I HERE'S a glimpse of the Souther.n Albemarle Country, a vast freasuie house, with 30,000 people, ready

I Sound to the most southern 'Oint of Hyde, is a distance of about SO milas and from the Roanoke
River near Plymouth to the ocean sliore at Nags Head Is about 80 miles This region covers nearly
I 4 000 square miles of the earth’s surface It has move lakes, sounds, bays andrlvers than any other
; Uke area in the United States. It has a hundred miles of ocean front, of which 85 miles Is In Dare
] County In this great treasure house of the North Carcllna coastland, fishing, hunting, trapping and
j agriculture Tlic Southern Albemarle Countiy has too long been the Blp Van Winkle of North Caro- I
lina. Snug and secure. Its people lived for the most part In wldelv separated communities with many {
I rners and forests between Contented, happy and earning a delightful living, they were "Asleep" in
a sense And then they began to wake up. becaase people were moving out lo sections that had new
roads; their boat transportation began to decline and It was a long time before the pendulum could
start moving back Now, there are signs of progress on every hand, and no more delightful trip is to
be foimd than to travel through the Southern Albemarle Country, to meetlt speople and to know Its
values. Come Into Hyde, over route 264, see famous Ikake MatUmufkect, or drive over Route 64 to
Columbia, over the ferries and to Manteo. You’ll never regret the.eye^'d,
of North Carolina that has long been asleep.

HERE’S THE WAY
EXPERTSEXPECT
SHAD INCREASE
Rrojecks Will Be Established
on Neuse, Pnniiico and
Cape Fear Rivers
Here’.s how art expert. Dr Har-
! IT Canfield, outlines the plan to
iiici'ca.'ie the dwindling .supply of
shad in North Carolina, according
to a statement Issued from the
Department cf conucrvatlon and
d- lelopmcnt.
-At each of the selected shad
eo'lect'nc stations. Mr. Canfield,
who will supervise the work, said
tipo shad eggs will be taken from
I lie roe fertllzed with milt from
die male and scattered out over
till chantie] of the river in places
wl ere the eggs will obtain the
maximum protection from their
natural encminc'i.
Where quantities of ripe eggs
ere available, it Is the plan of the
bureau to take a portion to the
Edcntoii station for hatching and
I later ipfurned to the same waters
: for distribution
In the natural state. Mr Can-
ficid pomtccl out that the mortal
ity of Miati eggs Is cxtrcinely high
' After being deposited by the roe
and fertilized by the buck, the
, fr,h cuiiurist a.sserted tliaf the
, eggs subjected to lo.ss by inniim-
> erabic enemies, conditions of bot
toms and waters in streams, and
the attachment of fungi which
have been known to reduce ‘the
natural hatch to a considerable
extent. In some canes, he continu
ed, it has been determined that
the hatch does not exceed three
percent.
"We are able to use shad eggs
for the purpose of hatching that
arc ‘free flowing’ or ripe.",;Mr.
Canfield explained. "When tloe’.roe
Is In a suitable condition for edible
purposes, she does not have eggs
in a stage of development appro
priate for hatching purposes. We
can use eggs at a point when they
are undesirable for roe.
"The method of taking ripe eggs
Is to force them by pressing gen-
t’y toward the vent, depositing
them in a moist pan. The buck Is
then treated in the .same manner
and the milt Is mixed with the
eggs for fertilization. The eggs arc
then washed by allowing the v/atcr
from the stream to enter the pan.
"Hatching requires from three
to ceven days after fertilization in
a water temperature of approxi
mately 60 degrees Fahrenheit.
Based on weather conditions, pro-
p." gallon operations should start
somewhere around April. 1 ”
Limited shad propagation at
five locations on four rivers of
Eastern North Carolina and re
sumption of shad hatching opera
tion at the U. S. Bureau of Fish
eries Stations near Edenton have
j been decided upon as constructive
, steps for the rehabilitation of the
i valuable shad Industry to supple-
’ ment restrictions adopted before
