SECTION THREE I May 20 Deadline To Sign Up For's7 ' Marketing Season • _ I Anticipated Coop Ex | 5 ; change Will Open May 27 y The Chowan Cooperative Produce ■ Exchange has set May 20 as the closing date for accepting - new members and sign-up crops for the 1857 vegetable marketing season, according to E. L. Pearce, presi > dent. Present members of the Coopera tive should contact the president or secretary, Carey Evans, immedi ately if they wish to sign up crops , for this marketing season. Any growers who wish to become mem bers of- the Cooperative and sign up crops for this season should do so by May 20. This closing date is set in order that final plans for the marketing season may be work ed out and the manager, Linwood Layton, may know how to set up his plans. It is anticipated that the market will possibly open on May 27. This * depends upon the progress of the crops and it may be that some pro duce will start moving the week of May 20. A letter has been mail ed to prospective buyers stating * the approximate opening date, the list of vegetables and approximate acreage and also the date of move ment. It is hoped that this will help to advertise the market and bring in buyers. This information has also been sent to the- State Depart ment of Agriculture and the Vege table Packer publication. .% _ . GUM POND CLUB MEETS The Gum Pond Home Demonstra tion Club met with Mrs. Earl Smith for its May nieeting with 12 mem bers present. All business being taken care of, the demonstration was then given by Mrs. Carey Ev ans, clothing leader. “Being Well- Dressed At Small Cost” was the topic of the demonstration. Mrs. ( Evans pointed out the fact that p well planned wardrobe to suit per sonal needs was much cheaper and more practical than a closet full of things not suitable to wear. “When you plan to buy clothing check what you have,” said Mr. Evans. “Some small accessories may be all that you need to make an entirely new outfit.” She had samples of materials showing how the-various colors could be used to gether in planning an outfit wheth er it be a coat, suit, blouse or dress. After hearing Mrs.' Evans give this demonstration everyone felt like going home and cleaning out to see what could be added to or worked over in their wardrobe. Miss Beulah Evans, food conser vation leader, gave an interesting talk on freezing strawberries. She showed the club each step from the selection of the berries to the freez er. This was of much interest to all as strawberries are now in sea.- *on. In the absence of the family life leader, Mrs. Charlie Peele, a read ing was given by Mrs. Marvin Smith. ' Refreshments were served by the hostess during the social hour.

Farrowing Pens Prove Successful Chowan Farmer Well Pleased With Ex periment Fred Bunch, Jr., of Cross Roads community decided last winter that 1 he needed to do something to save 1 more pigs at farrowing time. The matter was discussed with County Agent C. W. Overman, and Fred decided to convert some old live stock stables into farrowing pens. The county agent assisted Fred in drawing up plans for the size stalls needed and for facilities to go in them. The building was un derpenned with cement blocks. Stalls about -8 by 10 feet were made. A door was made to each stall so that the brood sow could go outside. Guard rails were con struoted around the stalls and an electric brooder was constructed in one coiner of each stall, i Fred packed the soil as securely I as possible in each of the pens and scattered a small amount of litter about the floor. The stalls were used for spring farrowing. Fred j reported last week that he did not have a single mashed pig in any i of the farrows and was well pleas j ed with his venture thus far. | These farrowing facilities were constructed at a minimum of cost, j Mr. White stated that the expense j involved and the labor it took for 'the work was well justified in the saving of pigs this spring over his experience in the past. “Hog rais ers in Chowan County, regardless of the number of brood sows kept, You Don’t Want To Miss!
