A larger pipe had to be installed at a lower elevation where one of the ditches crossed the high way, in order to get the neces sary depth for the drainage. The highway commission installed the larger pipe at a lower ele vation according to plan for Mrs. Jordan. This is only one of the many jobs the highway commission has performed for the landowners in the county. Pooling Their Resources Construction hq sbegun on the ; Gum Pond-Harris Landing Group 1 Drainage Canal in the Rocky Hock section of the county. This| canal will be over a mile in I length and will improve the ■ drainage on a number of farms ' in the area. Landowners par ticipating in this project are Sherlon Layton. K. L- Perry, C. A.

Harrell Group Project, which will include over a mile of excavated channel and will also improve drainage on several farms. The highway commission ! is cooperating in this project by installing larger culverts at a lower elevation. A'CPS cost sharing is being received on thc-'e group jobs. Group projects are often the only means by which landown THE CHOWAN HERALD, EDENTON. NORTH CAROLINA. THURSDAY. OCTOBER 11, 196?. ers can obtain adequate drain age for their property. Where] they can be worked out they us- j ually pay for construction cost within a short period of'time. Winter Protection Harvesting of peanuts is in I full swing now and that is go i ing' to leave a lot of land in the county bare unless it is seeded to a cover crop. This peanut land is some of the best and, most important we have. It surely deserves the best protec tion we can give *ll—to protect it from erosion and soil compac tion resulting from winter rains. Most any small gr&in will make ia good cover crop if seeded now. On the lighter land in the coun ty about 20-30 pounds of vetch mixed with small grain will add badly needed organic matter and 'build up the fertility level since vetch is a legume. The cover crops that have been put in al j ready are looking good. | If you can’t seed but so many ■ acres of cover crop each year, seed the peanut and cotton land first and just shred your corn stalks on the surface. A disking just heavy enough to get the stalks down on the surface will do an excellent job of protect- I ing the land if you do not have : a rotary mower. These stalks ; will rot just as fast on most soils on the surface as they will disk :ed under.
