Serious Beef Shortage
Believed Near In u. S.

"a continuation Of present con:
ditions, unless speedily corrected
will mean that beef will become
a seasonal crop, in greater defree'
the council warned.
The council said corn belt farm
ers had reduced their buying OF
feeders because Uncertainty
created by government "regula-
tions and orders had them un-
willing to risk suffering severe
financial losses" Adoption of the
meat management plan, the coun-
Gil said, would restore "the con-
fidence of producers to a
point where they would be
willing to continue :. feeding cat
tle."
Under the meat management
plan, the council said, flexible
prices would result from effective
control of consumer demand,
through rationing'' and "meat
would be allowed to find it's own
price level"

GRAIN CROP AIDS
in FEED SUPPLY
Small Yield Sets Up Insur-
ance Against Failure
OF Corn Output

COLLEGE STATION, Raleigh,
Aug. 22.-State college tests show
that crops of small grains are
good insurances against a feed
shortage because rarely do corn
and small grain both fail the same
year, DR.. E. R. Collins, in charge
of agronony extension at State
college, announced here today.
He reported that small grains
are the best nurse crops for such
legumes as lespedeza and red
clover. This double cropping
makes maximum use of the land,
and the seeding Of lespedeza OF
red clover on the small grain
crop requires very little labor or
expense Collins said.
The agronomist pointed out that
small grains in the rotation utili-
zes labor and farm machinery to
good advantage. 'More land can
be tended and more feed can be
produced with the same amount of
labor by growing small grams
rather than corn," according to
Collins.
He said that small grains help
to control erosion. Nine-year re-
suits at Statesville showed that
nearly "a tons of fertile topsoil per
acre were saved by wheat and
lespedeza as compared with corr
on a sloping upland Piedmont soil.
He suggested that growers pre-
pare their soil properly for plant
ing, use an adequate amount Of
fertilizer at planting, and plant
at the right time. Many growers
fail to make a good crop of grain
because they plant too late in the
fall.

LIMESTONE PAYS
WITH LESPEDEZA
Use OF Mineral On Crops
Brings Good Yield In
Quality And Volume

COLLEGE STATION, Raleigh,
Aug. 22.-Farm Agent Earle Brinu-
nall reported to the State college
extension service here today that
growers in Catav-ba county have
found that it pays to use ground
limestone and phosphate on lespe-
deza.
Recently, J. A. Propst, farmer
Of the Maiden section, came into
the farm agents office with a re-
quest for additional quantities of
the two fertilizers.
Propst told farm agent Brint-
nall typical story; he had never
had much success growing lespe-
deza. ''It would never get more
than about this high" Propst said,
measuring with his hands about
five or six inches.
I'm the fall of 1941 I spread Sc
ven tons of ground limestone n
two and a half acres Of lespedeza
I'd soWn the previous spring." the
farmer said. And the next year he
cut twice as much lespedeza as
he ever had before.
II cut this same lespedeza in
the spring of 1943 with a disc and
spread 1000 pounds of phosphate
over it. There is now double the
amount of lespedeza on the ground
that I had in 1912. Some of it is
18 and 20 inches high" Propst
said.
Farm Agent Brintnall adds that
this experience is typical of the
attitude of farmers in CataWba
county. He says that since No
vember /, 1912, farmers have plac-
ed orders for more than 10000 tons
Of ground limestone and for nine
cars of superphosphate. in addi-
ton to the amounts ordered from
local dealers.
Not only are these materials
benetiting lespedeza crops, but
clovers, alfalfa and the row crop

SWEET POTATO
CROP IS LARGE
Growers Should Ora d lie,
Cure And Store Food
For Winter Use

