' 1 County Agent Advises Duplin Farmers On Method Of Increasing Corn Yield Two pounds of nitrogen will make about a bushel of corn, says Vernon Reynolds, farm county ag? ent of Duplin County, and growers can substantially increase their net income from this crop by side dressing 80 to 100 pounds of nitro gen per acre. i Reynolds points out that with nitrogen costing about 14 cents per pound applied, and corn at $1.25 to $1.30 per bushel, an investment in this amount of sidedressing is a sound money - making proposition. On the other sand, he said, if corn is not given adequate nitrogen, the grower will almost surely fail to receive any net return from his in vestment in labor, seed and fertil izer. While corn yields per acre in North Carolina have gone up stead ily in recent years, they are still a long way from reflecting efficient production. Reynolds said. And many low yields of corn in Duplin are directly the result of inade quate nitrogen fertilization, he ad ded, as many growers do not aide- dress with enough nitrogen and others do not put out any of this important nutrient at all. To get the most out of nitroeen topdressing, the county agent con BRIEFS VlSITtNO QUARTET Rev. B. A.

Up to this time, witchweed has been found only in Bladen, Colum bus, Cumberland, and Robeson Counties, in North Carolina, and Dillon, Horry, Marion, audi Marl boro Counties in South Carolina. Agricultural scientists are Hard at work trying to find out just which plants witchweed attacks and the conditions which favor its growth. The N. C.
