TO SERVICE MEN
To those of you who have been re
ceiving The Perquimans Weekly
through the generosity of the Hert
ford Banking Compr.ny, we want to
report that the Bank has renewed
your subscription for another year.
The Bank sincerely hopes, by getting
the paper, you will be able to keep
up with the home county and town;
it wants you to know what is hap
pening back here and above all, the
Bank wants you to stay interested in
your home county and to return
here to resume your place in the
community when the war is done.
The subscriptions renewed by the
local bank are to you fellows whose
address was obtained a year ago, and
to whom The Weekly has been going
out to since that time. Your address
is important, so we ask you to keep
us notified of any change in order
that we might expedite the mailing
of same. Do this by writing the
bank or to us direct, enclosing any
change of address.
Over The Top
Once again the people of Perquim
ans County have answered a challenge
and now can be justly proud of the
fact that the 1945 Red Cross War
Fund drive has been over-subscribed,
with still a few scattered reports to
be made that will swell the total con
tribution to a new high.
Certainly the hundreds of men and
women from this county in the armed
forces will have the right to feel
justly proud of the home folks for
the part just played in raising funds
for the organization which is doing
so much for those men and women.
Frankly, we must confess that we
were doubtful that the campaign
would be concluded successfully so
soon, but we, too, are proud that our
county has been among tne nrst in
the entire State to notify Red Cross
headquarters that the goal was
achieved.
The task of raising the quota in
this drive was no easy one, and we
offer congratulations to the leaders
of the campaign and to each of the
solicitors and to each person who
contributed to make the Red Cross
drive a success. It was a job well
planned and completed.

Doubly Lucky... Pop brings home a soldier son on furlough-,
and natural nitrate to tide drett tho crops.
IjTood fanners for over aliun
dred years have hauled natural
nitrate for their crops. Since
1830, when the first nitrate cargo
arrived from Chile, millions of
tons have been used on American
farms . . . 3,300,000 tons since
the outbreak of the war. This
year's supply of Chilean Nitrate
depends largely on ships avail
able to bring it in: everyone
takes his share promptly
when offered, at least 850,000
tons can be supplied for this
year's crops.
While some nitrate normally
goes into mixed fertilizer, most
of it is applied direct to the crop
top dressing for grains and
grasses, side dressing for corn
and cotton. Direct application
to fruit and vegetable crops is
vital to yield and quality.

Any man who buys a tractor
buys it for one big reason: the work
the tractor will do. The quality of
work, the volume, and the variety
are the real measures of tractor
value. Couple these factors with
original cost, plus upkeep and
operation, and you have the whole
tory.
That's the way most farmers
figure it out when they make this"
