Eagle Home Games Saturday 18, Raleigh 21st, 22nd Burlington 23rd, 24th Greensboro Hairy Indigo Recommended For Soil Building by Waller Hariy indigo is one of the most promising plants today for soil im provement and protection on sandy soils according to Emmett Wlaller, Soil Conservationist. It is a plant non-toxic to poultry and livestock and is suggested as a replacement green manure plant for the once popular crotalaria. Used as a summer cover crop, hariy indigo can yield many bene fits. It adds organic matter and im proves the soij structure. In addi tion 'to increased water, holding capacity in $andy soils, it adds nit rogen and provides protection from wind and water erosion. Hairy indigo is a summer annual legume adapted to most of the well drained soils of this area. An up right plant, it grows to a height of three to seven feet and will yield four to eight tons of dry organic ■tter per acre. It starts slowly Stt first, JlJthe season. The plants have medium to I thick stems that are covered with short, bristle-like hairs. These stems become woody as the plant matures. The common variety does not produce seed under our climatic conditions and, therefore, must be reseeded each year. Seeding of indigo should be made from April 15, to June 1, but sat isfactory seedings have been made as late as July 1. Seed are drilled or broadcast at the rate of eight to ten pounds of scarificed seed per acre. At present market prices, seed cost is approximately $3 per acre. Hairy Indigo is an eligible summer cover crop for cost* sharing inder the 1963 ACP in this county. In tnany instances, growth and soil ^proving benefits have been ncreased by the application of fer tilizer. Apply 100 to 300 pounds of 1-12-12 Fertilizer per acre by inoadcasting at the time of seed . ... Jones County Girl Gets Classy V acation Donated By Old John Q.

Home for North Carolina Boys Set up, Endowed Last Week by Miss Hyatt Last mursaay a non-protit corp oration charter was filed in the of fice of Lenoir County Clerk of Court setting up the Hyatt Mem orial Home for Underprivileged Boys. On Friday Miss Delia Hyatt, who had the corporation chartered, transferred by deed all her prop erty in Lenoir County, subject to her life estate, to this corporation. Miss Hyatt also named to be trustees of the home Lamar Jones, J. D. Woolard, Charlie Larkins Jr. and her business manager, W. J. Thomas. They will serve with her in setting up the home. A site has not been selected yet for the home. Miss Hyatt’s property in Lenoir, Jones, Craven, Onslow and Car teret counties in North Carolina and other properties in Florida and Washington, D, C. is conservative ly estimated to pe worm over ^/z million dollars. The full text of the release, an nouncing the program follows here: “Miss Delia Hyatt on April 29, 1963, caused to be created a corpor ation known as the HYATT MEM ORIAL HOME FOR BOYS in the office of the Secretary of State of Nlorth Carolina. This is the first step in her plans to create a home for underprivileged boys in the state of North Carolina and to ap propiate and endow all her prop erty to the construction and main tenance of the said Lome. The home is to be dedicated to the memory of Miss Hyatt’s family. It is the culmination of many plans and dreams that the Hyatt family has always had, to provide in some small measure towards the develop ment of the underprivileged boys in the state of North Carolina who have not been as fortunate in ma terial and spiritual things as the Hyatts have been. “The home is not to be a correc tional institution but is to be a real home with all emphasis being plac ed on attention, devotion, and a wholesome atmosphere for young boys whose own circumstances do not so afford. The directors have been selected by Miss Hyatt. The selection was made because she felt that these person would most near ly carry out her desires in the maintenance of the boys home. It is a non profit corporation, non secterian, and the boys are to be afforded their own opportunity for religious development in the faith Df their choice. “If for any reason this home is not successful due to the lack of in terest or funds, it is Miss Hyatt’s wish that all the things that she has donated to the home be used in assisting the boys itt the state of North Carolina in securing a col lege education at any college or un iversity in the state he so desires*
