In other words, Joe, if you were

Planting Period

The weather specialists and the
crop statisticians can now tell you
when you may expect fair wealth
err for your field work.
Based on so years records COM
piled by the Raleigh weather sta
ton, information is now available
on the number of "open'' Or clear
days you may reasonably expect
during the period from March
through May, which covers pretty
well the planting season in North
Carolina.
For each of the weeks in this
three-months period, c. E. La
moureux meteorologist, has shown
the percentage Of the time where
We have had three or more days
without rainfall, five Or more and
seven OR more days which might
be regarded as favorable for out
door farm work.
This study, now being used by
the statistics division of the state
agriculture department in its CO.
operative activities with the
weather bureau, indicates that ma
ture provides a period from mid
April to midway when there is a
great deal of weather which per-
mits soil preparation and general
field work.
In the first week o. March, we
have averaged having three good
work days 20 per cent of the time
and seven pretty days around
four per cent of the time.
The 5O-year period shows, how
ever, that from the middle of April
until the last of May, the weather
has been clear for at least seven
days around eight per cent of the
time.
Furthermore, in the period from
April q to about May 3 we have
had at least three days of open
weather 40 per cent Of tine time.
From the middle of March until
the end of May in the years since
1896 there have been a minimum
of five days of pretty weather ap-
proximately IS per cent of the

This is the crux of the AGRICULTURAL
income problem.
1t isn't what We receive for our
commodities that is so important;
but it is what we receive in rela-
ZION to- what we must pay to pro-
duce these commodities.
Consequently, farmers should

EARN incomes realized since 1910
So far as the majority of farm
ers are concerned, payment Of
federal income taxes has been a
wartime phenomenon. Such pay.
ments by farmers in 1945 and 1916
are now tentatively estimated al
$500, DOC, 900 per year.
During the period between the
two wars federal income tax pay
ments by farmers were negligible.
And during the high-income years
OF World War l. although many
farmers paid income taxes-the
rates were modest as compared
with now.
So we can see that a decrease
IN income taxes would add materi-
ally to the net income of the
farmer.
In recent years farmers have
PAID an estimated 5000 900, 900 an.
nually in automobile and truck Ii.
censes, drivers permits, federal
and state gasoline taxes, and fed.
eral use taxes.
Moving as we are through this
period of price transition, we
should be careful of speculation on
anything. It is impossible to know
what land values will be a year
hence, and we should exercise our
b G S judgment before purchasing
land of any kind.
And the farmer who holds his
commodities for higher prices or
who purchases products on the
chance of making a profit at a
later date is gambling With c
little reserve he has garnereo
through high prices engendered by
the war.

WELL BALANCED
RATIONS NEEDED
FOR BEST SOWS

What's good for the pig is not
necessarily good for the sow, says
DR.. William Moore, veterinarian
with the state agriculture depart
Iment.
He reports that a recent test
ration based on ground corn anc
including only five per cent alfal-
ia hay was fine for growing and
fattening pigs, but sow receiving
this ration failed to produce thrift
ty litters.
More than half of the pigs from
these sows died before weaving.
When the alfalfa hay "a boost
ed to Is per cent, however, the
sows narrowed healthy filters -
although this was still inadequate
and some of the soWs collapsed
after nursing their newborn pigs

culture this year.
Exports are well above prewar
and are expected to continue
strong throughout the 1947-48 mar

agreement and other loans should

ably.
In this state We are in an over
all position to absorb some price
declines in other commodities so
long as tobacco holds.
Now, while tobacco is in de-
mand, let us employ this period
to become more diversified in our
farming activities, so that our
agricultural prosperity need not
be dependent on any one commod-
ity.
The answer to price fluctuations
IS a balanced agricultural pro-
