CHOWAN COUNTY I yqX&r B» C. W. OVERMAN, Chowan Corutr Aganl Gross Farm Income Progress: In the “1.6 In ’63” Extension Program the increase tn gross farm income has made slightly below scheduled progress the first two years in the ten coun ty Albemarle Area. In 1961 goals set for increase in income was 16.8 million dollars by 1960. During 1962 and 1963, the first two years, the gross farm in come in the area has risen 5.9 million dollars. During the two year period nine of the ten counties have had an increase in annual gross farm income. In \ Chowan County our 5-year farm increase goal was 1 V-r mil lion dollars. Our 1963 » gross '■ farm income had increased $Bl2 - 590, placing Chowan County well ahead of schedule in the 5-year k period. We congratulate our ft Chowan County people on this " progress. Now, the only way we can hold the progress we’ve made and still improve is t; apply more of the recommended practices needed on our farms' and pray for favorable weather conditions. We still have a lot of farms in Chowan Countv « whose yields are below average for t\ic county. It is on these farms mainly the needed im proved practices must be em ployed to continue our progress There can also be some adjust ments in crops and livestock en terprises which will aid increas ed income. Let’s keep the ball of progress rolling in 1954. Corn Varieties: In 1963 we conducted one corn variety trial demonstration. There was con siderable variation in the per formance of the various varie / 'ties as to yield, quality of grain* \ and strength of stalk. The av-| erage yield per acre was 87 a, bushels. The following varieties had good characteristics and were above average in yield: Earlv maturing DeKalb 805 yielded 92 bushels per acre. In medium season maturity Funks G-144 yielded 91 bushels, Coker 15 yielded 99 bushels, Watson 401 yielded 93 bushels, Watson 401A yielded 95 bushels, Pioneer 3098 yielded 116 bushels, Pioneer 3037 yielded }OB bushels, VPI 648 yielded* - !)? bushels, Missouri 916 yielded 92 bushels, and Speight D-8 yielded 89 bushels. Full sea son maturing varieties Speight D-14 yielded 94 bushels, McNair 304 yielded 95 bushels, Pioneer 310 yielded 117 bushels, Pioneer 3048 yielded 89 bushels, Pioneer X-8218 yielded 111 bushels, M&W 120 yielded 117 bushels and M&W 130 yielded 90 bushels. rThe varieties that were used jn j 1963 and were also used in'1962 1 performed both I years. All of these are yellow x. varieties and we consider them " 1 good ones to choose from fay., 1964 planting. Peanuts and Cotton: Again I want to remind peanut growers) to use recommended nema'tocidesj for controlling nematodes in! their peanuts in 1964. D-D ma-j teriafs and Telone must be up-! plied at least two weeks - prior to planting. Zinophos granules! NOTICE TO TAXPAYERS 4 {- •;>. ■ ' /.

For controlling nematodes in i cotton we can use D-D materials or Telone, observing the two week waiting period. We can ‘ still use nemagon and fumazone at planting or prior to planting for cotton. I don v t have any information on using Zinophos for sting nemrtode control in cotton but suggest that any growers who wish to try it do so on a limited basis; I don’t see] any reason why it should not work. Junior Livestock Show and Sale: The Chowan County Jun ior Livestock Show and Sale is being held on Wednesday of this week. It will be over by the time you receive this paper but we will give you a story on it 1 next week. Agricultural Extension Agent Marry Venters and Vocational Agricultural Teacher Everett White inform me that their youth have done a nice job feeding out their steers and hogs, 1 feel sure we will have a very commendable exhibition. We are very regretful that the mar ket price of steers is low at this time and -no doubt will reflect on the chances of profit by our youth feeders. We can’t- afford to be discouraged gnd quit when the price pendulum hits the bot tom because next year it could , swing reasonably well up. Caseworkers Hold Meeting In Edenton Continued from Page 1, Section 1 lone desiring to learn a trade or to get technical training to re ceive such training. There are I 20 such institutions in the State 1 of North Carolina. The cost to ' individuals is S2O per quarter, i but no one is turned away be i cause of insufficient finances, i This problem is solved by some i times helping the individual to find part time work or through . some, other method. 1 During the past nine months, 40,000' persons have taken ad -1 vantage of .industrial education 1 and technical training. Mr. Val ; entine brought out the fact that jobs are available for skilled : workers, but the skilled workers are not available. Motivation is an important factor, and wavs of motivating youth and adults ' to take advantage of industrial ■ education centers must be found. Training is available five days a week from 7 A. M., until 10:30 iP. M., thereby making it possi j bie for one to receive training 1 day or night at the individual’s convenience. It is hoped that more individuals will become \ better acquainted wiih ttyis phase of' framing and education.
