Leslie Smith of Kenansville Is In The Group. Seven out of every eleven dol lars received from farms in Du plin County comes from tobacco. With disease and insect problems growing worse yearly. It is essen tial that farmers use every pre caution to control these enemies of tobacco producers. L. F. Weeks, County Agent states that all tobacco stalks should be cut down and disced In to the soil as early as possible af ter the last leaves are harvested. This will aid in destroying the di seases and insects now surviving on the old plants. As early as pos sible in the fall, a seeding of win ter legumes, small grain mixtures or other winter cover crops should follow. If a definite tobacco ro tation is not fillowed, a field should be selected where tobacco has not been planted within three years and seeded to a winter crop, excluding winter legume to be followed next spring with tobac co.
