Quality Concrete Meeting:
On Thursday mgnt 01 liuS I
week, December 9, 7:30
o’clock, at the Center Hill
Community Building, we will
hold a school on making
quality concrete and concrete
uses. We will have concrete
(experts to give you the il
lustrated schooling. This
event is being held for the
purpose of helping farmers,
builders, and any others who
are interested in learning
more about the proper use of
concrete.
1965 Preliminary Peanut
Yields: Based on the 63% of
the marketing cards that
have been turned in at the
ASCS office, our average
yield of peanuts is 2,774
pounds per acre. This is a
nice increase over the 2,447
pounds in 1964 and 2,475 in
1963.
This excellent peanut crop
can be attributed to two
things. • We were given an
excellent growing season for
which we should be very
thankful. Then, most of our
peanut growers followed
good peanut production prac
tices. We have had good
- peanut growing seasons be
. fore but not nearly as many
growers followed good pro
duction practices.
Now is the time for grow
ers to take a look at their
1965 peanut yield. If the
yield was good and you fol
lowed good practices, then
continue. If the yield was
average or less, a close look
should be made to determine
why.
Now is an excellent time
to take soil samples and put
out needed lime. Also it is
an excellent time to take soil
samples for nematode assay.
If our growers who are mak
ing below average peanut
• yields can come up to our
1965 average, then our aver
.age should move up to 3,0C0
pounds per acre and this is
not unreasonable.
Soil Testing: We are be

I urge all farmers to take
soil samples in not. only on
land to go into peanuts but
also corn, soybeans, vege
tables, and other crops where
a soil test hasn’t been taken
in the last two years. We

1965 4-H Com Congest: The
1965 4-H Corn Production
Contest, sponsored by the
Edenton Lions Club, was cli
maxed on Monday night by
a very fine dinner meeting
held for the 4-H participants
and their dads. This marks
the 21st or 22nd year that
the Lions Club has sponsored
this contest.
This year twelve 4-H Club
members competed in the
contest. The contestants are
divided into three age groups
for competition: ages 10-12,
ages 13-14, and ages 15 and
above. In the youngest age
group Eugene Jordan, Jr.,
had the top yield of 138
bushels per acre, Jimmy Ev
ans had 110 bushels, and
Jerry Castelloe had 100 bush
els. In the middle age
group Rodney Jordan had the
top yield of 186.6 bushels,
Bill Monds had 156 bushels,
and Tommy Castelloe had
100 bushels. In the older
age group Glenn Bunch, Jr.,
led with a yield of 156.8
bushels, Tommy Brabble had
120 bushels, Gary Jordan had
108 bushels, Don Evans had
107 bushels, Tommy Fore
hand 100 bushels, and Allen
Bunch 76 bushels.
The average yield per acre
for these projects was 121.5
bushels per acre. This is
the highest yield that has
been made in the contest.
In 1960 the average yield was
118.5 bushels per acre which
was the second highest. In
1964 due to drought condi
tions the average yield was
103 bushels.
