Forest Fire Control
Is Considered By
Agriculture Board
Two Demonstrations In
County Planned In
Near Future
At the monthly meeting of the
Chowan County Board of Agriculture |
held in County Agent C. W. Over- 1
man’s office Friday night, J. B. Hub-j
bard, district forester, was present |,
and discussed the benefits that might
be derived by the county participat
ing in the forest fire control program.
Though there were few members of
the Board present, it was agreed that j.
the people in the county should be-j
come more acquainted with the for
est fire control program and deter-j’
mine whether or not they want the j
county to participate. It was pointed
nut that during the past two years |
heavy rains have unfortunately dam- j
aged crops considerably, but at the,
same time forests have been greatly ]
benefitted by the rain preventing
fires.

That’s all there is to it. Just those good U. S.
Savings Bonds bought regularly— and earning in- A
terest as sure as school keeps. And because there’s
a nice cash reserve for emergencies, if you should 1
need a lump of money, you can get it in minutes.
How You Buy Bonds AUTOMATICALLY! C
Two sure-fire methods. Even more than methods 1
i —two positive plans!
One—if you’re on a payroll, you buy Bonds \
through the Payroll Savings Plan. Millions of 5
people have saved billions of dollars this way. *
Two —if you’re not on the payroll but have a
1 checking account, you buy Bonds at your bank A
1 through The Bond-a-Month Plan. Just one trans- 7
action needed. Your banker will give you the I
word on this wonderful new savings system. I
For your sake and ttt your country’s, don’t A
i wait. Begin buying Bonds now through one of ?
r these plans. ' #