: COLLEGE STATION, Raleigh,
Aug. 22.-North Carolina grswers
will need to grade, cure, and
store their sweet potatoes this fall
because of the exceptionally large
crop, DR.. I. @. Schaub, director o1
the State college extension service,
announced here Saturday.
He said that farmers could af-
ford to do this because the support
price of the War Food Adrninistra-
tion is so cents per bushel higher
for the spring months of February
through April as compared with
the fall support price. his price
applies to U. S. No. l potatoes in
carload lots.
He called attention to what hap
pened last season when growers
sold their crop as low as 95 cents
per bushel in mid-November and
as high as So to 81 per bushel in
the spring.
UO Sd1o tlloI IL 1oI 1llO1S q
tempt to dump their potatoes
on the market this fall, market
glut will result and it is doubt
full if the price support can take
care of the situation. ''It may be
worse than with Irish potatoes, :"
Schaub commented.
He suggested that growers plan
now for using vacant store build
ings, tobacco barns, and other
buildings, which can be convert
ed into temporary storage plants.
He said that the Agricultural
Engineering department at State
college can assist growers in work
ing out their storage problems by
supplying blue prints for all types
of storage to accommodate from
200 to $4,000 bushels Of sweet pota-
toes.

Local Auction Markets
Have Phenomenal Rise

ducers, they are attracting grow
ers from radius of so miles.
1.-THE quality of the beans sold
on these markets is unusually
good, with a majority of them be-
ing graded U. S. number one.
''The average price the growers
have received for each bushel of
beans sold on the West Jfferson
market this season has been ap-
proximately $1.50 without the
hamper" asserted Gourlay.
While many of the beans move
directly to market and thus to the
consumer, around so per cent OF
the daily volume sold goes to
canneries in Georgia, Alabama,
the Carolinas, Tennessee, Mary
land and Virginia.
Gourlay related that one farm
er sold from his first picking Of
three acres $59.15 worth of beans
after the auction Of fee of five
cents per bushel had been deduct
ed; and the farmer was not re-
CURED to purchase hampers.
According to reports received
from the Ashe-Wautauga section,
a number of late paintings of snap
beans have been made and plans
are being laid to operate the auc-
ton markets until frost.
That the trade is interested in
the two markets is shown by the
fact that from five to 10 buyers
participate in the daily sales which
begin at 6 o'clock each evening
and continue until midnight.
Gourley has keen present at
West Jefferson each night since
sales began, making inspections of
the product at night and visiting
the fields during the day to give
growers advice on the proper time
to pick their beans in order to re-
ceive the best possible price. Gour-
lay was also authorized to make
purchases for the Foot Distribu-
ton Administration in the event
the price of the beans dropped be-
low S1.15 per bushel. However it
has not as yet been necessary for
the FDA to make any purchases.
The markets soon will begin the
sale OF potatoes and cabbage.

FARMERS WARNED
ON TIMBER SALES
Sellers Should Not Put
Price On Product Until
Volume Is Known

COLLEGE STATION, Raleigh,
Aug. 22.-When a farmer puts a
price on his timber without know
ing its volume, he often takes a
long shot in the dark, says r. W.
Graeber, extension forester at
State college.
According to Grseber, If a
farmer guesses low, the buyer
usually accepts. If he guesses high,
hn often kills a prospective sale.
There are cases in which the
farmer guesses low and a pros
pective buyer guesses still lower.
This is often the case in small
boundaries of good timber in thick
stands"
Graeber cites a report from
Mackay B. Bryan, farm forester
for Surry, Wilkes, and Yadkin
counties, who says: "A Yadkin
county farmer called me to help
him estimate and market small
block of second-growth pine tim
ber, approximately 8 IL acres,
along with small amount OF young
poplar.
IA few weeks earlier he had
offered all of this timber for sale
at a price of $1,000. The local buy
er told the farmer that he didn't
have as much timber as he thought
he had and that the price was too
high.
II persuaded the owner to hold
the young poplar for a few more
years, since there was only about
so board feet. The pine was to
be scaled and cut. After scaling
the pine timber, tree by tree, it
was found that the total was $4,000
board feet, which sold for 81 200
on the stump
Graeber reports that the extern
sion service, through the county
agents, the farm foresters, and
taa extension foresters. is giving

marketing problems.

