GROUND WATER AVAILABLE
ALONG DARE COUNTY COAST

Moderate to large supplies of
ground water can be obtained in
the Dare Beaches Sanitary District
on Bodie Island, Dare County, N.
c., according to a Geological Sur
vey report prepared in cooperation
with the North Carolina Depart
ment of Water Resources and re-
leased recently by the Department
of the Interior.
Water is now obtained from shall
low driven wells in the built-up
sections of the island. The coop
erative program was designed to
evaluate the possibilities of OBJ
tanning larger supplies in other
->""+s of the District. 1t showed
that unconsolidated sand deposits
of recent age near the center of
Bodie Island will yield moderate to
large supplies of good water. Small
supplies are available elsewhere.
"Ground-Water Supply for the
Dare Beaches Sanitary District,
North Carolina" was written by
Joel o. Kinney and incorporates
geologic and Hydrologic data OBJ
tanned from 96 test wells. Pending
publication as a bulletin of the
North Carolina Department of Wa
ter Resources, typewriter copies
of the report are available for pub
lie inspection in the offices of the

NEW APPROACH DOUBLES
INCOME OF WIDOWS FARM

What happens to the farm when
the farmer dies and his widow has
to take it over? Let's look at the
case of Mrs. Leila Burns of Cum
berland County. Her husband died
in 1866, leaving her a farm that
she knew little about managing.
Realizing her inadequacy, she put
the farm in the soil bank.
1.-TWO years later, Mrs. Burns de-
cided that she and her tenant would
have to try to run the farm" says
F. E. Leathers, assistant Negro
agent. "But she soon found out that
she didn't know enough about man.
agement of a farm"
The farm started downhill and
picked up speed. "From 1866 to
1860, l didn't make any money on
the farm" she says.
In 1859, they grew five acres
of tobacco. 1t averaged 1000
pounds per acre, for which they
got about As cents a pound. Gross
income from tobacco was only ST.
25O.
That same year, her six acres of
peanuts yielded $40 pounds (eight
bags) per acre. Total peanut in
co.." Voc S4O5.
Mrs. Burns decided she needed
help. and she turned to Leathers.
He put her on the Farm and Home
Development Program.
81 found that her farm was
plagued with improper manage
ment practices, lack of nutrients in
the soil, crop diseases, the wrong
kind of seed and poor cultural
methods" says Leathers.
Farm and Home Development
has reversed the farms downhill
trend.
1t began with a soil test last
year of all land on the farm. Mrs,
Burns followed all recommenda-
tions based on the test-liming, ap-
plication of sulfate and muriate
potash, accurate topdressing, pro-
per cultural practices-on her 1860
crops.
On her tobacco, the yield jumped
to 1900 pounds per acre - with
less fertilizer and no topdressing.
1t sold for 65 cents a pound.
"Mrs. Burns got $500 for the
crop off the same five acres" says
Leathers. ain other words, using
$50 pounds less fertilizer, she
made $2,95O more than in 1852"
On the peanuts, she got 1,700
pounds per acre-1,060 more than
the previous year. She was paid
$1,013 for the crop, compared to
$405 in 1859.

ment approach has helped boost in

THREE COUNTIES PRODUCE
NEARLY THREE AND HALF
MILLIONS OF PULPWOOD

The South led the world with a
record pulpwood harvest in 1859.
Three counties in North Carolina
produced $4,479,90O worth.
The value of pulpwood produced
in the South as raw material for
the pulp and paper industry total
ed $455 100000, an increase of IL
per cent over 1858, according to
H. j. Malsberger, general manager
of the Southern Pulpwood Conser-
vation Association, in Atlanta.
This value was based on a 12-
state pulpwood production survey
by the U. S. Forest Service Expert
ment Stations in Asheville, and
New Orleans, in cooperation with
SPCA.
The total value of the pulpwcod
crop harvested in North Carolina
last year was $42,916,OOO, thirteen
per cent more than the pulpwood
crop harvested in the state in 1858.
Of the 81 counties in North Car
olina where pulpwood is produced,
Brunswick, Onslow and Bladen
counties were the leading producers
with pulpwood crops valued at ST.
770,940. S1,411,6 ,620 and $1,297,340,
respectively.
The South harvested more pulp
wood last year than all of the re-
mainder of the United States; more
than any other single country; and
more than any other area of COM
parable size in the world.

with continued work in polio,
