Rotary Hoe Setting and Opera
tion was demonstrated on two
farms Thursday. Those attend
ing were amazed at 'the fine
work the implement- did when
correctly adjusted and properly
operated.
The demonstrations were held
with W. H. Roberts of Enter
prise Community and Paul Ward
of Ryland Community. Exten
sion Agricultural Engineering
Specialists J. C. Ferguson and
John Glover assisted us.
Joseph Roberts of Creen Hail
had discarded his tractor-mount
ed rotary hoes because 'he could
not get them to work right.
W. H. Roberts had unsuccessfully
(tried his rotary hoes and had
taken them off. J. B. Byrum
Aof Ryland Community had dis
carded his rotary hoes.
After the demonstrations, each
df these fellows mounted their
rotary hoes properly and began
doing excellent work. On Fri
day, I assisted W. E. Bond of
Enterprise and J. B. Byrum of
Ryland in properly adjusting
their equipment. I understand
that many farmers in Chowan
County have .rotary 'hoes but
don’t use them because they
don’t know how.
The rotary hoe is an excellent
implement for peanuts, soybeans,
corn -and many other crops.
When properly adjusted and op
erated, they will eliminate much
hoe work. If you have rotary
hoes and don’t know how to
use them, let us know and we
will be glad to help you. Just
call on us.

There’s always a general com
plaint about lack of entertain
ment or things to do in our area,
particularly for the youngsters.
One of the main reasons? Check
the county license fee for hold
ing such, as a dance. Wow!
The Communist party in New
York City has written to all of
the radio and television stations
there requesting rates for adver
tising on the air. So far; not
one station has replied so, as
of this writing, the Commies
won’t have a chance to spew
their venom over the airwaves.
'Payola is still much in the
news, and I have a question.
On WCDJ, and for that matter,
on most stations throughout the
country, public service shows
are carried. These shows are
produced by all branches of the
i service, there’s one for 'the Treas
/ ury Department, one for the Na
'tional Guard, one for a certain
campaign being conducted in
one particular month, etc. These
carry these programs
because the Federal-GomfmHMea
tions Commission likes lots of
public service, see? Now all of
these programs employ the very
biggest names from the enter
tainment world. Invariably, they
will plug their latest record or
movie. Os course, they give
their services to their particular
governmental organization for
free. Well, now, my question
is this? If that’s not payola,
Whotizzit? Right now it looks

Watermelon V/ilt is Showing
up in many fields. This season
seems to be very favorable for
the disease to work. There is
not anything we can do about
the wilt disease except plant re
sistant varieties and use as wide
rotation as possible.
Charleston Gray is a good wilt
resistant variety. Yet, I have
found some wilt in Grays this
season. Just rememiber, they are
not immune but are resistant and
some wilt can appear in them
if the disease is strong in the
soil and -the season is favorable.

Exciting Space
Travel Sh ow Now
At Planetarium
“Life on Other Worlds,” an
exciting space travel show for
the entire family, is now being
presented at the Morehead
Planetarium in Hill.
The 1960 summer time spec
tacular includes rocket flights
and landings on both Mars and
Europa and zoom trips through
space via another sun and the
hypothetical planet of Oz.
Describing the production, Di
rector Anthony F. Jenzano said
that “new colorful panorama and
exciting effects are combined
with fantasy and positive scien
tific fact to survey the possi
bilities of life- on worlds other
than our own. They also fore
they journey into the deep outer
cast what men may expect as
space.”
Also being seen for the first
time is the far side of the mooh,
as photographed by the Russian
satellite Lunik HI. The scienti
fic magazine “Sky and Tele
scope” made the photograph
available to the planetarium for
this program. The Buhl Planet
arium -at Pittsburgh has permit
ted the reproduction and use of
its multi-colored panorama of
Europa, which is the satellite of
Jupiter.
“Life on Other Worlds” is giv
en daily at 3 and 8:30 P. M., on
Saturdays at 11 A. M., 3, 4 and
8:30 P. M., and on Sundays at

programs for groups of 75 to
500 persons will be scheduled at
other times by advance request.
Before and after the program

arium’s art and science galleries
and Sundial garden.

himself with a certain type of
life. He who lives by the fear
of the law alone is an inferior
person, as a person. Such a
man will not steal or commit ar
son, or any one of the other
deadly sins, because he fears the
consequences of the law if
caught. He commits no crimes
because of outer compulsions. A
good man, on the other hand,
will not rob for a vastly differ
ent motive; he has identified his
life with the moral life. He has

Our lesson in s elf-diselpline
must of necessity include the
problem of drinking, social or
otherwise. The truly disciplined
life cannot accept even a little
; drinking so-called “social”
drinking—but rather upholds to
tal abstinence. How many brok
en marriages, broken homes,
broken children and the subse
quent delinquency has alcohol
accounted for? The figures are
staggering. The thinking Chris
tian cannot help but take into
account what alcohol does to the
spirit. Anything that reduces
our inhibitions (our moral law
within), our level of intelligence,
or our awareness of the pres
ence and will of God is wrong.
That which would reduce Us to
the brute and degrade us—that
which destroys the ability to
reason—is wrong! We cannot
tolerate it: i,t is unchristian.
We cannot deny our respon
sibilities toward our fellow men.
We may not feel that we are

not deny the fact that we are
our brother’s brother! Christians
