Raleigh, Nov. ai—IMrCctors of Tide Water Power Company have agreed unanimous to sell, that utility to the Carolina Power and Light Company, it was announced at Wilmington last week. The transaction will take the form of a statutory merger,” in which stockholders will be able to exchange four shares of Tide Water common for 1.1 shares of Carolina and four shares of Tide Water preferred for one of Caro lina. They also may elect to re deem preferred at $20.50 per share. Louis V. Sutton, president of Carolina Power and Light, an nounced also that his company contemplates extensive new con struction and improvement of Tide Water facilities in order to integrate the 2 systems. Carolina Power and Light, he said, plans to install a new 100,.00()-horse- power steam generating unit (probably in the Tide Water area), to build new llO.OOd-volt trans mission lines and to improve other facilities in the new area. The prospective merger, which still requires apprpval by direc- 'tdrs and stockholders of both companies and also regulatory bodies, was greeted with favor in many quarters. PiAlic officials and editors joined irT saying the merger would help the Tide Wa ter area. Mr. Sdtton called it* a “natural development”, and he predicted it would “serve the best interest of the territory affected and will lend it self to greater development and pibsperity of the area.” 'President Warren W. Bell of Tide Water issued a statement in which he said: “It is my firm be lief that the Carolina Power and I4ght Company will provide for the Tide Water area a type of ser vice which has earned for that company an enviable record in the area it now serves.” He added, “In my opinion, there ^s no need for Tide Water employees to have any concern about employment.” ' At the same time, the Carolina Power and Light Company presi dent said that plans contemplated by his company for new construc tion and improvements “should result in an increase in the total number of employees in the elec tric operation in the Tide Water O Don’t Burn Woods To Kill Weevils Thinking of burning over your woods to kill the boll weevil? Don’t do it! If you do, you’ll destroy valu able timber needlessly. And you won’t kill many weevils. iRoss S. Douglass of Clinton, district forestry specialist for the State College Extension Service, says boll weevils hibernate in many places where they can’t be killed by burning. Many do over winter in surface woods trash, but more than three-fourths of these locate within 50 feet of the woods’ edges. Practically none are found at distances greater than 150 feet from the edges. Thus, says Douglas, when a farmer burns larger areas of woods to kill this cotton pest, he’s “cuttiiig off his nose to spite his face”. ' The specialist says burning woods damages the timber and kills the undergrowth and seed lings. It may lead to soil erosion, and it often is bad for wildlife Then too, woods fires often get out of control and larger areas a.-e burned than intended. Help Fight TB Buy Christmas Seals Men! Women! “Old”, Tired at Middle-Age? NEW LIQUID, MEDICALLY PROVEN FIGHTS ‘GROWING OLD” FEELING Even if the burning is done suc cessfully, large numbers of wee vils will survive and be ready to start an infestation next spring. And if weather conditions me favorable during June and July for weevil development, control measures will be needed anjMvay. Douglass says it’s wiser for a farmer to encourage the growth _ of young timber and to systemati cally cut* and sell this in order to purchase dusting machines and insecticides than destroy the tim ber by burning. Entomologists re port that more weevils can be killed by destroying cotton stalks in the all ihan by the dangerous practice of burning woods. 0 A Macon County farmer, H. P. Roberson, says there’s money in growing turkeys, especially when the grower can sell them at retail. On 200 birds ^Id last year, Rob erson netted more than $5 per bird. 0 In terms of yield per acre, corn is the most productive of the feed grains. Middle-age is the best ag^. .Thousands of folks are peppy at 70. 'Try “pendng up” with New m-VITA 'Tonic.
