With almost every necessity and
luxury of life soaring skyward..
Farmville citizens are rejoicing over
the ten per cent reduction in theft
electric current statements received
this week, which discount will be
allowed if the bill is paid by the
10th of the month. And we are bold
to prophecy the best collection for
the next few days that this de
partment has experienced.
Ever alert to the economies.of ad
ministration and awake to the needs
of the town as a whole, the Board of
Aldermen, composed of Dr. W. M.
Willis, George W. Davis, J. W. Joy
ner, J. M. Standi and Arch Flana
gan, and headed by Mayor John B.
Lewis, are always seeking channels
by which a real service to the citi
zens aa individuals may be affect
ed. This act of lessening the cos;
of current is one of the most com
mendable of any step taken in
months in behalf of the citizens In
oar opinion, for it actually puts pen
nies and dollars back into the purse
of every family having the good
fortune to live here.
We understand a farther cut is
being comtemplaled and wouid sug
gest that our townspeople, who have
observed and approve of *hia praise
worthy effort to save them hundreds
of dollars each month, express their
appreciation vocally or by letter to
thoee who are responsible for thls
saving.
Many Vegetables
Grown In Winter
The fail and winter garden should
be a source of fresh vegetables for
every rural family during the cold
weather months, says Miss Mary E.
Thomas, extension nutritionist at
State College. *
The primary objective of the fall
and winter garden contest, sponsor
ed by the extension service, is to sti
mulate the growing of more vege
table during this period of the year.
The contest is open to any home
garden grown by a rural family in
North Carolina. Details about the
contest and the prizes may be ob
tained from county farm or home
demonstration agents, Miss Thomas
?aid.
The following suggestions regard
ing fad and winter gardens have
been recommended by H. R. Niswon
ger and E. B. Morrow, extension
horticulturists at the college.
In eastern North Carolina most of
the fall and winter vegetables should
he {dented in September. It is too
late for the tender crops, but the
hardier vegetables will produce a
good yield if planted now.
Among the vegetables to start at
this time are: Siberian and green
mried Scotch kale, head lettuce,
mustard, spinach, turnips, radishes,
and broccoli.
Cabbage and onion seed may be
?own in outdoor beds the latter part
oi the month and transplanted in
Dersndisi. January, or February, de
pending upon local climatic con
uIPOHJ.
In enaU i u North Carolina the ten
der vegetables must be given time
to mature before the first killing
frost, which usually occurs around
the middle of October. For this
year's crop, the plantings yet to be
made must be limited to the hardier
tsgefeb'm which will withstand cold
weather and heavy freezes.

of $6,624,229.81 in rental and bene
fit payments during the fiscal year
| ending June 30, 1935. Farmers of
| Greene County received $324,231.30. ;
These payments together with the j
increase in prices paid to fanners !
for their commodities have been re- \
fleeted in the larger income being ?
received by farmers, said Dean I. 0. <
Schaub of State College.
From 1932 to 1934, he pointed out, j
the total income of North Carolina ?
farmers increased by approximately
155 per cent, or from $104,362,000 to \
$266,449,000. The 1933 income was ?
$194,390,000.
The total AAA payments to, far- )
mers of the State during the past '
fiscal year ran to $14,732,147.51,' di- <
vided as follows: tobacco growers
$8,015,380.21, cotton growers $5,945,- ;
844.43, corn-hog producers $719,363.- i
20, and wheat growers $51,599.67. ]
During this period the expense of J
administering the programs amount- <
ed to $1,147,20.71, or approximately \
seven per cent of the total AAA dis- *
burse men ta in the State.
The administration expenses were !
largely payments to county and com- )
munity committeemen who were se- ?
lected from among the farmers to
assist the'county agents locally with '
the crop adjustment programs. 4
