"We believe this is a good year to grow truck crops, especially for canning. The latest outlook re ports from the United States De partment of Agriculture indicate that a smaller acreage of commer cial truck will be planted than was expected. Many of our young men engaged in farming last year are working on National De fense jobs or have been drafted. There are more people working who will spend more money- for food stuff," said J. C. Lynn, coun ty agent, this week in discussing the importance of gardens. The county agent also pointed out that plantings of Irish po tatoes have been above last year in this county and it is estimated that the number of gardens has been increased as well as the size of gardens and variety of vegeta bles nlanted. He also urges the farmers hot only to plant spring gardens but also plan for fall crops. Under the Lend Lease act more canned foods are being exported than ever before. The carry-over canned foods is much lower than one year ago. The Agricultural Adjustment Administration is very anxious that the farmers plant a good crop of tomatoes this year for home use and for commer cial canning. The county agents have pointed out the fact that the local co-op-ative cannery is offering contracts to growers for tomatoes and it is believed that money may be made by contracting tomatoes to the local cannery. The stocks on hand of all canned food at the co-oper ative cannery at Hazelwood is the lowest in several seasons. The cannery this year is oi- fering the following prices lor beans: 75 cents for number one's;' 65 cents for number two's and 45 cents for number three's. These prices offer the farmers of Hay wood county good insurance on t.fcpir hf&n crot). According to records kept by bean growers for several seasons the average cost of producing a bushel of beans is 34 cents. This is said to include all expenses. . By planting beans on good land and using proper fertilization and culture practices an acre Bhould produce around 150 bushels. Tak ing an average cannery price this would be a gross income of $97.50 an acre or a net income (based on reeord cost of 34 cents per bushel) of $46.50 per acre. ; I " : These are Baid to be very con servative figures and should be exceeded by 25 cents under favor able conditions. All figures are based on the canned prices; how ever, if the green vegetable mark et is enough in advance of the canned market the co-operative will sell the produce in the green form, it was learned. Beans are a quick maturing crop and may be followed by soy beans or cowpeas for hay and many other crops. Farmers plan ning to sow alfalfa in the fall will find a bean patch very suitable, the county agents point out Haywood farmers are urged to grow produce for the local cannery, as the plants fills -the need for marketing produce in this ection. Cannery contracts may be signed in the county farm agentVoffice oi by contacting Frank M. Davis, manager. .
