The North Carolina markets in this belt will open August 3. According to the United States and North Caro lina Departnu-r.'.s uf Agriculture initial sales on the South Carolina markets in 1052 Were held Monday,. July 28 unci on the North Carolina markets Monday, August 4. Last year final sales in this belt were held October 29. The U. S. Crop Reporting Board estimated production of the 1953 crop of Type 13 as of July 1, to be 289,050.000 pounds. Although the acreage this year was cut 8r,,' this poundage if realized would be slightly more than was produced in 1952. The increase is due to an ex pected yield of 1.390 pounds per acre against 1.2U9 last season. Total flue-cured production for all types was placed ;it 1.319.704.000 pounds, or around 3.3 percent less than the 1952 crop.

Producers'' sales of all llue-cu;ed tobacco last ear amounted to 1,357,635,6113 lbs. and averaged o5a.-l7. Opinion of most tobacconists is that the crop as a whole will be some better than the one grown in 19;'. Because of a very mild winter plants were ready for transplanting earlier than usual, however, the grow th was retarded because of cool weather the first part of April. Hot and dry weather in June and July cut the yield somewhat but much needed rains have arrived in most sections developing a crop believed! to be very desirable for domestic use.

Editorial DUPLIN WANTS SCOUT' EXECUTIVE Tuscarora Council of the Boy Scouts of America is trying to hire a new field executive. Applicants for the position are being interview ed by officials of the council and all applications will be considered. Money has already been appropri ated for the salary of the new exe cutive who will serve Sampson and Duplin counties. Recently the new field executive, hired by the council was assigned to serve Johnston and Wayne Coun ties and is living in Smithfield. Field Executive Bill Hewitt, who recently resigned to re-enter the ministry, served the three counties-, of Johnston, Sampson and Wayne, Mr. Hewitt lived in Clinton. Pre viously, the field executives had lived in Goldsboro. It has been noted that the quality of Scouting improves considerably by having the field executive re side in the county he serves. Dup lin County feels that it is her time to have a field executive reside la the county, since it is the only coun ty out of the four which has not had an executive as a resident. The -citizens of Duplin County sincere ly hope that the Executive Board of Tuscarora Council will take this . into consideration when the new executive is hired and that the luality of Scouting will improve in the county accordingly. One "way to solve tile vacation ' problem is to stay home and let the. mind wander. Power without responsibility is. the key to most highway disasters; these days.
