Here are some practical tips on making hot weather driving a real cool affair: Be on the road as early as pos ! sible. The dawn is the most beauti ! ful part of the day - and the cool j est.

The wed- | place Unemployment In State Is Easing Off Insured unemployment in North Carolina last month eased off from the May totals, but still was considerably higher than that of a year ago, the Employment Security Commission reports. In June, an average of 42,124 persons filed weekly claims for benefits, ESC Chairman Henry E. Kendall reported. While this was below May (45,700) it was a 12 per cent increase over insured unemployment in June 1956. The employment picture bright ened moderately in all industries during the month with the excep tion of textiles which saw its un employment totals increase over the May figures. The Commission noted an “en couraging” decline in hosiery un employment. Many manufactur ers feel, said the Commission, that the hosiery industry has “turned; the corner” and that better times j are ahead. June’s non-farm placements (12,316) varied little from May, but were almost 20 per cent below June a year ago. Farm place ments rose seasonally to 91,545, a big increase over the 19.903 place ments in May. At the end of the month, there j were some 22 registered jobseek-, ers for every unfilled opening in local offices. This compares with a ratio of 17 to 1 in June last year, the Commission said. Market Outlook For Beef Cattle The inventory of cattle on feed published by the Agriculture Marketing Service for July 1. 1957 showed an 8 per cent increase in the 13 major feeding states over July 1 last year. The report show ed that the increase in total num bers of cattle on feed were large ly long-fed cattle, with the num ber on feed over three months uo 12 per cent from last year. This increase in long-fed cattle is con centrated in the Corn Belt where as the increase in cattle on feed less than three months was re ported mainly bv western states. Guy R. Cassell. Marketine Spe cialist for the Agricultural Exten sion Service, reports that during the first half of 1957, fed cattle prices averaged between $2 and $3 higher than the first half of 1916. This resulted from a small er supply of beef marketed, a 1 slight increase in consumer buy ! ing power and smaller supplies of pork. Tiniber Prices Sa»d To Be Higher In Fall Timber growers who sell their sßwtimher in the fall receive more than those who sell at other times of the year. This is the conclusion reached bv Walter C. Anderson of the .Southeastern Forest Experiment Station at Asheville"from a study -of aiv-eight-year record of prices received for market timber in the Carolinas' timber growing areas. Just why the prices are high est in the fall is not entirely clear, since a number of factors influence log markets. The num ber of sawmillers competing for timber at an ygiven time, for ex ample, depends primarily upon farming activity, rainfall, and the condition of the timber market. Since many small sawmill op erators also farm, sawmilling ac tivity eenerally increases in the fall after crops have been har vested. This is normally the dri est season of the year as well as RESERVE SOOO 86 PROOF nip# f ft jHy 7H2 CHOWAN HERALD, EDENTON. NORTH CAROLINA. THURSDAY.
