County's Burnley Tobacco
Allotment Cut 20 Per Cent

1t is announced by the AAA
office that the Burley tobacco
acreage had been cut 20 per cent
for this year on acreage allot-
mentS of one acre or more.
According to agricultural lead
ers the reason for this reduction
in Burley for l947 can be based
on the following figures:
The carry-over Of Burley from
1945 to 1916 was 759 million
pounds added to the 1916 pro-
duction of 578 million pounds
gave a total supply of 1887 mil
lion pounds. The disappearance
or consumption in 1947 was ATT
million pounds which would
leave a 1916 carry-over of $50
million pounds. This 1916 carry
over added to the 1947 estimated
production would give a total
1913 supply of more than 400
million pounds. One can easily
see from this that the supply of
Burley tobacco has been built up
until it is three times the con-
The Skyland post. [volume] (West Jefferson, N.C.) 193?-1988, 1947-03-27

sumption. This vast surplus &C
cumulated due to the 10 per cent
increase of individual allotmentS
in l943, the Is per cent increase
in individual allotments in 1914
along with the acre law in 1914
which raised all allotments Of
less than one acre up to an acre
II there was as much as 4 acres
of cropland on the farm. All
these increases plus our step up
IN yields per acre has resulted
in vast surplus which must be
reduced if good Burnley prices are
to continue, it was pointed out,
In November, 1916, a Burnley
Referendum was held in which
more than 90 per cent Of the
Burley growers voting favored
three year control with a 20
per cent reduction if necessary.
1t was pointed out by some
officials that growers need to
work on the marketing end of
the program to do away with the
accumulated surplus.

Cool Spring
Arrives Here

Spring came in with a breeze
that literally became Whirl
wind, Friday and Saturday.
Sunday was typical Spring
day, but winds blew again on
Monday, followed by rains and
thunderStOrmS. Early Tuesday
morning the snow started fall
ing and continued throughout
most of the day as well as into
the night.
The strong wind together
with the blowing snow made
driving hazardous.
Yesterday morning the tenn
perature dropped to a low OF
sixteen degrees above zero,
bringing out winter coats
again.
Several people remarked
that this was the shortest
Spring they had experienced.
Most people predicted that the
weather would continue to re-
main cold until after Easter.
