Work Continues
At Farmville
Dress Company

Two new employees were
added at the Farmville Dress
Company this morning, as pro-
duction continued normal, accord
ing to Leonard Anderson, owner
of the local garment factory.
''We have a backlog of work"
Anderson said, land we will con
tinue to hire new workers to
keep up normal production and
to fill our orders" Anderson
seemed pleased with the amount
of work being produced at the
plant, and stated that he would
continue to hire as many new
workers as necessary.
Mrs. Madalene Allen, union
representative, said this morning
that the strikers were still out,
both here in Farmville, and in
New York, where the union has
struck the jobber or manufac-
turer.
There has been no attempt to
settle the local strike as every
one seems to be watching the
action in New York.

They have received an advance
payment. slightly less than half
of the total they'll get, amounting
to $14,456. according to a prog
ress report on the program given
today by D. C. CAN'T, manager
of the ASC office in the county.
The deadline for signing up for
the program falls this week ON
Friday May lo), CAN'T reminded
farmers today. The sign-up re-
quires an application to partici-
pate which is not binding if the
farmer decides, after learning of
his acreage assignment from the
ASC committee, not to follow
through.
The final commitment comes
after the original tentative sign
up when the farmer signs an in
tention to participate.
In Prince Edward county, the
vast majority of the land taken
out of production was devoted to
raising corn. CAN'T said the 1872
farmers had total base acre
age, based on production the last
two years. of 1923 acres. Of this
they have committed 1,134 acres,
or 60 per cent, to the nonplant-
ing program.
The county has only three grain
sorghum producers in the pro-
gram as of today.
CAN'T said he anticipates a
final total of about 100 farmers
entering the program by Fridays
deadline.

Weather Quip
Start Rice Crop!

Prince Edward county agent.
Asked to comment on the
weather and farm work stu
alton, Peery replied:
Everybody wants to plant
rice!"
The agent said the chief
results of the soggy month
to date have been a delay in
tobacco plant bed prepara-
ton, and the deterioration of
hay supplies. Many tobacco
farmers were caught without
plant bed blowing and fertil-
izing. and now must wait
drying out of the land.
Some farmers already have
lost hay, and stands are be-
coming "stalky," Peery said.
The situation could quickly
right itself with a consecutive
period of bright weather, he
added.
