SECTION !T WO The Roundaup By WILBORNE HARRELL “Love me, love my dog” seems to be the watchword of canine fanciers everywhere, including Edenton. The piece I wrote on the dog-nuisance problem brought more repercussions than anything I have written, and I have been called to task for my rashness. I also learned that it could be dangerous to malign a man’s dog, even though the dog did take a bite out of your leg or attacked you. Which has been my experience, when 1 was attacked and thrown to the \ ground by someone’s “best friend”. Fortunately, the weath er was cold and I was heavily padded with clothing, so not much if any, damage was done— except to my sentiments regard ing dogs. Frankly, what'l wrote did read a little more rough-on dogs than I intended. My prin cipal concern is the mongrel and /THE CHILDREN) MOTHERisj l *■ f TO EXPRESS your love and gratitude to mother, you will find an ideal Mo ther’s Day card and gift at... MITCHENER’S PHARMACY!

If we must own dogs, : then we shouldn’t give them i more consideration than we give : human beings. Dogs should be • treated as law breakers, when ; they break the law, the same as : you or I. We maintain an elab > orate penal system of jails and ; penitentiaries for the confine ment of recalcitrant humans, so why do we object so strenuously , to dog pounds and dog wardens. To carry the analogy further, we as an enlightened society still tolerate capital punishment, and once again I ask you, why are we so squeamish about destroy ing an ownerless mongrel, run- >|ning wild, probably with rabies I in his mouth, and a menace to ' your children and the eommuni ■ ty? It is a foregone conclusion . that the dog-nuisance situation , is a steadily mounting problem, t Are you going to stand idly by , and wait until your child is bit i ten by a rabid dog? !

I I don’t think any responsible i person seriously objects to the Bible being read in schools or, prayer being a part of a student’s : school routine. What I think most people do object to, is any compulsion whatsoever in the use of the Book. The Bible should not be legislated into any one’s life or into or out of any school; that right and privilege should fall strictly into the do main of the schools and the par ents and pupils themselves. Law makers, in this respect, should keep their hands off the schools and free of any legislative meddling. NEW MAGAZINE WITH THE BALTIMORE NEWS AMERICAN Something new has been add-] ed!

Over man, county Extension chair , man, poor stands and slow starts . are frequently caused by placing the fertilizer too close to the , seed or roots of transplants. I Poor stands result in lower re • turns from other production practices. Mr. Overman states that the . use of higher analysis fertilizers! Thursday, April 80, 1964. Edenton, North Carolina makes it more essential to place it in a position relative to the seed so that injury will not oc cur. Research has shown that the best way to apply fertilizer for row crops at planting is in bands three to four inches to the side and one to two inches below the level of the seed or plant roots. This method of place ment requires planters with side placing equipment. Such equip ment can be purchased with new planters or can be installed as 1 a modification on most fertilizer distributors. If band-placement equipment is not available, Mr. Overman suggests that the next best procedure would be to put ; the fertilizer at the bottom of a ; deep row, then covering with soil : and planting so that there is four to six inches between the seed oj- roots and the fertilizer. Do not place the seed or roots in the fertilizer band. Where large amounts of fertilizer is being ap- I plied for row crops, part of the 1 1 fertilizer could be sidedressed to . supply nitrogen and potash. Mr. Overman states that he will be : glad to discuss such modifica • tions with interested persons. I I PARTICIPATES IN EXERCISE Army Pfc. Morris D. Wiggins, . son of Mr. and Mrs. Clayton .
