PAGE SIX ’u— A Around The Farm BjrK.BC. THOMPSON CMUity Extension Chairman At the peanut production meeting held in Chowan County, As tor Perry, Exten sion agronomy specialist, stressed many points. One of these was that peanut farm ers should select well drained soil to plant peanuts on. He should also think about his rotation in order to take ad vantage of fertility of the crop before and to reduce the possibility of diseases. In the case of peanuts following soybeans, many of the dis ease organisms that attack peanuts can be carried over from the soybeans. For this reason we suggest that deep plowing of the peanut land with trash turners should be a standard practice. The pur pose of this is to get the trash buried as deep as pos sible and to leave it buried throughout the peanut grow ing season. A soil sample is also need ed so that if lime or fertil izer is recommended it can be applied early and thor oughly mixed with the soil. Many of the soil samples this year have a suggestion for ; manganese. One method of : using manganese is to mix it into the fertilizer and apply it at the time fertilizer is ap Mr. Beltrami Attends Event M. E. Beltrami, 1201 North Oakum Street, was one of several ministers from East ern North Carolina that at tended the meeting of Watch tower convention officials in Rocky Mount Sunday. The ministers met with circuit supervisor, Walter B. Johnson, and assembly direc tpr, Phillip Searcy, Sr., to discuss plans for the upcom ing convention of Jehovah's Witnesses to be held at the Josephus Daniels Junior High School in Raleigh, March 13-15. Each minister will hear one of the 23 departments necessary for the organizing of the semi-annual gather ings. Area Witnesses, in cluding members of the local congregation, will take part in the three-day program. A similar convention at the Dorton Arena- in 1967 was attended by over 10,000 per sons from all parts of the country. This spring sem inar will be on a smaller scale, involving congregations from Raleigh to the Outer Banks. According to Johnson, the program will deal with the role that active Christians should take in the face of polarizing issues that marked the sixties as one of the most turbulent decades in history. The assembly's theme, “Sacrifices That Please God” will highlight how expending time, energy and resources in constructive rather than dis ruptive efforts can work for the lasting good of. those in terested in a happy future. The main lecture, entitled “Withstanding the Pressures of Our Day,” will be deliver ed Sunday afternoon by D. J. Thon as, Watchtower district director.

You should discuss the amounts needed with whoever you purchase your fertilizer from and tell them 1 that it is needed for peanuts | this year. One of the most important ; factors in a good peanut crop is a good stand and to try to insure a good stand, good seed should be planted. Therefore, we are suggesting that you pay special interest in your seed and try to get the best that is available in the variety you select. For those who would like to har vest early or have many acres of peanuts, we are suggesting two or more varieties. Early varieties, of course, are Flori giant, 56R and 61R.
