But the kids are hard at work and will have the show ready for the opening on Thursday night, August the 37th. The Show will run two nights and will begin promptly at 8:15.

Spring measurements in Jo County had found the a« dealer’s Jones County tobac^ allocation of 190 j> acres to be “overplanted” by 4.8 acres which “overage” was promptly cut down. Raeford Blizzard of Tuckahoe Township had meas ured the variotti fields on Jhe „ __ 'one* Jones County. Spring, measurements in Le noir County found Jdnes to be "over” .4 acre on an allocation of 63.5 acres. Which “overage” was also promptly cut down. Thomas Elmore of Moss Hill measured the Jones holdings In Lenoir County. Much later in the tobacco growing season, after practically all of the crop had been housed, Jones County Production and Marketing Adminstratlon offi cials, working with State PMA officials made a re-check of the Jones acreage and found that the various farms were over to the tune of 30.3 acres, In suite of the 4.8 acres that had so promptly been dut down. On the heels of the Jones * t~on Jones’hole agreement between Jones County PMA, — average yield in that . was set at 1275 pounds acre which made a total of' . 33 pounds an which Jones must pay the mandatory 30 cent-per-pound penalty for a total Of $7,726.50. In Lenoir County the Jones’ farms apparently had bitter looking crops since a 1300-pound per acre yield was mutually agreeable which made a penalty of $2,106 to be paid on the Lenoir County coverage. In addition to paying this pen alty on the overplaatlngs on his Jones and Lenoir County farms Jones also loses the right to sell ANY of his tobacco to the Flue Cured Tobacco Stabilization Corporation which buys tobac co when it brings less than the parity price on the auction sales. In short, Jones’ total acreage this year of 292.4 acres will be sold without parity support. This is automatic since his actual al location was 254 acres and he was found to have 38.4 acres more' than he was supposed to have. in numbers of United has latches aF lhe Xerip rbon Camp' tsetwffi om the local 4m»ty OwfafepSKrOpaSiP «jtes Cooal* Wpt Farm g#J .winne^j^Q wiU takepart fpiwe
