New Year's Resolution For Wives Help Husband’s Heart Women can play an important | role in safeguarding the health j and hearts of their husbands in the year ahead, according to Dr. John B. Hickam of Duke, presi dent of the North Carolina Heart Association. Pointing out that the family breadwinner is more vulnerable to heart disease, Dr. Hickam to day suggested that wives follow these seven New Year's resolu tions to help their husbands to a i happy and healthy 1958: “I resolve that in 1958. I will — “1. Persuade my husband to stop worrying about ‘symptoms’ which may or may not indicate ht-.it disease, and to clear away doubts by consulting a doctor: “2. Serve food that will give proper nourishment without add ing excess weight, remembei ing that overweight overworks the heart; “3.

AROUND THE FARMS M CHOWAN ; By C. W. OVERMAN, Chowart County Agent ] Freezes May Have Damaged j Peanut Germination Extension and Research work ers are very much concerned over the damage possibly done to pea nut germination by the freezes. Dr. Moore is in the process of running quick tests for germina tion on peanuts affected by the freeze and is encountering the damaged results. The higher per cent of moisture in the peanuts at the time of the freezing weather increased the freeze damage. Where possible, growers should save or obtain their seed from peanuts picked before the freeze. This is the safest approach. Where seed are being saved from peanuts picked after the freeze, which means from now on, ex treme caution should be used to try to remove the freeze damag ed peanuts from the stack before picking. Freeze damaged peanuts will most likely be found.in the cap of the stack and on the east and south sides. Examine your stacks carefully to determine where the damage is. Remove the cap of the stack down for about 8 to 12 inches. Use a pitch fork or a rake, tear off the peanuts on the damaged side of the stack. Then pick the stack of peanuts except for the bottom 6 to. 10 inches leaving the bottom out to go with the other portions removed. This should result in seed peanuts rea sonably free of damage. But to be sure of germination, draw a half gallon sample of peanuts from several bags, take them to your county agent who will assist you with sending in for a ger mination test. The peanut crop is one of our main agricultural life lines. While, plenty of good peanuts are avail able now, they may not be avail able at planting time next spring. Poor germination of seed results in a poor stand, more grass and weeds to fight, and a poor crop yield. Now is the time for pea nut growers to hedge themselves against poor germination of seed. Your county agent is attending a special meeting relative to this problem, on Tuesday, December 31. As soon as possible we will give you further information on this situation. According to the newspaper, the government loan on peanut has been changed so that peanuts Best Wishes For A HAPPY NEW YEAR t From Our Directors, Officers and Staff 3 % Paid On Savings Accounts o ■ /.• ~ THE BANK OF EBGNTON EDENTON.

Naturally,] the higher the damage goes, ttyc i further the price drops. In pda- . nut stacks in the field at the-pres ent time, there are good I and poor peanuts. Before pick ing we recommend that you re move the cap fronv*the stack and also the bottom 8 to 8 inches be cause these are the areas of the stack which contain most of the damaged peanuts. Pick the caps and bottoms separately from the rest of the stack and market them separately. This is the recom mendation we have from our spe cialist and research workers! This recommendation is based on ac tual field trials on farms. Al though the damaged portion of the stack picked separately brought considerably less per pound, the big bulk of the stack containing the good peanuts grad ed well. This was compared with peanuts graded where the whole stack was picked together. The final return resulted in several cents per pound more on the av erage from the peanuts that WWfe separated. I realize that this is a lot of trouble, but we have encounter ed a most unusual weather situ ation. This we cannot help but with some care and some extra work we can get the most passi ble from what we have. Music is the only language in which you cannot say a mean or sarcastic thing. —John Erskine.
