Crop Reports TOBACVO By the end of last v?c<A only a \cry small aniciin' of I he tobacco crop remained in the fields. 1 he small proportion of the crop which remained for harvest was confined mostly to upper Piedmont flue cured producing counties and in Hurley producing areas of the | Mountains For flue-cured a large percent of the growers have not been very successful with the late harvested crop which is curing! out very much off-color and spot ted Grading and marketing of the flue-cured crop is progressing rap idly throughout the producing areas. r?K\ Very little change has l?ecii not ed in the reported condition of Corn during the past several weeks The condition of the crop is gen erally in only a poor to fail condi tion throughout the stale. Only in . a few scattered localities in the ? mountains and Ihe central and northern coastal plains is the crop reported to be good Prospects of | ??\%?ry Rood to "excellent are j practically unheard of this year. Harvesting of the coin crop is beginning to make lairlv good pro : gross thiouifhout the stale ll.irv- I esting operations in mountain and Piedmont localities, however, have j been mostly confined to forage and ftffage thus far In the coastal plains, close to one-fifth of the | crop has been harvested for grain j tluis far. IIAY fKOPS The vast majority of reports re ceived last week still show that | remaining hay crops were in poor to fair condition. Harvesting of late ha\ crops made some progress during the period and close to four-fifths of this year's hay crops were reported to have been har vested by this time APPl.KS Harvesting of the state's record size apple crop continued to make good progress last week It is es timated thai better than one-half of the fall crop in the commercial mountain areas has been harvested already. PASTl'ltlS Gcncrallj speaking, the condi tion of pastures showed very little change last week over conditions of the previous week. however. in some coastal plains areas where soil moisture lias been adequate during the past two or Ilirec.weeks, pastures are beginning to show signs of revival. Thus ;jt present the majority of rc|?orts from the Mountains and Piedmont still show pastures to be poor, whereas, most reports from the coastal plains show pasture* to lie fair The siatiis of pastures at present . is ver> critical Because of the , lateness of I lie season, il rains arc not received soon, pastures will go j into the winter in a ver\ weak con dition Thix. of course, could mean ' the loss of a tremendous acreage of pastures over the state, partieu i tal ly if we should have a severe 1 winter Mule than 3(H) million cubic feet ! of wood w as treated with preserva tives in the 1'nited State- in 105,1 PLUMBING and HEATING tit ARANTEFO WOIIK \T reasonable prices Either Contract Or By The Hotir DIAL CI. #-n??

I ??J ? * i Future Farmers To Get More Aid From 'Nickels ProqJ Nickels for Know-How, which has already paid for one 4R-page text for use by agriculture teach ers and students, will pay for an other in the near future. A. O. Bullard of the State I)e I partment of Public Instruction - vocational agriculture division, i said last week that the hist publi ' cation-?on soil fertility and fertil izer?filled the need for a complete North Carolina reference oil the subject. Kxisting texts were either out of date or did not combine the information into an overall reference that is needed irt the classroom. The next publication will deal with the production of Hue-cured tobacco. Nickels for Know-How will also make this possible. Bullard said that many agricul ; lure teachers have called Soil Fer j tility and Fertilizers their "most 1 valuable text". Reception of the i paper-bound book was such that the Agricultural Foundation, which administers Nickels for Know-How. approved funds I'm a similar text on flue-cured tobacco. Nickels for Know-How pays for. a total of 38 projects, most of them research in the State College School of Agriculture.

Alone, 1 can't af ford to pay for my own agricultural research and education; hut if I put my nickels with yours, we can buy at a bargain the know-how we alf need That's what we've done these past three years. We've each con tributed a nickel for every ton of feed and fertilizer we bought Our money has paid for new agricultural research and education in 38 fields. The projects?approved by the farmers from every county who represent us on our Agricultural Foundation at State College?are solving problems that hold back all of us. I think the answers I'm getting from these projects are well worth the few cents a year they cost me. 1 have a right to be sold on research and education.
