OPA SETS APPLE CEILING PRICES Apples for home consumption will sell at a season's national retail average of between 10 and 11 cents a pound. Maximum prlcees for apples were set re cently as one of the first steps In OPA's program to extend control over the prices of fresh fruits and vegetables to keep down the cost of living. As In the case of eggs, prices will vary by the month to reflect storage and otheer charges.

Lime And Legume Seed Are Again Available The Agricultural Adjustment Agency will again allow North Car. olina farmers to draw upon their 19+4 allowance for conservation materials, it was announced here today by the Stat# College Exten sion Service. Where a farmer has used his maximum 1943 allowance, he may get lime or winter legume seed out of his 1944 allowance, up to an amount equal to that of (his allowance on 1943, the announce ment said. This, it was explained, is to allow the producer to obtain all conservation materials he needs to get his land in shape for the even greater production demands that will be made on it next year. If a farmer has not used all the conservation materials his farm ha< earned, through performing AAA practices, for 1943, he can get the materials in the 1943 year up un til December 31. The farm pro. gram year formerly ended on Octo ber 31. In addition, special crop pay ments, such as are made farmers for producing within their acreage allotments on wheat, cotton, tobac co and peanuts, also may be used to obtain conservation materials. This, said the announcement, should give the farmer a chance to great, ly increase the use of lime and winter legumes during the next five months. The Tripple-A has ordered 1, 214,000 pounds of Crimson Clover from Tennessee, and more than 3,000,000 pounds of hairy vetch from Oregon. Austrian Winter peas and Italian rye grass will be order, ed within 10 days. Farmers should immediately place orders for seed .and lime with County AAA Com. mittees.
