That's because die basic rules of human sanitation are presently being met. In the May issue of Sports Afield Magazine. lav Yeager tbscusses a few principles governing waste and garbage disposal. In die camps of hunters, fish ermen and families, the first thought should be directed to ward safe disposal of excretory wastes.

Under such cir-i cumstances it is good insurance l to make repairs, disinfect or move to safer ground. Under big-woods and wilder ness conditions, the shovel is the standard disposal tool. In back country camps a shovel with a roll of toilet paper slipped onto the handle is a common sight; and safety in disposal, with this simplest of all methods, mere ly requires the lifting of a few shovelfulls of earth and replac ing it after use. A more satisfactory disposal system, especially for groups spending a week or more in camp, is the field latrine. This is the standard disposal method in military bivouacs, and con sists merely of a trench dug in the ground with the loose soil banked at one side. The “slit" need not be more than a foot wide, or two feet deep: it may be of any length. In all cases toilet paper should be kept at the site, on a small i stake or on a six-inch spike driv-1 hi vertically into a stump or at THE CHOWAN HERALD. EDENTON. NORTH CAROLINA. THURSDAY.

Fly protection on and about cooking and eating areas in camp can be simple and effec tive. Food can be stored and served in covered utensils. Screened boxes or even cheese cloth will meet food coverage purposes, the latter without add ing bulk or weight in transpor tation. Tlie handling of garbage, in cluding dishwater, is also im portant in maintaining a clean, healthful camp. A garbage pit 100 feet or more from the tent door, properly covered and pre ferably exposed -to full sunlight, is a good solution. Don’t com promise on size; have it big and deep enough. One cubic foot per person per week, be ginning one foot below the ground surface, is a good rule-of thumb. Dogs are natural fly-attractors. jin any warm season. Sprays, | cleanliness induced by soap and water, and prompt disposal of droppings, meet the sanitation problem in a practical way. I Breaking damp provides the final test of the camper’s dis cipline out-of-doors. More often 1 tnan not camps' are broken hur jriedly, sometimes in the onrush jof darkness or even ait night Then, the temptation to toss garbage and tin cans aside is stronger 'than at any other time.' He who leaves an untidy, waste-j strewn campsite under such eir-j cumstances, however, far back, must be regarded as careless, or ignorant, or both. But the camper who makes certain that the latrine is closed, that gar-1 bage and tin cans are buried, and that the site is left neat and uncontaminated, not only demonstrates his responsibility outdoors, but leaves a safe and attractive place for the next camping party. Cash Receipts From Poultry Down 11% Despite an increase over 1958 in sales of poultry and eggs, North Carolina cash receipts for 1959 from these sources were down 11 percent. ’ Lower prices i for all commodities involved were responsible for the de crease. Greatest reductions oc curred through the sales of! broilers and eggs. Cash receipts | for broilers at $68,920,000 were I ■ down $9,256,000, while the $54,- I 005,000 received for eggs was down $7,381,000. Although 9,240,000 more pounds of broilers and 145,000,- 000 more eggs were marketed than in 1958, the average price of broilers per pound was off about 14 percent, while price of eggs per dozen was off 19 per cent.

Hens and pullets of lay ing age totaled 9,700,000 com pared with 9,830,000 a ’ year earlier/ ' Production per 100 layers dur ing April is estimated at 1,860 eggs compared with 1,908 in April, 1959. j HOME EC TEACHERS MEET The Albemarle Home Econo mics Teachers’ Organization met recently in Elizabeth City.
