Spray Apple And
Peach Trees Now
The season of the year has
come when many fruit tree
growers : are seeking in
formation about when to spray,
what chemicals to use, and how
to use them to control certain
diseases and Insects affecting
fruit trees. Generally, there is
no Such spray program as a once
over treatment. Chemicals used
for controlling diseases do not
necessarily control all of the
insects. Some of the chemicals
used to control diseases and
insects in the early stages may
not bs too f ffecttve during the
later stages of growth. The
occurence and severity of at
tacks vary from one area to
another and from one season to
another.; For roe most
economical and effective cen
tral, each grower should first
understand his disease and
insect problems in order that
proper control practices can be
applied at the right time.
Mrs. Taylor ib
Attend White
House Conference
To Perquimans County
Citizens: Within a few days I
will be leaving the county to
attend the President's White
House Conference on Aging in
Washington D.C. May I say to
you, this is an Open Conference
and an action Conference. It is
an open conference at which all
problems of aging are opened
for consideration. This con
ference will be governed by one
"word" and one "concept,"
namely Action. Congress called
for recommendations and plans
for action that will achieve the
objectives clearly set forth in
the law. authorizing the con
ference. This law calls for a
report on plans for action not
later than 120 days after the
Conference concludes. It also
directs that 90 days later the
Secretary of Health, Education,
and Welfare should submit both
to the President and to Congress
his recommendations for ad;
ministrative and legislative
action. We know that many
hopes and . aspirations at the
Conference in Washington will
be expressed in the area of
employment. The Nations
Older people want to be a part of
our . mainstream of living. If
their hopes and aspirations are
to be realized ' action programs'
must deal effectively with the
prejudices now reflected in
employment policies that, in
effect, slam the door of op
portunity in their faces. May I
solicit your prayers that Christ
will be the good part of the
Presidents' White House Con
ference On Aging, States Mrs.
M.B. Taylor, Home Economics
Extension Agent, Perquimans
County.
Fruit Tree Pooling
Project Initiated
A Pooling of Order Project for
different varieties of fruit and
nut trees is being attempted at

for fruit and nut trees together,
These orders will be made into
one large order. In this way, the
nursery will allow a price
reduction. The purpose is to
save both money and time while
getting for less money the
quality and approved trees
recommended for this area
According to W.C. Strowd,
Agricultural Extension Agent,
any one desiring Jo establish a
family orchard, increase the
size of his present orchard, or
replace trees in the home or
chard are asked to contact the
agents about this project.

Mrs. Bettie Swindell in
troduced Bill Wilson of
Greenville, N.C. as guest
speaker at the Hertford BPW
Club when it met on Thursday
Night, Nov. 18th. at the REA

Mr. Wilson, who is Program
Director for the Eastern
Tuberculosis and Respiratory
Disease Association, showed a
film on the detection and
treatment of tuberculosis. In his
talk he stated that turberculosis
was third on the list of com
municable diseases in North
Carolina. Although it is quite
easy to cure by medication,
there has been only a slight
decrease in the number of cases
in the state in the past ten years.
He urged adults to have a TB
skin test and chest X-ray yearly.
The Eastern T B and RD
Super Dollar Moving
To New Location
The Super Dollar Store will be
closed Sunday, November 28
through December 1, for their
move just five doors down from
the present location in the
Harris Shopping Center on
Grubb Street. The new store will

The Super Dollar Store will
carry a wide assortment of

department of fabrics, all first
quality at discount prices every
day. The discount health and
beauty aid "Medi-Center" will

was the Sixteenth retail outlet of
the chain. Since that time this
North Carolina Corporation,
with headquarters in Raleigh,
has opened stores in the

of Super Dollars Stores is its
program of taking discount

capital is 2 millions dollars and
it is reported to be the fastest
growing chain of discount stores
in America. Other Super Dollars
stores in this area are located in

Rubella Clinic To
Begin November 29
Beginning November 29th a
five-day immunization drive in
Perquimans, Chowan, Camden
and Pasquotank schools against
red measles and german
measles (rubella) will be con
ducted throughout the four
county health district.
A pre -school clinic will be held
. in each county December 5 from
12:30 to 3:30 p.m.
School children up to 12 years
old will have an opportunity to
receive the combined vaccine
that protects against both kinds
of measles. Vaccine will be
administered free through
services of the district health
office and the State Board of
Health.
More than 11,000 children in
the health district are eligible
for the combined vaccine said
District Health Director Howard
Campbell.
Needles will not be used in the
immunization. Instead, public
health service nurses will use
pressure guns that administer
the vaccine painlessly.
Consent forms for im
munization of the children have
been passed out in the schools.
"Parents are reminded to
return those forms as soon as
possible. Only children retur
ning forms marked yes and
signed by parents will be eligible
for the vaccine" said Campbell.
If your child has not already
had both a Red measles shot and
a German measles shot, then he
should get the new vaccine.
The one-dose vaccine works
whether your child needs just a
Red measles shot, or just a
German measles shot, or both
shots. If you are not sure that he
has had both kinds of shots, then
your child needs this vaccine.

Restoration Month
The Perquimans County
Restoration Association has
designated February as
Restoration Month, and that

area historically and
economically.
Some money for the project
has already been raised, but
more is needed and Joe Nowell,
association president, said be
hopes a number of money
raising ideas will be brought up
at the "Monday night meeting.
The project is one of the most
important ever undertaken in
Perquimans County. The help of
everyone is needed.
