SECTION TWO Edenton Firms Prepared For New Fall Business y IIUQ NEWEST MOTOR COMPANY |~~«i vJBL CHOWAN MOTOR COMPANY Just a little over two years ago, June 1, 1933, to be exact, the Chowan Motor Company was formed, which is composed of J.

This combination includes all the requisites necessary to conduct a successful automobile concern, and as a result has built up a splendid business, selling many Chevrolet cars in this and adjoin ing counties, as well as winning many customers for automobile repairs. C. F. Russell, J. L.

Edenton, Chowan County, North Carolina, Thursday, September 12, 1935. . Excellent Array Os New Stock On Hand Message Sent to Many Neighboring Potential Customers INVITE - VISITORS Merchants Assure Good Merchandise at Fair Prices Being desirous to expand and be of greater service to a larger number of people, Edenton business concerns this week, in cooperation with the Chowan Herald, are sending a mess age to many readers, calling atten tion to the merchandise carried in stock and issuing an invitation to trade at their various stores. With out exception, Edenton merchants and business firms are anxious for new business in the territory covered by this issue of the Herald and have made it possible to invite many po tential customers to come to Eden ton to trade. Edenton merchants in anticipation of an increased fall business have accordingly ordered a full line of the latest goods. Many of these items can be seen displayed in show windows, while counters and shelves are teeming with bright new stock that will be desired when once seen. Shoppers have an advantage in buying in Edenton due to the fact that the stores have capable corps of clerks who can attend to their wants in an efficient and courteous manner. But efficiency and courtesy are not X all. Edenton boasts of no officii community motto but if it did pick one out for the world to read it might use advisedly and with full propriety “et integra perpetua.” Broadly translated this means “honesty in all things” or, better still, “honest at all times.” For if there is one thing that Edenton’s merchants are proud of, prouder than the fine lot of goods ever on their shelves, goods compa rable with the stock in trade of cities a hundred times the size of this com munity, it is their business honor. Their standards of honorable deal ing center about the best obtainable anywhere at prices to fit any purse. Some town stores make a play of kowtowing to a type of exclusive trade. Not so Edenton. It has what you want when you want it, and you are as welcome as the flowers of May with a dollar or a hundred dol lars in your pocket. Edenton is a de mocratic town, capitalized and un capitalized, and a broad spirit of geniality awaits customers every where whether on a shopping tour of examination or a tour of spending. It would be false to say, however, that Edenton merchants are indiffe rent. They are out after business but they are not after it at the ex pense of the future. They seek satis fied customers above all else, for a satisfied buyer is a store’s best ad vertisement. Visitors from nearby sections of adjacent counties can always be counted upon to receive fair and im partial treatment in the shops of Ed enton, and go home afterward know ing that “et integra perpetua” means something real on this side of the Chowan River.

STORAGE COMPANY Herewith is seen the present warehouse of Leary Bros. Storage Com pany at the North end of Broad street- The concern, of which J. Clarence Leary and West Leary are proprietors, was started about two years agcv and has increased its volume of business so rapidly that another warehouse is now in the course of construction on the site of the old Edenton Lumber Company. They specialize in storing peanuts and cotton and also buy pea nuts, soy beans and country produce. They also sell fertilizers, seeds and peanut bags, as well as have a fleet of dependable trucks for hire. Craven Test Indicates New Fertilizer Method Two demonstrations conducted in Craven County indicate that fertili zer applied to the winter cover crop preceding com will give better re sults than fertilizer applied directly to the com. In both demonstrations Austrian winter peas were sown last fall and turned under for corn In the spring, reported E. C. Blair, extension ag ronomist at State College. On certain plats in each demon stration approximately 400 pounds of fertilizer containing 10 per cent phosphoric acid, four per cent potash, and no nitrogen were applied to the acre before the peas were sown. No fertilizer whatever was applied to the com which followed the cover crop of winter peas. On five other plats, no fertilizer was applied to the peas, but 400 pounds of 0-10-4, 400 pounds of 1-8-5, 200 pounds of 2-10-4, 200 pounds of 16 per cent superphosphate and 200 pounds of colloidal phosphate respectively were applied to the corn per acre. - - "« Although definite results cannot be announced until the com is harvested, Blair stated that already it is clear ly evident that the best yields will come from the fields where all the fertilizer was applied to the winter cover crop. He also pointed out that fertilizer applied to the cover crop does double duty, since it causes the cover crop to produce a better yield as well as the corn or cotton which follows. - f HAVE YOUR CAR t CHECKED OVER BY OUR t EXPERT MECHANICS f THEY KNOW HOW | LUBRICATION | and I Washing Service f< SECTION TWO
