,:.octor Of Soil Research
laboratory Addresses Bet
ter Business Club

1rn1ess some abnormal devel-
,on+ is experienced such as
W ;ab+ be occasioned by govern
l,a on+a1 activity, it would appear
u u,.+ Wilmington might expect to
w., i+s best assets in the poten-
49,, resources of the surrounding
'.do area" DR.. L. G. Willis, di-
.octor of the soil research labora-
.orv here, told members of the
Better Business club at meeting
+be Tide Water assembly hall
Monday night.
IN pointing out ways to develop
+,e agricultural productivity and
.oso,,rces of this section, DR.. Will
IL. nsed movie slides to show how
aoiI ~, conditions can be corrected
for the best advantage.
He outlined the work as being
done bv the soil research 1abora-
m torv. through the use of chemicals
n build up the land.
THE city of Wilmington h a S
many advantages, but from a
strict business viewpoint, it also
has many handicaps," he i d,
THE sea on one side reduces its
trade territory, but offers some
compensation by attracting vaca-
tionists and providing for seaborne
commerce.
Experience in other localities
leads 10 an opinion that Whining
Inn will have to make a much
greater investment before it can
attract lucrative tourist trade.
There is, however, prospect of
using the resort as an attra ctlon
for visitors from neighboring coun-
ties if the income of the area can
be built up.
This income becomes most ef-
tective in raising the financial sta
tlls of the community when it is
generally distributed among indivi-
duals and throughout the yea ar.
Emphasis has been given to the
need for diversification of agricul-
ture as a step in this direction,
but experience in the solution of
soil fertility problems brings a rea-
lization of the difficulties faced in
accomplished this end
DR.. Willis pointed out that the
soils in this trade area are not
naturally productive and in many
cases are poorly drained.
1t is in correcting some of these
problems that the soil research
laboratory is most concerned, he
said, in pointing out ways and
means of doing the work of rails
ing the fertility of the soil.
"a realization of the scarcity of
knowledge pertaining to the soil
problems of this area was the bas-
is for the establishment of the soil
research laboratory" DR.. Willis
said.
He urged that the business in
terestS Of Wilmington familiarize
themselves with the work of the
laboratory 'as a means of pro-
noting one of its best assets"
At the conclusion of the address,
members of the Better Business
club voted to assist the depart
ment in all ways possible. 4
