Stud ing Program,

Howard Il. Corbctt, president
of the North Carolina Yam AS
SociatIOn, has asked for ideas,
Thoughts and suggestions from
fertilizer companies and the
State Department of Agriculture
as the organization steps UP its
move to promote the Carolina
yam.
In recent letter. Mr.. Corbett,
of Wilmington, N. c., pointed out
the thrce-phase yam promotion
program now uppermoSt in the
minds of members of the North
Carolina Yam Association. The
yam group, while only in its
second year, has been agrees
sivcly studying the yam situa-
ton in the Carolinas in recent
months with definite ideas for
the future.
Tit three-phase program con-
sists of: (D Increased yield oil
porto rican yams, (2) Improved
quality, and (3) Increased acre
age and volume by so percent.
In regard to the yield, Mr.
Corbett pointed out that, accord
ing to government figures, the
per acre yield has not increased
one percent in North Carolina
in the last IS years.
In his letter to fertilizer COM
panies, President Corbett said
I'VE feel that the fertilizer in
dustry can and does play a bis
part in this (yam pnoduction)

your advice and suggestions. We
feel that you and your dealer

anyone else to put this program

Yam Market
Closes; Price
Average S2.99

The Tabor City Marketing
Company here closed the 1855
auction season Saturday, No
vcmber Is, with a total volume
of Carolina yams recorded al
94,535 bushels. Ed Walden, sec
retary,- said today.
The marketing company paid
out a total OF S282, 99760 to
growers. an average price OF
S2.99 per bushel.
VIII t'.s - 'E %. Nri"o is the
best paid here in number Vi
years, the volume is consider
ably off. The local market SOLD
1874, 900 bushels in 1857 and that
was a loss from previous sea-
sons.
However, growers and brokers
alike expressed the belief that
the quality generally was the
best in the last four or five
years and that ideal weather
conditions have prevailed thro-
ughout the harvesting season.
Some potatoes are still in the
ground and not hurting from the
summer-likc weather. These
will be sold by growers directly
to buyers on the local market
now that the auction has offici-
ally closed for the season. A
considerable volume has passed
from grower to buyer already
this season and is not reflected
in the marketing company fig

lima Department of Agriculture,
and has pointed out the tenta-
tive plans to mail out folders,
circulars and other information
to yam growers during the spring
and winter months.
I'VE also need the help of the
newspapers, radios, televisions,
and merchants associations to
help us do this job of promoting
the Carolina yam" President
Corbett said.
In planning next years crop,
| believe the first matter of i'm
.portance is seed selection and
preparation Of the beds. In this
connection, am going to ask
the dealers of our association to
offer to run any growers seed
over his grading belts without
charge. This should enable the
dealer TO insure better seed Sc
lection and at the same time. il
his seed are not good enough, to
try to refer the grower TO better
Seed" Mr.. Corbett said in a let
ter to Henry Covington, Of the
N. c. Dept. Of Agriculture.
81 also think that we have
been bedding too few seed for
the desired acreage" he said.
Mr.. Corbett has also emphasize
ed the need for specific insecti-
lcides, fertilizers and soil treat
ment for the Carolina yam grow
ers. He has pointed out that
while some sections have wond-
ierful soil and are bothered very
little with insect infestation, 9th
ers have a greater problem in
this respect.
The N. G. Yam Association
represents about 90 percent Of
potato brokers in North Caro-
lima.
