No one wants to hear about your i troubles, or lis ten to a tale of your woes or aches or pains. So you’d just as well keep ’em to yourself,'and remember the old adage, what, can’t be cured must be endur ed in silence. HARRELL Some time ago I cut my right in dex finger, and as I do a lot of writing, both longhand and typ ing, it really cramped my style. I did a squawking and com plaining, until I ran across a newspaper story which told of a young girl who wrote with a pen cil gripped in her teeth. Paralyz ed most of her life, she taught herself 'to write in this manner, made “A” grades in high school, and was planning on attending SWINE PRODUCTION By J. B. SMALL, Negro County Agent It has been said to be suc cessful in animal 'production, one should start with the right kind of stock. I would- like to add ■too more things, one should ■upw a good management pro gram which would include proper feeding, housing and good sanitation and two, have a love for animals. I shall mention some of the good management practices. The matter of providing cool places for hogs during hot weather cannot be over-empha-i sized. It has been said that hot weather cuts a pig’s appetite and rate of gain. This can best be overcome by furnishing a food sanitary wkllcw. Such wallows are easier to keep clean if kept out in the sun with shade near by. This keeps the hog from j spending his entire day in wa-' ter. If .such a swimming pool is not possible, providing shade is the least you can do for the hot natured non-sweating pig. No farm aYiimal seems to suffer so much from heat as a hog. - There art ample evidences to prove that as' a hog’s panting goes up, his gaining rate in weight comes down. Market hogs on full-feed seem to suf fer more from heat than sows and pig|. The matter of Allow ing a good sanitation program should not be overlooked. Rules for maintaining healthy popula tion of animals are little differ ent frcjm those for keeping our human jfopulation healthy. The follbwing are some of the things that should be considered: 1. Clean drinking water should be furnjshed. When ani mals are forced to depend upon water from ponds in which other animals have>- been wading and cqntaminated with body dis charges they will not drink as much water as they should. This type of water often causes diseases. Water from most ponds can be made safe by fencing the pond and piping the water troughs below the dam. 2. Contaminated feed with body discharges should not be put before hogs. Animals should not be allowed to graze too long in one area. Avoid feeding hogs on grounds as much as pos sible. When f«fe*-,on ground, stomach worms may develop and other diseases and parasites. If fed In troughs, this will to keep down many pests and, too, less fepd' is wasted. 3. The quarantining of all sick animals is *an important factor as that of human beings. In this way the spread of dis eases can be lessened. It is im T poriant to remember this when new hogs are added to the herd. 4. Good drainage is needed for good sanitation. If old mud holes are filled or fenced off certain diseases would not be a problem. And, too, good drain age will destroy breeding places, of many insects, that may annoy* man’ and beast alike. 5.

Passing parade: Salvation Ar my lass With her tambourine so liciting donations. The Salvation Army is a concrete example of religion in action; in deeds, not words; in practice, not preaching. Yesterday—To tell the complete story of the famous Pony Express would require more space than I have at my disposal. But here are a few facts that may prove in teresting. First of all, the Pony Express was a private enterprise and not government sponsored, and was organized to link quick ly the fast expanding West with the East. This year, 1958, marks its 98th anniversary. Its route was overland from St. Joseph, Missouri, to San Francisco, Cali fornia, through the most rugged terrain the West offered. There were approximately 80 carefully chosen riders, armed with only a Colt and a knife, lightly equipped and mounted on the best horses parasites or disease germs. Dur ing the rest period, the pasture will be relieved of these pests by normal action of sunlight drying and lapse of time. 6. Insect control is also an other very important phase in animal health. There are many insects which are responsible for the spread of diseases, so a good program of controlling such insects as house flies, stable flies, ticks, gnats and other ex ternal parasites should be fol lowed to prohibit the spread of dangerous diseases. | HAYSEED { By UNCLE SAM A RISEN LORD “He is not here; for he is risen, as he said, Come see the place' where the Lord lay.” —Matt. 28:6.

