STEAKS -FRIED CHICKEN OYSTERS North Carolina agricul ture, determined to hold its war-expanded markets by maintaining quality produc tion, has placed more than 27,000,000 acres of cropland under the soil conservation service. "This growing emphasis on soil care means that we food distributors can anticipate receiving improved quality of produce from North Ca rolina farms," said Harvey A. Baum, head of A & P food stores' produce-buying oper ations. "As purchasers of $607,538 of this state's pro- 3 ALL KINDS OF SANDWICHES BEER SOFT DRINKS NOW OPEN-Curb Service-TRY US DPEN 10 A. M.

Soil Conservation Points The Way To Better Farm Yield IMPORTANT NOTICE To Our Fertilizer Customers: It looks as if the steel strike, followed by the coal strike, has just about ended whatever hope we had of getting an adequate supply of Nitrate of Soda, Cal-Nitro, or Sulphate of Ammonia, this season. The manufacturers simply cannot run without coal, and the demand made on them for nitrogen materials is heavier than ever, not only from this country, but also f om abroad. The only safe answer we know now to the situation is prompt use of regular crop fertilizers for top dressing. We have a Imiited amount of 5-10-5 premium goods, and also a limited amount of 6-8-6 general crop goods. In addition to this we may be able to supply very small amounts of 10-0-10 or Cyanamid later. Whatever supplies of Nitrate of Soda, Cal-Nitro, or Top Dressers, are available to us will be delivered as they come in, on a pro-rata basis of our early bookings for these materials. Your patience and forbearance are appreciated. We are doing our very best to obtain all the nitrogen mat erials we can for you. The Johnson Co. duce last year, our company has a stake in the efforts of growers to step up fertility of their soil. In many soil conservation districts during the war our field buying of fices found production of fruits and vegetables up as much as 20 percent. Much of this was due to pre-war soil-saving practices." Baum pointed out that at the present time more than half of the nation's agricul tural land nearly 800,000,- 000 acres on 3,592,000 farms 1 n45 states is under such planning, more than 228,000 North Carolina farms enrol led. Besides improving the qua lity and increasing the vol ume of farm production crop land conservation coincides with a growing efficency in the distribution of food, he said. The war emphasized the need for beter packaging, speedier shipment, more ef fective refrigeration and a concerted war on waste. Combined with such im provements in distribution, the efforts of farmers to pro duce more efficiently will mean a general reduction of the nation's food bill and an increase in farm income, Baum said. -o- BRIEFS X ft ATTENTION We are equipped to expertly repair all automo bile speedometers and farm tractor magnetos and to give one-day service on these units.
