Of Orange Paul Shelton, Fairfield, and Wilbur Poole, Carr’s Store, last week planned soil and water con servation plans for increasing pro duction and profit on their farms. Using land capability maps pro vided by their Neuse River Soil Tvorftervation District, they decided on the best, long-term use of each acre, and the meadow waterways, terracing systems, crop rotations, contour farming, stubble mulch ing, pasture, alfalfa, woodland management, wildlife field bor ders needed to keep it most pro ductive. "-c .-,-”*.-. --’ * ' ’ Victor and Julian Girrard, of the Cane Roberts farm, St. Mary’s are clearing low value hardwood from Capability Class III land to increase their cropland. The new ground will not be ready to terrace for a year or so. As an adjoining field needs some terraces now, however, they are planning a terrace system that can be extended to include the new ground as needed. B. C. Corbett and sons, Carr Store neighborhood, Clifton Par ker and Tom Bacon, Caldwell, and Harvey Ray, Buckhorn, are'among (he tobacco growers planning to run their rows this season by the string row method, so that more water will be held on the field for the crop and any surplus carried away slowly enough to avoid wash ing fertilizer and soil from the field. Small Increase In Flue-Cured I Tobacco Seen Wmmt~fcp6rts receive# from to bacco producers indicate that 688, 000 acres of the flue cured crop will he planted in North Carolina in 1954.. A crop this size Would be about 2 percent larger than the 674,000 acrees harvested last. year. Part, of the expected increase over 1953 rsults from a slight incrase in al lotments, while -part of it can be attributed to the fact that drought conditions curtailed the acreage to some extent in Piedmont ares last season. Thus, a normal acre age in Piedmont areas this year would reflect an increase sub-: stantially larger than the actual increase in allotments. Acreages by. types show 264,000 the Old and to 258.000 acres harvested last year, an increase of 4 percent; 334,000 acres to be planted in the Eastern Belt compared to 331,000 acres harvested in 1953. an in crease of 1 percent; 86,000 acres to be planted in the Border Belt compared to 85.000 last year* also an increase of about 1 percent. " For the United-States, the total flue-cured acreage to be planteed, this year is estimated at 1.041.000 acre<!_nearly 2 percent above the . I, 022 000 acrees harvested in 1953 j Burlev producers in the State expressed intentions to plant about 10 800 acres of tobacco this year,j or around 5 percent less than the II, 400 acres harvested in 1953. i Mi. os to bo planted in ilcSiitfSIleai# Dress-Up Week .y___ / • Is Designated For Barbers CHAPEL HILL-r-The week pre ceding Easterr April 10-17, has been designated “Dress-Up Week” for barber shops in North Caro lina. “Each shop owner is being ask. ed to make at least one improve ment—more if necessary—in his shop between now and Easter,” Y Z. Cannon, Chapel Hill, public re lations chairman for the Associat ed Master Barbers of North Car olina, announced. .Cannon sate such improvements can include a paint job,., a new sterilizer, new floor, lights, bar ber pole, or a new cylinder for the old pole. Or they could include new wait ing chairs, coat hangers, or jiew barber chairs and fixtures or both, he explained. “Anything to add to the appear, ance, convenience, and sanitary safety of your shop will be in line with this program,” he said. “This Would be a good time to put in air conditioning which, it has been demonstrated, is a good invest ment.” The idea, Cannon said, “is not. only to improve the appearance of the barber shops, but to show the public that the barbers' appre ciate its confidence and arc earn estly trying to live up to the laws regulating barbering.” He suggested that, wherever ■passible;-'shops' would do well to give free Easter nairculs at the county homes, old folks homes, and orphanages. We realise that some shops can do more than others, but every littlc bit wllf help,” he added: The Associated Master Barbers of North Carolina- inauguarated this improvement program in a letter to its members almost three months ago, and the response “has been encouraging," said Cannon. “Many shops have already express ed a destre to cooperate.” This project has also attracted national attention and been the subject ot articles in several na tionally - circulated barber maga zines, he said.
