago the United States was entirely dependent on foreign ccrtmtrk'S for its supply of nitrate of soda. Today, thanks to American enterprise t h e nitrate needs of the nation tan be produced right in this country. Ameiican farmers who now pui chase American nitrate secure the highest grade. While it is guaranteed 13 percent nitrogen, equivalent to 19.16 percent ammonia, tests show it runs weil over this guarantee. . — 1 J. A.
