PAGE TEN Boundaries Are Set For Hatteras Park Area WiHße the First Federal Seashore Park Boundaries of the proposed Cape Hatteras National Seashore Recrea- 1 tional Area on North Carolina’s Outer Banks have been agreed upon. The area, which would be the first federal seashore park, covers rugged country which offers excellent fishing and water fowl hunting. The boundaries extend on the north from Whalebone, three miles south ' of Nags Head, to the southern tip of Ocracoke Island. Areas around the Banks villages are exempted to permit expansion to provide facilities for tourists and sportsmen. The boun daries were recommended by the Nat ional Park Service and accepted by the North Carolina Cape Hatteras Sea shore Commission. Ttye Park Service specified that the area must include a minimum of 33,- 000 acres. Already the North Caro lina and Federal governments own 12,000 to 15,000 acres within the boundaries. Surveys will determine what land must be acquired and what, the actual acreage of the recreational, area will be. The committee plans to! report to the full commission by De cember 1 on the estimated cost of ac quisition. The next step would be for the commission to ask Governor Scott and the North Carolina Council of State for supplementary funds to cover the estimate. These funds would be turned over to the National Park Service, which would proceed with the acquisition. Extreme Care Needed In Harvesting Cotton To bring top prices, cotton should not only be picked clean and picked only when dry, but it should also be kept dry and carried to the gin dry, says David H. Stancil, cotton mar keting specialist for the State College Extension Service. Stancil believes Tar Heel farmers should be very careful in harvesting and selling their cotton this year, es pecially since the 1950 State crop is one of the shortest in history. Many farmers have the idea that gins equipped with driers can handle cotton in any condition. This is not true at all, says Stancil. The driers do wonderful work within certain lim its, but if cotton is really wet it often has to be put through the drier twice and even then does not come out completely dry. This slows up ginning and costs money. It also tempts the ginner to run his heat up, which often causes damage to the fiber of the cotton. Farmers will make money every time by keeping their cotton dry. Already a farmer in the southern part of North Carolina has picked some cotton so trashy that its value, even after going through a modem BEAUTY - WISDOM CAN BE YOURS SAYS EXPERT You can learn how to use new hair tints, how to erase forehead wrinkles, and many other aids to glamor as Sally Young, beauty expert, reveals the latest tips.

The fine new gins which have been erect ed in North Carolina almost perform miracles in cleaning. However, says Stancil, even with al lthis equipment, ginners cannot possibly turn out a sample as clean from dirty, trashy cotton as from cotton brought to them clean. At present high prices, a farmer may easily lose $25 a bale by having his cotton picked trashy. Closer su pervision of pickers, with premiums for clean picking, would pay in nearly every case. Road Assured For Pea Island Refuge The North Carolina State Highway and Public Works Commission has bee nassured by Congressman Her bert C. Bonner that there will be no delay in securing a right-of-way to construct a highway through the Pea Island Refuge in Dare County. Mr. Bonner conferred with heads of the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service Friday morning. He later notified N. C. Highway Commission Chairman H. W. Jordan that the right-of-way would be secured to meet any schedule the State required. The game refuge is in the proposed path of a highway being constructed on North Carolina’s Outer Banks. ,1 HEALTH FOR AU I i THE TYPES OF TUBERCULOSIS When we hear of tuberculosis, we usually think of “pulmonary tubercu losis” or tuberculosis of the lungs—the most common form of the disease. Pulmonary tuberculosis accounts for the great majority of the approxi mately 45,000 deaths annually from tuberculosis in this country, yet tu berculosis can attack almost any or gan of the body, the bones and joints, and the skin. One type of tuberculosis, that of FWWi PEPLESS PETE ! When people feel like they nre tied to a log every time they try to do something, and their Pep is gone, the chances are it is due to one thing, namely: BLOOD POVERTY Your blood cells may be fagged-out or shrunken, and you might not rea lize it. Even if you eat the “best” foods you may not be getting all the good out of your meals simply be cause you have SLOW Digestion, without knowing it (or gassy stom ach) and as a result you are a victim of Blood Poverty! In other words, your blood is not getting the fullest good out of what you eat. So your blood-cells become worn-down and you have only half as much energy as you really need7 you get up in the morn ings still tired, and your nerves become dull. Hundreds here in Edenton suffered with “faded-out” blood and stomach gas until they got CERTA-VIN.

Weak, rundown people tell us they soon feel different all over. And best of all, our price on CERTA VIN is reasonable. You can actually take this New, modern medicine for only a Few Cents a Day! So don’t go on feeling half-sick and half-well. Get Certa-Vin at Leggett & Davis Drug Store. —adv. THE CHOWAN HERALD EDENTON. N. C., THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER 21,1950 . the bones and joints, which has left . many people crippled, has been almost ! completely eradicated in this country, i Most cases of that form of the di , sease came from drinking raw milk of , tuberculosis cows. Many of the vic tims who contracted the disease were children under five years of age. As a result of a campaign begun in ' 1917, bovine (cattle) tuberculosis has been brought under almost complete control in the United States. Cattle are tested for tuberculosis and slaugh tered if they show signs of the di sease. As a result, bone and joint tuberculosis is today almost unknown in the United States, although it is , prevalent in some other countries. Pas teurization of milk, which kills all germs, has been another factor in cut ting down the spread of tuberculosis from cattle to man. The two most acute forms of tu berculosis, which until recent years were always fatal, are tuberculosis meningitis and miliary tuberculosis. Tuberculosis meningitis, which strikes children most frequently, affects the meninges, or membranes around the brain and spinal cord. In miliary tu berculosisj, the tubercle bacilli are spread by the blood stream to various parts of the body where they cause tiny lesions about the size of a millet seed, thus “miliary” TB.

How . ever, even with streptomycin, not all cases of tuberculosis meningitis or miliary tuberculosis can be saved. Tuberculosis can and often does ' strike such organs of the body as the 1 eyes, the glands, and the genito- 1 urinary tract. Some of these types of i tuberculosis are frequently complica- 1 , tions of the pulmonary form of the ■ disease. A person can protect himself from . all forms of this communicable disease , by taking care of his health generally, i keeping up his body’s resistance against a damaging attack of TB . germs, and making certain that the I milk he drinks is pasteurized. He should also have physical check-ups i with his doctor, including chest X-rays (an aid in diagnosing pulmonary tu berculosis), at least once a year to play doubly safe.
