Com pared with farmers and ranchers in many part of the country, the Hoke County fsym community made out relatively well in the past year. Their gross receipts from the sale of crops, livestock and other commodities were at a com paratively high level, according to the final tabulations, recently re leased. Credit for it is attributed to high prices obtained for most farm products rather than to increased production. In general, throughout the country, that was the picture ? reduced output that was compen sated for by better prices. Crop receipts rose $8 billion in the year but livestock suffered a drop of$2 billion. As a result, gross farm income in the United States rose above the $100 billion mark for the first time, reaching $102 billion. The facts and figures for the local area and for other sections of the country are from a survey made by the Standard Rate and Data Service and from reports issued by the Department of Agriculture. Total receipts in Hoke County from farm operations in the past year are listed at $15,013,000. The previous year's total was SI 2.305.000. That was the gross return, before any allowances for taxes, labor costs, fuel, equipment and supplies. It represents the overall receipts from the sale of farm products, together with government pay ments and the value of home-grown foods consumed on the farm. The increase. 22 percent, com pares with a rise of 21 percent in the United States and with a 20 percent rise in the State of North Carolina. According to the most recent breakdown from the Department of Agriculture, approximately 43 per cent of the cash proceeds from farm marketings locally is from crops and 57 percent from the sale of livestock, poultry and dairy goods. Although gross income was up for most of the nation's farmers, their realized net income was not. Increased production expenses, es pecially in the form of sharply higher prices for seed. feed, fuel and fertilizer, and a cutback in government payments left them with a net income of S27.2 billion, which was about $5 billion less than in 1973. However, notes the Agriculture Department, it was the second best year on record. It topped 1972 by a wide margin. OLD CEMETER V - The McLean Family Cemetery is one of the spots that will be visited by the historical tour Saturday. tAr, heel > OUTDOOR? NAGS HEAD ? In teams of si*. 342 anglers spread out over 13 miles of beach here last week to fish in high winds and turbid water for a little fame, a little tackle and silver cup. They take it very seriously. It was the 25th annual Nags Head Surf Fishing Tournament. Ted Williams was on hand to serve as master of ceremonies at the banquet, which was attended by other celebrities and nearly all the contestants. Surfside Six of Nags Head had a slim chance for first place going into the last session, but the Elizabeth City Surf Fishing Club finished on top with 155 ftsh and 543 points. A lucky draw for fishing location the last afternoon didn't hurt. Surfside finished second with 90 fish and 451 points. Separated by only seven points with less than three hours of fishing to go. the teams squared off several miles apart along this resort strand. Surfside Six drew station number 10. which had produced only one fish during the morning session. The Elizabeth City team drew a station which had only produced 29 fish Friday morning. Charlie Griffin, captain of Surf side Six. was still optimistic early Friday afternoon. "During the last hour, when the tide is low. we might pick up enough puppy drum to hold our lead." he said. The puppies never materialized, however, and that afternoon the Elizabeth City team added 101 points with 31 fish to win the tournament. Fishing locations are determined by lot. Among 60 sections .2 miles long are staked off between Kitty Hawk Pier and Jennette's Pier. Each team fishes a different section morning and afternoon for two days. Vou might think that local anglers have the advantage in such contests, but over the last 25 years. 11 out-of-state teams have won. A women's team, the North Carolina Sea Hags, won in 1965. Assigning stations by chance cancels out local knowledge almost to a 100 percent degree. At eight o'clock, the teams are on station, and they fish like fury until 11. The afternoon session begins at 1:30 and ends at four. Then there is fishing talk at the cocktail hour at the Carolinian Hotel. Open competition for individual anglers was held on Saturday morning. Prizes were awarded for best bluefish. flounder, sea mullet (kingfish). gray trout, speckled trout and channel bass. The largest fish of the individual tournament was a gray trout over 20 inches long caught by Thomas Hannan. In team competition. Randolph Duke caught a bluefish 38 inches long. "Sometimes I'd fly over and look down at the beach and see a pickup truck with redfish stacked in the back." Williams said.
