Summing up, Lee says the
more suitable soil conditions for
Turkish tobacco appear to be:
ID medium-thick loans with
moderately open subsoils. GU a
moderate level of fertility (about
30-bushel corn land) and no
freshly turned or recently added
organic material. Manure should
be worked into the soil in late

aromatic tobacco crop. Fall-turn.

Soil Conservation District News
BY F. M. GLOVER, JR.
WhiteVille, N. G..

"When $50 feet of drain tile
prevents one acre of tobacco from
Hopping" that's the best drain
age investment I know Of" That
was w. c. Prevatte's comment
recently while talking about a
tile drainage line that was in
stalled on his cemetery farm
one mile north of Whiteville.
This particular tile line that
Prevatte was commenting about
is an intercepting line that cuts
off the seepage of water on a
mild slope of Class I land. The
tile was surveyed by technicians
of the Soil Conservation Service
and installed last fall by a tile
trenching machine operating In
the county.
THAT is only one of the
several tile lines I have, but I
noticed it more this year than
any of the others because under
similar rainfall conditions, at
least one acre of tobacco would
have "flopped" on that land"
Prevatte added.
The tobacco crop is just about
harvested, selling has started,
and the farmers have very little
time to think about anything
else. There is one thought, how.
ever, that would like to impress
upon the farmers who plan to
/ install large quantities of tile
this fall. Plan how much tile you
are going to install, place the
order, and take delivery this
summer so that the tile will be
on hand when you need it. When
everyone else Is installing tile
it is sometimes hard to get tile
when you need it.
Gordon Townsend, conserva
ton farmer and local merchant,
who lives seven miles northwest
of Whiteville, reports that ter
races and contour tillage on some
of his Class II (eroded) land
worked like a charm this year
with the tobacco grown on this
land.
Before I installed the terraces
the surface water from the up
per part of the field would
FLOOD" the middle and lower
part of the field. With the ter
races carrying the excess water
to an open ditch on the side OF
the field, and each row carrying
it's own water, the moisture of
the field was regulated so that
1 made a good tobacco crop this
year. am satisfied that I would
have lost close to an acre of to-
bacco this year had I not install.
ed the terrances;" Townsend
said.
Bill Hooks, conservation farmer
five miles north of Whiteville, Is
convinced that a good rotation
will cure a lot of the conditions
now affecting the tobacco crop
"A two.year rotation is good
and a three-year rotation would
be better. The main thing is to
keep all crops out of the tobacco
land that will increase Root
Knot, and ETC., such as corn, cot
ton, and winter peas, and use
small grain and weeds instead.
A good two.year rotation would
be small grain for harvest, or
hay, behind the tobacco, let
crop of weeds grow behind the
small grain, cut the weeds IN
green and seed ryegrass or small
grain for winter cover before the
next crop of tobacco" HOOKS
said.

Turkish Tobacco
Is Tricky Crop

Tricky is the word for Tur,
kish aromatic tobacco, says Viii.
liam D. Lee, soil specialist for
the State College Extension
Service.
In fact, says Lee, Turkish leaf
probably is the "trickiest" crop
grown commercially in the State.
1t is far more responsive to nj
trogen and organic residues in
the soil than are any other crops.
For example, Lee asserts, an
application of only 10 pounds OF
nitrogen per acre, made on
field which apparently needs a
"stimulant," will cause rapid
growth with thick, dark-greer
leaves and resultant low
quality.
