climbs 1920 feet with maximum
grade of 5 percent and 10 easy

Fontana Village, largest resort in
the Great Smoky Mountains, is
reached by a new Smile link of
N. C. % which cuts 40 miles off

second and third prize in both divi-
sions of the contest. The Show and
Sale fill the tobacco Warehouse to
Overlooking, and there is standing
room only when Auctioneer
Happy" Carlson begins his sing
song sales pitch. And if just look
ing at the hams isn't enough to
convince anyone of their quality,
visitors can sample slices of ham
fried by white-hatted chef at the
edge of the exhibit space.
Smithfield civic leaders join
Negro farmers in welcoming
guests, and Agent johnson and
Home Agent O'Toole answer
questions and discuss exhibits
with sightseers. Flash bulbs blink
as Negro farmers and their fam
lilies pose with their prize-winning
hams and eggs. A big sign on the
warehouse and banner across the
main street point out the location
of the Show and Sale.
This year Farmer Leonard
Wigs of Henley will be trying
for his third grand prize at the
Show and Sale, having won first
place in 1853 and again in 1854.
Premium prices and big crowds
stimulate enthusiasm among the
farmers and bring national atten-
ton to the Show and Sale, but
they are not it's sole result or pur-
pose. They are evidence Of
steadily maintained farm improve
ment program that has been its
year around accompaniment.
When Sale and Show crowds see
Agent johnson demonstrate the
proper method of preparing ham
for curing, he is describing this
art for perhaps the thousandth
time. The ham he uses as an OBJ
ject lesson is from a top quality
hog fed on first quality corn and
improved pasturage.
Since 1874, Johnston County has
seen definite improvements IN the
life of its Negro farmers. Negro
farmers produced $760,15o worth
of hogs lin 1862 as compared, to
$79, $40 worth in 1945. Their cash
income from hogs in 1862 was
$372, 900 as compared to $39,520
in 1916. Average corn yield on
Negro farms increased from %
bushels per acre in 1915 to so
bushels in 1862. In 1914 there
were few pure bred hogs on Negro
farms in the county; today more
than rs per cent of the Negro
farmers are raising pure bred reg
istefed or good grade of hogs.
Negro farmers are adding to
Johnston County's prestige as one
of the top meat-producing areas
in North Carolina. Their record of
progress since 1914 is their ans
wer to Agent Johnson's INDUCTION:
"Let's prove to people that we |
can grow meat.

from the prophet Micah. ''TIe will

It has seemed to me that the
light in Psalms and the light in
Isaiah and that light that Micah
tells about, is the same spiritual
texture as that which guided the
three men in the desert on their
way to Bethlehem.
They had heard of a certain
Jewish child that was about to be
born there. There had been re-
ports going around that this birth
could be a bright event in the
story of mankind. The three men
on their camels had journeYed
through the night. following the
star toward Bethlehem. Then all
at once the star was no longer in
the skies. and they searched for it
going even to the horizon TO find
il. It was lost. And they grew very
tired and they lay down in the
desert to sleep awhile.
But one of them could not sleep

Asked about the condition OF

complete game since June "a
and was knocked out In the first
inning against the Braves Sat-
urday-Maglie said:
my arm is perfectly okay. /
don't think I'm following through
right. I've experienced trouble
like this before and I'm sure
can work it out. I'll try to get
loosened up by pitching a lot
of batting practice"
He also said the hot weather
had knocked him out.
Manager AL Lopez Of the In
dams was cautious in his COM
ment about his newest hurler.
"I1l have to see him throw
before I decide how I'm going
to use him." said Lopez. whose
club is just one game out of
first place. ''but we're glad to
have him"
With two fine young relief
pitchers in Don Mossi and Ray

staff. the best guess is that the
Indians win use Maglie as spot
pitcher.
