State University, Raleigh. The farm management special ists point out that corporate farming is on the increase in the United States and North Caro lina. In 1942, for exaimple, there were 52 fann corporationsin in North Carolina. There were 159 in 1960. The specialists say there are several reasons for the increase. One reason is the large amount of capital that is necnled for ef ficient farming today. Changes in income tax laws is another reason. Still another reason Is the desire of farm owners to make sure that their farm busi ness continues after their death. While there is a tiend toward more corporate farming, this doesn’t mean that incorporating is recomiTiended fo revery farm er. The free N. C. State publica- tioi-n should help farmers to de cide where the practice would bo profitable and where it would not be.

"Yet. some farmers are willing to run the risk of an unprofitable harvest by selecting s<hk1 of unknown quality in order to save a few dollars on setd cost."
