Labor Shortage
Plagues Farmers
A six-point program to help
farmers beat the labor shortage
was suggested this week by spe
cialists of the State College Ag
ricultural Extension Service.
The specialists pointed out that
the farm labor supply will not be
as plentiful in 1933 as In 1952.
since another 200,000 agricultural
workers will go Into industrial
employment and the armed ser
vices also will take their quota
of farm workers. Wages paid to
farm workers are up 5 to 10 per
cent over a year ago and will be
moderately higher in 1953 than in
1952.
The six suggestions made by
the specialists are: mechanize
production, balance crops and
livestock, use better production
methods, Increase size of busi
ness. simplify work procedure,
and Improve labor relations.
It will be particularly impor
tant that the available labor sup
ply be used as efficiently as pos
sible, the specialists add.
Other suggestions to farmers
for 1953.:
Reduce fertilizer costs, particu
larly. for nitrogen, by shifting to
higher analysis, lower cost per
unit mixtures.
Carefully determine your re
quirements of production sup
plies. Order early to. be sure they
are available when needed.
Buy power and machinery need
ed to farm efficiently. Use ma
chinery to Increase production
and to replace high-cost labor.
Check possibilities of buying re
conditioned equipment. Keep ma
chinery in good repair and under
cover in a machine shed when not
in use.
Steers finished oi? grass alone
are practical and profitable In
North Carolina, according to
State College specialists.

Folder Tells Abouf
Keeping Grain Clean
"Grain Is Food ? Keep It:
Clean!"' Is the title of a new fold
er Just published by the Agricul
tural Extension Service of N. C.
State College.
The folder gives farmers in
structions on how to keep their
stored grain clean and thus save
It from condemnation under the
food and drug laws of the Fed
eral government.
Efforts are now 'being directed
at raw grain by the Federal Food
and Drug Administration in its
campaign to clean up impure,
filthy, and adulterated feed
stufXs. Grain elevators and other
grain - handling concerns will
be the Immediate points of in
vestigation- Ultimately, how
ever, responsibility for clean
grain will fall on the producer,
in whose hands grain is more
easily subject to insect and ro
dent contamination, and where
prevention is more easily ac
complished say State College
specialists.
This means that sooner or la
ter the grain producer will have
to continue and increase steps to
protect his grain through uses
of insecticides, fumigants, and
rodentlcldes, the specialists
warn. Insect and rodent control
programs will be of major Im
portance In producing clean
I grain, they point out.
The folder can be obtained
from your local county agent by
title and number: Exfnsior.

Christmas Tiees Can
Be Pat to Many Uses
After New Yeai's
Ttaefre are a number of things
you can do with your Christmas
tree after New Year's besides
burning it.
If it is a flr, for instance, it can
be anchored in the back yard ?
perhaps in a corner cf the gar
den?and used ak a. bird feeder
the remainder of the winter.
Pieces of suet and little feed bag*
may be tied to the branches. A
I container of . water should be
placed beneath the tree and. kept
Ailed ' so the birds will have a
drink every day.
Or, cut off the branches and
place them, curved ends up. over
flower beds when the ground is ex
posed. An evergreen mulch helps
prevent the soli from heaving dur

ing alternate freezes and thaws.
Long branches may be built into
little lenn-tos to protect tender
shrubs from sun scald.
The needles of a Christmas tree
can be sprinkled beneath acid
loving plants such as laurel, an
dromeds. rhododendron and blue
berries.
If the needles on the tree are
still Arm. use the branches In an
outdoor windowbox. Moisten the
. soil in the box. Then push the cut
ends of the branches dov.fn to the
bottom and tamp the soil firm
around them. This will generally
give you greenery all winter.
If you must burn your Christ
mas tree, don't toss it into a fire
place. Cut off the branches and
burn them safely one by one.
And remember, a Christmas
tiee tossed into the street can be
come a fire hazard if playful chil
dren pick it up and make a bor
fire of it in a vacant lot.

AMERICA'S
TEXTILE LEADER!
Ever alnc* 1813, whan the first cotton mill
in the state wsi established, the textile in
dustry hat biased the trail for North Carolina's
industrial progress. In 1951 there were 1,047
textile mills with 230,000 workers and sales
totaling nearly 3 BILLION dollars! It is pro
gress like this that has made North Carolina
a better plaoe in which to work, play and live.
Another contributing factor to more pleasant
living for North Carolinians is the brewing
industry's self ?regulation program where
brewers, wholesalers and retailers? in coun
ties where malt beverage sales are permitted
under state control? cooperate to maintain
wholesome oonditlons for the legal sale of
beer and ale.

of Railroading I
. ^
There's good reason why the Southern Railway System
today probably has more new and modernized yards and
terminals than any other railroad in the corMry.
Our modem Diesel locomotives ? we soon will be 100%
Dieselued ? have been doing a record-breaking job of
hauling our freight cars between terminals. But that wasn't
enough. A new kind of railroading was needed in terminals,
too ? so that time gained out on the line wouldn't be lost
by cars "loafing" in old-fashioned yards.
That's why the Southern has been building new, ultra
modern "push-button" yards like the $10 million yard shown
above ? modernizing existing yards ? improving freight han
dling methods all along the line.
From this new kind of railroading is coming faster,
better-than-ever service to the growing Southland we serve.
