Carryover Tobacco Receiving Date Nov. 1 November 1 has been set by Stabilization Corporation to receive growers' carryover tobacco in South Carolina and the Border Belt of North Carolina, according to Fred G. Bond, general manager. 1 Carryover tobacco is tobacco in excess of 110% of the 1982 quota and would be subject to penalty if sold in 1982. Growers should call the following delivery points beginning October 27 to schedule their deliveries: DO NOT CALL BEFORE OCTOBER 27. --T.S. RAGSDALE COM PANY, LAKE CITY, S.C. - (215 S. I PLANT-BED PREPARATION A few farmers have already begun to prepare plant bed sites for their 1983 tobacco. Most growers prefer to apply the plant-bed fertilizer before treating with methyl bromide. Apply no more than 50 lbs. of 12-6-6 tobacco plant bed fertilizer per 100 square yards and mix this into the top 2-3 inches of soil. This is equivalent to 2400 pounds per acre of this fertilizer. Rates higher than 50 lbs. of J 2-6-6 per 100 square yards may cause fertilizer injury and reduce plant stand, particularly on dry, candy soils when irrigation is not available. If extra nitrogen is deeded later because of leaching on sandy soils, 3-5 lbs. of nitrate of ^soda (16-0-0) topdressed per 100 sq. yards usually will be sufficient, i Fumigation of beds with methyl bromide should be done when the fsoil moisture is good for cultivation ' and the air temperature is at least 55?F. These soil and temperature conditions are more likely to occur in the fall than winter^ Methyl Church Street) -- TELEPHONE (803) 394-8567. -MULUNS LEAF TOBACCO COMPANY, MULLINS, S.C. - (118 Cypres* Street) -- TELE PHONE (803) 464-7711.

Schedule the delivery by telephoning Stabilization'* rep re Farm Focus by Richard Mellon Kxtension livestock Agent Banks Wannamaker Kxtension Field Crops Agent bromide, when properly used, will usuaiiy give excellent control of weeds, nematodes, and most other soil diseases. FALL LEAVES Why do green leaves turn red, orange and yellow during the fall? This outdoor art show results from a combination of chemical changes within the leaf due to ccriain weather conditions. By early Sep tember there are three (3) less hours of daylight than in sum mer. The sun's warming rays, now striking the leaves at a different angle, arc refltcted rather than absorbed. This causes the gretn pigment to break down, the yellow pigments to become apparent and ihe formation of the red pigments to begin . A warm dry August, ample early September rains, bright sunny days in late September and early Oc tober, cool crisp but not freezing night-time temperatures are ideal conditions foi producing vivid bright colors in autumn leaves. tentative at one of the designated points, beginning October 27, be tween the boon of 9>00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. 4.

Hoke ASCS Just recently the local ASCS Office mailed nominating petitions to all known eligible voters for the upcoming 1983 ASC Community Committee Election. Earlier this year ASCS officials had announced that the multi-community com mittee structure would be elimi nated in favor of a single com munity election process. This decision has been reversed permitting the continued use of multi ? community committees. With increased uncertainty regard ing the future of farming it is definitely more desirable to main tain a structure which has prrven successful in the past. Persons receiving petitions are urged to nominate the candidate of theii choice to appear on inc callot for the community in ?vhich they live. Nominating petitions must be returned to the ASC Office no later than November 1, 1982. Of those petitions received a ballot for each community will be structured and mailed to voters on November 26, 1982. Ballots must also be casted and received in the ASC Office by December 6th. On December 13th ballots will be counted by the county committee to determine committee members for each community for 1983. In turn those newly elected community committeemen will hold a county convention and serve as delegates to elect a farmer to serve on the county committee. This convention will be in.
