Maconians lo Vote On Nickels Know-How Research Program Sept. 30th By T. H. FAGG Macon County Agent Tlie people of Macon County will vote September 30 on whether to continue a program or research vital to citizens of North Carolina. In the hands of the voters will be the fate of the Nickels for Know-How program for the next three years. If a two-thirds favoi able vote results, this research and education program at N. C. State College will continue. Many leaders in Macon County have a hand in guiding this pro gram, as members of the Agricul tural Foundation at the college. Any person who buys feed or fer tilizer is considered a member. Macon County's director on the foundation board of 100 members is E. J. Whitmire, who has served for three years. What has this program, started I by Tar Heel farmers in 1951, meant to the economy of the | state? Hundreds of millions of dollars : To tobacco production and ha; - : vesting alone, the know-how furn ished by nickels has meant many millions more in profits. Nickels are battling the major tobacco foes of black shank, nematodes, wireworm and weeds. They've sup ported the development of irriga tlon or tobacco, wmcn can in- 1 crease per acre yield more than $300. And they've backed progress on bulk curing, which will bring tremendous changes in tobacco harvesting and curing. Bulk cur ing has been tested this summer for the first time on a private farm ? near Laurinburg. Nickels funds ? $1,164,325 col lected through 1959 ? are divided four ways: Extension and education, pro duction research, marketing re search and basic research. Nickels have supported 48 pro jects. The sum total effect of them all could well mean the difference between success or failure for thousands of Tar Heel farmers. Take the tobacco disease control project. It has resulted in annual savings of $20 million because of reduced disease losses. All told, it's estimated that Nichkels projects have stimulated profit boosts of well over $100 mil lion for Tar Heel tobacco growers. Current and future research is keyed to farm, home, community and market problems both great and small. There are projects that affect people as consumers or family members or citizens. There are others vital to the im provement of major crops and livestock. And there are many de dicated to solving complex prob lems of major import to minor crops. Nickels are supporting progress In the fields of genetics, dairy cattle breeding, animal nutrition, vegetables, tobacco insects, blue berries, poultry physiology, witch weed, alfalfa weevils, soil fertility, corn breeding, cotton marketing, milk production, soybeans and forage crops. Nickels have made possible specialist work full-time in con trol of peanut and small grain diseases, poultry technology to aid the farmer, and development of new machines for use on the farm. In a great many ways, Nickels have returned to Macon County, multiplied many times. And they'll keep buying better agri culture for the county and the state. Vote, please, in the referendum of September 30. News For Veterans Four Important pieces of advice about getting their checks were r ?. " ' ? . ? ? '. ' . ?

The first was a caution on chancing address. Veterans were urged, If they move to notify both V. A. and the post office, giving their old and the new address, so that the check may be forwarded and not delayed. The second tip was to notify V. A. if the check is for the wrong amount. Instead of cashing it. This would save future trouble both for the veteran and for V.A. The third point was to notify VA. at once if the check is lost or stolen or otherwise not receiv ed at the proper time. If that's done, V.A. can proceed to trace it without delay. , The final point was advice to keep V.A. notified of any changes in the size of the veteran's fam ily. Most benefit checks are based on the number of dependents in the family, V A. said, and the only way it can know of changes is if the veteran notifies them. This is important, V.A. said, whether the size of the family in creases or decreases, so that the checks can be made out for the correct amount.
