Negroes Participating In Important
Agricultural Vote On Sept. 30

IS Negro farm families are ex-
pected to be well represented
when North Carolinians go to
the polls in the important
"Nickles for Knowttow" refer
endum on Sept. 80.
The. question before the voters
will be whether or not they wish
to continue this self-help pro-
gram in support Of increased
agricultural research and edu-
cation started in 1852.
The program has been strong
ly endorsed by Negro leaders
across the state, including the
state leader of Negro agricultur-
al extension work, r. E. Jones.
He says, "This program has
further deepened the respect of
farm people for the indispen-
sable place and importance Of
research and education in the
solution of problems affecting
livestock and crop enterprises,
along with the necessity Of
group knowledge and action to
solve many of the problems af-
fecting rural people in North
Carolina"
The September 80 referendum
will be the fourth held on this
project. The first one was in
late 1851, with others in 1854
and 1857, State law requires a
vote every three years on pro-

Cne Agricultural FOundatlOn at
N. G. State College.
The money has been used for
an expanded program of agricul-
tural research and education.
Through the use of these funds,
it has been possible to carry on
additional research with almost
all major crops and livestock in
the state.
Under the educational phases
of the program, both the poultry
and horticulture extension spec
ialist positions in Negro extern
sion work were created with
Nickels for Know-How funds.
In the opinion Of Jones, 'these
two positions have broadened
and "deepened the technology
and economic appreciation of
the poultry and vegetable pro-
duction enterprises among ex-
tension personnel, both men and
women. We now have many
more agents and farm people
utilizing these enterprises on
the farms to add to their in
come. This would not have been
possible had we not had the
source of technical help provid-
ed through Nickels for Know
How
When the Negro poultry
specialist was employed in 1854,
there were Is All pullet chains
in the So counties where Negro
agents were employed. These IS
chains involved 159 club mem
bers and 5000 birds. Today there
are 81 such chains involving
306 members and 1878 chicks.
Of the $4,000 Negro farm
operators in the state in 1854,
$4,000 had 1,221,269 chickens on
their farms. In 1859 the number
had increased to- 48,310 farmers
and to more than 17s million
birds. .-.%
Broiler and commercial egg
production has grown from al
most zero to impressive figures.
One. Of the greatest assets OF
my community is its beautiful
homes, schools, churches and
roadsides. The new horticulture
program is resulting in progress
in this area. It's also resulting
in increased attention to more
home food production for the
family, a recognized weakness
in the Negro community.
\ All users of feed and fertilizer
are eligible to vote. This includes

been the best expression of un-
fettered, and objective participa-
ton of all farm people in the
exercise Of the franchise of voter
participation, without regard to
race, creed, color or holdings
that we have observed" declares
Jones. "In no case have We ex-
perienced bases to voting in

held. On the contrary, numerous

"The script seldom deviates,
Late In the first quarter OF
early in the second when the
score is close and the game

up with a drive that looks
uchdown-hound. Maybe it's
q long pass--or q good run
but whatever it is they look
alive and seem to want to play
football. Down goes the white
cloth--l5-yard penalty (5-yard
penalties are rare at this pcint)
The Skins attack loses its
punch and the ball goes to
the opposition. Minutes later
a pass-interference against the
Skins. Opponents in scoring
p0sition-a score.
From then on it's just a
matter Of adding up points for
the opposition. The type of
infraction might vary at this
point in the game but it's
usually 'back-bresker' against
the Skins. II one call like
this isn't enough another
.back-breaker' generally will do
the trick. The result? The
home teams spirit seems to
collapse and for the remainder
of the game they look like
they're just going through the
motions Of playing football,
with one or two exceptions"
So 80
! The author of the note says
that when the Redskins are
well behind the officials call q
few against the other team
and in the final statistics the
levies against both teams seem
pretty well balanced. But
statistics don't show how the
timing of penalties can set the
4 tempo of a game.
! "An exception to the above
seems to appear when the Skins
play a league leader. Ofiiciating
takes q decided turn for the
better for some unexplainable
reason. The familiar early
penalty calling is conspicuous
by its absence. Perhaps it's
only q coincidence, but. the
Skins also play their best
against the top contenders.
Too many of these early
game attractions against the
Skins are visible only to the
officials who call them" he
adds. There were a couple of
fine examples OF this last Sum
day in the first half"
Seems that Halas and other
