Advice Given
For Irrigation
Willie Joyner, who lives in the
Cannon’s Ferry community, is in
terested in an irrigation system
Which will be used for truck
crops. Since part of Mr. Joyner’s
land overlooks Chowan River, he
assumed that it would be cheap
er to pump water from the river
instead of digging a pond.
Mr. Joyner requested help with
his problem and Howard M. El
lis, in charge of agricultural engi
neering, Extension Service spe
cialist, visited Joyner. Ellis rec
ommended that Joyner dig a pond
to furnish water for his entire
operation. Some fields are a con
siderable distance from the river
and the high bank at the water’s
edge would make it very difficult
to get the irrigation pump to the
water, according to Ellis. He fur
ther explained that during an ex
tremely long dry spell such as
was experienced in 1957, the riv
er water might contain too much
salt to be used for irrigating
plants. When the wind is blow
ing in the exact direction to move
the water from the ocean, the salt
content of water can change in a
few hours according to Ellis.
If river water is used for irri
gation it should be first analyzed
to determine the salt content in
parts per million so that a farm
er will not damage his crops.
Since it is highly impractical for
a farmer to get an accurate a.naly-1
sis of the salt content of water 1
and since the salt content can!
change in only a few hours, Ellis
recommends that farmers use wa- I
ter from other sources if it is
available and practical to do so.
Mr. Joyner is fortunate in that
he has a good place to build an
irrigation pond. This location is
approximately half way between
the fields which he wants to irri
gate. Although there will be
some expense to digging a pond
in this desirable location, it should
furnish an excellent source of j
good fresh water for irrigation 1
purposes. Mr. Joyner is hoping (
to get started on his irrigation ,
project this year if possible. •

Sunday School Lesson
THE CHURCH ORGANIZES
FOR SERVICE
' International Sunday School
Lesson for January 2S, 1958.
Memory Selection: “Take heed
to yourselves and to all the flock,
in which the Holy Spirit has
made you guardians, to feed the
Church of the Lord which he ob
tained with his own blood.
—Acts 20:28).
Lesson Text: Acts 6:1-7;
Romans 12:3-8; Timothy 3; 5:17-22
This is the fourth lesson in a
series on the church in the mak
ing and it is concerned with the
organization of the church. There
are two schools of thoughts, and
many shades of thinking in be
tween, on this question.
There are those who think that
the church should be organized
and run from above, that is by
men, by humans, and there are
those who believe it should be
run and organized, in the name of
Jesus, but by and from below. By
using the word below, we refer to
the democratic characteristics of
the church, decisions by congre
gations, elections and other demo
cratic procedures, from the i
ground roots, from the believers |
themselves, so to speak.
,In Acts, chapter 1, we see that|
ah apostle was elected to take the
place of Judas Iscariot: “ . . . One
hundred and twenty persons took
part in the voting.” Therefore,

THE CHOWAN HERALD. EDENTON, NORTH CAROLINA, THURSDAY JANUARY 23 1958
from the beginning, the church
was not an organization run from
above, by one or a few all-power
ful men who were ostensibly act
ing in the name of God.
It is imperative in following the
procedure followed by the earli
est Christians of fellowship, de
mocracy and rule from below in
church organization, that some
carefully-planned system be fol
lowed. The church must com
bine unity and variety and to
getherness and individuality.
The church must bind together
those who believe and yet allow
them enough freedom to work for
truth and work in Jesus’ name to
better the lot of their fellow men
as best they can. But however
talented its individual members
are, the church must be organiz
ed efficiently or it will not accom
plish what it might.
One can live a good life, so to
speak, and not be very convincing
to others in the living of it—and
thus not contribute what he might
have. A church can stand for
the Christian life, and what is
moral and right, but it must be
organized and exert its strength
and influence to be what the
church of the early Christians
was.
Your church may not utilize all
of the individual skills and tal
ents that are possessed by mem
bers within it. Certainly there is
much leadership available that is
seldom utilized in most churches.
