W. Graeiber, in charge of Forestry Extension at State College, “and will cut from 6,000 to 10,000 board feet of lumber per day." The timber harvester, as it is called, will be on display for three days, Mr. Graeber said, and a demonstration of it’s use will be held on Wednesday moriiing, August 27. Included )viith the Forestry ex hibits will be a tree planting ma chine, fire protection fequipmeiit, chain saws, bow saws, and circu lar saws on wheels. Each of these implements wiill be displayed in the college gymnasium, ' and de monstrations will be given oil the proper use of them. The' tree planting'maohiines are designed- so that three men with the use of them can plant Approx imately 12,006 trees per day. An exhiSk-demonstration show ing the various methods of treat ing fence posts has been arranged to give farmers proper proce dures to follow in this money an^ labor saving job. 'ThS exhibit was prepared by the United States Forest Products Laboratory of Madison, Wis. and detailed ex planation of the various methods will be given, ■ and' made appli cable to farm conditions. As a part of this program, Mr. Greaber will discuss “Management of- Farm Woods for the Production V of ‘Fence Posts and Other Pro ducts.” All of .these, plus inany other interesting 'exhibits and demon strations pertaining to farming and D homemaking go to make up the busy activities of the week of August 25-29, Farm and Home (Raleigh, August IS^Tobacco farmers in the Border Belt are losing thousands of dollars by not taking fuU advantage of govern ment Support prices offered on the wMehouse floors by the Flue Cured 'T^acco Stabilization Cor poration, it was reported by W. P. Hedrick, tobacco specialipt with the State Departmnet of Ag riculture. Hedrick said a survey of sales in the border markets showed a large amount of tobacco’ being sold below govprniment floor prices.; “I saw pile ^fter pile gO(iing from $1 to $5 per hundred pounds be low the support price”, he re ported, “and in some cases far mers were letting theii: tobacco A ■ ^ go ffom $,11 to $15 per/ hundred below. ■ - / “Prices are beginnifig to level off at just aiboye support figures by grade, and it is becoming in creasingly- important that the growers Check every pile as his tobacco is being sold. “Most of the warehouses ^are cooperating’ wfth growers having the personnel to assist the farm er in making, support prices a vailable. However, it is-> still dif ficult in some-cases for the grow er to locate the warehouse em ployee designated to turn tobagcp, over to the Stabilization Corpo nation.” Hedrick says faraners should follow the sale of their tobacco, acquaint themselves with sup port prices and, when a buyer bids below the support prices, call a warehouseman and have the sale nullified and the tobac co swished’ to the Stabilisation Corporation. It is the farmer’s responsibility to check bid prices against sup port prices and get the -highest figure for his tobacco, Hedrick said.; ® r— A boll weevil will lay on the \ ( \ ■' /CHEVROLET ,4 Only Aflvcince-Desigh ' Chevrolet trucks coffer all these NEW TRUCK FEATURES Come inoncfsee •«k NEW Advance Design—NEW c«b that “breathe8”-NEW Uniweld, all-steel construction—NEW dur able, fully, adjustable seats—NEW 22% greater visibility-NEW Flexi- Mounted cab—b^W stronger temes—NEW incteased load since in panels wd pick-ups—NEW eflEi- dent loading |n stake and high rack bodies—NEW thorough seal ing and insulation—plus scores of other NEW features too numerous to mention! average’ of 6.4 eggs per day.
