Colorado Plateau
Rich In Uranium
—•—
Dr. Samuel C. Lind, director of
Iiistry at the Oak Ridge, Tan
ee National Atomic Lahora
recently stated that the Col
) Flateau is the world’s sec
largest source of uranium,
amount of uranium now be
nined on the plateou—which
extends into Utah, New Mexico
and Ariziona—is a closely guard
ed secret.
However, it is reported that
there are over 450 uranium mines
in opreation in this area today,
representing an increase of over
150 mines since last year this
time.
This (and other evidences) in
dicates the United States contains
a vast supply of uranium. At one
time it was believed the U. £.
supply would not measure up to
needs, and while this country con
tinues to import some uranium,
there is reason to believe the sup
ply is far greater than has been
believed, and adequate for most
AEC needs.

Ample Water For
Hogs Pays Profit
This is thr season of the year
when North Carolina hog pro
ducers get the greatest values
from good watering systems for
their herds. Ilogs use a great deal
more water in hot weather than
in cold and the job of providing
at least two gallons per day per
hog can be a laborious one where
modern equipment is lacking.
Hogs canot make efficient gains
traveling long distances to get
1 water Recent observations by
livestock specialists indicate that
I watereis should be located with
in 300 feet of self feeding equip
ment. If they are separated by
greater distanees, less feed and
i water are consumed and lower
[ gains result.
The best method of supplying
' water to hogs is through automa
tic drinkers attached to a constant
; supply of water piped to the field.
far removed from the farmstead
to make this parctical, a majority
j of producers have to haul water
to their hiyds. In this case the
j use of wagon tanks that carry
enough for several capacity foun
j tains or large stock tanks with
j drinker attachments is desirable.
' Big tanks necessitate fewer trips
I back and forth. A good manage
| ment practice is to haul the water
j in connection with other farming
! operations in the same area.
Use of labor saving choretime
equipment such as good watering
squipment and self-feeders will
help overcome labor shortages
and htrrve.-i time rush in the tan
of hogs North Carolina pork pro
ducers are trying to keep costs
low this year. Numbers of hogs
going to market this fall and
winter will likely be plentiful
i enough to lower prices from pre
I sent levels. Low cost are always
the most profitable.
Polio Reported Twice As
Prevalent This Summer
Infantile paralysis cases this
year are running about 30 per cent
ahead of the corresponding period
of 1932, when a record 57,036 cases
were reported, according to the
Federal Public Health Service. Up
to the first of June, a total of 2,
817 cases had been reported in
1953. This compares with 2.16fi in
the similar 1952 period. For the
“disease year” which began about
April 1. this year's total has reach
ed 1,235 cases. Last year at this
time the total was 846.
Good Practices I
Produce Plants
—♦ —
David Reynolds, Negro firmer
of Hertford County, broke into
a wide grin recently when asked i
about his tobacco He had finish-j
ed resetting his 4.8 acre allotment ]
using only two dozen plants. The]
crop was up to a good stand,
while almost .'very leaf grower
in the area was looking for more
plants.
Melvin L. Johnson, Hertford
Negro farm agent, wanted to
konw why Reynolds had succeed
ed where others had failed. Rey
nolds told him he had started out
using only recommended practices
with this year's crop. Asked if
he had any blue mold trouble in
his plant bed earlier, Reynolds

Using a two-year-old bucker
type sprayer and three bags of
female. he sprayed his squats
yard plant bed eight or nine times
j(he doesn't remember the exact
I number of applications). This pro*
, teeted the plants from both
1 crowding by weeds and blue
j mold.
j He remembers onlv that he
| sprayed twice each week for
three or four weeks, and that onee
it was necessary to spray three
times in one week because a 1
heavy rain followed his regular
spraying.
As the Negro farmer and his
county agent walked ovei to the
still bountiful plant bed recently
a small group of m igbhors vvea

In all, there were enough left
to set six acres "That's about the
story on tobacco plants in Hert
ford County," s,,vs Johnson
i ‘‘Wherever a good spraying or
dusting job was done, there were
plenty of plants.'
