TIMBER GROWING
MAY BRIDGE GAP

COLLEGE STATION, Raleigh,
Feb. 3.-Timber growing was sug-
gested today as holding definite
significance in the solution of the
cotton and "cash'' crop adjust
ment problem in North Carolina
and the south.
r. w. Graeber, Extension Ser
vice forester at State College, de-
clared that the number of persons
now employed on small cotton
farms will decrease materially in
the next few years as postwar
farming becomes mechanical to
increase efficiency and meet the
stiff competition of domestic
synthetics and foreign products. In
order to provide employment for
the farm workers whose labor will
Ultimately be replaced by machin-
cry, new crops such as timber
must be grown. New emphasis tor
cattle, perennial hay, forage crops
and small grains also was suggest
ed to better balance the states
farm economy.
The proposed establishment of a
newsprint mill in a southern state
by southern publishers, Graeber
said, is one If many new ano

planted last year. This will not
be materially increased or de-
creased in the coming year al
though it has brought good prices
and the farmers who planted have
made good money from their to-
bacco. This was kept up by the
control and without the control We
can expect the prices to 60 low
again and with an over 'produc-
ton Of tobacco.
Poultry Mart Need
We do not have as much poultry
in the country today as the people
of Wilmington normally consume.
One reason for this is that we
have regulations for control Of sell
ing without the means for carry
ing these regulations out. There
should be a plant in town where
this poultry can be brought to be
properly killed and dressed for the
retail grocers to take and sell SO
they will not have to have poultry
shipped in from long distances.
The outlook for this is bright. Eggs
are normally shipped in here ex-
cept for month or two in the
spring when a few are shipped
out. There should be a place here
for grading eggs and breaking the
checks and dirties.
This is the outlook for the far
mers of this county which as a
whole is not bright but it does not
mean that with the change Of con-
ditions and with help from the peo-
pie of Wilmington that it could not
be improved. There should be bet
ter working understanding be-
tween the business men and wom-
en- in the city and the farmers in
the country.

ootDiseases May End
Life OF Peach Orchards

Why are peach trees relatively
short-lived in orchards on soil:
such as those of the sandhill ares
of North Carolina? Why can't q
peach orchard be successfully es'
tablished on ex-orchard -ano
there? Those two questions have
plagued peach growers for years,
not only in North Carolina, but in
other states as well.
In discussing the problem, Or.
c. N. Clayton. associate plant
Pathologist the N. c. agricul-
.ural Experiment Station, points
an, that this early death OF peach
,-ses in the sandhill area has re-
sul.ed in thousands of acres OF ex-
a-ehsrd land that so far haven't
been replsnted successfully. In
ma.v orchards, he says, the
stands are so irregular that the
Yields per acre have been greatly
reduced.
Experimental workers and orchar-
dists have worked to determine
the causes Of the early death OF
peach trees and in spite OF the
fact that many years ago they
recognized root diseases as OF ma
jor Importance, the problems be-
cause of their completely and long
time nature are far from being
solved.
Examination of the underground
and above ground portions OF hun
dreds of trees in many different
orchards shows that there are sew
eral factors operating singly or in
combination involved in the death
Of peach trees.
Although parasitic root diseases
have been pretty definitely estab-
lished as active agents in the death
of trees in well-cared for orchards
as well as those that are not, other
factors tend to contribute to the
injury. Factors such as drought,
early defoliation, or improper nu-
triton tend to make the trees more
susceptible to damage from Win
ter injury and parasitic diseases.
Armillaria Root Rot
The three most prevalent and
destructive root diseases are Ar
millaria root rot, crown gall, and
root-knot. The first disease is caus-
ed by a toadstool-forming fungus
that also parasitizes many types
of fruit and forest trees, especially
oak. The fungus survives on pieces
of infected wood. For example,
long after the tree top is gone,
the fungus remains alive in the
dead roots ready to infect healthy
roots of peach trees when they
come in contact with it.
Crown gall, a bacterial disease,
lis often brought into the orchard
on nursery stock. However, the
crown gall organism is already
present in many soils, being able
to live on the roots of most fruit
plants.
Root knot, caused by a minute
eelworm or nematode, affects
many types of plants. Besides
peach and related fruit crops,
many vegetable, flower, and field
crops are also very susceptible to
the rootknot nematode.
AL three of the diseases do not
necessarily occur in every or.
chard. However, trees in some or.
chards are infected with all three
diseases and in almost all or.
chards one or more Of the diseases
is present. In 0 orchards in which
a limited number of trees were
removed and examined this past
fall root rot was found in every
one, crown gall in Is orchards, anc
root not in IA.

