MORE "MULE-POWER" FOR
NORTH CAROLINA FARMERS
North Carolina is at the crossroad* of a now era of
agricultural development. Mechanization has played
an important part, for the number of tractors on farms
has increased approximately ninety per cent in the
last five years! This advancement, coupled with More
efficient use of farm resources, point to higher snd
more stable farm incomes North Carolina continues
to move forward as a better place in which to work,
play and live.
Another fine example of North Carolina progress is
the steadily-improving standards of operation by malt
beverage retailers in "legal control" counties The
United States Brewers Foundation policy of cooperat
ing with such retailers, in maintaining orderly law>
abiding conditions for beer and ale sales, provides
an important contribution to the pleasant living that
is North Carolina.
