During the three-week rat con trol program, over 500 pounds of rat bait was distributed in areas which have been 'over-run by rats for several years.'

BY MARGARET TUCKER Saturday proved to be a busy day for Patrolman Willie Rogers, who investigated three wrecks that hos pitalized four persons.

Bill Mills, turkey specialist with North Carolina State College Ex tension Service, said the turkey expansion is brought about primar ily by farmers in Eastern North Carolina who are seeking new me thods of income. With the cut in tobacco acreage and thus the income of North Caro lina's tobaccoland, turkey produc tion for some of the farmers, who are financially able to sponsor such programs, seems a good means for adding to the area income. Duplin County, which is expect ed to produce more than one-third of the State's total estimate, has jumped from a 1956 production of 200,000 to an estimated C50.C00 for 1957. This also means that Duplin Coun ty will replace Union County as the number one turkey producing County in North Carolina. Mills said that. Duplin's fast ex pansion will 'definitely exceed Un ion County's estimated production of 250.000 turkeys in 1957. This rapid growth is no accident. It is well a planned and calculated move. Most of the production is by 10 producers. The largest singls turkey grower is Johnson's Turkey Farms near Rose Hill. They expect to grow approximately 350,000 birds. Whether a turkey producer is growing 20,000 or 350,000 turkeys annually, the important factors which determine success or failure are feed and good management- r of the.gjWto iie-d to feeding out the birds i iW locally, in three, or four county area, Duplin, Wayne, Sampson and Pender. This locally grown grain is pro bably the biggest single reason that growers in Duplin County are able to expand turkey production. It means that feed costs can be kept to an absolute minimum. When the market 'gets rough', this is more important than ever. For example, the grower's for Johnson's Turkey Farms are allow ed to use their own grain. Thus, the bulk of the grain used for feed ing the birds is grown by the tur-! ,uiu ' iiiwiii c iaet .in V ,. , - ... t v'.
