T 7 Al THURSDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1931 THE WAYNESVILLE MOUNTAINEER Page 3 telease Of Tenants Governors of 4 States Is1 Relief Problem1 Seek Crop Reduction .'With'an indicated reduction of from ) to 25'precent of the tenants, princi , illy on the large plantations of the . jrrtral costal plajn area of eastern rth Carolina, a real problem in ilief will be presented to communi . es and individuals in this section iring the latter part of the winter. , County home and farm agents who ive made a carefull survey of the nancy situation for the agricultural (tension service at State College find at 'many land owners will be com. elled to let many of their tenants s for the simple reason that they innot be .financed and furnished any inger. Low prices for cotton and :' ibaoco and lack of cash with which pay debts and taxes are responsible r tht condition. It is estimated that nlesa tome new situation arises be .veen .now and February 1 that be Eveen 15,000 and 20,000 tenant fami i m will have to seek new work by t epring. This means about 100,000 arsons let loose as a social problem. However, landowners are making "rtry effort to care for their tenants. B best ones are being retained and ten the others will be permitted to ay in their old homes without any aaraatee of furnishing, if they can t fiad new places. In some other istaaees, the landlords are endeavor-1 ig to care for the whole lot by re aeing the allowance to each family, he bright spot in this eastern Caro na situation is the abundance of food ad feet which is about enough to rrjr the families through the winter, he black spot if the lack of cloths nd cash and the taking of food sup lies to pay mortgages. In "the piedmont, tidewater and iountain sections conditions are much etter and few tenants will be releas d, according to the reports. Gives Seven Points For Crop Farming The coming year (Iocs not promise nueh.in cash returns lor farming ut plans may be made so that fur her losses may be avoided anil the arm made ready for better days to ome. ' 'This is the opinion of Knos C ilair, extension agronomist at Statt ollege, who probalily travels Ut :r.ort ifferent farms in North Carolina an any one person in the State Jr.. Blair has worked out seven item.1 hich the wise farmer will consider liis winter in making plans for the KVt crop year. The first step, of ne essity, must be a reduction in tht creage to cotton, tobacco, peanuts or ther cash crops. The other six an uilt on this primary action- Where livestock is the main sourct f income, more use should be madt rf home rown feeds. Such feedt iheuld be substituted for those torn ttonly purchased and only thost trhich cannot be grown or exchanged or locally should be purchased. The ive-at-hame program should be en arged, says Mr. Blair until it is even noro complete than it was in 1931 Jert, farmers should be careful aboul mying commercial fertilizers next eason. Only those adapted to a par .ieular crop on a particular soil hould be used and even then the ney should be borrowed if possible nd cash paid for the mixtilres lather than go into debt for fertili ers next year, it would be wiser to educe the acreage of those crops re uiring heavy applications and in rease the acreage of those requiring , less amount. , .The final three suggestions offeree j-Mr. Blair, call for the planting ol aore legumes wherever possible, the ise of larger fields and the planting f more land to pasture. Joint Committee Will Make Survey Of Chief Needs 6 Of States Involved. The governors of four of the South's greatest agricultural states were bucK in their home capitals af ter working out details by which an agreement reached at a conference hire to. reduce acreage in cotton, to bacco,, peanuts and potatoes, may be fulfilled. Kach of the four states Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia is to be represented by thiee men on a joint committee which will be charged with the duty of surveying crop conditions for the last ten fears and making recommendations for acreage quotas in each state for each crop in 1932. The plan was set forth after the conference in a statement signed by the governors O. Max Gardner of North Carolina, who arranged the conference, John G- Follard, of Vir ginia, IbraC. Blackwood, of South Carolina, and Richard B. Kussel of Georgia. The statement said in part: "It was unanimously agreed that each governor appoint three men from his state to constitute what wi'l be known as the four-state commitee, and that such committer survey the acreage and production of 'h. main cash crops for the past 10 years in each state and recommend definite quotas or acreage for 1932, and that the said committee report back their plans to the governors as soon as completed. "It was also agreed that a very important phase of the whole subject of acreage reduction related to the question of credit and banking and each governor proposed to take this' matter up with the banking and credit agencies of the state with a view of securing their co-operation." Each governor will decide for him self the manner in which the plan is to be carried out in his state. The conference received a petition from a committee authorized by the j North Carolina legislature to memor- ialize congress for a rebate on com-! modify taxes, asking that all con-J gressmen and senators be asked to co- j operate in the four states but no i action was taken. ! Praise Given Judge William H. Smathers Judge William H. Smathers, of At lantic City, New Jersey, son of Dr. an.i Mrs. B. F. Smathers, of this city, has iome in recently for quite a good deal Kit praise by some of the poli ticians of New Jersey on account of the diligence with which he adminis ters justice from his court. The latest that we have noticed is a paragraph from the editorial columns of the At lantic City Journal: "In closing let me say that Judge Smathers is probably the bigest man that has come vut of the Atlantic county end of this fight. He is mak ing somew'.iat of a reputation for himself throughout the state ami, un less I miss my guess, will go higher in New Jersey polities. Who can tell -he may land a big job up state. 1 know a lot of local folks who hope so, and they are not all democrats either. Catch on?" Judge Smathers has been in the community for some time visiting his parents and other relatives. P. M- Krimminger of Cabarrus County has harvested 656 bushels ol certified Korean lespedeza seed thif season. Dr. C R. Young, one of the larg J .est tobacco planters in Harnett j County, will reduce his acreage next season by planting a heavy acreage to fall grains and legume crops this fall. ! Legion Post Now "' Has 75 Members According to Commander J- C. latrick the local post of the American gion has reached a total number 175 members. This is not as many s the officials of the , post had. hopc' j'lhave, but since many prospects ave moved away they feel that the umber they have attained is as nany or more than could be e ected. . j The American Legion sponsored the Lrmistice Day celebration here and rere ' pleased with: the response the blic made in helping them carry B I their plans. While Dr. La Rue is away his prac ee will be taken care of by Dr. erry who is his associate in practice - having charge of Dr. La Rue's Ike in Asheville.
