IN MEMORY OF BILLY BIGGS
Who Passed away Dec. 30, 1942
Softly the stars are shining
Upon a precious grave.
Where sleepeth without dreaming
One we loved but could not save.
Three sad and lonely years
Have passed singe our sorrow fell.
The shock that we received that
day
We still remember well.
In thoughts we see his smiling
face 1"
Just as we did the day we saw him
last
It is so sad to live without him
In this lonely world below.
Sad and sudden was the call
Os one so dearly loved by all
Your memory is as sweet today
As in the hours you went away.
But Heaven holds our treasure,
God needed you, we know
Your sunny smile and happy face
Will brighten Heaven so.
We often sit and think o-f you
And think of how you died.
And that you could not say
Good bye before you closed your
eyes.
Mrs. Horace Riddle, Aunt of
Billy Biggs

EXHIBITS SHOW WIDE f
VARIETY OF 4-H WORK
•
Exhibits of the vareid
4-H activities by North'
Carolina boys and girls'
have been made at 4-Hj
Achievement? Day Exercis
es in counties throughout
the state during the fall ,
months.
Mothers and fathers have
attended these annual
round-up meetings along
with their children and
they have been given a
picture of the most out
standing activities engaged
in by the 4-H members.
In Chowan county, ( for
erample, the girls exhibit
ed biscuit, cakes, pies, can
ned foods, dresses, aprons,
needle work, and other ar
ticles, while the boys ex
hibited corn, peanuts, to ;
bacco, sweet potatoes, an( j
chickens. At some achieve-’
merit day exercises dairy)
and beef cattle, asd hogs;
| have also been exhibited. !
Completed record books, 1
giving full information as
to the methods used in
carrying out the 4-H acti-J
vities and the cost of pro-j
duction, play a big part in!
determining the winners of
the various projects.
L. R. Harrill, Club Lead
er at State College, says
that the record books sup
plied by the Extension Ser
vice fill a very definite
need in conducting 4-H ac
tivities and that those boys
and girls who keep the re
cords accurately and fully
receive excellent training
in farm accounting and!
management.
Special features are also
a part of the Achievement
Day exercises. In Chowan,
for example, Richard Leigh
of the Edenton Senior 4-H,
Club won a prize for a de
monstration in sharpening
axe s and hoes, according
to Virginia Bailey, assist
ant home agent, who re
ported the event.

reages were smaller than
in 1944 were those where
plantings were reduced by
unusual difficulties at
; planting and setting time.
! Approximately 57 per cent
;of the production was flue
i cured and 31 per cent was
. light air-cured. Fire-cured,
dark air-cured and all cig
ar classes accounted for
only-about 12 per cent.
This distribution of produc
tion tobacco
' classes will provide rela
tively more tobacco for
cigarette makers than for
other manufacturers.
.The Burley crop met
some serious obstacles in
the early season. Blue mold
was severe in many plant
beds, and cold weather in
the spring retarded pro-;
gress. Dry weather follow- j
ed and became acute in)
Kentucky, but rains fell in
time to bring about sub
stantial recovery in most
localities. The present es
timated production —603,-
.000,000 pounds exceeds
last year’s record output
by about 2 per cent and the
1934-43 average by 84 per
cent. The increase in pro
duction over last year was
brought about entirely by
increase in acreage. The
average 1945 yield per acre
for all Burley tobacco is
1,135 pounds per acre, com
pared with 1,182 pounds
per acre in 1944.
Fanners are advised to
start plans for chick rais
ing in January.
