’ —SECTION two PAGE EIGHT SOL CONSOWOTBN HEWS By JAMES H. GRIFFIN. Soil Conservationist Now is the time to do that me chanical preparation for natural reseeding or planting of loblolly pines. This practice is used to; bring cut-over brushland back in- j to pine production. A large trac-' tor and heavy disk is used. Many Os you have seen lands owned by pulpwood companies treated this way. Cost of this preparation is about S2O-$25 per acre. Under the Agricultural Conservation Program a cost-share payment is made of $lO per acre or about half the cost. Stanley Blanchard of Route No. 2 has signed-up for, this practice. Several other dis- J trict cooperators have planned it in their conservation plans with I Taylor Theatre Edenton, N. C. THURSDAY.

This week, July 20-26, is Farm 1 Safety Week as proclaimed by President Eisenhower. Let’s all work with safety every day. L. C. Bunch, Chairman of the Al bemarle Soil Conservation Dis trict, is placing major emphasis on pond safety. Chowan County has about 100 ponds now. There is a great deal of danger in us -1 ing these ponds for swimming. , The sides are steep and the water deep and cold. Let’s be safe . . don’t swim in farm ponds.

ASC committeemen jhavO announced , that farmers may sign-up now for cost-share under the ACP pro gram. Practices include winter cover crop, pastures, open ditch drainage, tile, and woodland prac tices. A practice of special interest is the seeding of 30 pounds of tall fescue in your small grain this fall. After the small grain is har vested the fescue can be fertilized and grazed. Many farmers report good results especially when us ing tobacco behind the fescue in rotation. Carroll and Fahey By rum made 44 bushels of soybeans last year behind fescue.

Frank Skinner of Per quimans County is trying his first wheat and fescue in his crop rotation. The roots from the wheat and fescue improves the soil structure. This causes bet ter soil aeration and drainage. If you have stiff land and are using a small grain crop, try 30 pounds of tall fescue per acre mixed with your small grain seed. Both are seeded in the same operation. The ASC program will assist with the cost of this practice. Sign up now and try it. spread cornstarch or talcum pow der between the pages. Leave on for several hours, then brush off. Heat the room for several hours or days if necessary. 3. Wipe or brush mold from pa per with a clean soft doth. 4. If paper is damp, dry it first in an airy place. 5. If paper is washable, wipe it with a cloth wrung out of thick soapsuds, then with clear water. Upholstered Furniture, Mat tresses and Rugs— 1. Wipe upholstered furniture with a cloth wrung out of one cup of denatured alcohol (do not use rubbing alcohol) and one cup of water. Dry thoroughly. 2. Brush with a whisk broom out-of-doors, sun, and air. 3. Sponge mildewed rugs and carpets with thick soafc suds or a rug shampoo. Rinse with cloth dampened in clear water, and dry in the sun. Wood— 1. Wipe mildewed floors and woodwork with a weak solution of kerosene and water (or plain water and soap suds and dry thoroughly). 2. Do not try to force swollen boards in place. Contact your carpenter. Chemicals That Help Check your local drugstore, hard ware. or department store. 1. Calcium chloride, (place in closet) . When it turns to a liquid, get rid of it, end use additional calcium chloride). Buy at your local drugstore. ft. Use chloride of lime il your basement or cellar smells musty. Sprinkle it over the floor, when musty odor has gone, sweep, scrub, and dry the floor. If molds or mildew are allowed' to grow, they will cause a great deal of damage. Therefore, it will pay you to use care and not let clothing and household ar ticles mold or mildew without special attention. It will prove to j be very valuable and longer wear j may be expected from your per- 1 sonal articles. If you keep your things well brushed, aired, and sunned, it will be the first step in controlling mold or mildew in your home. Firecrackers Chase Crows Tom Asbell of the Center Hill community is convinced that crows don’t like firecrackers. For | several years he has used such] methods as scare crows, twine string, and other devices to pre vent crows from damaging his watermelons. • Some of his friends used fire crackers and a specially designed fuse rope for exploding the fire crackers. Since his friends got such good results Mr. Asbell de cided to try this improved meth-j od. When firecrackers are used they are fastened to the rope by their fuses. The rope is hung vertical ly and the lower end lighted. The time between explosions is con trolled by the disance which the firecrackers are placed on the rope. Mr. Asbell states that this method of preventing damage 1 from crows is somewhat expen sive. However, it is the most ef fective way he has found.

Let your little brother play with your mar bles.’t j ; t “But,” Johnny protested, “he wants to keep them always.” “Oh, I guess not,” his mother replied. “Well, he does, too. He swal lowed three of them already.” Some time ago a man who com mitted suicide wrote down his sensations while dying. At first he boldly vfrote his reasons for taking his own life. Gradually “Wisdom of the Ages” j Qt “Open yotlr book of friendship and strike a trial balance. Friendship is an interchange of ser- wJL vices and understanding.” THERE is a personal fulfill- vN W| Wyw'jP'T ment that is above financial consideration.

Finaliy he started a sentence “I ...... ” and his hand trailed off. Some might say the man never finished his sentence. Actually he did. That one word “I” told the entire selfish story. His thoughts were so fixed on himself, what he wanted, what he felt, what he thought, that he • must gratify a final selfish desire. A suicide may arrive at a men tal unbalance when the act takes place, but he traveled a road of self-interest to get there. All selfishness doesn’t end in physical suicide. Often it results in mental and moral suicide. Selfishness seizes man’s finest impulses and restricts them, con fines them, blinds them, strangles, them, kills them. By the way, what unselfish thing 'did you do today? Pago the Marquis of Queen* berry “I disapprove of all brutal sports, prize-fighting, angling—” j “Good heavens! How cars you name those two sports in the same breath:” ■ “Why not? Isn’t it the object of both pugilist and angler to land a hook in the jaw?” I^P— -•4sdM » J -9 I C* rs ' THOSE WHO USE XT, 1 GAYLY CHIME ‘'THIS SPECIAL GAS 1
