Page 8-A Arowid Chowan County Farms By R. M. THOMPSON County Extension Chairman Winter Crops Get Hungry Too With the winter season coin ing, are you sure your soil has the nutrient supply ne cessary to feed those winter pastures and small grains? After spring planted crops have eaten their supply of plant nutrients, the soil is of teh depleted to a deficiency level for over wintering drops. Research has shown the nu trient uptake for many of the fall planted crops to be equal to and in some cases greater than North Carolina’s major cash crops.

C. to guard against this possible shortage of nutrients for my winter crops? The answer is a free “insurance service” provided by the Soil Testing Division of N. C. Department of Agriculture. The soil test ing laboratory in Raleigh will run an analysis on your soil to determine present levels of nutrients necessary for satis factory plant growth. A pH determination is also made to determine the acidity level of your soil. Os course, once the laboratory analyses are determined the service is only half completed. The di vision has a computer pro gram compiling the most re cent data for lime and fer tilizer recommendations. This program is tailored to meet the fertilizer needs of most any economic crop growth by Tar Heel farmers. One additional question still might be puzzling you. Where or how can I get ih oh this blue chip service? In order to get in on the program you must first obtain soil sample cartons and information sheets. The county extension office has the necessary sampling materials as well as Vo-Ag teachers, Soil Con servation Service office and many of the fertilizer dealers around the county. I strong ly urge individuals interested in planting small grains and/ or establishing or maintaining winter forages to sample early because the rush season in the state laboratory will be underway shortly.

It would be hard to find two people who differed more in appearance, style, ideas, products, etc., but both Eliot Wigginton and Nancy Roberts captivated their audiences in Henderson ville and Asheboro respective ly. Eliot Wigginton is an earnest young man with an impressive set of credentials from renowned universities who made a rather unimpres sive picture on his arrival. He looked too young to have been a teacher for seven years and he was still dressed in his work clothes soiled jeans, no coat, no tie (this was at a banquet, mind you) because he had underesti mated the distance from Ra bun Gap, Ga. But as soon as he began talking about his work in a mountain school, where he encouraged his stu dents to publish first a maga zine and then a book, the Foxfire Book which has now gone into its seventh printing, you recognized his capabili ties. Here is a man with a dual mission —he has made journalists and enthusiastic English students out of hith erto neglected mountain boys, but just as importantly, he has been instrumental in lo cating, recording and preserv ing local history about proud, self - sufficient mountaineers whose way of life is fast dis appearing. Both authors used color Lewis, Bass Co-Chairmen For Nixon In Chowan An Edenton banker and a retired Air Force officer have been named Chowan County co-chairmen of the N. C. Committer for the Re election of the President. Dewey W. Wells announced today that George W. Lewis, executive vice president of Peoples Bank & Trust Com pany here, and H. Ed Bass, county Republican chairman and retired U. S. Air Force officer, would direct the com mittee's efforts in Chowan. Wells, an Elizabeth City at torney and a member nf the statewide committee, also re leased the following state ment: “Wo are enthusiastically supporting the re-election of the President for many reas ons. Some of them arc these: “He has achieved a break through in foreign policy that was needed to reduce in ternational tensions. ‘“ln his administration, and in large measure due to his enlightened appointments to the federal judiciary, the fate of increase in mnjof crimes has been cut in half. And he i has reversed the govern ment’s position on the non-1 scnsical busing of school chil dren to achieve ‘balance.’ "He has brought over 95 ‘per cent of cur troops home » CBOWAII HERALD Owl Hoots «mI Soroodws . .

Nancy Roberts is probably best known for the books on Carolina ghosts which she and her husband Bruce have written and illustrated (there are three of them: This Haunted Land, Ghosts of the Carolinas and Illustrated Guide to Ghosts) but they have done a variety of other books, including one about their daughter Nancy Lee “discovering” Grandfather Mountain. Mrs. Roberts shar ed many anecdotes about the background of each book, in cluding her latest one called The Governor. The audience of librarians at each of the banquets went away enriched for the personal acquaintance with two of “our heroes”— the people who write books. SCREECHES LIBRARIANS CHIDED— Both authors cited instances of being helped by librarians but they also had stories to make us ashamed—stories of libraries where they were ig nored or mistreated. Since these were communications workshops where the theme was relations between li brarians and their patrons, the most pertinent remarks came from a speaker who is both author and librarian. Neal Austin, the director of the High Point Public Li brary, Who wrote a very fine biography of Thomas Wolfe, was the keynote speaker at both workshops. He inspired all of us to examine our atti tudes and avoid even the ap pearance of indifference such as he had encountered in a large Texas library. from Vietnam. And he has not agreed to overthrow our ally and turn South Vietnam over to the enemy. “He has taken a firm stand on environmental and drug abuse problems. “He is the candidate pledg ed to work toward a return to fiscal responsibility and a balanced budget, the decen tralization of government and the removal of federal gov ernment from the private lives of the people. “On the other hand, in George McGovern we have a candidate whose foreign pol icy would be surrender, whose domestic policy would be unlimited welfare and oth er paternalistic schemes and whose principal ideas advanc ed in this campaign have dealt with amnesty for de serters, freedom to smoke pot and abort babies, and the pro position that one should re ceive in return for nothing at all SI,OOO per year from his fellow citizens. “Never was there a clearer choice in a presidential elec tion.
