LackDf Manganese
Shows Mp In Crops
Tests Are Conducted
By Soils Division
Representative .
Manganese deficiency is showing
up particularly in peanuts and soy
-beans in many fields in Chowan
County, according to County Agent l
C. W. Overman. Teats conducted
by Dr. Adolph Nehlich of the Soils
Division Iqet year showed reduc
tion in yield of peanuts as much as
500 pounds per acre and in soy
beans as mueh as six or more bush
els per acre.
Chowan farmers who have this
appearance in their peanut and soy -
bean fields may contact the county
agent. As far as possible, he will
visit the field and determine if
manganese deficiency is really the
trouble.. The county agent will be;
glad to assist growers in orJoiing
the chemical from a distributor in
Raleigh.
Dr. Nehlich is conducting several
tests in Chowan County and in
neighboring counties to learn more
about how this problem may be
most easily solved. 'The chemical
may be mixed with the fertilizer
another year and applied to the soil
for greater efficiency, Overman
says.

AMERICA
mm
America by 1975 will be a land in
which business expenditures on
plant and equipment probably will
be about double what they are to
day.
The National Association of
Manufacturers cites a 1954 study
of the Joint Committee the Eco
nomic Report (Federal) which dis
cusses this expected development:
The report, taking 1965 as a goal
year, says in part:
"... Business expenditures On
plant and equipment are assumed
to amount to S6O billion per year
by 1965 compared to S3B billion in
1953 . . . This probably implies a
more rapid annual rate of moderni
zation of productive facilities than
now prevails and probably a con
siderable opportunity jto (decentra
lize or dispense in both as
a means of reducing the vulnera
bility qf our industrial plants in
case of war and as a contribution
toward improved working, travel
ing, and living conditions for em
ployees.”
DR. McGUIRE ON VACATION
Dr. B. B. McGuire, district health j
officer, will not be in the various’
health offices for four or five I
weeks. |

' SERMONS |gjfl
TEXT: “Forgetting a wrong is
mild revenge.” -—Anon.
j
Sitting in a park one afternoon,
two housemaids were discussing
their employers. One of them re
marked,
“Oh, my missus is fine, but her
husband is very cross.”
“He is?” questioned the other
girl. “What do you do about it?”
“Oh, I get even with him,” said
the first maid, “Every time he
scolds me, I put starch in his hand- j
kerchiefs.” |
It is human to give some thought
to revenge, yet one who devotes
more than a passing thought to
Hybrid Corn Average I
Reaches High Level
According to a report just releas
ed by the North Carolina Crop Re
porting Service, 70.5 per cent of
the State’s 1956 corn crop was ;
planted with hybrid seed. In terms i
of land area this amounts to 1,- i
] 418,000 acres which is 9.6 per cent '
’ greater than the 1,294,000 acres
l planted with hybrid seed in 1955. j
| The hybrid acreage last year
“getting even” shows himself to
be insincere, unsure of himself or
: his position. .
The dictator must have revenge
on anypne who dares to challenge
i his authority. The child “gets
■ even” with an adult or another
, child who appears more important,
j Weak people try to “save face”
by hurting pr humiliating others.
Strong, secure people do not need
to prove their strength or securi
. *>'•
! ' Remember, when you hear some
j one say that he is going to “get
! even” or has obtained revenge, you
! are hearing the voice of a weak, un
sure person who is trying to make
you think that he is important.
: amounted to 60i5 per cent of the
totalr
Though acreages planted to hy
brids have mounted steadily during
the past ten years, they took or
added emphasis during 1955 and
1956. As late as 1949, less than
j one-third of the State’s crop was
I hybrid, and it was not until 1954
I that the proportion approached the
' half-way mark at 46.5 per cent.
The next year, however, the pro
! portion jumped 1-1 percentage
points and this year it jumped 10.
