THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1969 Auto Safety Belts NEW YORK—Experts es timate that more than 5,000 lives would be saved each year in the United States and that injuries would be reduced by one-third if everyone used auto seat belts, says the Insurance Information Institute. Around Chowan County Farms Cotton and Peanut Tour: The tour of cotton and peanut variety demonstra tions here in Chowan County was very interest ing. The new cotton vari ety THI49 showed up very well at both Fahey and Carroll Bynun’s and also at Joe Hollowell’s. The bolls are large and this is supposed to be a long staple cotton of good qual ity that will help us com pete with western cotton. Yield data on all varieties will be obtained when the cotton is picked. At. the peanut variety demonstration grown with David Bateman, growth habits of all varieties and mixtures were observed. A few plants were checked for maturity and digging time is still not here but is only 10 days to two weeks away. Better take a look at your peanuts and try to dig them when about 75 per cent of the kernels are mature. Cotton Defoliation: This should be done at least 10 days and not more than 20 days before harvesting begins. It will allow me chanical harvesters to do a better job. Dew dries earlier, allowing picking to begin earlier in the day. i 801 l rot, fiber and seed i deterioration are retarded : due to exposure of lint to . the sun and air movement Student Ait Contest Begins An art contest for stu dents in Edenton-Chowan Schools is currently in progress to secure three pieces to hang permanently in the superintendent’s new office.

This Is County Fair Woak: The Chowan Coun ty Fair at the American Legion Fairgrounds is un derway here this week. At this writing, on Monday afternoon, exhibits are coming in a little slower than normal. I don’t think this is anything to be ex cited about because a large portion of the exhibits come in later on in the af ternoon. Exhibits are looking very good and we antici pate this being one of the best of our county fairs. No doubt, the extremely dry weather may have handicapped some people in producing and bringing in the quality of exhibits they desire. Exhibits are being judged on Tuesday as usual. If you have not attend ed your county fair, I urge you to do so. Observing the exhibits gives us ideas we may use around the home, on the farm and in the community as well as stimulating us to improve on some of the things we are doing. Peanut Maturity: The dry weather is persisting and late set pods are not developing. The only thing we can do now is to dig the crop that is on the plants at a time when it will give us highest yield and quality. On Monday morning of this week I visited a num ber of fields, carefully ex amining some plants in each one.

C. cent to 80 per cent there, you see there is quite a variance. The varieties seem to be attaining normal ma turity this year. From my observation, it appears that maturing first, NC 2’s and Va. 61R are fol lowing and NC-s’s are com ing in later. I believe our peanuts will reach good maturity this season if we give them a chance by not digging too early.
