Em>rqency Is Not Vet Met.

hrhi~i SS'Sy 20 wv Z III"
Notwithstanding the fact that the
campaign for an increased acreage in
and production of food and feedstuffs
has been pushed in every section of
North Carolina there is a distinct fear
yet that the emergency has not been
met and that many people in this state
are going to find themselves in a very
uncomfortable position during the
coming fall and winter.
I'VE know that the rorces working
in this campaign have gotten excel
lent results in practically every Sec
ton of the state" declared John Paul
Lucas, executive secretary of the
North Carolina Food Conservation
Commission, "but WI are not fooling
ourselves. We know that an increas-
and feed crops already and that the
planting season is not yet past. But
we also know hat it is hard for our
people to appreciate just how much
more we must produce than we ordi-
narily do to make up for what we
have been importing each year We
know that we have not yet in sight,
either already seeded or under prepa-
ration for planting, a sufficierI addi-
tlonal acreage to anything like make
up the deficit that will be caused by
the withdrawal for military purposes
of the huge amount of food and feed
supplies we have been importing from
the West and other sections
II believe that our farmers, as a
general thing, are going to do their
have many opportunities of observing
this. They are rallying nobly. From
almost every county we have reports
of farmers who realize that in this
fight to the death the farmer occupies
q strategic position and are acting &C
cordingly. One farmer in Moore coun.
ty had 100 acres of land prepared for
cotton. Ninety acres of that land was
planted in corn instead. An Edge
combe county farmer seized u acres
pared for cotton and planted it for his
tenant in corn. We have urged a
reasonable reduction in the tobacco
and cotton acreage and have secured
some reduction, but we must look
mostly to the extra acres that will be
cultivated and to the increased produc-
ton per acre as a result of good til
'age methods and heavier fertilization
for the greatest results"

Save the Hoas from Cholera.

Write to the state department of
agriculture for a bulletin on hog chol-
era symptoms and the control of the
disease by means Of the hog cholera
serum. In this time of high prices
of meat and the certainty that these
prices will continue or even increase
later in the fall no one should lose a
single hog. Hog cholera is n of
the most deadly and costly animal
diseases with which the farmer has to
contend and he should lose no oppor-
tunity of acquainting himself with the
methods of its control.

Test Farm Crops Are Fine.

Commissioner W. A. Graham. Of the
department of agriculture, returned
from a visit to the state test farm in
the black lands of Hyde county, and
says that he found crop conditions in
hat section the finest he ever saw
anywhere. He saw two huge fields OF
Irish potatoes of $50 acres each,
nearly ready to dig. The potato crop
all through that section is fine. The
cultivation of these black drained
lands, he says, is marvellous in many
respects. He found men who had
paid $40 per acre for these lands,
cleaned them out and put them in cul-
tivation by planting corn with sticks
in unbroken lands and raised a crop
that paid for the land the first year.
