Sale Of Wheal To Russia
HARDY D. BERRY
The sak of wheel to Russia
underscores the success of the
entire American agricultural
complex, including such pro
grams as NorthCarollna's fam
ed "Nickels for Know-How"
program. Dr. H. Brooks James,
an agricultural economist and
dean of agriculture at North
Carolina State, declared here
today.
An analysis of the reasons
for the comparative success of
American agriculture and the
failures of Russian agriculture
reaches far beyond the com
parative richness and availa
bility of highly productive agri
cultural lands. James said.
U.S. agricultural scientists
have been aware of "built in"
factors for failure in the Rus
sian system for more than three
decades, the veteran State dean
said.
Self-styled critics of the Rus
sian and the American systems,
and even the highly regarded
analyses of political scientists
have bereft scratched the sur
face in this Important area
the dean emphasised.
The dean predicted that there
will be a lot more attention
paid to the agricultural differ
ences between the systems now
that the "wheat deal" has ach
ieved such world-wide promin
ence.
Because of the relationship
. of the land-gram college to the
agricultural success story. -
"Cow college" should now be
a chapter in event text of com
parative political science, the
dean declared.
The shallow criticisms of
farm policies that have been
worked out in the economic
political arena which frame U.S.
farm policy and which aim at
the stability of American agri
culture, must now be revised
the dean added.
In defining the factors that
are the essential elements of
what he calls the American
agricultural system, the dean
lists such factors as;
1. A basic free enterprise
on American farms buttressed
by a national agricultural poli
cy system underwriting a rela
tive stability in American agri
culture.
2. The 100-year-old-land?
gram college system with its
component agricultural experi
ment station research and ex
tension information systems.
3. The cooperative, "decen
' trail zed" philosophy which per
mils the experiment stations
and extension programs to ad
apt themselves state-by state ?
to their own situations.
4. The democratic "class
less" society of the U.S. which
has permitted the agricultural
occupation to rise to a pro
fessional status, paralleled by
the development of agricultural
education as a university-level
program.
5. The mutual respect and
faith that agricultural scientists
have with farm operators and
that farm operators have in
their county agent, the land
grant college, and theU.S.D.A.;
and the fact that these are in
terlocked with joint advisory
committees in every area of
agricultural and scientific life.
Dr. James pointed to the
"Nickels for Know-How" pro
gram in North Carolina as one
of the outstanding examples of
the faith of American farmers
in this agriculture complex.
Though it has its counter
part systems in other states.
North Carolina's "Nickels for
Know-How" program is great
ly envied by other agricultural
areas of tne country. The -
"Nickels" program is a fin
ancial support program outside
the regular area of tax-support
that provides financing for re
search, extension, and edu
cation programs in agriculture.
It is financed by a five-cent
contribution by farmers on

Egg Conference To Be
Held At State College
The 1903 Egg Industry Con
ference will start Monday af
ternoon, November 11, at 1:00
p.m. and run to noon Tuesday

