THE ENTERPRISE
PLANTING TOO
MUCH TOBACCO
Farmera Report* To Gov
ernment Indicate Over 10
Per Cent Increase •
An item of significance to farmers of
North Carolina is contained in the re
cent government report of intentions to
plant by some SO,OOO farmers of this
and other States, which shows that the
acreage to flue-cured tobacco will like
ly be increased over 10 per cent this
seasot^
"The governmental agencies are not
allowed to collect information as to the
intentions of farmers to plant cotton,
and we have no accurate means of
knowing whether the acreage will be
expanded, yet we do know that tobacco
wilt be increased by 10.5 per cent,- and
this will likely cause a serious situa>-
tio'.jM* fall," says 1. O. Schaub, dean
of trie school of agriculture at State
College. "Indications from private
sources show that the cotton acreage
will also be slightly increased, Ijut when
we add an increased acreage of 10 per
cent to that of from 15 to 20 per cent,
for last year with tobacco, we shall
likely suffer from low prices this fall.
Cigarette consumption is increasing by
about 9 per cent each year, but the bur
ley tobacco growers indicate that they
will also increase their acreage by 34
per cent. Since burley is also used in
cigarette manufacture, these two in
creases will certainly give an excessive
crop."
In a study of'thc intentions-to-plant
report, Dean SchauT) finds that the
corn acreage wilt be increased slightly
in North Carolina. Hay will remain
as for last year, when farmers made a
good increase, and peanuts will be in
creased by 8 per cent in this State and
12 per cent as an average for the pea
nut belt. Sweet potatoes will be in
creased in acreage by 5 per cent, and
Irish potatoes by 12 per cent. Only
average prices will probably be se
cured with these two crops. Mr.
Schaub states that the average in-
