The 733 acres' of woodland was divided into six fields, to assist Mr. Matre in managing his woodland. Each field will be written up to in clude the necessary managerial practices needed to bring his woods into production. Some of the fields needed thinning using the D 6 spacing. (D 6 is the dia meter of the tree at 4b feet above the ground 6 feet). Others of his fields needed the “weedy” hard woods poisoned to get back into production of loblolly pine. Fire lanes were planned for all fields to protect the woods from fire. This type of planning service is available to all Soil Conservation District Cooperators. R. F. Jordan of Qliden is com pleting his tile • drainage system this week. He has installed 3,100 ft. of 6-in. drain tile using the open outlet ditch he dug last summer as an outlet. This is part of his water and soil conserva tion plan with the Albemarle Soil Conservation District. Isaac By rum installed 1,400 ft. of 5-in. drain tile completing a tile sys tem he started in 1916.

Recognition was given to leaders and parents. FourrH Club members decided they would take the responsibili ty of getting their home yards clean as part of their observance of National 4-H Club Week. Here are some suggestions for the entire family in your spring clean-up: Now is the time to clean up and throw out unnecessary trash and junk that accumulated dur ing the winter months in the house, attic, yard, barn and out buildings. The home and its surroundings is judged by the picture it makes and the story it tells to the people who pass by. It tells the type of citizen you are.

The daughter in the family can assist mother in cleaning win dows, Venetian blinds, bureau drawers, dresser mirrors, the mantle piece and the beds. The son can assist the father by keeping the wood pile high and neatly arranged in the back yard. He can learn to trim the hedge, plant the lawn, help clean out the barn, take up old stumps, move unnecessary rocks, clean up the paper, tin cans, bottles, weeds, etc. He can rake and pile up all leaves and put them down at the end of the lot where they can stay until they rot, and they can be used later to enrich the soil lor the flowers or family gar den.

Chowan Clubs Join In Celebration Os 4-H Club Week Nearly 300 Chowan County 4-H Club members joined 150,000 oth- 1 er North Carolina Club members,! who in turn joined 1,500,000 oth er 4-H’ers throughout the nation in the observance of National 4-H Club Week, March 1-8. The theme was “Keep North Carolina Beautiful,” with special emphasis being on highwayys. Local and school clubs held special meetings and local clubs sponsored a “Clean-up” campaign along Chowan highways and sec ondary roads. The Oak Grove Local Club met on Friday, February 28, to make plans for the observance of National 4-H Club Week. Three team captains were appointed to coordinate the efforts in cleaning trash and rubbish from the pub lic roads in the Oak Grove com munity. Edith Jean Nixon, Betty Jean Smith and Joe Nixon serv ed as team captains, with each one having a specific area of road from which to remove the trash and rubbish. Each of the cap tains expect to have his section of road cleaned before the next local 4-H Club meeting. A report on the progress along with a list of workers will be given at the meeting. It is the duty and re sponsibility of the team captains to get a pick-up truck and driv er or a tractor and trailer, and to notify their workers when to meet to do the job. Kenneth Ray Layden served as team captain fo r the Gliden Lo cal 4-H Club in its “Clean-up" campaign. Ronald Perry served as team captain for the Advance Local 4-H Club. It is estimated that the state spends $200,000.00 annually to clean up litter which is strewn by careless motorists. Therefore the efforts of our 4-H Clubs in cleaning up highways should be of great value to all citizens. Other ways in which Chowan 4-H members observed National 4-H Week were by distributing “Grace Songs” to local resaurants, had a chapel program at Eden ton High School, prepared bulle tin boards at local schools, and placed posters at prominent plac es in the town and county. —£dienfei| / J $o 95 04/5O 4/5 QT SCHENtEV 01 STIIIERS CO..
