THE FARMS BgjlN CHOWAN COUNTY I By C. W. OVERMAN, Chowan County Agent sat'f l . _ j r.rrw 'W f T P. 4 Hog' Killing Time Is About Hare. Will your meat cure out >d keep properly? Will you produce high quality pork to use throughout the year? Here are some points which may help you: •vUse a meat type hog that Weighs between 200 and 220 pounds that "is about six months old. Kill the hogs in late af ternoon. Allow them to hang overnight and thoroughly chill out before cutting. Do not get hogs excited before killing. Be sure t.he hogs are bled properly for better keeping quality. Following a recommended cur ing schedule for curing meat to prevent over salty meats. When meat is taken out of cure, hapg it in a fairly dry, cool place. Be sure to bag hams and should ers before the first of March to prevent insect damage. You will likely freeze several cuts of meat. Don’t overload your freezer. Put in not more than ten percent of your freez er capacity in any one 24-hour period. If you have more than that at one time, take it to a freezer locker plant and have them freeze the excess. Here are some Extension publications to help you. Ex tension Circular No. 287 explains proper “Knife Sharpening”. Ex tension Circular No. 262, “The Farm Pork Supply”, gives-you almost complete information on killing, curing and storing meat.. Extension Circular No. 405,! ‘’Curing Hams Country Style", gives you excellent information on taking care of hams and shoulders. Extension Folder No. J 34, “Cutting, Carving and Cook i ing Country Style Hams”. Cop ies of these are free at your! County Extension Office. The Chowan County Fair is i Over and most of the exhibits | reclaimed.

That could be of i to some industries, but it' ■is not the correct over-all answer. There are various reasons for taking this position. First, except in the case of in dividual commodities, the prob lem does not arise primarily from too many imports. Grant ed the number of these compet ing commodities is growing— and will continue to grow—the answer, nevertheless, must be found in more, not less, imports. Income instances it may be proper, perhaps necessary, to make an upward revision, of the (tariff, but that argument must be left to the individual indus tries immediately concerned. Foreign Trade Benefits Seiond, the greater the volume of foreign trade, the better it is for. Mth the United States and the wbrld as a whole. Raising reduces the volume of foreigh trade, and places other nation* at an increasing disad vantage. i Finally, as the leading credi tor nation of the .world, it is not proper fpr us to be a high tariff country. We must be ablp to meet our international balance of payments deficit in some other manner. f r How can we enlarge our vol i mjjjSßA II Bellows Partners Choice dmm ft \m, *2? *35.

We also compliment the American Legion for sponsoring the fair, and all of those who joined in making it successful. Rat Control can be most ef fective now. The storage barns, smoke houses, and other storage buildings are nearest empty just before harvest. The weather is getting cooler and rats are re turning to the buildings. The Extension Office and the County Health Office have a good supply of Warfarin bait for distribution. The bait is al ready mixed in packages. Each package contains instructions for using the bait. If you have rat problems around your home or farm, come get bait and use it now. To day, I noticed evidence that a rat has returned to my feed room. Immediately I put out some bait. It takes four to five days feeding on the bait to kill a rat. So, just put two to three tablespoonsful in a container at each feeding station. Check sta tions each day and add more bait as they take it. The Peanut Price Support Pro gram is provided for the bene fit of peanut growers. This ! week we are mailing to each peanut grower on our mailing j list a copy of the “1959 Peanut SuDport Price”. This leaflet, if studied care fully, will enable you to deter mine what your peanuts are worth when you have them graded. In the letter I am giv | ing you an example on figuring the price of an actual grade on j a lot of peanuts marketed in I 1958. I hope you will be able to use this information to good ! advantage. | ume of exports? That will re i quire a lowering of our prices j and that means we must reduce j the cost of production. Two I steps are essential to reduce the cost of production. First, we must give every pos sible incentive to American firms to modernize their plants and in stall the most efficient machin ery. Second, we must bring to an end the habit of raising wages every year. It is not necessary, and certainly it is neither eco nomically possible or desirable to reduce wages. But if we start to hold wages steady, and elimin ate feather-bedding, there will be a margin by which many prices may be reduced. This will not be true in every com modity, but it can occur in enough instances to strengthen our position in international trade, and confer great benefits upon the American public. This is not merely a matter of holding wage increases to "the I growth in output per man hour. When wages are raised by that amount there is no leeway for management to reducq prices. And since lower prices are es sential if exports are to be en larged appreciably, we must fol low a policy which makes pos sible and encourages the lower ing of prices. - Will Increase Purchasing Power THE CHOWAN HERALD, EDENTON. NORTH CAROLINA, THURSDAY. OCTOBER 22, 1959. MOMENT OF DEATH— Trapped beneath his overturned race car, Ed Elisian, of Fresno, Calif., is only seconds from death. An instant later, the vehicle exploded in flames, killing him. The accident happened during a 200-mile track race at State Fair Park. Such a program on wages will be opposed by labor leaders. This will be a serious mistake ,on their part. Holding wages steady does not mean that labor will not continue to improve its position. Quite the contrary. With the same dollar wage and lower prices, there will be an increase in the real purchasing power of the wages not just more dollars which buy less and, less. Simultaneously, of course, our government must continue work ing with other nations to get them to eliminate, or at least re duce, the tariffs, quotas and oth-. er hindrances to the importation 1 of American goods. There is j much room for helpful accom-1 plishment in this field. ‘ This covers only the trade part of our international problem. Equally important is the finan cial aspect. That will be cov ered next week. VWWWWW< RESOLUTION OF RESPECT North Carolina Chowan County.
