1,000-Bushel
Sweet Potato Yield
Possible By <969
An extension horticultural
specialist at North Carolina
State has predicted that a Tar
Heel sweet potato grower "will
produce 1,000 bushels of mar
ketable potatoes on one acre
within five years."
This seemingly astronomical
yield will be possible, says
Henry Covington, because of the
rapid pace at which new pro
duction know-how Is being de
veloped and put into practice.
Covington pointed out that the
averaged sweet potato yield In
North Carolina rose from 104
to 236 bushels per acre from
1954 to 1962.
'.'You can see how fast we are
moving," Covington added,
"when you realize that we only
Increased our average yield by
35 bushels from 1969 to 1954."
In other words, a mushroom
ing of sweet potato production
efficiency has set In within the
last decade.
One grower, Noah D. Griffin,
Wllllsmston, Rt. 1, grew 581
bushels of U. S. 1 fresh mar
ket sweet potatoes on an acre
In 1963. Ed and Hayes Bea
mon, Goldsboro, Rt. 6, produc
ed 845 bushels of marketable
potatoes (Including canners) on
an acre In 1962, of which 546
bushels were U. S. l's.
Covington attributes the ra
pid rise In sweet potato pro
duction efficiency to research
and the eagerness of growers
to accept Improved varieties
and cultural practices.
One of the chief means for
promoting Improved practices
Is the "400-Bushel Sweet Pot
ato Club," which Is sponsored
by the N. C. Sweet Potato
Association, Inc.
Covington says the Club has
been a leading advocate of the
Extension Service's recom
mended practices for producing
high yields of top quality pot
atoes. These practices are
commonly referred to as the
"All-Practice Sweet Potato
Program."
Not only does the Club push
good production practices, but
It provides a means (or top
growers to be recognized. Top
yielders In three contest areas
of the state are awarded $110
each. Nine plaques are provid
ed, and members of the 400
Bushel Club take an annual trip
to size up markets and com
peting production areas.
Covington pointed out that
support for the 400-Bushel
Sweet Potato Club Is only one
of many activities of the N. C.
The organization, which Is
headed by executive secretary
Ed Biggs, Is financed by vol
untary grower assessements. A
vote will be held on Sept. 15
to determine whether the organ
ization will be continued.
Going My Way
All this talk about passes
reminds us of a story. It couldn't
happen today, but they say It
did In the days of wooden cars
and Iron men
It seems a brakeman went
to his superintendent for apass
home. The request was denied.
The brakeman said he thought
It was pretty cheap, after work
ing several years for the com
pany to have to pay fare on
his own line.
Said the superintendent:
"Suppose you worked for
a farmer out in the country
would you expect him to hitch
up his team and take you home
tor nothing every time you want
ed to go?"
"Well, no," said our brake
man, "but If he had his team
all hitched up and was going
by my house, he'd be a hog
If he wouldn't let me ride."
P. 8. He got the pass.

Grand Jury Asks For
New Kitchen At Jail
A Warren County Grand Jury,
reporting to Judge Leo Carr,
Judge presiding over the crim
inal term of Superior Court,
on Monday afternoon recom
mended that a new kitchen be;
constructed at the county Jail j
as soon as money becomes i
available from the county fund, j
It also recommended that thej
posts holding the roof over the'
side entrance be replaced or j
repaired.
A leak along the south wall
celling of the court house was
of serious concern to the Grand j
Jury. "This definitely needs |
Immediate attention," the j
report stated. Other than that j
there Is no complaint of a faul- ;
ty condition In the building.
While the building on the!
whole may be structurally
sound, the Grand Jury had de
finite complaint about the lack
of cleanliness of the court
house. "The building Is gen
erally dirty?poor Janltatlon and
maintenance In general. The
basement rest rooms and their
entrances from Inside definite
ly need a paint job. In th?
near future a general paint jot
would be In order. Paint Is
cracking from many of the door
facings. The lock In the north
west basement rest room needs
fixing. The lock on the grant!
jury room needs replacing."
Another county building?th?

attention, the Grand Jurors
found. They reported they found
a leak In the roof over ths
Farmers Home Administration
office, plaster repairs needed
In the Agricultural Stabiliza
tion and Conservation Service
office. Also, In the ASCS office
Insulation needed on heat pipes
as offices overheat In the win
ter. A hand rail was loose or

building.
Other than those listed com
plaints, facilities of the county
appeared to be In good shape.
