WEATHER IS
TAKING TOLL OF
BURLEY CROP
Aooording to Harry G. Silver,
County Agent, the recent heavy
rains and high humidity are tak
ing a heavy toll from hurley to
bacco farmers in Madison Coun
ty. The early dry weather did
not allow tobacco to reach matur
ity as in a normal season. The
heavy rain of August 16 and 16,
repeated two weeks later, caused
most tobacco to take a second
growth and become very brittle
and hard to handle. Many farm
ers found it necessary to cut and
stick out much of their tobacco in
order to be able to handle it Ma
ny of these fanners were unfor
tunate enough to have their to
bacco sticking ont hen the heavy
rains of the latte. part of Sep
tember and early October came
The high humidity during the ear
ly part of the curing season is
taking its toll in bar scald anl
tobacco going through a heat in
the curing barns. This is reduc
ing the weight of tobacco. It will
darken the color and will cause
actual decay of much of the to
bacco. There is no way for farmers to
control the wpather. Conditions
such as have been present during
tho past two weeks point out ;
more vividly the need for curing
barns with maximum ventilation.
It points out the need for mois
ture barriers on the floor of the
curing barns. This may be done
with plastic, straw or cardboard.
It points out the need for diver
sion of all surface water away
from tobacco barns. Maximum

Voters,
Register
Republican
oOo
Now is the ideal time for the voters of Mad
ison County to redeem the county's name, throw off
II the political shackles that have plagued our election
1 1 process, and end the scandal that embawrass and
bring disrepute to our county.
How can this be done? By registering and vot
ing Republican in 1964. Register at your polling
place on October 3, 10, 17 and 24th. Register and
vote Republican from the Capitol to the Courthouse
and you will further that competition which is the
life of trade. Without competition, progress slows
down and inefficiency is condoned. Monopoly and
stagnation go hand in hand. The same is true in
politics; sixty years of one party rule has put North
Carolina near the bottom of the SO States in aver
age income, education, health and many other fields.
Gerrymandering, failure to redistrict according to
our constitution, and unfair methods of electing
school boards have been used to perpetuate one par
ty control in this county and state. Corruption in
high places has been covered up.
Only a strong, competitive two party system
can bring us up to national standards and clean up
the many abuses caused by one party domination.
The Republican Party stands for those principles
which have nourished good government throughout
the years. Republicanism is synonymous with na
tional integrity and fiscal soundness.
You owe it to yourself, your family, your
county and your country to register as you vote. Do
it in October Register Republican and vote this
way in November. All indications point to a clean,
honest election on November 3rd in Madison County.
Free and honest elections are essential to the
preservation of this Republic, and the maintenance
of - that liberty which b freedom's mighty instrument
of spiritual power.
Join the GO Party in '64. You no longer need
to take the loyalty oath when yum change parties.
You can help clean up Madison County. Now is the
chance of a lifetime I Do not let this opportunity to
store good government pass you by! Register Re
publican and art your Mends to do likewise.
