PAGE EIGHT -SECTION TWO ■1 SOU CONSERVATION NEWS |! || By JAMES H. GRIFFIN, Soil Conservationist M' Sixteen farmers in Chowan County beeartie district cooperators of the Albemarle Soil Conservation during April. These farmers sign • ad an agreement with the district Hying they wanted to develop soil and water conservation plans on their farms. These farmers are Thomas P. Griffin, W. S. Morris, C. W. Tyneh, G. E. Nixon, John Parrish, B. C. Hare, J. D. Harrell, J. L. Forehand, J. W. Goodwin, Jr., J. H. Morgan, Lloyd Briggs, J. H Roberts, Gordon Boyce, W. A. Har ■ roll, G. S. Goodwin and Robert j Capehart. A soil surveyor will map the soils on these farms within the next few weeks. After the soils have been typed, the maps will be used by the farmers and the work unit conservationist to make the soil and water conservation plan. Rotations will be worked out for the crops grown on the farm. Such things as diseases, insects, soil type or suitability, economic conditions and other factors will be consid ered in working out this rotational system for the farm. The farm plan' includes all phases of farm ing necessary for good land use of the soils found on the farm. Where needed forestry and wildlife prac tices, drainage, contour rows, sod waterways and other practices are planned to be done in the future. Actually, a farm plan is an inven- WMY WE SELL <J»ttCOhim POWER MOWERS... As specialists in lawn and garden supplies, our business depends on satisfied custom ers.

Land is classified into seven land classes according to the capabili ties of the soil. Class I land will grow most crops every year with only good management practices. Class II land needs moderate con servation treatment. Sometimes this treatment consists of drainage, contour rows, sod crop, or soil building crop like crotaiarice. Class I 111 land is land that, because of one or more reasons, it needs in tensive conservation treatment. In this section of the state it’s usual ly a complete drainage system but it could be a fertility problem on some of these deep sands. Class IV land is land that should be in perennial vegetation most of the time. About one crop in four years is the best that can be expected from this land. Drainage is us ually the cause of these conditions, although, in certain parts of the county fertility of certain deep sands are the cause of the Class IV rating of this land. There are four more classes of land found on farms. This land should not be cultivated because of the hazardous conditions in which it is located. Severe drainage, fer tility, or erosion conditions are present and if cultivated the farm er cannot expect a net return from his farming. These classes of land are used for pasture, hay, Wood land, wildlife or other perennial vegetation. Class V needs normal good care for pasture, hay, wood land, or wildlife. Class VI needs careful management for these prac tices. Class VII needs extremely careful management and Class j VIII land is suited only for wild j life and recreation. Most of the farmland in Cho wan County is in the first four | classes and can be used for culti- I vated crops if good soil manage- I ment practices ate used. These soil management practices are rota tion adequate drainage, soil build ing crops (crotolarice, vetch, crim son clover, etc.), cover crops and proper lime and fertilizer. A good conservation plan on your farm can make you mohey and save your sail for future • genera tions to use for their livelihood, too. TAX COLLECTIONS Sheriff J. A. Bunch reports that during April 1955 taxes collected amounted to $11,623.65. This brings total 1955 taxes collected to date to $166,626.06. A list of those who have not paid their 1955 taxes appears in this week’s Herald and property will be sold at the Court Housj door Monday, June 4, if taxes are not paid before that time.

Not necessarily the prettiest girl at j school nor the one with the most! elaborate wardrobe. Usually she i is the girl who genuinely likes oth er people, has friendly manners and a knack for making everyone around her comfortable and happy. While she may not be a cover girl, you may be sure she’s always groomed to the shining hair. She has lots of interests, likes to dance, swim, sew and cook. Maybe it’s because she is a good hostess and can cook that the crowd always makes a bee line for her house. Just between you and me, you can do what she can do if you set your mind to it!

You won’t rec | ognize the party pancake that turns '■ up as the luncheon’s main course, i Hot off the griddle and ready for fame, serve sausage roll-ups and cinnamon apples—a wonderful mid morning brunch idea. Roll pan rakes around plump pork sausage and serve with cinnamon apples. It’s a wonderful combination. See if you don’t agree. For cinnamon apples, combine 1 1 a cups water, ’a cup sugar, and l 4 cup of cinnamon candies. Bring to boil. When candies have melt ed. add apples. Continue cooking over low heat, turning apples fre quently. Cook until apples are ten der when pricked with a fork. Re move from hot liquid. Pan fry pork sausage links. Placp two rooked sausages across each pancake; roll up. Arrange on platter with cinnamon apples. Serve hot liquid from apples to | pour over pancakes. Table Etiquette—Do you panic at the thought of setting a table for a party dinner —or even going to one and not knowing which fork to use? There’s no need to worry. Table setting rules are sensible and simple. Remember it’s good eti quette to follow your hostess’ lead. Don’t start to eat until she does and then use the same piece of sil ver. The host sits at one end of the table, the hoßtess at the other end. A lady guest of honor is seat ed at her host’s right; a gentlemen guest of honor at his hostess’ right. Placing Silver. To set the table, use only pieces of silver necessary for the meal. Place silver about one inch from the edge of table, with pieces to be used first on out side. Knives and spoons go to the right of plate, forks to the left. Table Linens—Fold napkins square or rectangular and place to the left of forks. Tablecloth should overhang the table 10 to 15 inch es and should be exactly centered on the table. If you use place mats instead of a tablecloth, they should be set one inch in from the edge of the table. Thrift ts care and scruple in the spending of one’s means. It is not a virtue, and it requires neither skill nor talent —Emmanuel Kant ■—Pascal. Legal Notices NOTICE! NOTICE! NOTICE!
