Wiggins, SCS Woodland Con servationist; Fred Tunstall, farm operator, and myself started drawing up the woodland plan last Wednesday. Most of the woodland meets special prepara tion to get it into pine production. Some salvage cutting of scrub pines and hardwoods can be made and sold for pulpwood. The re mainder of the woods must be disked and undesirable trees pois one. If Mr. Byrum carried out his woodland plan he can expect some income from his woods in about 15 years, according to John Wiggins, SCS Woodland Conser vationist. If he does not carry out the plan it will be 30 years or more before any income can be obtained. Woods are a valuable crop 'in Chowan County but it will not produce unless some work is done to improve it. Mr. Byrum plans to improve his woodland. Edenton Navy Man On Antarctic Cruise James E.

The Arneb will transit the Pan-, ama Canal, enroute to Port Lyt tleton, New Zealand, where she is scheduled to arrivfe December 30. Christmas will be spent at sea with aivine services being held for all religions, and Christmas packages from home will be open ed as well as those donated by the Norfolk Chapter of the American Red Cross. The crew, almost en tirely a volunteer group, will en joy the traditional turkey with all the trimmings. When tne “Antarctic Express” arrives in New Zealand, a few days of rest and relaxation will be afforded the crew while the ship is rigged for operations in the ice. Once the Arneb crosses the Antarctic Circle the real job commences. No definite returning date can be established for the Arneb be cause Of' the extensive changing of weather and fee conditions during the • Continent’s summer season. However, once her mis sion is completed, she is expected to return to the' U. S. some time in the early spring.

Scuppernong is still a standard variety and well known to most people in eastern North Carolina. It is greenish bronze, sweet and of good quality. It is self-un | fruitful. , | Thomas, also one of the older : varieties, is a dark wine colored I grape which is tender, juicy, very ] sweet with a rich fruity flavor. 1 j It is one of the best for u.nfer- I mented juice and preserves.
