QUESTION:: Can 1 grow good
quality aromatic tobacco in eastern
North Carolina?
ANSWER: Chances are, no. Ar
omatic tobacco is probably more
sensitive to the soil in which it is
grown than any other crop planted
in this region, making the selec-
ton and preparation of the soil
highly important. A medium top
soil containing mixture Of sand,
gravel and small rock fragments
it best. The subsoil should be a
clay loan or light clay. Neither the
heavy clay soils nor the light, sandy
soils are suitable. In the Piedmont
the soils which have generally
produced the better quality aro-
matte tobacco are Madison gravel
ly sandy loan or sandy clay lbam,
Applying sandy loan, and Cecil
gravelly sandy clay loan. Another
good soil not yet widely used is
the Surry gravelly loan. In the
foothills of the Mountains the
lakewood, Watuga, Clifton, Port
ers, and Ashe soils have regularly
produced satisfactory yields. Rich
and naturally fertile soil are not
suited for aromatic tobacco pro-
duction because they produce
large plants with heavy leaves and
other undesirable features.
QUESTION: AS a sweet potato
grower, should I change from
Porto Rcos to the Goldrush varie-
ty?
ANSWER: Not entirely. Until
the market acceptability for the
Goldrush variety is more firmly
established, your best bet would
be to plant only part Of your crop
in this variety. In tests Goldrush
variety sweet potatoes have out
yielded the Porto Ricos for three
years. While the yield OF Goldrush
has been favorable, under certain
conditions it tends to vein slightly
Also, it is quite susceptible to in
ternal cork, but has a high degr,

Late Score by Lions
Earns Tie, C|inches
Shot al Third Title
By the Associated Press

Half of the National Football
Leagues championship bracket
was filled today by the familiar
Detroit Lions. And the other half
figures to be occupied by the
even more familiar Cleveland
Browns for the championship
playof game December e.,
The Lions wrapped up their
third straight Western Division
title and earned a shot at their
third successive league crown by
rallying for a touchdown in the
final four minutes yesterday in
Detroit to tie the Philadelphia
Eagles, 1913.
At the same time the Browns
clinched at least a tie for the
Eastern Division title-an honor
carried off by Paul Browns club
each of the last five years. The
Browns ground out a methodical
34-14 victory over the Washing
ton Redskins.
The surprising New York
Giants, however, maintained a
mathematical chance of tying
the Browns by defeating the
Pittsburgh Steelers, 24-3. The
Browns, with an 30 record, meet
Pittsburgh next Sunday and
close out the regular campaign
December 19 against Detroit.
New York (7-4) winds up
against Philadelphia Sunday.
In other games yesterday, the
Chicago Bears strengthened their
hold on second place in the
Western Division with a 29-7
decision over the Chicago Cardi-
mails, while San Francisco, still
in the running for second place
back of the Lions, shut out Green
Bay, $50.
The Lions, beaten only by the
Forty Miners this season, faced
a 1876 deficit with four minutes
to play. Then they sent Lew
Carpenter over from a yard out
and Doak Walker kicked the
tying extra point for his 38th
without a miss.
Before that, however, the
Eagles gave the. Lions a going
