National Farm Safety
Week To Be Observed

COLLEGE STATION, Raleigh,
May 27.-National Farm Safety
Week will be observed again this
year during the week Of July %
to %.
while it is well to focus ma
tion-wide attention on the ire
mendous toll taken by accidents to
farm people, we must remember
that farm safety is an every day,
an-the-time matter and we must
remain constantly on the alert"
says David S. Weaver, in charge of
the Agricultural Engineering De-
partments'at State College.
He points out that farm accidents
caused the loss of about Is million
man-days last year and that this
was one of the greatest obstacles
to maximum food production.
With fewer experienced workers
on the farms and with machinery
a year older and still hard to re-
place, opportunities for serious
farm accidents are greater than
ever before.
North Carolina Joined in the
farm safety crusade last year and
will take part again this year. AL
ready tens of thousands of All
boys and girls have made a spe-
cial study of farm safety and have
outlined changes to be made on
their farms and in their homes for
greater safety.
Never grease, oil, unclog or ad-
just a machine that is in gear"
says Weaver, land don't wear
floppy clothing that can catch in
machinery" These two and dozens
of other don'ts' must be continu-
ally kept in mind on the farm.
Farmer Gored by Angry Bull''
and Failing Tree Kills we'll
known Farmer" are some of the
headlines that occur almost weekly
in the newspapers.

products are essential to the main
tenance of human health and eftl-
cheney, and the entire dairy indus
try, he said, are exerting every
possible means of producing the
maximum amounts Of these prod
ucts under tremendous handicaps
of manpower, equipment and re-
pair parts shortages.
'There is great need Cherry

DAIRY DEMANDS
REPORTED HEAVY

RALEIGH, May 27.-(R)-Unpre-
eedented demands for dairy proc
urts both from Government ana
civilian sources have placed a Ter
rife burden on the American
dairy industry, Agriculture COM
missioner Kerr Scott said today.
In connection with the ninth an
NAL observance of Dairy Month
beginning June 1, Scott SAID, II
is time for full understanding
of the terrific problems faced by
the dairy industry if it is to DE,
liver its war orders in full ana
carry IN in it's future service TO
the nation
Scott said the Number One PROB
lem of the industry is manpoWer
an farms and in dairy plants. one
man of every six normally IN the
dairy business is missing, he salo'
and demands for greater proouc-
ton of milk, butter, cheese, ice
cream. and other products Is
mounting.
eve are now in the middle OF the
greatest year, from a production
standpoint, in history" he salo'
"and we are faced with what might
he called a labor famine.
Government buying OF DAIRY
products has skyrocketed to take
more than seven times the amount
Of the food dollar spent for SIM.
lar products in World War l..
Scott said, adding the government
xnends 1876 cents of every food
dollar for dairy products whereas
onlv two cents were so spent IN
World War I.
Scott emphasized the Importance:
of dairy products in the diet OF
fighting men. In 1943, he SAID, gov
eminent dairy products purchases
amounted to 1875 per cent OF the
total production. In 1914, he sald'
the percentage probably was great
er. "For the past four war years
We have been producing milk at
the rate of 6.5 billion quarts a year
more than we produced in the years
1935-1939. And still we cant keep
I'D with the demands, he said.

Cotton Fiber Becomes
More Helpful To South

COLLEGE STATION, Raleigh.
May 27.-Quality of cotton fiber is
becoming more important than
ever before in the history of the
South, says DR.. J. H. Moore, cot
ton technologist of the Agricultural
Experiment station at State college.
The lack of foreign demand, COM
petition from artificial fibers, and
the surplus of cotton on hand, even
though much of it is of low quality,
are the chief factors which call for
the production of cotton of better
quality.
Cotton quality is chiefly determin-
ed by grade and staple length; di.
ameter, strength, and wall thick
ness Of the fibers; and the unifor-
nifty of the physical fiber proper
ties, DR.. Moore explains.
On the other hand, the research
workers Of the Experiment Station
have come to realize that all OF
these factors are in turn dependent
upon the varieties or strains Of cot
ton grown and upon the conditions
under which the cotton grows, in
Guiding seasons, locations, fertiliz.
ers, rotations, and picking and gin
ming methods.

Replanting Of Cotton
Increases Boil Weevil.

COLLEGE STATION, Raleigh,
Nav 27.-Replanting of cotton be-
cause of a loss Of stand in early
April will Increase the OPP
nartunities for boil weevl dam
soe this year, says ]. Myron Max
we'll in charge of Extension en-
tomology at State College.
Of course, the actual damage
that will be suffered depends on
number of factors, he explains.
while the number of weevils COM
ing out of winter quarters are ex-
ceptionally large. no one knows
at this time just when they will
all come into the fields because
this varies from year to year.
Some years the majority of the
weevils come into the fields ahead
of the squaring of the cotton, while
in other years they wait until the
cotton is squaring before they
leave their winter quarters in
trash and woods around the fields.
Maxwell suggests that growers
keep a sharp watch on the cotton
near the winter quarters of the
weevil and be prepared to fight
the pest before he gets a good
start in the crop.
Much will depend on the amount
of rainfall in June as to just how
fast the weevil infestation will de-
velop this year. A wet period will
favor weevil development while
dry period will greatly help to
hold down the infestation.
Some farmers argue, IF it's
dry, I will make a big crop of
cotton but, if it's wet, can't do
anything about it." Maxwell says
that busting with calcium arsenate
is a paying proposition in those
years when the boil weevil. really
threatens and that being ready for
the fight is good crop insurance.

The rural neighborhood is tn e
smallest unit of our social organi-
cation. Right now, however, it
looms large in the consideration
of the Agricultural Extension Serv-
ice because the neighborhood may
be used to bring into existence the
best in rural living. The neighbour
hood is less than a community or
the township. 1t is simply h
small group of people who have
their homes around some central
thing. This central focus might be
a country store. a country school,
country filling station, small
church, or a plantation center 1t
has been found that when COM
munity meetings were held in the
past there were too many people
present who were not well acquaint-
ed with each other. So an effort
was made to find the limits of the
rural area in which neighbors
could work well together. F m
the central focal point. + a m
homes were visited, and, when the
people of these homes began to
go in the other direction then the
boundaries of the neighborhood be-
gan to be established. Going down
the roads or highways in every di-
rection from central place, it
was easy to map local neighbor-
hood. Such neighborhoods have
been outlined all over North Caro-
lima.
In most counties, a splendid or
ganization Of neighborhood leaders
has been perfected. These ar e
men and women who have been
selected by their neighbors to car
ry on the educational work affect
ing the local people. Through their
county home and farm agents they
get educational material pertain
ing to important farm movements,
and pass this on to the people of
the neighborhood. In return tn e
people tell their leaders of their
needs and this is sent back Up
the line until it reaches the agri-
cultural authorities of the state and
nation. It's very good arrange
ment and it works.
It works especially well in Bla-
den County where Mrs. Lille L..
Hester has been home agent o r
so many years that she could well
be called a veteran. She and the
farm agent, R. B. Harper, are do
| ing excellent work, in that county.
Mrs. Hester says that one reason
why the work in the rural home
has been so outstanding is because
she has the aid of the women neigh
borhood leaders in addition to the
fine leadership supplied by h r
home demonstration clubs. She al
