Both of these, growers are fol lowing good turkey production practices. The brooder houses have wired floors so that the drop pings fall through and sanitary conditions will be maintained in the brooder houses. Automatic -waterers are being used but small feeders are necessary for the young poults. Both growers are practicing debeaking of poults when about two weeks of age so as to avoid feather picking. There are about 25 commercial turkey growers in Chowan County. Most of these raise one flock of turkeys each year, starting their yV\Aftfxfu - tn-r.nr\i~i TftYl nR THtATPF KDENTUN. N. C.

Senator Scoty^B from WASHINGTO^ni President Eisenhower’s campaign to keep his budget intact has come too late. *• This is particularly true in re- 1 spect to his efforts to save many i : of the foreign aid programs he : has proposed. The nationwide television speech es will help, but they are too little i too late. When it comes to their pocket books, the American people won’t i be charmed by broad smiles and i a warm personality. They want facts and figures and reasons be- i hind them, especially when they 1 1 were led to believe during the elec- 1 tion campaign that government spending was being reduced. ] The subject of government ' spending has brought me more mail, telegrams and telephone calls in the past two months than any , other one thing since I have been in the Senate. I Immediately after the President asked Congress for a $72. billion budget, the largest in peacetime history, it was apparent that the general public was irritated, in fact bitter, about the whole business. As soon as he saw the public re action to bis budget, President Eis enhower passed the buck to Con gress with a statement that it was Congress’ duty to cut any and all fat from it that could be found. poults around the last of May or the first of June. This enables them to have the turkeys finished out for market at the Thanksgiv ing and Christmas seasons. , COMPLETES COURSE Army Specialist Third Class Car roll P.

J When hearings on various items in the budget started in Congress, the Administration sent agent as-i ter agent before congressional com mittees with strong pleas to keep it intact. * Almost without exception, the President has bridled and pawed each time Congres suggests places where the budget should be cut. (But yet, the President says it’s Congress’ duty to cut it where it sees fit. I With each new outcry he makes it becomes more difficult to tell how he really feels about his own budget. In each instance, he thinks Con gress and the people should have “faith” in the money he asks. As wishy-washy as he has been in the past about spending in gen eral, his speeches to save his bud get won’t have much effect on Con gress. The people back home have let Congress know how they feel about spending, and Congress has made up its mind to do something. The biggest cuts will probably come in the field of foreign rela tions—that is, foreign aid and our various diplomatic operations. In all, with many domestic expendi tures certain to be reduced also, it appears about $3 billion will be cut from the original requests. Bettie Davis Weds Sfc.

The need there is great: There are fewer professing Christians in New York than in Hong Kong; less than two percent of the population of the city may be found in Protestant churches on any Sunday morning. In years past New York has been stirred by the inspired preaching of such great men of God as Charles Finney, D. L. Moody and Billy Sunday. That prince of American preachers, T. DeWitt Talmage, served as pastor of the Central Presbyterian Church there for over a quarter of a century, preaching to .’crowds of four and five thousand Sunday after Sun- ANTIQUES —AT— BYRUM’S GIFT SHOP Edenton, N.
