1. EXTENSION OF ORCHARD AREA
Laborers of the Songhwa Fruit Farm (AWanghae-namdo), who exceeded
the annual fruit production plan by 20 percent annually, plan to expand
the area in order to hareest a larger crops next year.
The laborers finished fruit harvest by October 20, and started to
plant more fruit trees on 617.50 acres which, had already been cultivated.
The workers have left a space between the plants 4 meters in all
directions for the first and second cultivations, the removal of grass
and for the operation of spraying equipment.
Thus they planted 37,000 saplinge by November 15, and they covered
the saplings, which were preserved with straw, and dirt to a height of
30 or 40 centimeters in order to protect them from the cold.
Thus the orchard has been expaned to total area of 2,940 acres,
and it has many advantages through the mechanization of cultivation,
because there have combined fields. (Nodong Sinmun, 21 November 1955)
2. PROAOTION OF AUTUMN CULTIVATION
Autumn cultivation is being promoted at various Farm -ilachene
Rental Stations.

3. TiE MEN 0/110 ALTER NATURE
In the field of Sibyan-ni, a powerful struggle of workers who alter
nature is visible where trucks rush as they slip the roads and hundreds
of flags flutter.
There has occurred a great change in the vast field of Sibyan-ni.
Farmers of this area began irrigation to change 20205 acres into
paddies according to an administrative policy of their government and
party at the beginning of last October. This has been a desire of the
farmers for a long time.
There are various fields in Tosanegun (Hameong-bukto). But roots of
plant usually burn during fair weather and crops are swept away when it
rains. They, therefore, have never been able to harvest over 10 bags
per 2.45 acres of corn or barnyard millet. Before the liberation, the
farmers of this area used to eat the roots of various grasses as food.
The people never thought that this area would be fertile if they
had irrigated from the upper reaches of the Yesong-gang and the Imjinegang.
After the liberations the farmers living in the area had the opportunity
to achieve their desire, with the aid of the government and party, and it
is being realized now. So, the creative and enthusiastic farmers are
accomplishing the irrigation as follosing: From the Isdin-gang to the
east of Tiosan-gun, to the field of Heanggang,_Chiinghang and Pukplo0 and
in the west, from the upper reaches of the Yesong-gang to the fields of
Songchn? KwangsJng and Faengmarum.
The Hwanggang area is the most important one among eight irrigating
programs in Tosan-gun. They established three pumping stations along
the upper stream of Injin-gang in order to convert mtre than 980 acres
of fields into paedies.
Flags are fluttering everywhere they work in the Hwanggang field,
and work starts from early morning with the joy of creative labor.
Farmers from Hongpyo-ris Anbong-ni and Sutlameni came to assist the
farmers of Hwanggang-ni. Among them, the members of the Chinsan-dong
Farm Cooperative of hongmyo-ri, turfed the banks of the 170 meters
apportioned to them.
A pumping station will be established in the middle of the highest
ridge of the Haengdam-so.
There stands i stone wall 30 meter from the station, called Halmigaktam,
which has an odd legend, and this tradition has encouraged the labors
more.
The tradition is as following.
Many many years ago, there vas a strong and powerful old *roman.
Halmigaktem was built by this old lady who brought stones with her
apron from river-side, and the place where she dug the stones is
called Haengdameace

It was, however, shown that the work could be done with good reeulte
if the work was accurately rationalized.
Members of the Iunsu-dong Democratic Youth LeaEue, chiefly 0WCE
Tae-mol and XU Sang-sus who were chosen to heap eci3 on a branch waterways
exceeded the quarter by 30 percent, eeting upon their accurate and
anticipatave system of business.
After a while, when members of taa Naeugjeok;adcla eemocratie
Youth League vasited the works of the meabers of thE aansu-dong Your.
League, in order to learn the best AA-:!' of aecomplishing the operation,
comrade YU Ki-aam, leader of the 1:,;aedong Democratic Youth Leagues
illustrated as follows,
'Tet does not depend upon aotacr ground is seft or hard', eai-

Thus the members of Naengjong-doag Democratic 'Ioeta League came to
understand the work should not be done to acquire a eade reputation.
Thereafter, the elementary party memaers eZ hot e democratic youth

Then, they will bt!, able to harvest almost 2,000 tons more of unhulled
rice annually,
We have examined the gigantic power of the Tosan-gun farmers
altering nature, They are making plans to continuing the same con-
struction next year and the following year also,
Tosan-gun is changing to a field where they can harvest not only
barnyard millet, but also ride, and not 10. bags of corn, but 60 bageof
unhulled?rice. (Nodeng Sinmun, 21 November 1955)

