from approximately 10000 acres In
1910 to 1000 acres in 1945. With
the low income per acre and the
shortage Of labor, 1t Is expected
that this crop will be even smaller
in 1916.
More attention is being given to
increased yields of corn than at
any time in recent years. The
average yield OF the $4,000 acres
Of corn grown annually in Duplin
County is only about 20 to %
bushels. Result Demonstrations
conducted in the various sections
Of the county last year where i'm.
proved practices for growing corn
were used, the average yield was
53.1 bushels per acre. This same
type Of demonstration was con.
Quoted through North Carolina
with similar results, therefore, il
is not unreasonable to expect
average corn yields to increase by
at least so percent during the next
few years. Many corn growers are
beginning to realize that it is very
Improbable to produce corn a,
such low acreage yields. An in
tensive campaign is planned to as
sist cooperating farmers to double
their corn yields during the mex
5 years. Hybrid seed, increased
applications Of nitrogen, and early
shallow civilizations will be en-
couraged in order to accomplish
this goal. The adapted variety Of
Hybrid being developed in the
state is expected to play an i'm
portant part in the increased corr
yields.
Strawberries
Duplin County has been one o1
the leading strawberry producing
counties in North Carolina since
the beginning of the production o1
this crop. The acreage of this crop
has decreased considerable in re.
cent years principally because o1
labor to harvest the berries was
not available. At the present time
there is a trend toward more
acres of berries for harvest in the
spring Of 1947, farmers believing
that the labor situation should be
somewhat better by that time.
Other Crops
On the western side of the coun
ty along the Atlantic Coast Line
Railroad many truck crops are
grown including Irish potatoes,

BETTER SERVICE,
LOWER RATES

Under new agreement which
became effective January /, 1916,
between the nations leading fire
and marine insurance companies,
specific provisions are made for
prompt payment to policy holders
of a wide variety of insured losses
without waiting to determine which
policy or insurance company may
be finally liable for the whole or
major portion of the loss sustained.
The agreement in effect benefits
the vast majority of American fami-
lies by avoiding future uncertain
ties as to proper settlements in the
case of many normal risks, such
as those TO family possessions tenn
porarily away from the home premi-
SEES. Such items as laundry sent
out, clothing at the dry cleaners,
furniture or rugs away being reno
waited, or radios at the repair shop
have been the subjects of disputes
from time to time arising in the
adjustment and apportionment of
losses because of overlapping cover
age under two or more policies held
by the customer and the service
shop.
Few people are mindful of the
many changes taking place con-
stantly in the business of insurance.
Many of these changes are directed

absolute PITCH

The strangest and rarest of musi-
cal gifts is absolute pitch. The
+ existence of this faculty, has some
times been denied, but there is no
doubt that some people, including
few young children, do have it
according to Sonotone research lab
oratories.
Absolute pitch is the faculty of
being able to name the pitch of
any musical not without any sup
Elementary aid from key notes or
other musical cues. Maybe you
have heard it demonstrated over the
radio. Being somewhat mysterious,
it IS regarded with considerable
awe by musicians.
There is no doubt that genuine

any place any time is very rare.
One scientist studied 90 cases of
people who claimed to have it, Out
of this number he found only seven
who could completely substantiate
their claim. But these seven We're
very good indeed and made no
mistakes even of half tones or oc-
taves regardless of the instrument
used.