Dehydrated
Steak
If Dr. Maurice W. Hoovers
deductions are correct, you
might one day walk into a su
permarket and buy a dehudra
ted steak?done medium rare,
if that's your choice.
You'll take the steak home
and drop It into a pot of cold
water. After the meat has so
aked up enough water , you'll
pop it into the over to heat
it up. Unless you are the most
discerning of connoiseurs, you
might not be able to tell that
it was cooked two years before.
Dr. Hoover is a member of
N.C. State's new Department
of Food Science, in charge of
dehydration research. By late
December, he should be ready
to launch a research program
involving a remarkable new -
method of food processing. It's
called freeze drying.
The technique itself is not
new. It has been used for years
in biology, medicine and?
pharmacy. It has proven to be
an excellent means of pres
erving blood plasma, skin, bone
tissue, and the like. Only re
cently have food industry peo
ple come to realize the ad
vantages freeze drying offers
in the food field. It offers pro
mise for new Industry in North
Carolina. It offers promise for
new industry in North Carolina.
It offers the farmer another out
let for his products.
Food to be freeze-dried is
first cooked, and then quickly
frozen, it is placed in a vac
umn chamber, where most of the
moisture is removed. The end
product is a dried food-not a
frozen food. In an airtight con
tainer , it can be stored for up
to two years?at room tempera
ture! Drop die food into water,
and it resumes its original
ready to eat, once vou warm it
up. Food prepared (n this man
ner retains most of its orig
inal flavor.
There are disadvantages too,
but Dr.. Hoover thinks mey can
be erased by research. The
freeze drying process is too
slow now, and hence is rather
expensive. Dr. Hoover would
also like to speed up the re
hydration process, by which the
dried product is restored to
its original weight and form.
Keep your eyes on this one.
The promise is there. And Dr.
Hoover wants to make it pay
off for North Carolina.
ternoon will cover topics on
egg facts inplant egg wash
ing growing versus buying
started pullets, colony cages
laryngotracheitis, coccidiosis
egg story, and a 4-H demon
stration on eggs. On Tuesday
morning, the program will fea
ture topics on the family type
Doultrv farm, feeding hatching
egg hens, mixing feed, leucos
is poultry research and sales
philosophy. Also, a thirty minu
te movie will be shown en
titled, "The Wilkes Story".
There will be a question and
answer period following each
session.
Every poultry man and all
workers engaged in the egg
industry in Duplin County should
attend this 1963 Egg industry
Conference, becauseu will pro
vide the latest information on
the production and marketing
of quality eggs. Also, it will
provide everyone in or con
nected with the egg industry
to discuss problems of mutual
interest.
Civil
Defense
The responsibilities of Civil
Defense in a natural disaster
and man-made disasters are
gi ven as follows under sec
tion (a) and (b):
(a) During a natural disas
ter Civil Daense as a recogi
zed govermental agency is re
sponsible for the coordination of
all groups, both public and pri
vate, participating in a natural
disaster relief operation. The
functions carriedout by these
groups include;
(1) Protection of persons and
property including: (a) main
tence of law ana order; (b)
fire protection; (c) designation
of hazardous buildings; (d) pub
lic health sanitation; (e) care
of the dead; (f) traffic control.
(2) Maintaining usual com
munity services including: (a)
public welfare; (b) schools and
other public institutions; (c)
sewage and water systems;
(d) streets, highways and brid
r; (e) removal of debris;
communication and trans
portation systems.
(3) Restoration of public
property which has been dam
aged or destroyed.
(4) Requests for assistance
to or from other agencies or
organizations outside of the
particular jurisdiction, except
requests between Red Cross
units.
Because of the lack of other
exsisting government agencies
primarily concerned with cer
tain disaster operations Civil
Defense, in addition to its co
ordination authority, has a more
direct operational responsibil
St in such matters as (1) war
ng; (2) evacuation; (3) res
cue.

responsibility for the develop
ment and execution of a plan
of Civil Defense for the pro
tection of life and property in
the United States. The plan
has been designated by the -
Congress to be a joint respon
sibility of the Federal Govern
ment . the several states, and
their polkicai subdivisions. Ac
cordingly, in the event of an
enemy-caused disaster, Civil
Defense:
(1) Is fully responsibly for
the direction of all phases of
the operations.
(2) Vill utilise all commun
ity agencies, including the Red
Cross, in carrying out this
responsibility.
(3) will assume financial re- ,
sporisibility for the Civil De
fense program which will be
executed In accordance with
then existing Civil Defense
policies and procedures.
All of the above services
can be provided only with your
help, if you do not do your
part, the assistance you could
receive In an emergency will
be much more limited.
Recent passage of the Fallout
Shelter Development Bill by the .
House of Representatives is a
tremendous step toward thede- 1
velopment of a nation-wide )
shelter system, State Civil De
fense Director Edward F. Grif
fin says.
"The bill authorizes expen
diture for the purpose of adding
shelter to these buildings ana
it also requires incorporation
of shelter in all federal struc
tures, military and civilian,
that now exist or are to be
constructed. Exemptions for
some government buildings will
be allowed by the law. Approxi
mately fifteen million dollars
is expected to be available for
the federal buildings shelter
program.'
The State Director pointed out
that many of the shelter spaces
would be added by improved
ventilation and with the minor
addition of shielding in shel
ters already located. Allocation
of shelter development funds to
the state under the new
program will be based on each
state's shelter needs.
For example, in North Caro
lina. 840.515 qualified shelter
spaces were found by the Na
tional Shelter Survey, leaving
a shelter gap of approximately
3 3/4 million spaces.
The Shelter Development Bill
must next be approved by the
Senate. Appropriation of rands
will be a separate action by
Congress.

The time for seeding ? cover
:rop has been extended by the
jounty committee fromOctober
II to November lO^The comity
is so many farmers have been
reluctant to sow their cover
ind seed their pastures due
:o the dry weather. This ex
ension also applies to those
vho have already had cover,
pasture or lime approved for
heir farms. ,
When approval for assistance /
Is given, a pink sheet is given I
or each practice oil whlcn as- f
tistance was approved. The - , I
sink sheet is to be completed
und signed by the farm opera
or as soon as the practice
is carried out. Then the sheet
should be returned to the coun
y office by the final report
ing date. A blue sheet is mail
ed as a reminder notice for
hose who have not completed I
heir practices.
If you have misplaced the
pink and blue sheets, the or
iginal (white) copy by com
ing to tne county office to sign
:he original. Completion of each /
practice must be reported so /
hat we can know which ones >1
rave been carried out. If a I
practice has been approved and
ou cannot car y it out, please I
let us know.
We hope that you will come I
:o the county office beforeNov
