Overman Releases
Garden Suggestions
County Agent C. W. Overman, this
week, released dm following sugges
tions relative to August gardens:
“Now is the time to begin prepar
ing soil for the fall garden. Broad
cast a liberal application of well
rotted stable manure or poultry
manure and add to this broadcast a
moderate amount of b-7-5 or 4-8-4
fertiliser. Plow the soil thoroughly
to pulverize the soil and work in the
fertiliser. Rows, not too high, may
he made for planting, although the
weather is yet dry.
“As soon as you have rain, rake up
the rows and plant the following
seeds: Beets, Carrots, Mustard,
Tender greens. Kale, Snap Beane,
Winter Spinach, Leaf Lettuce, Onion
Sets, Cotlards and Cabbage plants,
Turnips and Irish Potatoes.
“Unless you have a convenient way
of watering your garden, there is no
use to plant seed until it rains.
Prepare your soil now and be ready
to plant a good fall garden when
moisture is sufficient. A bountiful
supply of vegetables for the home
table means less doctor’s bills, a
healthier family, and a saving to the
pocket-book. Let’s plant for Vic
tory."
FIREMEN MEET TONIGHT
A meeting of the Edenton Fire De
partment will be held at the fire
station tonight Thursday- at 8 o’clock.
This will he pay-off night and Fire
Chief R. K. Hall urges every member
to be present.
two tire 6; F. J. Ward, farming, two
tires; C* J. Hollowell, farming and
fishing, two tires; S. S. Ross, saw
mill foreman, two tires.
New Sanitary Engineer;
Prohibits Sale Os Food
In Two Edenton Cases
T. W. Bivens, new sanitary engi
neer for the Bertie-Chowan Health
Department, is now inspecting cases
and other places handling food. On
Tuesday, the first day of his inspec
tion, orders were issued to Joe Habit
and Ed Habit prohibiting the sale of
food until their establishments com
plied with the N. C. State Case laws.
In order to operate, a case must
have a rating of at least 70, both
of the local concerns registering be
low that figure Tuesday.
Old Fire Bell May Be
Again Put In Service
An old bell which for many years
has been lying back of the Court
House may be of some use, because
of war-time conditions, having been
loaned by the County Commissioners
to the Chowan County Civilian De
fense Council. The bell was, for
many years, used as a fire alarm and
was stored back of the Court House
when the present fire alarm system
was inaugurated.
E. W. Spires, County Civilian De
, sense Chairman, requested the loan
i of the bell, which will be used for air
raid or black-out alarms in event the
electric sirens go out of commission
or the current is cut off. It is Mr.
Spires’ idea to mount the bell on the
water tank at the power plant.
