During the past three years, Dup lin has shown a "remarkable" turn from tobacco to other agriculture enterprise with broiler leading the way. It has been said by many agricul ture workers who study the situa tion that broilers will brini? higher gross income to Duplin in 1958 than will tobacco-which has lor so many years been "kinir' The Rose Hill section is the Bro- From Our Readers Mr. J. Robt Grady, Editor The Duplin Times Kenansville, N. C. Dear Bob: Yqu are kind enough to have me on your mailing list and I alwavs enjoy looking over the paper each week when it comes. I always find something of inter est in it. In last week's issue is an item of particular interest to me. The fact that Rufus Elks has been named manager of the Duplin County ASC office. Though now in Halifax Countv. Rufus is a Beaufort County boy and, having known him since he was a little fellow I can tell you Duplin County is getting a good man. We know this is a promotion for him !of the Year" awards ller Capitol of Duplin and Eastern North Carolina and if progress con tinues at its present rate, the broiler capitbl of North Carolina could be come Duplin County. Dennis Ramsey, pioneer in the broiler business in Duplin, indi cated today that his operation is feeding out approximately (more of less) 5,000,000 broilers annually Nash Johnson, who also is an old broiler promoter, said his firm will ship to processing plants about 5,000,000 birds annually. A new organization in Rose Hill composed of five business men, will produce about 5,000,000 during 1958 With this in mind and consider ing the fact that Marlowe Bostic.of Rose Hill, indicated that he be lieves there are enough houses un der construction now in Duplin to house another 1,000,000 broilers at one time. This points out just how rapidly Duplin is growing in broiler production. The County will probably produce around 20,000,000 broilers in 1958. There is some talk of a process ing plant establishing in Duplin, probably in Wallace. A group of Wallace business men have affirmed a statement that they are working to secure a processing plant in the area, but nothing definite has been learned and thus their work to date cannot be published At the present, broilers are being sent to Raleigh, RobersonviUe, Lumberton and other towns tot processing. One of the reasons a local pro cess plant is needed is to prevent loss of bird-weight in transit. Bro iler producers are now being paid on-the-farm prices. The buyer takes the loss in shipping to processing plants. Broilers are not the only poultry being raised in Duplin. Nash John son is probably the biggest turkey producer in the County, feeding out 150,000 turkeys this year. Mur ray Brothers, of Mount Olive, are feeding out several thousand tur keys near Kenansville. Johnson says that about 300,00 turkeys will be produced in the County through his firm. Duplin has shown that agricul ture does have another side-other than tobacco-and is paving the way toward a better agriculture eco nomy in Eastern North Carolina.