r4. POWER DISTRIBUTED TO LIBERATED PIUNGDoK AREA
Electric power was recently distributed toeTowEn-ni,,
and Haeply3 ocated in the vast P'ungd5k-p51. Farmers of these
villas RI) scarcely could start their living under bright electric
lights after they were embraced in the Republic's bosom,
New electric poles were erected along roads, fields and hilleidee
for 7.3 miles from a nothern hill, and scattered farm-houses were
lighted gradually over a wide area,
There flows the joyful song of farmers who are busy thrashing,
utilizing an electric trashing-machine on the grounds of a farm
coeperative. A rice mill is operated by power, and food factories
were erected and began to produce various foods. Students were able
to perform their experimentation and practices under bright electric
lights.
Working in the fields, farmers can hear the cheerful songs and
news through loud apeakers established here and there The disteibution
of power to these -Tillages has made the farmers' life more plentiful and
abundant, And it las encouraged a fighting spirit and joy to create
new life.
Most of the people ef these fields had never seen' electric lights
during the Japanese occupation or under the tyrannical government of
Syngman HEE, They could, merely use pine torches or kerosene for light,
They had also never thought of using the electric thrashing-machine as
easily as the present day, instead of pounding rice in a mortar.
Bat this desire was realized immediately after they were embraced
in the arms of Republic.
An old member of the Samplung Farm Cooperative (Kusang-dong) which
located in the center of the Plungdak-p31, named SONG Kyu-song, lived
as a farm servant for twenty yearse When he was liberated from the reign
of Syngman MEE, he was given 2,6 acres of well-fertilized paddies from
the Republic government, ard became a farmer for the first time, and
he was getting plenty day after daye
He will be receive 20 bags of rice from the farm cooperative,
This quantity will be enough to last him for a year. Aged SONG has
never met such an abundant autumn in his six years.

It is not only &proud thing to be farmer, but farmers can now
live under brighe electric lights.
They will never forget the night when they sow an electric light
in their home.
When they look out the vast Plungak-pal, their bossoms will
leap with new hope.
What a happy world to live inS
Standing on a hill, aged SONG glanced upon a village laying on
the other side of the demilitarized zone at dusk. There was not even
a glimmer of light.
He was in extreme grief while he thought of the farmers of his
village who had been kidnapped by the enemy and perhaps they were
suffering agony by hunger in tne darkness.
The conditions of liberated farmers' newly developed life were
broadcast by a loudspeaker established on a hill side.
What a proud thing it is Haw can I pay this back. The way is
to work harder and harder!
Old SONG iardadiatly made a roll of straw rope and wove straw bags
under the bright electric light. afterwards, he screwed up his courage to
work. He had woven 40 some straw bags during only a few days. We could
hear the sound of weaving of straw mats and the cheerful chatting voices
from every house till' far into the night. There came a sound of a radio
and the children,s joyful song from here and there.
Farmers of the Sampleng Farm Corporative finished their thrashing
by utilizing an electric thrashing-machine, 15 days ahead of schedule
this year.
Their ideas of hopeful creasioe help to develop the work of their
farm corporative,
It happened at a meeting of the farm corporative that old SONO
proposed that they establish an electric straw rope making machine.
And the rest of the members of the farm corporative supported his proposal.
Farmer CHI Tan-sil, whose son had gone over to South &ma, was
brought to tears stating that he would want to share the happeness
of today with hie son also.
"Committee chairman! Let ue set up one more rice-cleaning machine
in addition to the straw rope-making machine, and scoop water up by

OPPOSITION TC, WASTE OF FUE.i.,
A laborer correspondent points out that the waste of valoable
coal and fuel oil by a few workers of prodeetion enterprises withont
any consideration of saving them, while a vast agitation economization
movement is being waged to save even a gnam of coal or fuel oil.
A correspondent of th Fanghae Iron eorks neports as follows,
A few directing workers of thes'Wle:7,hae Iron Twr,as are neglecting
the storage management of high heat coal. It happens quite often that
high heat coal, which has been supplied in great quantities, causes
spontaneous combustion, becaese they neglect stoeage management.
Recently, there have occureed frequent instanees of spontaneous come.
bustion, and much coal has been wasted.
In order to eliminate this spontaeous combustion, the laborers
proposed that a ventilator tube be set on a pile of high heat coaL
However, the directing members of this iron worke have never heeded
this suggestion. I believe that unresponsible actions such as his
shonld not continue.
A correspondent at the insan Railroad Factory points out the fact
that precious coke is beinL *anted at the factory,.
A vast quantity of coke it3 berng wasted at the gunemetal melting
furnace of our factory.
The reasons is that because a few directing workere do their work
without foresight and never supply the metal to be used in the furnace
at the proper time. Becauee of difficulties. whieh occur if the melting
furnaces cool, the melting workers cannot put out the fire, ?
This sort of unacceptable condition should. .0e corrected immediately.
A correspondent wrote of the fact that much fuel oil has been
wasted in ranam-Imch,51 Loeometive Disteict. They never maintain the
national consumption regulations of fuel oil at the imchtal Locomotive
District. And also, they frequently wasted fuel oil because they nalie
no ability and techniques in saving it. A few days ago, En4eeer 10
Su-Flak wasted 50 kilograms of fuel oil in only one day.
In order to save even a drop of fuel oil, the workers ef this
district should observe the regulations on the national consamption
standard, and must to establish a positive movemen's.

In. order to inceeavo eaeline efficiency, they are aow proceeding
with the construction of ae electric car in a 5,100 meter pit. They
are also constructing a 3,000-tone,apacity coal -ein at Pit No.
