THIS WEEK'S BIBLE THOUGHT
THE BEST MEDICINE: A merry
heart doeth good like a medicine;
but a broken spirit drieth the bones.
Proverbs 17:22.
WE
STRIVE HONESTLY FOR
NEW SUBSCRIBERS
An opportunity to make some
money easily and pleasantly is given
to the people of this -ection by this
newspaper.
Announcement is made in this is
sue of The Perquimans Weekly of a
subscription campaign, to be launch
ed immediately, in which every per
son who enters the contest, whether
they win one of the major prizes or
not, will be paid according to the
number of subscriptions they secure,
This campaign is different from
newspapar campaigns with which the
people of this section are more or le3s
familiar. All win something, and
several persons will win substantial
cash prizes.
Another feature to which the at-
' tention of the public is called is that
the camDaiam is not in charsre of a
Hi.ninirpr. i 1 1 1. 1 1 1 i. iiimii whiikuuwd i i i
Hertford. J. G. Campbell, who mar
ried Miss Louise wuuiora, oi aen
' ford, has frequently visited here and
knows and enjoys the confidence of
the people. 5
That everybody connected in any
way with the subscription campaign
will be benefitted thereby is obvious
In the first place, we naturally feel
that every one who subscribes to the
newspaper will receive amply the
worth of the price of the subscription
tit- : J . n . . 1 1. i. it- i
fur purpose to improve The Perqui
ViHim vvceiuy in eveiy jjusaivie way as
3 - 1-1 ?ll
lime goes on.
n ...
Those who work in the campaign
will certainly be amply paid for their
services.
Lastly, the newspaper will receive
the benefit of increased circulation,
which is, of course, the chief objec
tive of the management.
We are glad to be able to bring
you this opportunitey to work with
us to the desired end that every fam
ily in the entire section shall become
a subscriber to The Perquimans
Weekly. That is our aim. We are
very glad to be able to make it worth
your while to work with us.
And we bespeak for those who take
part in this campaign the coopera
tion and support of our people.
Says Agricultural Work
Needs Support Of State
Had educational work in agricul
ture, both research and extension,
been better supported in North Caro
lina during past years, it is likely
that much of the misery resulting
from poor farming methods and !o
prices would have been avoided.
This is the opinion of Col. J. W
rfarrelson, administrative dean of
State College, expressed before the
annual extension conference held at
the college last week. Col. Harrelsor
called attention to the fact that the
Federal government is making many
unusual experiments at the present
time and that land grant colleges are
being put to the test. He declared
that State College had never been
adequately supported by the State
and pointed out the poor laboratory
facilities of the college and exper
ment station for the scientific study
of farm problems.
"Farming is not only a matter of
production at present. It is a matter
of economics and engineering also.
We are finding that farm engineer
ing is becoming increasingly import
ant in Jhis state and yet we have
little or no financial means to prop
erly investigate the engineering
problems of North Carolina farms,"
Col. Harrelson said. "Our livestock
situation is a disgrace yet the col
lege has practically no funds for
carrying on livestock investigation."
Deploring the lack of financial
support given by the state to the in
vestigation and extension work at
State College, Dean Harrelson said
that sooner or later the Federal gov
ernment would stop aiding in this
work to the extent that it does now.
"We cannot expect outside people to
take an interest in us, if we do not
take an; interest' in ourselves' he
declares. ' :
He congratulated the farm agents
en the fine way in which they had
".ed the adjustment programs of
- st two years, , ..

Timely Questions On
Farm Answered
Question: How soon can cabbage
plants be set in the open?
Answer: This depends upon the
location but in general the plants
may be set in the extreme eastern
counties as early as the middle of
January. This time is extended
about fifteen days as the location
moves westward in the State. Defin
ite information as to zones and plant
ing dates for all garden crops are
given in Extension Circular 122, "The
Farm and Home Garden" and' copies
may be obtained free upon applica
tion to the agricultural editor at
State College.
Question: What causes my hens
to lay thin or soft shelled eggs?
Answer: This is caused by a lack
of mineral matter in the feed or poor
digestion of these minerals if they
are in the ration. Crushed oyster
shell should be kept before the hens
at all times. It might be well to put
one per cent of powdered calcium
carbonate or ground oyster shell in
the laying mash. At least four per
cent of steamed bone meal should be
added to the mash for its calcium and
phosphorous content With these
added minerals the fault should be
corrected.
Growers of burley tobacco in Hay
wood and Madison counties express
satisfaction at the prices they have
received for the weed this season and
ask for a continuance of the adjust
ment program.
