Catches at Ocean View,Wafrnr'c Pnnilfor
IIUIIIOI O I UJJUIUI
Far Above Average
Attract Hertfordians1
During Summer
The spot and croaker fishing at'
Ocean View and at nearby points in
Chesapeake Bay has been claiming j
much of the time of Hertford and.
Perquimans County fishermen and
fans.
The catches there this summer
have been high above the average for
the past three years. Hertfordians,
on their Thursday afternoons off, get
underway from here shortly after the
stores close for the day and cast off
from the beach usually within the
next two hours with the result that
they get in several hours of good
fishing before dark.
Local men (ana women) fishing
there this summer have been bring
ing back catches of two hundred to
three hundred . . . and sometimes
more than five hundred fish.
Sheriff J. Emmett Winslow and
party recently located a spot ground
there and came ashore only after
their boat was loaded with 515 spots
not to mention croakers. J. G.
Roberson and party, including Vivian
Mathews, D. J. Pritchard and others,
had unusually good luck on the past
Thursday afternoon, as did Mr. and
Mrs. Charles Whedbee, Frances
Fowler and R. S. Monds. L. C.
Winslow, Alvin White, Cecil Winslow
and Tflward Byrum on the same af
ternoon, landed all the fish they
could decently bring home.
Attendants at the various boat
renting places along the bay shore,
say the, fishing this summer is almost
as good as they can remember and
the experience of local anglers bear
out their statements.
Local fishing grounds are not en
tirely neglected however. Dr. J. W.
Zachery, W. H. Whitley, Nathan
Relfe, Edgar Feilds, T. E. Raper,
Russell Winslow and others who pre
fer the more specialized sport of
casting for wary bass and pike with
rod and reel, continually haunt the
river . . . not only on Thursdays, but
also on other late afternoons. Their
catches are, also reported good.
Gathering Place
Many of Younger Set of
Town Congregate at
Store; Dance Floor Al
so Operated
In Hertford as in every town,
there's a place where several members
of the gay younger set can be found
gathered at almost any hour of the
day and until "not-too-late" at night.
Walker's confectionery, patent med
icine store, soda fountain, bus station,
or whatever you choose to call it, is
a sort of all around gathering place.
The Woodmen of the World meet in
the ball room on the second floor and
on cooler nights dances are held there
at irregular intervals. Around the
tables and in the booths downstairs
more vital problems are thrashed out
than probably in any other place in
town.
Walker himself, a congenial young
fellow who came to Hertford from
Currituck several years ago, once
worked for L. W. Anderson in his
I drug store. In no time at all, every
body liked him and after a short
while Walker opened a store of his
' own. His first place of business was
J on Market Street three years ago,
and later came the move to the
Church Street location in order to be
nearer the State Theatre which oDen-
! ed shortly thereafter.
The Walker force of lively young
employees include Blanche Everett,
Jarvis Ward and George Feilds. The
organization's various enterprises in
clude among other things, licensed
veterinarian service, in the person of
A. A. Nobles.
The store's stock takes in just
about everything from bus tickets to
flashlight batteries and sandwiches.
A recent lengthening process gives
the store almost twice its former
floor space.
Phosphate Is Good
For Building Soil
'i ff The agricultural conservation pro
gwm offers North Carolina farmers
Sk , ,aiif(ppportunity to apply much-needed
Dhosnhate to their soils, according to
JE. Y. Floyd, AAA executive officer at
State College.
Farmers cooperating in the pro
gram can earn part of their AAA
payment by applying .phosphate to
' their Jand, or they can secure triple
. superphosphate free from the AAA in
' ' lieu of part of their payment.
No charge is made for the triple
I superphosphate, which is obtained
,from the TVA and other producers,
.Floyd added, but the farmers are ask-!
' ed to-pay-the transportation costs.
'.Triple-superphosphate is highly con
centrated, and does not cost as much
to ship as other phosphates.
Most Nbrth Carolina soils can be
; greatly improved, by -applications of
"phosphate, and many; farmers whose
' soil is too acid also apply lime to
. their fields. - Lime applications will
also help farmers - earn - their AAA
" payment."
Under the program," the phosphate
sho.uld be applied in connection with
perennial or biennial legumes, peren
nial grasses, winter legumes, lespe
deza, crotaleria, or permanent pas
ture. Growers who have used phosphate
in the past report that it makes
these crops produce a thick, luxurious
growth and when the legumes are
plowed under, the yield of succeeding
crops such as corn, wheat, and other
small grains is greatly increased.
Some farmers have doubled and
trebled grain yields by applying phoB
phate to legumes and , then plowing
under a good growth of these soil
building crops.
"DEAD" 40 YEARS; RETURNS
Minneapolis, Minn. On September
14, 1898, a Minneapolis newspaper
listed Jesse L. Stegner as one of the
volunteers in , the ' Sapnteh-American
War who died, in Manila..: The other
day Stegner walked into the . news
paper office and explained that he had
not been killed, but had been too
busy to correct the news item; The
paper, at his' suggestion, printed the
belated correction. " -'

An engine that hasn't enough
oil in it is headed for the repair shop.
And parts like pistons and bearings,
aren't cheap. .: v
To help you slop repair exists, every
Shell dealer listed below makes you this ,
proposition for limited time :
Drive intoMny one of our stations.
It we don't check your oil without
your telling us to, we will bring your
oil level up to the full mark free.
We'll put ifrouf Golden Shell, too,
the oil that hat been made especially
for today's stop-and-go driving.
Maybe you never knew that stop and
go calls for a certain kind of oil. Well,
it does and here's the reason why:
You average ten cold starts a day.
If your oil is slow-flowing, one start can
cause as much v wear as SO miles of
steady running.-' :, y
Golden Shell changes this. It's
fast-flowing The, second you , step
on your starter, it coats each engine
part with tough oil film that ,
doesn't breakdown , even under
the heat of jour steady running.
