Administration, is in Hertford the second Wednesday. of
each month at the Perquimans County Court House.

Camping 'is increasing prodigi
ously. In 1958 about 68 million
visits were recorded on the na
tional forests alone three times
more than in 1946. This volume
and intensity of public camping
gound use, coast to coast, is
staggering. Use alone, to say
nothing of health and common
decency, dictate that cleanliness
on the nation's camp-grounds be
improved and upgraded.
Despite inadequacy and disre
pair of sanitary facilities on
some public camp-grounds, no
serious epidemic has yet arisen
from them, That's because the
basic rules of human sanitation
are presently being met. In ithe
May issue of Sports Afield
Magazine, Lee Yeager discusses
a. few principles governing waste
and garbage disposal.
In the camps of hunters, fish
ermen and families, the first
thought should be directed to-1
ward- safe disposal of excretory
wastes. Where campground toi
lets are provided . this - is no
problem,' except where careless
ness or disrepair leaves such fa
cilities exposed to flies, or more
rarely, contamination of the
ground surface. Under such cir
cumstances it is good insurance
to make repairs, disinfect or
move to safer, ground.
Under big-woods and wilder
ness conditions, ithe shovel is the
standard disposal tool. In (back
country camps a shovel with a
roll of toilet paper slipped onto
the handle is a common sight;
and safety in disposal,, with this
simplest of all methods, mere
ly requires the lifting of a few
shovelf ulls of earth and replac
ing it after use., :
A more satisfactory disposal
system, especially for groups
spending a week or . more in
camp, is the field latrine. This
is the standard disposal method
in military bivouacs, and con
sists merely of a trendh dug in
the ground with the loose soil
banked at one side. The "slit"
need not be more 'than -a foot
wide or two feet deep; it may
be of any length.
In all cases toilet paper should

I problem in a practical way.
Breaking camp provides the
final test of the camoer's dis
cipline out-of-doors. More often
tnan not camps are broken hur
riedly, sometimes in ,the onrush
of darkness or . even ait night.'
Then, the temptation to toss
garbage and tin cans aside is
stronger than at any either time.
He who leaves an untidy, waste
strewn campsite under such cir
cumstances, however, far back,
must be regarded as careless, or
ignorant, or both. But the
camper who makes certain that
the latrine is closed, that gar
bage and tin cans are buried,
and that the site is left neat
and urtcontaminated, not only
demonstrates his responsibility
outdoors, but leaves a safe .and
attractive place for the next
camping party.

Cash Receipts From 1
Poultry Down 11
I Despite an increase over 1958 '
i in sales of poultry and eggs,
Worth Carolina cash receipts for)
1959 from these sources were
down 11 percent. Lower prices
for all commodities involved j
were responsible for the de
crease. Greatest reductions oc
curred through the sales of
broilers and eggs. Cash receipts
for broilers at $68,920,000 were
down $9,256,000, while the $54,
005,000 received for eggs was
down, $7,381,000.
' Although 9,240,000 ' more
pounds -of broilers and 145,000,
000 more eggs were marketed
than in 1958, the average price
of broilers per pound was off
about 14 percent, while dHcp of
eggs per dozen was off 19 percent.
Total receipts from the sale of
'farm" chickens and tiirkpvq
showed an increase because
volume of sales offset reduced
prices, but income from these
items was minor in relation to
that obtained from broilers and
eggs.
EGG PRODUCTION DOWN
Production of eggs on North
Carolina farms during April to
taled 180,000 million, a decrease
of 8 million from the previous
record high production during
April, 1959, according to the,'
North Carolina Crop Reporting I
Service. I
The decrease in egg produc-1
tion is attributed to a sliehtlv !
smaller number of hens and
pullets of laying age on farms
during April and a lower rate
of lay. Hens and pullets of lay
ing age totaled 9,700,000 . corn-
year
pared with 9,830,000 a
earlier.
Production per 100 layers dur
ing April is estimated at 1,860
eggs compared with 1,908 in
Aprii, 1959.

GONE AND DONE!
The same Corrair that tallied a thumping 27.03
miles per gallon in the Mobilgas Economy
Run . . . went right on to climb Pikes Peak
earlier in the spring than any car
has ever tried!
We wanted to show you what the fabulous traction
of Comir's rear-engine design and the sure
footedness of four-wheel independent suspension
really mean. So the identical Economy Run car
went right on to 14,110-foot Pikes Peak and right
up to the top of that savage mountain, on April 15,
still deep in winter's snow and ice. No other car
even specially equipped had ever been able to
conquer that nightmare alpine road so early in
the spring. But Corvair (with United States Auto
Club officials aboard to certify that not one nut
or bolt was changed) purred right to the summit
without chains or even snow tires! That just
underscores the fact that Corvair hTtotally unique.
But you'll find that out the first five minutes
you're st the wheel!
