Let’s make it the best Chowan
County Fair yet.
Beware Os Molded Corn For
Hogs: Hurricane Donna put a
lot of corn on the ground. We
have had this condition before
and we had hog trouble. Dr.
W. M. Busey of the focal Swine
Diagnostic Laboratory, says we
may be headed for trouble
again unless we are careful.
Mold on corn produces a pois
onous toxin which may kill
hogs. Be sure damaged corn is
well dried before you feed it.
See Dr. Busey’s article elsewhere
in this paper.
Cattle Testing: Dr. G. S.
Bradshaw, Federal Veterinarian,
and Dr. L, A. Deese, local vet
erinarian, are in the process of
testing cattle in Chowan Coun

some are being tested for Tu
berculosis.
Cattle testing is for your
benefit, to keep disease free cat
tle and people. Please give the
veterinarians your cooperation.
We will try to notify you in'
advance when to expect one of|
them so you can have youri
cattle up and ready. j
Cotton: Cotton picking is
moving along very well. Thanks
for the good weather since Don
na. Pick it as clean as possible

I was by J. D. Ward’s gin last

all requests, Mr. Shaw reminds
applicants of the need to bring
with them itemized values of
their losses, including contrac
tors’ estimates of construction
replacement costs. It will also
be important to furnish all in
surance recovery data, if any,
in connection with each appli
cation.
All disaster loans made will
carry a 3% interest rate.
Although these loans can be
made for a period not to exceed
20 years, the actual maturity of
each loan will depend on the
borrower’s ability to repay the
loan, within a certain period
without undue hardship.
Individuals, home owners,
large and small businesses, and
charitable organizations will be
eligible for these loans if such
credit is not available through
normal lending channels.
Farmers and stock raisers are
not eligible and should apply
to their nearest Farm Home
Administration Agent.
The deadline for filing appli
cations as a result of Donna is
April 1, 1961. However, the
conveniently located temporary
disaster offices will be closed as
soon as the loan activity les
sens. After that, all applications
must be filed with SBA’s Char
lotte Branch Office.
Manager Shaw expresses the
hope that all storm victims will
feel free to consult with any
members of his staff on matters
pertaining to their eligibility for
this disaster assistance. 1
