A truck will be at R. A Cook’s farm and farmers will be notified to bring their baled Turk ish tobacco for consolidating the to bacco in Laurens county to be load ed on tne truck to save the farmers unnecessary travel to Anderson where the only market for Aromatic (Turkish) tobacco in the Jfnited States is located. There are approx imately 12 acres of tobacco \eing harvested in Laurens county \this < ► year by 28 farmers. This compares with only four farmers growing 1 three-fourths acre, producing 2110 pounds of tobacco in 1949 in Lau rens county. Efforts are being made to have the truck return to the county after Sep tember 6 for purchasing the tobacco that is not ready for market by Sep tember 6. The farmers will be noti fied in due time of the return truck. Nitrogen For Winter Grazing Five car loads or 175 tons, of T. V. A. nitrogen have been received and < > delivered to farmers interested in winter pasture. The sixth car of nit- ' rogen was ordered the first of the 1 week of 50 tons making a total of 225 tons of 33 percent ammonium nitrate, which is equivalent to 450 tons of Nitrate of Soda. This nitrogen is being used on demonstrations of which the farmers will furnish cer tain information on the results ob tained to the county agent. The nit rogen is ordered in cooperative or ders and was handled through the Laurens county Agricultural com mittee at no profit. The committee is composed of J. W. Tinsley, Laurens, Rt. 3, Chairman; D. Eugene Brown,! Laurens, Rt. 2, and Fred Irwin, Lau rens, Rt. 2. __ Little Leaguers Grateful To Friends Head coach D. S. Templeton said Tuesday that in behalf of the .Little Leaguers he desires to thank every one for their interest, kindnesses and contributions.
