with Turkish tobacco and that
last year at Oxford. N. C... batter
Ttrrlrish tobacco and more per
acre were frown than in Tur
key. Thousands, and thousands of
dollars have been spent on the
tests by the N. C. Department of
Agriculture, Duke University, and
the Agricultural Experiment Sta
tion. Why the tecrecy of the fact
that North Carolina thi year will
have around 100 farmer produc
ing on. a trial haaia Turkiih Tobacco.?
For more than a year new
those in. charge of the experi
ments at Oxford have eianned to
send out publicity on the work
and now it is coming out piece
meal ... an item here and a hint
about "aromatic" (that's Turkish))
tobacco there. Why not a full
story, or nothing?
Facts about Turkish tobacco:
plants are set from four to six
inches apart; it is never topped;
the leaves are about four inches
in length; it is air-cured; for cur
ing, it must be "sewed" on the
stick with a needle; after curing,
it is arranged in small bails; it
usually sells for about twice as
much as ordinary flue-eured to
bacco; it requires so much labor
that it js tailor-made for small
farms and large families; and it is
planned for mountain farmers to
grow it two. or three acres to a
farm; the average yield is around
1,400 pounds to the acre; the
best fertilizer is regular barnyard,
manure.
There was a short article about
it in last Saturday's Greensboro
Daily News and in other papers
last week.

LUNCH The next time you
come to Raleigh you may have the
opportunity to have lunch with
Governor Cherry. That's right.
The late great Dr. B. W. Kil
gore established Pine State
Creamery here, and Pine State
has a dairy lunch place on Salis
bury Street which is frequently
frequented by Mr. Cherry. It's
not a big place, and is very
humbly appointed, as they say,
but Governor Cherry looks right
at home' in there eating his
doughnuts and drinking a pint of
milk.
He goes in, stands in line with
the others, and "lords it" over
nobody. Come around some time
and eat with our governor in the
real old democratic way. No
stuffy atmosphere ever surrounds
the new governor quite refreshing.

MR. AND MRS. H. H. EAVENSON, of Waynesville, It.F.D. No. 1, have three sons in the service.
They are: TSgt. Jim Eavenson, who entered the service in August, 19;i, and served for 9 months
and was discharged and then rejoined following attack of Pearl Harbor. At the time he entered the
Air Corps the second time he was employed at Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company.
He took his training at Keesler Field and from there was sent to Panama and then Back to the States.
Before being sent overseas he was trained at Fort Myers, Fla., Witchita Falls, Tex., a base in Louisiana,
and Banger, Me. He has been overseas for the past eight months.
Lester H. Eavenson, seaman 2c, entered the service in October, 1944, and was inducted at Camp
Croft and from there sent to Bainbridge, Md. Upon completion of boot training he was sent to Rich
mond, Va. He recently visited his fafnily here. His wife, the former Miss Margaret Sparks, and three
ehilren reside at Waynesville, R.F.D. No. 1. At the time he entered the service he was employed by
the Unagusta Manufacturing Company.
Tom Eavenson, S 2c, entered the service in April, 1911, and took his boot training :it Camp
Peary, Va., and from there was assigned to sea duty. Ho was with the forces in the invasion of the
Philippines. He is entitled to wear three bronze stars. At the time he entered the service he was
employed by the Navy Yards at Portsmouth, Va.
FRIENDS This column said
last week that "the friendship be
tween Roosevelt and Lindsay War
Fen may be against his being ap
pointed successor to Meekins, rath
er than for It." The column was
carried on Thursday and Friday
in 20 non-daily papers, and on
Saturday the news came from
Washington that "Warren will not
accept judicial post."
306 Yes, 308 divorces were
granted in Wake county Superior
Court during 1944. There were
786 marriages. September,' the
high month, saw 42 divorces grant
ed in your State Capital.
In one day during the past two
weeks, the Wake court granted
14 divorces.
The bin to reduce the separation
time from two years to one has
been killed and now one to pull
it up to three is being considered.
every two years and high living
expenses in Washington.
Despite' the fact that some law
yers in Cplumbus county did a
fool trick and endorsed Superior
Court Judge W. C. Harris (Ral
eigh) for the place,, instead of
their own Congressman J. Bayard
Clark, chances are that Clark or
Former Governor J. C. B. Khring
haus wilt get the place. At least
one high-ranking Democrat has al
ready given his blessings to Clark.
FIRE It now looks as if the
General Assembly will take from
State School Superintendent Clyde
Erwin virtually all of the power
which the two Broughton Legis
latures gave him. If the bill now
being considered is passed and it
likely will be then count ' Super
intendent Erwin out regarding
anything concerned with the hand
ling of school funds. In 1941 and
again in 1943, and all along in
between these years, Governor
Broughton turned his big double
barrelled ffuns on the old State
School Commission. If nothing
goes amiss, the whole business will
backfire and the State School
Commission call it what you will
will run the school finances of
North Carolina, and Erwin will
have little say-so. It is apparent
that he has little or no influence
with the Legislature. Erwin is a
very personable fellow, hut is a
babe in the woods when it comes
to political maneuvering.
TRIAL The trial of Dr. Leon
R. Meadows, ex-president of East
ern Carolina Teachers College, is
expected to run for at least an
other week. He is charged with
failure to account for more than
$18,000 handled by him while he
was the head man at E. C. T. C.
Will he be found guilty? In con
sidering this query, don't over
look this point: 10 of the 12 per
sons on the jury are farmers of
Pitt county.
Those who have attended the
trial are araazed at Dr. Meadow's
calm manner even under cross
examination. "That fellow is just
as much at ease as you would be
at home listening to your favorite
radio program," remarked one
man in the audienee- last week. '
If Dr. Meadows Is found guilty,
he can look for more trouble from
the Federal income tax folks. And
the amount the Stale is now spend
ing in trying him will not be much
less than the $18,000 the defendant
is charged with misappropriating:

WHO? The question now is
who will be the new Federal judge
for Eastern North Carolina. Well,
this will be left largely to O. Max
Gardner, who is very close to the
President, and Comptroller Gen
eral Lindsay Warren, also an FDA
stalwart.
Any Congressman in the east
would be glad to get the place,
for there is not much money in
being a Congressman, believe it
or not, what with having to run

Your car is older than ever before. . .
and it's still got far to go. . . how Jar no man
can promise you. Keep that in mind as Spring
comes on... care never meant so much as now!
It may seem hard to realize that the last new cars were built over 3 years
ago . . . the average ear in use today is over 7 years old! As a car owner,
you never faced a situation like this. NOW just to save that car calls for
the best care you can get. Whatever your past practice, however much or
little you drive your car, this spring be sure
to get (1) good, clean oil ... (2) a good, thorough
chassis lubrication ... (3) a good, careful check
up of battery and tires and radiator. You know
you can count on Esso Dealer care. You know
you nxeo it now As never before! Don't delayl
