ROBERT B. TILDEN Interest Shown In Producing Manufacturing Milk' In County About twenty farmers attended a meeting on the production and marketing of “manufacturing milk” Jt the courthouse in Hillsboro, March 5th. Willard A. Patterson, Field Hepresentative for tl»e White house Milk Company of South Bos; <1^, told the group that tMIe ittant needed 100,000 pounds of milk daily to be used in the production of evaporated milk. He explained that the price paid to the produc ers would have to bo in line with the price level throughout the United States, because the finished product is sold in competition with similar products produced in Wis consin and other dairy centers. He further pointed out that there are no restrictions in the production ot “manufacturing milk” and the equipment necessary is very inex pensive. Many producers on these routes with ten cows are receiving a gross check of $140 per month. An abun dance of pasture and home-grown feed is the first essential in the production Qtth&t type Ifc Mr. Patterson is coming into the county Thursday of this week and is going with the County Agent to visit twelve farmers who are in terested in the production of “man ufacturing milk.” At present, two milk routes touch the northern part of the county, but if a sufficient number of pro ducers in other parts of the coun ty indicate a willingness to sell a few cans of milk, these routes can be extended to take care of them. It was suggested that farmers 1 interested in converting their grass Speed Restrictions Established At Request Of Local Group Signs have been erected desig nating Highway 70-A as a 35 MPH zone from its western junction "with the Highway 70 bypass to Churton Street in the town of Hillsboro, a distance of .8 of a mile. The action was taken by the State Highway Commission as re sult of a petition'*submitted to it by the Hillsboro Improvement As sociation, which also sought sim ilar restriction on Highway 70. The request for a speed zone on High way 70 bypass was denied because “there is not sufficient roadside development between the truck weight station and the junction with N. C. 86 to warrant a restric tion,” said the highway spokes man. The petition for speed restric tions in the area was advanced by the Improvement Association for the “safety and welfare” of the school children who cross the high ways twice daily. The fatal acci dent involving a Negro school child in the area and the fact that children cross the highways in large numbers daily were cited in the argument for the zoning. Ed Nash Faucette served as chairman of the special committee which sought the change in the speed limit for this section. In his report on the study of the special zone request, Robert A. Burch, State Highway Commission traffic engineer, speaking of the Highway 70 bypass, said: “This road was built to high design standards and sight distance is very good on this section. A re duced speed zone along this sec tion would impose an undue re striction on motorists and would command little or no respect and compliance.” . Burch recommended in nis re port that 35 m.p.m. advisory safe speed signs be erected beneath the crossroad symbol signs on both sides of these two crosroads on U. S. 70. It was recommended that oversize advisory sate speed signs be used. He saicT that the Commission is in sympathy with parents of the children who have to' cross this road. He felt that enactment of an unwarranted speed restriction would do'diltlc or no good towards affording protection for these crossings. The Improvement Association will bring the recommendation that a uniformed person or the school patrol assist children across US 70 to the attention of the Board of County Commission ers. and surplus feed into milk dollars should contact the County Agri cultural Agents. funds For On Five County Roads £et Up The State Highway Commission has approved and set up funds for retreating five roads in the coun ty. This work involves mat and drag seal retreatment on the following roads: 3 81 miles of Old Pittsboro Hoad; 3.40 miles of Cedar Grove Ayeock School Road; 1.50 miles of Efland-Cedar Grove Road; four miles of NC 157 from NC 57 to the Person County line; and five miles of NC 57 from Caldwell Co the Per son County line. !_ It is anticipated that work on these roads will be completed on or before August 1 of this year at a combined, estimated cost of $01, 518.00. 2 Once funds have been approved for similar projects, the money is encumbered until such tfbie as the work is completed.