The Tar
Heel
Gardener
By John H. Harris
NJ. c. State College

This fall, as never before, we
need to grow more root crops for
winter use. Instead of allowing
grass to. over-run the garden and
produce millions of seeds for next
year, we should plant such root
crops as fan potatoes, beets, car
rots, onions, Kohl-rabi, and tur-
nips. These root crops should be
supplemented, of course, by sew
eral kinds of leafy greens.
The most common and perhaps
the easiest grown of the root crops
is the turnip. Purple Top varieties
are good root producers while the
Seven Top variety produces mainly
leaves for salad. Turnip seed
should be sown in August or early
September. The seed may be
broadcast Or sown in rows, but in
either case the plants should be
thinned out to stand to 6 inches
apart. Fertilizer should be applied
at the rate of 10 to Is pounds
per 1000 square feet.
Where hard freezes do not oc-
cur, the turnip may be left in it's
original position in the soil until
consumed. In colder sections OF
the state, soil may be placed over
the turnip to protect it from light
freezes. In the upper Piedmont
and Mountain sections it is ad-
visable to dig the turnips and store
in dirt mounds, root cellars, or
some other place of storage where
the temperature will be cool and
the air moist.

rials of the markets division o.
the State Department of Agrirul
ture reported SATURDAY. that loca,
auction markets, which have hao
a phenomenal growth in eastern
North Carolina counties for the
past five years. are now being es-
tablished throughout the state.
Since last spring, markets have
been set up at Statesvil1e, Boone,
and West Jefferson.
Joe Gourlay, marketing special
ist with the department. declared
that snap bean producers, buyers
and dealers in Watauga and Ashe
counties, for instance, are "elat-
ed'' over the success of the mar
kets recently set up at West JEFF
ferson and Boone.
Since their ablishment, they
have done tremendous business
and have proved their WORTH" ac-
cording to Gourlay.
"They are the first markets of
their kind to be set up in that ses-
ton of the state" said the mark
eting specialist. He added that
there is Strong possibility that
others will be organized next year
IN other counties of the area.
Gourlay reported that "during
the past six weeks a chanting auc-
tioneer - the equal of any to be
heard on the radio or on the to.
bacco markets of eastern North
Carolina - has sold in West JET
ferson alone around 5000 bushels
OF good quality snap beans at
prices satisfactory to the grow
ers."
Virtually all the sales conducted
on these auction markets at Boone
and West Jefferson occur at night
and the beans are trucked away to
distant city markets before morn
ing, Gourley explained.

CHICAGO, Aug. %. - R - A
serious shortage of beef this COM
ing winter and spring was predict
ed today by the Livestock and
Meat Council unless the govern
ment puts into operation the prin-
ciples of meat management re-
commended by the livestock pro-
ducing and meat packing associa-
tions, said the shortage was devel-
oping because corn belt farmers
were not purchasing sufficient
young cattle for feeding on farms
and marketing later this year and
early next year.
Ordinarily cattle feeders in the
Midwest buy young range cattle
coming off grass, called feeders. -
These cattle are fed in corn belt
feed lots" on grain and rough
age for varying number of
months. ''It is by this method of
feeding that beef supplies are
spread over the year., the coun-
Gil said.
In the four largest markets of
the corn belt-Chicago, Kansas
City, st. Paul and Omaha feeder
cattle passing through the yards
during the two weeks ending Au-
gust 13 were At per cent fewer than
in 1912" the council said. and
"there is reason to believe that
of the sharply reduced numbers
of animals classified as feeders
n any actually did not 60 to feed
lots but rather to black market
operators."

Burke Guernsey Breeders
Planning Big Stock Show

MORGANTON, Aug. 22.-Burke
county Guernsey breeders are
making plans for their annual
countrywide Guernsey show on
September 30, reports Farm Agent
r. L. Sloan of the State college
extension service.
For the past twelve years the
Guernsey breeders of the county
have held yearly show designed
to stimulate the raising of more
efficient milk producers and a
better type of dairy cattle. It was
decided to continue the project
this year in spite Of the war.
W. W. Fitzpatrick, manager OF
the Quail Roost Farms, has been
invited to serve as Judge for the
show.
