STATE SHORT IN GRAIN AND HAY; • Corn Crop Believed To Be 15,000,000 Bushels Short of Actual Needs * The protracted drouth this summer has materially lowered th'e production of all grain and hay crops, even though the acreage for most crops was larger than that planted last year. "To feed its three million popula tion and all livestock, North Carolina needs to produce 50,(KM),(MX) bushels of corn," says C. A. Sheffield, assistant director of extension at State Col lege. ."Forecasts by the United States Crop Reporting Board give the pro duction this year at 35,520,00 bushels of approximately 15 million bushels ' under the apparent needs." I The production of wheat is also one I million bushels short of last year, and other grain crops, such as oats and 1 barley, show a considerable decrease ' under 1931 yields. Mr. Sheffield states that while there were 2i,(MM) more acres planted to bay crops in 1932 than in 1931 the in dicated production is 175.000 tons less than that of last year. With this ex isting shortage, farmers in North Carolina must either buy feed and hay, sell the livestock, or grow Sonic win ter grain and hay. Mr.'Sheffield also states that feed ing imported grain and hay is poor • economy, due to the high freight rates which' often equal the purchase |H-ice. i He therefore advises farmers to grow' | w inter grain and hay crops for win ter and spring feeding. Both barley and oats are splendid grain crops and can be grown success-' fully pn most North Carolina farms. Barley is equal in corn in feed value and the yield is, on the average, slight ly better than corn. "Heavy plantings of these two crops together with a good acreage sown to oats and barley -and vetch or Austrian winter peas and clovers for pasture would keep several mil -1 lion dollars in the State that would I "otherwise go out for the purchase of corn and hay," says Mr. Sheffield. • Diversification Program On Over In Pitt County A farm organization program by farmers in Pitt County has resulted 'in adding dairying, swine growing, and poultry to the farm projects of J. T. Thome, J. 11. Boyd, J. C. Gal loway, A. R. Barnhill, J. Y. Taylor,' J. E. Winslow, Lewis Speight and W. H. Dail.

The warehouse | people are with you. The buyers are j with you, the supervisor is right with j you. Now, after a meeting or two I don't lay down on the job, but stick! j to us, and we will show you the best j market in Eastern North Carolina and I the best set of buyers in Eastern! North Carolina. Now, as to prices this year. So far, on the priming grades, they have been good. Only a few tags turned on any warehouse floor in Williamston the j whole season. A (my tips have shown up and they are selling well. Why shouldn't tobacco sell well There is very little poundage in the bright belt this year, and the manufacturers are not loaded down with old stocks. It take 4(H),000,('00 pounds of to bacco each year for across the water, ] or foreign trade. Will Carrington, of I the United States x obacco Board of j Trade, at a meeting held at Virginia ! Beach in July of thvs year, said that the total pounds ot blight tobacco TT?td in the United States on April 1, 19.12, was 845,(KM),000 pounds. Deduct from this, for foreign trade, 400,000,- 000 pounds; for cigarettes, 200,000,000 pounds; for chewing and smoking to- Uacco 200,000,000 pounds and yfui | have a total of 800,000,000 pounds. Deduct from the 845,000,000 the 800,- '(100,(KM) which w ill be used up by next j April, and you have the pitiful sum , »»f 45,000,000 pounds of old tobacco on | hand April 1, 193,?, Now, my guess | on the new crop, which is now being sold, is as follows, which will be on hand April 1, 1933: Georgia, 15,000,000 pounds; South Carolina, 25,000,000 pounds; North Carolina 240,000,000 pounds; Virginia, 25,000,000 pounds, or a total of .105,000,000 pounds for all the bright tobacco in all the bright states this vear, Add your old crop "l 45, (MM), 000 pounds in this, which will make 350, (MM),(MM) pounds on hand April 1, 19.13, of old and new—not enough to supply the foreign trade. Figure for yourselves—then r011,., your own, ii you can depression or no depression. W. T. MEADOWS. to pay off and discharge the indebt edness Secured by said deed of trust.