Carolina Farm, Comment
By F. b. JETER

The movement for more fruit Tor
tbe farm home is gaining steady
momentum over the state. H. G.
Scott writes that the Al club
members Of Edgecombe County
are getting up their second cooper
alive order for fruit trees this WIN
ter and, this time, they are order
ing apples. peaches, pears, cher
ries, pluns, apricots, pecans, and
grapes. That means that the folks
in Edgecombe plan to use some
of the vacant land about the farm
stead to have supply of health
full food which can be grown with
out constant attention. In the
Edgecombe orders, the varieties Of
peaches and apples are being SO
divided as to have a few trees
ripening In succession through the
season so as to have constant
supply. All the orders will be COM
pleted by February 10 and the
trees set before the sap starts ris-
ing in the spring.
Dewitt Kornegay, now a young
medical studen. and once. a All
club boy Of the Seven Springs Club
in Wayne County, is still getting
results from cedar trees that he
planted years ago as club men,
Der. He completed his fourth sea-
son Of marketing Christmas trees
this past December when he sold
408 trees for $461 .04. During the
four years Of selling these young
cedar trees, Dewitt has sold ST.
814.33 worth. His original invest
ment was the small SUM of 81 for
which he bought 1000 Seeding
trees that he planted on one and
four-tenths acre plot. c. S. Mintz,
farm agent in Wayne, says the in
come from the trees since that
time has been one reason why De-
witt could continue his studies to
become a doctor of medicine.
Tree-setting seems to be a con-
tagious thing. W. H. Evans Of the
Christian Harbor Section of Hert-
ford county is setting pine seed
lings on three acres of his land
and says he will cover seven more
acres with kudzu to prevent ero-
sion on some land that is not now
being seeded to row crops. In other
words, North Carolina farmers are
finding that trees of all kinds are
valuable and that there is no need
to- allow waste land to wash away
when either trees, kudzu or pas
ture sods will held the soil and al
low it to be used for a useful and
profitable purpose.
John Holden of Franklin County
is another person who thinks well
of having a fruit orchard on his
farm. John is in the army but he
is looking to the future. When he
had his furlough at Christmas, he
spent most Of the time pruning
and spraying his one-acre apple
orchard now just coming into pro-
duction. He said it was all right
to have a good time while he was
at home but he felt that his or
chard will mean something to him
when he finally gets out of the
service. He looks for no returns
from his spraying in 1916 but II
he. can keep his trees in first-class
shape, the acre of apple trees will
mean something some day and
John is looking forward to that
day. ~,
Pasquotank cabbage growers al
so have been experimenting this
season to find out which varieties
The Wilmington morning star., 1946-02-04

, can be used IN that county "
tend the marketing season over a
longer period. The growers say !.
is an right to grow a crop OF
cabbage, sell them all when they
are mature, and pocket the prof
its, if any. But they have found
that by using different varieties,
they can staggers the marketlr
season, so to speak, and have CAP
baee for sale over a longer period.
The Round Dutch is the most pop
ular variety now being grown by
Pasouotank truckers and has prov
ed to be the most profitable. The
new Holinders variety is also a
good producer and comes along
later than the Round Dutch. This
permits the extended marketing
period desired and better use Of
labor during the, present shortage.
It also prevents flooding the mar.
ket. =
AS result OF their experiments,
therefore, Pasquotank growers
have decided to use the Round
Dutch, the Flat Dutch. and the
Ho1inders varieties, in the order
named, and they believe this will
be profitable to. them in several
ways. -,..... -. .--.---
They say, too, that they have
found it profitable to provide their
livestock with good shelter a d
plenty of warm bedding and good
feed during these past snowy and
sleety days. It pays to treat the
livestock kindly and to keep it well
watered, well fed and comfortable.
Some new methods of livestock
management have been started as
result Of this bad weather and
that is extremely fortunate for the
stock. .--
When it comes to profitable
items, E. H. Baker of the Glendale
Springs Community in Ashe Coun-
ty says nothing beats field OF
well cultivated Snapbeans. Mr.. Ba-
ker sold $1,94O worth of the
beans from a field of IL acres
last season. He kept an accurate
yield record on one acre and pro-
duced 419 bushels that brought him
1874. He used 600 pounds Of a
SIS fertilizer and 100 pounds OF
nitrate. of soda Under the. beans at
planting time, and then made
side applicati a of 800 pounds. OF
the SIS fertilizer with 100 pounds
of, nitrate of soda. He used the
Tendergren variety, planted on
May 10, and he picked the field
three times. The entire first. pick
ing graded U. S.. No. 1 on the
auction market at West Jefferson.
We get many calls about how to

new farm homes or to repair or