But during that time, its riders cov ered over a half million miles, and wrote in courageous horse flesh and human endurance one of the most dramatic mail-carry ing episodes the world has ever known. Tomorrow —ln this space age of fantastic things unfolding daily before our eyes, it is everyone’s duty to keep himself informed on these fast-changing events. And one could do no fetter for a be ginning than to read the “Intro duction To Outer Space”, pre prepared for President Eisenhow er by the Science Advisory Com mittee, comprised of 18 of the nation’s leading scientists.

He bore his cross until he was physically ex hausted. His sufferings were un told. He gave his life for the sal vation of others. The new tomb jn which he was buried was made as secure as possible. Roman guards were placed there to guard it. The Roman seal placed upon it. To break this seal was punishable by death. A great earthquake shook the earth and Christ came back from the portals of the dead. Angels were seen at the tomb. Women came to embalm a dead Christ and found an empty tomb but a live Christ. Jesus declar ed that all power was given him in heaven and earth. The proof of his resurrection and power may be found in the live of his humble followers.

Human beings, for some rea son, seem more interested in the mistakes that others make. KNOW YOUR SOCUL SECURITY P. E. Bettendorf, representative of the Social Security Ad ministration, is in Edenton every Thursday at the North Caro, lina Employment Security Commission -in Cilisens Bank Building. Probably the most misunder stood part of the Social Security Act is the Disability program. This is particularly true with farmers. Farm people were brought un der social security beginning with 1955. The minimum requirements to qualify to have your disability considered is five (5) years work under social security. The law reads, “He must have worked for at least five (5) years in the ten years prior to his disability and | 1% of the 5 must have been with [ in the three years before his dis- I ability. All of this work must I have been in work covered by so j cial security”. I These requirements must be met before your disability may be considered. Since 1955 was the first year farmers were under so cial security, 1960 is the first year farmers can qualify to have their disability considered. (This is not true if an individual did some public work in ten (10) years prior to his disability). WASHINGTON REPORT Washington ln the coming weeks, all of us will be hearing more and more about the merits and demerits of foreign trade as the time draws near for Congress to make a decision about the fu ture of the Reciprocal Trade Agreements Act. Even though final action isn’t necessary until June, • bitter battle is shaping up over the for eign aid issue. The President has recommend ed that Congress extend the act for five years. The program gives the President authority to enter into trade agreements with for eign countries ,«nd reduce tariffs on goods coming into the United States. , The Reciprocal Trade- Agree ments Act has been a mainstay in our efforts to promote free trade 'among the free nations of the for the past 25 years. It has done a great deal to enable other nations to purchase more of our raw and manufactured goods, expand their own foreign sales and in general build up strong resistance to communism. In spite of the positive contri butions it has made, the program has certainly been abused in the past five years. The most seri ous mistake has been the fact that the Eisenhower Administration has used it as a tool of foreign policy rather than an instrument of economic development. In How Disabled Do You Have To Be? The disability must be so se vere that it prevents the person from doing any kind of substan tial gainful work. The disability must have lasted for at least six months and be of the type that is expected to continue indefinite ly. In other words, partial or temporary disabilities do not. meet the requirements of the law. Os course, the disabling condi tions must be proven by medical examinations and tests. The ap plicant submits the necessary medical evidence from the doc tors or hospitals of his choice. Where necessary, the Social Se curity Administration reserves the right to make further exami nations or tests. This medical evidence is con sidered along with other facts about the person—his work ex perience, training and education —in deciding whether he is or is not able to engage in substantial gainful activity. many cases, concessions have been made in the hope thev would make political friends for us abroad rather than for the pur pose of promoting trade. The concept of reciprocal trade is sound and businesslike, but President Eisenhower and Secre tary Dulles have tried to use it to buy off would-be enemies and calm down restless friends of the United States. The way the Jap anese textile import problems were handled is a perfect exam ple of this. Foreign trade always has been a major factor in our farm econ omy in North Carolina. It is still essential that we expand our for eign markets, not restrict them, in the future. While foreign trade has meant a great deal to our farm econo my, the way the Eisenhower Ad ministration has mis-used it, the TAYLORTHEATRE EDENTON. N. C.
