They learned how to do the job at a home demonstration work ship held sometime ago in the county agricultural build ing, Warrenton. Billy Walker, son of Mr. and Mrs. Walker, who is tak ing vocational agriculture at the Littleton High School un- j der the guidance of A W. Parker, made the supporting benches in the school shop. ( The Walkers have a nice' clean shop, well heated, snd there is one thing certain, 1 they perform an excellent job. A few extra dollars is helpful to most family bud gets. so the public is furn ished a needed service and the Walkers are furnished needed dollars. RECREATION Several days ago I was in specting recreational areas around Kimball Point and ran into Paul Anderson, Park Ranger for the John H. Kerr Development Commission. Mr. Anderson was visiting a new picnic shed under construc tion and reported the new location was one of the best on the lake, of which I was bound to agree. Mention was made concerning the S400, 000.00 federal grant to the Kerr Lake area for recrea tional development facilities. Mr. Anderson reported that $148,000 00 was scheduled to be spent on improvements in Warren County. Additional camp sites are being con structed and streets paved to replace the present soil and travel ones. Mr. Anderson further reported, Kimball's Point was one of the best outdoor family camping areas in the Eastern United States. I Some campers will like the new improvements and others! will not in that they feel too much modernism will remove the ruggedness from the area, but anyway, this is a beau tiful spot for outdoor camp ing. TOBACCO STUDY COMMITTEE It would have been a treat to world-wide tobacco produc ers, buyers and processors if they had been listening in on the give-and-take conversation of the Warren County Tobac co Study Committee held one day last week. The commit tee, headed by Erich E. Hecht and attended by W. A. Connell, Jr., W. S. Smiley, W. M Fleming and W. E. Mulchi, Jr., was meeting to arrive at a statement to for ward to Washington, D. C? as a follow-up of the recent to bacco hearing held in Ral eigh. Space here will not permit a summary of what took place in the one and one-half hour conference but "What ix quality" came in for some strong argument. Mention was made that N2,' for ex ample, brought up to (00.00 ! ?> YOU CAN'T GO WRONG WITH A per hundred this past sea son. N2 is such a poor grade that it does not even carry a support price, but, "boy, oh boy," how it sold this year compared to a C2L. Tobacco producers will no tice that grades are classed from 1 to 6 and sometimes the letter V-G-M, etc., are added to denote a disqualify ing factor. It appears that most all companies desire some tobacco of a variety of grades, depending on the type of cigarettes, cigars, etc., they manufacture. For example, when an X4LL brings about as much as C2L then produc ers get concerned, so it ap pears that the l's and 2's in the grade sometimes sell for about the same price as the 5's and 6's. The point is this, quality is known but the buyers do not always pay what we think should be a graduated scale of prices up ward as grade quality im proves. This does leave one kind of confused, so why not sleep on it a few days and bring the subject up next week, Ha! GARDEN TIME M . E . G|i rtl n e r N . C . St ato Coll ojl*o For some time I have been: planning to write about some j of ive nut and fruit crops! not commonly grown in \ North Carolina. Let's start] with the Hazel Nut (Filbert), i All varieties of hazel nuts j are self-unfruitful so ample provision must be made for j cross pollination by planting two or more varieties togeth er. At least one of Ihe va- j rieties should have hardy catkins. Cosford has hardy catkins | and is the thinnest shelled of all varieties. The plant is vigorous, hardy and produc tive. Du Chilly is another favorite. Other varieties are Barcelona, Medium Long and Italian Red. The pecan is adapted to what is commonly referred to -*s the Cotton Belt, and the Stuart is perhaps move widely planted than any oth er variety. However, there are hardy sorts which may be grown in the upper Pied mont and mountains. Some of the hardy varie Milk Production Is Up| Billion Pounds In '62 U. S. milk production in creased about one billion pounds in 1BG2. A smaller increase is likely in 1083. "The drop in support levels last April will have consider able effect in reducing the expansion that earlier was expected to reach another bil lion pounds," says Henry A. ties are: Busseron, Major, j Gates and Colby. Colby is! the newest introduction and < is reported" to be of good I flavor, large for hardy types and very productive. Of the black walnut varie-; tics, Thomas is still the fav orite. This variety cracks well and the kernels are large and light in color. The tree is hardy and productive. Hicans may be of some in terest to western Carolina readers. The Hican is a cross between the pecan and shell bark hickory hybrids. Clarks ville and Gerardi are hican varieties available from cer tain nurseries. These trees may be used as dual-purpose plants, where space is avail able, as they have ornamental appeal as well as nut pro duction. One need only drive through what once was ches nut country and ste the skel etons left due to the ravages oi chesnut blight. This has brought Hie Cliinese chesnul into the picture because of the resistance of this type to blight. Nurseries are offering se-1 lected strains from Nanking. | Meiling, Kuling and other seedlings. These seem to be more satisfactory than graft ed trees. The Chinese ches nut is a rather versatile plant j because it also has ornamen-| tal appeal and is not too | j choosy about soil types. Of the fruits not common-! | ly cultivated we might con sider the elderberry. Elder berries make fine pies, jcl i lies and juices. The plant | also has ornamental value. If you would like to try I this fruit, the following varie ; ties are available: Adams No. 1, Johns and New York No 12. In order to insure pol lination and fruit set. plant at least two different varie ties together. This is im portant.

Iwl's Homme, dairy marketing I specialist at North CarolinaI State College. Homme added that CCC ac quisitions may equal those in 1962. While production jumped a billion pounds last year, sales increased about .16 per cent. "But this just about offset the decline in farm use," Homme explained. Although figures have not yet been released for the ] year, CCC purchases will be approximately 11 billion pounds of milk equivalent, or nine per cent of the milkfat and 13 per cent of the milk solids-not-fat. In North Carolina grade A milk production for the first nine months of 1962 totaled 760 million pounds, up 4 7 per cent from a year earlier Class One was up 3 3 per cent, giving a blend price for the first nine months of $5 62 for milk testing 3.76 per cent butterfat The November in crease of 24 cents per hun dredweight in the Class One price would have increased the average for the remain der of the year about 17-18 cents per hundredweight.
