Vitamin C f
We all need vitamin C everv
day. Probably the best source
of it is orange juice
the orange is the highest of all
fruits in this most amazing
vitamin. Vitamin C is also
prominent in grapefruit, lem
ons, limes and strawberries.
If you use large amounts
of grated cheese in your
cooking, buy grating cheese
in blocks and grate it
yourself. You'll save half
the cost and have double the
flavor.

Check These Wool Label Regulations
If a wool garment is on
your shopping list this year,
check these label rules
before buying
According to specialists
with the North Carolina
Agricultural Extension Ser
vice, the federal govern
ment has passed labeling
laws which establish three
kinds of wool, depending on
whether it was used
previously and how.
The term "virgin wool,"
or just "wool," is applied to
wool that has never been
used before or reclaimed
from any other wool
product. According to the
specialists the term is no
guarantee of quality, how
ever. because any grade of
wool can be called virgin
wool
If a fabric is labeled
reprocessed wool, it means
the wool fibers were once
woven, knitted, or felted
into a fabric, but the fabric
was never used. Instead it
was reduced back to fibers,
for reprocessing into a new
fabric.
Examples are scraps col
lected from cutting room
floors. Therefore, repro
cessed wool can be just as
good as virgin wool, and
may even be better, say the
specialists.
The third term "reused
wool," means just what it
says The wool fibers wnr°
processed into a completed
article which was then used
by a consumer. Later it was
collected, cleaned, returned

Perdue. Inc . a Maryland
based poultry processing
firm, announced on Wed
nesday. October 31, that it
had optioned 500 acres,
thereby taking a large step
toward a plant which may
emplby as many as 1.000
people. Although Perdue
officials declined to specu
late on what the total
investment would be in
Warren County, it was
unofficially reported that it
would be in the neighbor
hood of $20 million initially.
In remarks thanking
a number of people, a
Perdue official extended a
special thanks for helping in
the selection of the Warren
County site to Floyd B.
McKissick, the founder of
Soul City.
This would be Perdue's
second major facility in
North Carolina. Their other
plant is located on land
spread across Bertie, Nort
hampton and Hertford
counties. The firm's total
investment there exceeds
$35 million.
In September, Perdue
conducted a labor survey in
Warren County and even
accepted job applications
for "future employment."
According to Perdue, the
company would operate a
feed mill, additional grow
ers and a hatchery as well
as the poultry processing
plant.
Brian Smith, an industrial
developer with the N. C.
Department of Commerce,
Industrial Development Di
vision, said, "This industry
will provide a much greater
economic benefit to the area
than most Other types of
industrial plants, because
not only will Perdue employ
over 1,000 people, but local
area farmers will have an
excellent market for their
grain (corn and soybeans)
as well as the opportunity to
grow poultry which will
provide a steady year-round
secondary income for our
farmers."
"In short, it will be a real
economic boon for this area
of our state," he said.
MissRobinson Is
On Dean's List
Miss Shirley Robinson,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Melvin K. Robinson of
Warrenton. made the
Dean's List at North
Carolina A&T State Univer
sity in Greensboro with a
semester point average of
3.20.
Shirley, a former student
athlete and 1977 graduate of
John Graham High School,
is now a junior studying
health and physical educa
tion.
She is a member of the
SNEA, TEA and vice
president of the Physical
Education majors club. She
is also a member of the
women's track team
to the fibrous state, and
blended to make yarn for
another fabric. In other
words, reused wool is
recycled wool.
It may range in quality
from very good to very
poor.
Certain specialty names
may be used on a label
instead of the term "wool."
Examples are mohair,
cashmere, alpaca, camel
hair, and angora. The per
centage of each fiber must
be given on the label.
If specialty fibers are re
processed or reused, that
fact must also be indicated.
Select Wood for Long Life
Select carefully the wood
you will use in building
fences, decks or other struc
tures that will be in contact,
with the soil. Your handi
work will have a short life,
if you use the wrong
material.
When building fences or
decks, you have three
major choices of wood,
point out N. C. Agricultural
Extension Service special
ists.
You can select heartwood
of natural decay and insect
resistant wood such as
black locust, redwood,
white oak, cedar and
cypress.
Your third alternative is
to select untreated Southern
pine or other non-resistant
wood and then treat the
wood yourself.
Pressure-treated South
ern pine is usually the most
reliable and economical of
these three choices.
Fences and decks con
structed with pressure
treated wood should last at
least 25 years. Buy pres
sure-treated wood from a
reputable supplier and ask
if the wood is intended for
above ground or in the
ground use.
Naturally resistant wood
has a more variable life
span than pressure treated
wood. Of the naturally
resistant wood, black locust
is the best for fencing.
Black locust posts with
three or more _ inches of
yellow-brown heartwood
and eight or more rings per
inch will last at least fifteen
years in the ground. Osage
orange heartwood will last
' i
about as long as black
locust
Ceuar, chestnut, cypress,
redwood and white oak
heartwood posts normally
will last seven to fifteen
years in the ground. Pine,
hickory, red oak, spruce,
sweetgum and yellow popu
lar heartwood posts will last
from two to seven years.
The lighter colored sap
wood of all these naturally
resistant species decays in
one to three years in the
ground Therefore, you
should trim off sapwood on
posts before you set them.
The heartwood of the
naturally resistant woods
such as cedar, cypress and
redwood can be used above
ground in decks or fences as
well as for fence posts.
If you have a supply of
Southern pine, it is possible
for you to treat it yourself
and obtain long service. The
best treatment method for
home use is to soak the
lumber or posts for a long
time in a pentachlorophenol
solution.
Brushing or spraying pine
with preservative solutions
will give virtually no
protection to wood to be
used in the ground
Untreated pine, fir and
spruce should not be used in
fences or decks. However, if
you have already built
structures with untreated
wood,. brush or spray all
surfaces at least twice with
a water-repellent preserva
tive. Reapply the preserva
tive every one to two years
to prolong the life of the
structures.
If at first you do suc
ceed — try to hidr your
astonishment.
