AROUND THE FARMS’ IGShI.N CHOWAN COUNTY By C. W. OVERMAN. Chowan County Agent i- ■■■ i -- J The Cotton Insect Situation looks very good at the present time. On Friday and Monday, eleven fields scattered over Cho wan* County were surveyed. There were no punctured squares or weevils found in three fields, six -of the fields contained 1% punctured squares, one field contained 2%, and one field in Ytopim community con tained 15% punctured squares. According to this survey there is no need to begin dusting this week. I would like to urge each cotton grower to examine his own field carefully. Examine 100 squares scattered over the field, only one square at each f&ep H X<rEm.. 1,000-Mile Lubrication!

Mr. [Rogerson is thinking of con- I Strutting a pit to catch the whste I from his platform, then the waste can be spread on the -land for its fertility value. Mulch Planted Crops appear to be comling up to a good stand. The growers on whose farms mulch planting demonstrations were conducted have been for tunate .in that some showers fell to give more moisture for seed gemination. Soybean and Grain Sorghum Demonstrations were planted with Tom Asbell on the E. L. Winslow farm near Cross Roads last Friday. These were plant ed on land following small grain harvest. The soybean variety tert dem onstration contains four varie ties Ogden, Hood, Experiment Station No. D 53-526, and Lee.

J does not necessarily rest on its acknowledgement of God, nor does this indicate that a nation is specially favored by God. Nazi Germany had once great power. It led her into dangerous policies, and, in the end, did not save her from an ignom incus de feat at the hands of nations who were willing to fight for what they believed was right. Moses had some things to say ■to his people that relate to this question of might and size. In stressing that Israel was a holy, chosen people, he pointed out that it was not selected -for its size, but because God loved Isra el and chose it of his own accord. Moses emphasized that the pur pose of the Law is to preserve the life brought into being by re deeming grace. The act of God's grace is kept permanent by con tinued obedience—not blind obed ience, but a steadfast loyalty. In the times which confront us today, as a nation, when we look at ourselves honestly and objec tively, do we see a nation whose trust is in God, whose primary reliance is on integrity and spirit ual power? Or do we see a na tion whose primary reliance is on military might, the atom bomb, and the H-bomb, backed up by the race to arm with nuclear weapons? Wherein lies our trust? Where does God fit into our thinking in all this? - ’' Is he just a last resort to whom we turn after we have exhausted our own resources, failed in our own strength? How do we reconcile ■' ) * - K : i —Schenleu RESERVE | SOSO & rm $095 . sj fifth \:. | -.v : - : ' • * ■ .■• i ■' -the word* "In God We Trust” I with toe way we are acting, and with what we are prepared to do to the peoples of other na tions if war should come? Surely our real strength is not found in material things—though it may be reflected in what we DO with material things. Al though many people today speak as if the Christian way Os life and the American way of life were one and the same things, we know that nearly half of our people belong to no church. Yet -the sovereignty of God is funda mental in every aspect of per sonal and social existence. We came into being only because of God and his creative purpose. We continue to live because of the laws by which he governs his amazingly dependable universe. Let us Cherish this great gift of life and seek to enrich all our relationships with an awareness of God’s active concern and con stant presence. Only if we do -this can we, as a great nation, light the way of his troubled world which looks to us for lead ership into the paths which God ‘intended his children to follow.
