next year’s crop if success
is attained.
Taking soil samples and
having them analyzed now
has many advantages. Most
of our farmers have their
crops in sufficiently that
they can take the necessary
time to sample fields for
next year’s production. By
applying needed lime now,
it will be of much greater
help to next year’s crop
rather than applying it
next spring. By doing the
job now it relieves the
rush work next spring of
this phase. On medium to
heavy soils phosphorous
and potash may be applied
now with practically no
lesion. Then next spring
the application of needed
nitrogen may be made at

planting time. Now the
weather is relatively good
and the soil in good condi
tion for taking the soil
samples.
So don’t guess, soil test.
Remember that the Ex
tension Service and Re
search Station is offering
free transportation service
of soil samples to the lab
oratory in Raleigh. The
Chowan County pick up
dates will be November 20,
December 18 and January
20. You may take your
soil samples to the Exten
sion office or to your fer
tilizer dealers to be picked
up.
Retirement: I shall be
retiring from the Agricul
tural Extension Service at
the end of this week. I
realize this is very sudden
under the circumstances. I
had planned on retiring at
the end of this year but a
recent legislation enacted
ir. Washington and provid
ing a very limited time to
take advantage of, has has
tened my time. On Oc
tober 21 the President of
the United States signed a
bill passed by the Senate
and the Congress providing
a five per cent increase in
annuity for federal em
ployees who retire on or
before October 31, 1969.
This will mean an addi
tional amount in my re
tirement annuity for the
rest of my life. On the
other hand, if I waited un
til December 31 to retire
as planned, I would not re
ceive this increase in an
nuity.
Since our County Com
missioners will hold their
next meeting on November
3, it was necessary to visit
each of them individually
and discuss the matter prior
to making my decision.
Each of them indicated the
feeling that I should do
what seemed best for me
personally. This I am try
ing to do and during the
next two months I will
render to the Extension of
fice the time necessary to
clear up to my owr. satis
faction the work we now
have in progress.
I have worked with you
in Chowan County for al
most 29 years, the largest
part of my working life.
This has been a very pleas
ant and rewarding period
of time for me and also
my family. You people
over Chowan County have
been wonderful to us and
this we greatly appreciate.
I trust my service as your
County Agricultural Agent
through these years has
not been too disappointing
and that in many ways we
can look at your progress
on the farms and in the
homes with pride. I ex
press our appreciation for
your wonderful coopera

Bake Orange-Ginger Cake In Ring
Mold For Whipped Cream Topping
Ever feel like running an
ad for a different kind of
holiday cake? Here’s one
that will answer that re

Molasses, orange rind and
nuts add extra festive
