OVERMAN, Chowan County Asenl I —. —- r —■— - - -» : Mechanical Harvesting and Curing Peanuts: Peanut harvest- j ing .Will get under way this week I in lull swing. Last week 1 ex-j amined the maturity on several fields; Astor Perry, the Exten sion. Peanut Specialist, examined some with me, and concluded that- peanuts planted around the first; of may should be ready for harvest the latter half of this week and next week. We hope to get our all-practice demon strations harvested during this period as they were planted on May 6 and 7. Digging and windrowing should be done 4 to 6 days prior to combining, dependent upon the weather. If reshaking is ne cessary to remove dirt from the peanuts, this should be done within the first two days after digging. In combining the combine me chanical speed should be adjust ed to the condition of the vines. Tough vines require aggressive picker action. As vine condi tions change during the day, fiffiWttaasjß j ijjcl ThereVe Been Some Big Changes Made v ►The bus at the top was fine for 1938. It made frequent stops, operated on two lane roads, and encountered little traffic. » Today’s bus Is designed to run hundreds of miles without stops. Its motor is more powerful, yet quieter; and the coach is air conditioned, 1 rest-room equipped. :< But one thing is the same—the Trailways spirit of neighborliness and helpfulness to the traveler.

Proper curing is dependent upon the depth of peanuts in the bin, based on the moisture content, proper air flow, proper air temperature and avoiding an excessive temperature. As pea nuts are put into the bin, they I should be spread, especially if dirt falls in, so that the dirt will be continually dispersed over the | peanuts in the bin. There is no need to heat the air when the humidity outside is below 60%. Generally, there will be no need for heat on sunny days from about 9:00 in the morning until about 4:00 in the afternoon. A humistat, properly set, will turn the heat on and off at the . right time. The heated atr going to the peanuts should never be more I than 15% higher than the out- j side temperature, we recommend THE C»OWAN HERALD, EDEWTOtf, NORTH CMOLOIK. THURSDAY, OCTOBER lfr 1883. ~ . a difference of not more than 10 deg. or 12 deg. Peanuts should not be cured below 10% moisture. At the end ofc cur ing, peanuts at the top layer will have about 2% more mois ture than the bottom layer. The ' curing process must not be rush ed if good quality peanuts are to be the result and good quali ty is the thing that will keep us in the peanut business. Successful Apple Enterprise: Louis Winslow of the Chappell Hill Community, had his first sizeable harvest from his young apple trees this year. Mr. Wins low has approximately two acres set to apples of the Red De- I licious and Golden Delicious va rieties with enough Jonathans interplanted for pollinatiqn. | Mr. Winslow has done an ex cellent job on prun ing and spraying his trees from the beginning. This year he harvested some over 60 bushels of nice large, excellent quality apples. He says he sold most of them at the orchard, which is' at his place of business. He car . ried several bushels to chain stores as a trial and the chain ' stores were so pleased that they i kept calling for more. This is an example of what one new . crop can do in Chowan County.

Anything 1 less falls short of the ideal for : the home life of a Christian cul \ ture. Alcohol is an enemy of healthy living. Alcohol is a kill , er. It destroys the body, the 1 mind, human respectability, de j cency, and everything else which contributes to a wholesome so | ciety. Is it possible that we are being anesthetized by the cur- I rent slogan that alcoholism is a disease? Os course, medically ' speaking, when the unfortunate t victims of drink reaches the pa thetic stage of helplessness des ( ignated by the term ‘‘alcohol ism,” it is a disease; and it must be treated with all the skill of medical science. But again, venereal disease, alcoholism is a disease of Sin. Alcohol slows up the reaction time of the human body—and thus makes the drink er a menace in the operation of powerful machinery. It weakens his powers of moral judgment. It deadens his sense of decency. And eventually it destroys hu-' man personality until it is next to impossible to recreate a sta ble person. How badly are the concepts of Christian living needed here! Paul never understood the Christian life to be the function of other worldly, disembodied spirits. It was to be lived out within the rough-and-tumble struggle of a dirty world. And anything which impairs the phy sical strength of the Christian to that extent weakens the wit* ness for God. Disciplined living is the Christian way. Indulgence is the mark of the uncommitted life.
