If HeadMi from left to right the Farmers to Report . On AAA Compliance Individuals placed on honor in move to save travel, manpower, in IMS " In an effort to reduce travel and use of manpower, farmers of Dup lin County the year' wUl report their on compliance with provisions of the 1943 AAA program, it was announced today by Arthur Whit field chairman of the County AAA Committee. "Under this plan, which may be called honor system, we hope to save money, travel, tires, gasoline and the time of persons who other wise probably would be engaged in agricultural production" Chairman Herring said. "This plan is being put into effect over the entire na tion this year and we in Duplin County certainly can meet up to standards of farmers in any other county." ' " Under this program, he said, each farmer wUl measure his ac reage and wUl report it to hi; County AAA Office on forms to bo provided by the office. Farmers also will report acreages oi crops grown for soil-building purposes and for which there is a payment made under the AAA program. Marketing quotas will be in effect this vear onlv on cotton and tob acco, Mr. Whitfield said ,but war crops, such as peanuts, soybeans or oil and sweet, potatoes for market must be measured and re ported for the purpose of determi ning if goals were met. Commer cial truck crops & Irish potatoes for market also must be reported for the purpose of determining in centive payments. i. ; 4 VThe most likely procedure far mers will follow is to measure and determine acreage before crops are planted and then stay within the acreage set aside for this pur pose" Mr. Whitfield said. "In such cases, it is .imperative that fai mere retain their records for use in substantiating their reported acreage.1 The record or measure ments Should include a sketch of the fields measured and distances may be shown toy chains, yards, or feet; When '. computed, ; however the measurements' must show the same total acreage as reported by the farmer." ' In past years, measurements of individual farms have been made by community committeemen or others employed t by ' the "AAA. Committeemen this year will be expected to assist farmers in mak ing theif reports, will review all reports and will measure acreages on a certain percentage of farms in their communities, in" cases where errors are plainly evident, the committeemen also will make special checks.. 4 , CsuIovKIa Names Uzvf Mayor Ransom Mercer of Beulaville, former member of the town board w named bv the board as Mayor succeo "-?

Our final-quota was $170,500 of which more than $40,000 was sold the first morning of the campaign. ---imHmsvme reported sales of $525 by the Kenansville Produc tion Credit Association, $200 by ine post ornce and $39,176.10 by Mitchell Allen of the Waccamaw Bank and Trust Company.

Mr; Thompson stated that the drive will continue in Duplin through April 30, saying "remem ber, every bond we can buy now will reduce our quota in the next drive which will probably be about August". 13 HOME NURSERY CLASSES COMPLETED Miss Jennie McMasters of Mar ion S.

Irish Potatoes are Damaged by Cold Raleigh, 'April 19 Reports from eastern North Carolina indi cate rather severe cold damage to Irish potatoes in some sections M. E. Gardner, head of the horti cultural department at State col lege, has revealed. Some early plantings were in jured April 4, and were recovering when they were further injured April 14 and 15, he said. - The horticulturist said that if plants are killed by frost soon aft er they emerge, they will recover without serious damage, but if they are killed a second time a reduction in yield and grade is to. be expected. ' As to whether it is best to plow up or replant, he said that estab lished growers would survey their own situations and act in accord ance with their best judgment, based upon past experience." For the new growers, who are plant ing potatoes for the first time, he suggested that they consult their county agents before deciding what should be done. When asked about replanting, Gardner said:: "It may seem a lit lte late to replant; but the emer gency may justify such action."
