seriously threatened by actual and
impending shortage* of iron and
■tad scrap. Civilian shortages of
steel including steel for farm implements
tiid parts needed by farmers
will , be more sewn if steal milts
cannot be kept naming to capacity.
A certain proportion of scrap steel is
needed to combine with the peg iron
in charging steal furnaces. From
many companies the Office of Production
Management is receiving
void that unless their supply of
scrap is inereaaed shutdowns wfll
ensue, Furthermore, the approach
at winter sad the possibility of ttaiw-!
portati on difficulties liter make it
important to move as much scrap as
possible at ones in order that it may
be pat late service father than rust
in junk piles.
The farms of the United States
haw been one of the most important
sources of scrap supplies. Recently
the flow of such scrap has diminished
doe to a number of circumstances
and evidently to some misunderstandIt
is important now that this
of scrap from the farms be increased
to the highest possible point.
Other sources we being drained and
th« Nation needs the scrap that is on
the farms.
There will be increased profits to
the farmer for turning over this metal
to local dealers. Price ceiling have
been set for iron and steel scmp by
Leon Henderson, Price Administrator,
as a means of preventing profiteering
and of keeping the cost of
defense down. Farmers are asked,
therefore, to. sell their scrap as a
service to the Nation rattier than as
way of making money.
Fanners are not expected, however,
to give this scrap away, and the
Office of Production Management
desires that fanners get the full
value of this material.
Scrap metal, like most commodities,
is graded and classified. Some
grades are worth mow than others.
Farm scrap generally falls into a
group known aa No. 2 Heavy Melting
Steel Scrap. A price ceiling of 77c
per 100 Iba., dlivered at Atlanta, Ga.,
and .varying prices for delivery at
other points has been fixed by OPM.
From this price the cost of preparing
(that is sorting, cutting and
;i . : '• : -1 •''*/ ■;\. . k:s*.*ji;» i 4.v.;
handling) and shipping must to deducted.
In N. C. farmers should receive
40c to 56c per 100 lbs. for farm
temp not including sheet metal.
Scrap metal dealers we licensed
by the state and are located in about
half the counties. There are also
persons who boy jtmk in most towns
and so-called peddlers who go from
farm to Harm. As these last hare no
means of weighing the metal it is
recommended that wherever possible
farmers deliver their scrap metal to
the yard of a licensed dealer. There
are four in Pitt County. They are
3. W. Ellis, Fannvffle; J. Sam Fleming,
Greenville; A. J. Rosser, Ayden;
and Mary S. Moore, Greenville.
Nothing should be sold for scrap
that can be used on the farm, in the
home, or in the community: bolts,
nuts, wishers, rods, braces, angle
iron, flat bars, or tool steal or any
part which might be used to repair
farm machinery or for other purposes
should not be sold.
Old papers and magazines should
be wrapped in a bundle and sold.
Sheet metal and fence wire should be
assembled and sold. Old tires can
be sold. Glass and bottles are not
desired.
