A recent study shows that in the next four or five years, farm ers of the nation could produce about 20 percent more than they did in 1950 and 18 per cent more than in 1951, if there is need for such a volume of farm output and provided that steps ^ necessary to assure it are taken. In 1951, agricultural exports ac counted for 14 per cent of the cash farm income in this country.

(Pilot Staff Photo) Local Couple Are Surprised To Find Tomatoes Grow As Big As Catalog Said If you’re blaming your lack of gardening success on the drought, take a look at the picture above, made Friday, July 4, of the to mato vines being grown by Mr. and Mrs. Fred Hall of 525 Nortli Bennett street. The Halls are growing tomatoes weighing from a pound and a quarter to nearly two pounds, ani i they are as surprised about it as anybody else. Of course they have worked, and still work, hard on their garden, watering and work ing it faithfully during the hot weather. The tomatoes, though, are a variety new to them, order ed at random by Mrs. Hall out of a catalog, and they didn’t really expect anything like what the>' got. The catalog showed the “Giant Tree” tomatoes, as they are nam ed, in a fantastically large size, and the claims made for them were also large—but you know how seed catalogs are! Mrs. Hall didn’t exactly believe it, but took ar chance anyhow. The result is, they could supply a small army with the produce of their flourishing vines, and just one of the things would make a meal for an average family. Of course all of therp aren’t that big -the drought affected them to a certain extent, and a number came through it badly misshapen. There are a good proportion of the big beauties, though, as shown in the photograph. When the Pilot reporter went around there the other day, the Halls had\just gathered a crate ful to send to their daughter, Mrs. John Dorsey, Jr., in Wlashington. “Think of it—she writes they’re 42 cents a pound up there!” Mrs. Hall said, surveying the box of about 25 pounds with understand Mr. Hall and his homemade tractor. able satisfaction. The catalog from which she or dered the tomatoes came from an other daughter, Mrs. Eldon Hutch inson, who lives on a 1,200-acre ranch in Oregon. They have two other daughters, Mrs. M. O. Brush of Miami, Fla., and Miss Sue Hall, of the home, also a son, Fred, who lives at home. Mr. Hall works many hours at his gardening in his spare time from his re'gular work, carpen tering. To- facilitate hjs agricul tural' labors he has made a small power-tractor, by himself, out of odd parts picked up here and there. It works, too. The Halls-are raising nice cu cumbers, corn and other truck in the garden lot beside their home —but the tomatoes beat them all. County Cannot Legally Pay Farm Life Teachers; Last Hope Appears Lost The last hope for the continu ation of little Farm Life High school, in the Eureka community, appeared to fade away this week. The final tolling was sounded in a letter from County Attorney M. G. Boyette, read by the county commissioners in special session at Carthage Monday, stating that it would be illegal for them to use tax funds to pay salaries of teachers in a school which had been abolished by the State. This was the desperate plan broached by members of the Farm Life district committee and coun ty board of education, at a meet ing with the commissioners the preceding Monday. The commis sioners requested an opinion of M!r. Boyette as to whether they could pay Farm Life’s regular teaching staff of two out of coun ty funds. A home economics teacher for Farm Life has already been on county pay for the past several years. Farm Life was one of 11 high schools on whom the sword of abolishment by the State finally fell this summer, because they were too small. State standards require a minimum daily attend ance of 60. Just failing to make the minimum. Farm Life has fought for existence for several years, managing to stave off tbe death sentence every year—^until now. ' “We have all done everything we could,” said H. Lee Thomas, county superintendent of educa tion, this week. “The district com mittee, the board of education, the commissioners and numerous patrons and friends of the school have explored every possibility. We hate to see Farm Life go. It has a splendid record. Size does not necessarily make a good school.” I Farm Life’s high school stu dents, numbering about 55, will be transferred to the Carthage High school, which is being allot ted the two teachers which Farm Life lost. \ Farm Life elementary school, with an enrollment of some 200 and six teachers, will continue as before. The high school students will ride the same school buses to their old school, transferring there to a second bus which will take them to Carthage. Some of them actually live nearer Carth age than Farm Life. Among teacher resignations an nounced this week was that of James Lee Johnstoif, eighth grade teacher at Farm Life who has also served as high school coach—a job which no longer exists. T. H. Lingerfelt, Farm Life principal for the past six years, whose contract was renewed in May, is remaining as principal of the elementary school. [ By a curious paradox, this school will have the highest-certi- ! fied and highest-salaried princi- j pal in the county. Besides his A. IB. from the University of Nobth Carolina, Mr^ Lingerfelt has two M. A. degrees, in school adminis tration and in business adminis tration, also a master’s certificate —an unusual accumulation of ed ucational attainments. His state- paid salary is automatic, based on these attainments, plus an addi tional amount as a building prin cipal. He also handles textbooks —distribution. Orders, accounts, etc.,—for all the county schools, earning still an additional sum, as the State pays a regular rate for this service. It all totals $4,- 516 a year. Mrs. Lingerfelt is a teacher in the Farm Life elementary school. TTiey live in a county-owned home on the cainpus. \ SAUSAGE 2 "nJ 35^ WILSON’S VIENNA TUNA FISH LJ T «17 7 DEEP BLUE FANCY No. i ^ C C Friday Nite Is Family Nite PACK LIGHT meat Can OPEN TIL 8:30 P.
