Many soils in Chowan County
are low in one or more of the plant
nutrients needed for high forage
production, according to County
Agent C. W. Overman.
In view of this, he advised farm
ers planning to seed pastures this
fall to have their soil tested now
ymd, after receiving their soil test
•. reports, to lay in the right amounts
of lime and fertilizer they will need
to build up the short elements.
“Studies by the North Carolina
Experiment Station,” Overman con
, tinued, "illustrate what happens
when you fail to 'lime and fertilize
pastureland properly. Widely vary
ing yields of dry Ladino clover hay
were obtained from a field that
was low in lime, phosphorous and
potassium when different combina
tions of these three plant-nutrient
elements were applied.
, “Additions of lime, phosphate
and potash brought a yield of 6,-
103 pounds of dry hay an acre.
Phosphate plus potash gave only
2,607 pounds of hay. Lime and

phosphate resulted in a yield of
8,274 pounds, while the combina
tion of lime and potash gave only
1,031 pounds.
“Leaving out any one of these
materials reduced the yield from
one-hnlf to one-fifth of that which
was obtained when all of these ele
ments were applied.”
Overman urged Chowan county
farmers to take soil samples early
and send them to the Soil Testing
Division, State Department of Ag
riculture, Raleigh. Results of the
laboratory tests, together with
lime and fertilizer recommenda
tions for particular fields, will he
mailed to farmers—“all for free.”
Soil sample boxes and instructions
can b«y obtained from the county
agent’s office in Edenton.
Accurate Estimate
Os Taxes Is Urged
Under GI Program
Lenders and builders in the GI
loan program should make sure
tiiat reasonably accurate tax esti
mates are given to veteran-buyers
and reported to the Veterans Ad
ministration, VA announces.
In some areas of the country,
according to the agency, lenders
and builders have erroneously esti
mated the real estate taxes and
special assessments when negotiat
ing with veteran-buyers and when
submitting loan applications or
loan reports to VA.
Through this practice, VA said,
the veteran-homeowner is faced
with meeting a substantially highet
monthly payment shortly after ,
closing the loan than he originally
was informed he would have to
pay.
In some cases this increased pay-'
ment is so much higher that, if it
were known prior to approving the
loan, VA would have rejected the
application because of insufficient
income.
The loan also might he placed as
jeopardy due to the borrower’s in
ability to meet the increased pay
ment, VA added.
VA believes it is the duty of
lenders and builders to make accur
ate estimates of real estate taxes
and assessments, even though the
exact amounts are not known a!
the time the properties are sold.
Accurate estimates may he obtain
ed by making inquiry of local tax
ing authorities and by comparing
similar properties in the locality,
VA said.

The superintendent reported that
a contract with R. K. Aiken, Jr., to
make tile school audit for 1956-56 j

'post, and also a contract price for

ence in cost for a complete instal

adopted authorizing the superin
tendent to contract for a complete
installation of the fence.
