TZ**™ ““ W ** Hughes - Holton Hardware Company Broad Street Edenton, N. C. . Garden Time I By ROBERT SCHMIDT It seems out of place to talk about irrigation when we are having plenty of rain. It reminds me of the story of the man who wouldn’t fix the roof of his house in fair weather because it wasn’t necessary, and when R rain- 1 ed he wasn’t able to fix it Rain or not, it is timely to discuss irrigation and prepare for it against the time | when we will need it Many vegetables attain high quality , when they make rapid growth and [ this is made possible by plenty of , moisture. •Good examples are the greens crops and other leafy crops. Two or three weeks of dry weather can check the growth of some vege- ' tables so they will-never recover and the result will be a tough, stringy ; and fibrous product It has been my experience that you cannot depend on natural rainfall if you expect to grow high quality vegetables. You should have an inch of rain fall each week or 10 days. When the 1 rain fails you the same amount of wa ter should be applied from other ! sources —a pond, well, stream, or city water supply. If the garden area is ' flat, surface or furrow irrigation may be used. If'not, one of the overhead 1 sprinkler systems may be used. The ' most popular and effective type is the one having a'short standpipe with a ’ rotating nozzle at the top. The water 1 is usually brought to it by pipe or 1 rubber hose. Expensive you say? Perhaps, if you think in terms of one year, but you will use the equipment over a number of years, and think of the veg etables and berries you will save by its use! A friend who has been sell . ing irrigation systems for commercial . operations in this State said that last ( year he sold more equipment for irri , gating pastures than for any other I purpose. If it is not too expensive for pastures, it' certainly is not too ex- I pensive for the vegetable garden ‘ which should furnish your table with 1 the best to be had.

MAY 17, 1281. ——^■—^— i E—— SOF POLICE j >E RAIL SAYS IGlaring headlights, a blinded driver —these words appear all too often on Edenton Police accident records. Let’s erase them with a little com mon courtesy in traffic. (Always dim your headlights, both when meeting and when overtaking other cars. A driver, blinded by oncoming head lights, might just as well be driving in complete darkness as far as his ability to see and avoid danger is concerned. And never, never try to “get back” at a “bright-eyed” driver by trying to overpower him with your own brights.) •Discourtesy plus discourtesy can easi ly equal a head-on crash.
