It is expected that this special pool arrangement will .'permit an early distribution to gTdwers. Ordinarily distribution of pet gains is not made until afterjdispositon of all of the obacco of any.crop year. In mak ing the announcement of the spec ial plan, department officials ex plained that mixed planted tobac co containing limited percentage of the 'discount varieties' should have a relatively higher value than crops consisting largely or entirely of these varieties. The special plan which has been authorized f pr handling this kind of mixed plant ed tobacco will permit its sale more advantageously since it will be con centrated" and offered in packed form. R. B.

The following is the story honoring Mr. Herring. KJNSTON Charles Jack Her ring Is a name synonymous with the tobacco industry all over East ern North Carolina and particularly in Kinston Where large portion of tobacco sold on the Kinston mar ket i suctioned off on the floor of Kinsten's Star Warehouse own ed and operated by Charlie Herring. Charlie bM$ been an gxpert in the protection end sale OttoMCCO since he was a lad of 12 years add work' ed as a grader in the tobacco park house on his Daddy's farm in his na tive county of Duplin. Charlie was reared and educated in Glisson Township, Duplin County, and spent his boyhood days down near Goshen Swamp and N. E. River in the B. F. Grady section of. Duplin. Charlie resides here ' in Kinston at 1211 W. Vernon Avenue with his loVely wife, the former Delia Bjitt from Newton Grove in Johnson County. Charlie and Delia Herring have four fine sons who bid fair to inherit their father's tendencies to succeed in the tobacco warehous ing business.' Kis eldest son, Char les, Jr., is 22 years old and is en gaged to marry the charming Miss Rachel Barber of Moss Hill on Aug ust 9. Their other three sons are Leroy 20; Jimmy, 18; and Dortsch, 16 years old. Charlie first entered the warehousing business in White ville more than 20 years ago and since that time has operated tobacco auction houses iff'Georgla and Vir ginia as well as Clarkton and Kin stonv ,,He is now proprietor and manager of the Stai1 Warehouse here in kinston and has been a big fac tor in the growth and development of Kinston's tobacco market for the past 10 years. In fact, his Star Ware house, with its 127,000 sq. ft. was a major factor in the growth of our market from fourth place- in the Bright Leaf Belt 6 years ago to 2nd place today. ' The Star Waresouse can accommodate more than a quar ter million pounds of tobacco every day during the selling season, and this house alone has exceeded 10, 000,000,000 lbs, in one year.; As we said, Charlie Herring )s also interested in two tobacco ware houses In Metter, Georgia in addi tion to his "present local interests. Following hie attendage from school and his Childhood experience : in growing and selling tobacco, he was a speculator for some 4 years before entering the warehousing business on his own. Charlie Herring says be chose the tobacco business because hi iob as a kid was grading In pre paration for shipment to market tpC during .this time he gained a keen desire -to operate his own warehouse. His reasons for moving to Kinston from Whlteville io 1947 Are Not Backing ' It has been rumored for the past" few days that the Warsaw Junior Chamber of Commerce has endorsed and is backing the upcoming Beer Referendum in Warsaw. The following statement is releas ed today by the Warsaw Jaycees through its Secretary Joe Costin: The Warsaw Junior Chamber of Commerce, as an organization, is NOT (Supporting, backing or spon soring the Beer Referendum that is to be held in Warsaw, Signed Joe Costing secretary.' Notice Relocation of a section of high voltage power lines will necessi tate a power interruption Sunday morning in part of Duplin Coun ty, according to L. A. Pearce, Lo cal Manager for Carolina Power and Light Company. Pearce explained that early morning was chosen as the time a power interruption is least like ly to cause customers inconveni ence. The interruption will permit linemen to make repairs on the main lines; and crews will take advantage of the outage, Pearce added to perform maintenance work that would be dangerous with the lines energized. Power will be off between 5:00 and 7:00 AJM., Sunday, August 4, 1957.' The area to be affected in cludes Warsaw, Bowden, i'urkey, Magnolia, Kenansville, Beulaville, Chinquapin, Rose Hill and Char ity. On Llinsfon , CBARMB ' HEB8INQ are many, but his foremost reason was because of his faith in Kinston as the best tobacco market any where and the many fine farmers with whom he was already acquain. ted during his years of selliug to bacco on the Kinston market before operating the Star Warehouse as owner and manager. The Charlie Herrings are staunch members of Kinston's Queen Street Methodist Church where .Charlie serves on the official board. He is also a- member of both the Elks and Moose Lodge, a 32nd Degree Mason, and is Vice-President of the Kin ston Shrine Club and is slated to be elevated to the presidency in the next few weeks. . . , ' Charlie Herring's tobacco inter ests just about consum all of his time, yet he likes to engage In golf ing occasionally at "the Country Club course and occasional week ends of boating and fishing at his cottage on Atlantic! Beach where he also owns ctfmmeccial proper ties. Charlie Herristt'is very compli mentary about his adopted home town and in addition to being af fectionately attached to i his love ly home is now engaged in building a new home for his eldest son and his wife to be after August 9. Charlie Herring, as we said, is a leader in the tobacco auction busi ness, and on behalf of the Kinston Chamber of Commerce it is a great privilege to spotlight him and honor him as our KINSTONIAN FOR TO DAY. rf, WW 1 II I I ; r t Jgs3 iiemm To It was announced this morning by J.

Student On Visit In Duplin Francoli Grenier De Monner, I F. Y.E. student of Bourges, France, ar rived in Duplin last Saturday, where he will live on various farms in the county. On these farms he will join in the activity of farm life and observe the various methods of farming and harvesting. Frank, as we will call him, comes from a 750 acre grain and cattle farm. He is a high school graduate and has attended two years of law school. When asked what he was most interested in he was quick to answer, the white turkeys. He stat ed that he wanted to learn all about our farm machinery, livestock and not surprised to -Warn that tobacco Is grown fat FranCTptiut found it interesting that .they" fcave a tobacco control, in that the grow ers are controlled on thriumbev of stalks they can set out. No of stalks they can set out; No stalk can have more than 10 leaves and if the stalks bear more that; the desig nated amount, the farmer is prohi bited from growing tobacco for two years. ; It was also interesting to learn that sugar beets are another money crop. These are graded end sold ac cording to the sugar content and not by the quantity. Beets are grown in 39000 to 42000 plants per acre and are harvested by hand.; Wheat and barley" are also grown, on "Frank's father's farm. - Arriving in America five weeks ago, Frank made the trip by air, from Paris, and made stops in Bos ton, New York and Washington. He spent one week in Washington and arrived in Raleigh, where he at- tended 4-H Club Week and two weeks in 4-H Camp. His visit to the United States is sponsored by the National 4-H Club Foundation and the U. 5. Agricul ture Extension Service. The Inter national Farm Wouth Exchange is to promote international good will throughout the world. There are 51 countries participating includ ing the U. S. Those countries are; Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin Ameri ca, The Pacific and Middle East. In 1956, 125 I.F.Y.E. students of the U. S. visited other countries of the world with 181 visiting the U. S. from various countries. Since the I.F.Y.E. program be gan in 1948, eight hundred and forty delegates have visited this country. They spend approximate ly 6 months here.
