Pige S-TIm Psquimans Weekly, & . 9 I3fi Jj3 ON TOUR Members of Girl Scout Troop 766 recently toured The Perquimans Weekly office to learn about the processes of publication and circulation. The tour was one of the requirements the 22 girl scouts must meet in order to earn a My Community Badge. The troop leader is Mrs. Gay Mann; assistant leader is Mrs. Pat Haste.

At one pool, Dossett cast a small spinner to a spot where the sun had made its way through the trees and settled on the pools. 6n his second cast, the litUe rod doubled, and the flotirescent line knifed across the pool, the fish trying to reach the other side. With effort, Ted played the fish to the surface only to have it escape. It was a chain pickerel about fifteen inches long. Seeing it started me fishing hard. After a few casts, my rod doubled. Within a minute or two, we boated the fish, a chain pickerel about the same size as the one that escaped. After proudly photographing our prize, we released it and continued upstream. Chain pickerel were our most common takers, but weialso lost a Roanoke bass, or '"redeye," while fishing shallow water with waders. The chain pickerel were found in the deeper slow moving water around submerged logs and rocks. The clear water permitted about three feet visability, which enabled us to watch the pickerel dart from cover, taking our lures and attempting to return. Dossett, a long time stream fisherman, said that pickerel are found in most streams in North Carolina, especially from the Pied mont eastward. In streams in this area are also robin, Roanoke bass, warmouth, largemouth and smallmouth bass, crappie, and several other species. The most complete in ventory of North Carolina streams is "A Catalog of the Inland Fishing Waters of North Carolina." It lists every North Carolina ; stream a mile or more long and specifies the types of fish found, the stream mileage, the mean width and depth, the sanitation! classification, the methods recommended for fishing that section, and the points of public access. It may be purchased by mail from The Graphic Press, Inc., 418 South Dawson Street, Raleigh, N.C, 27603, for $5.04 including tax. . The best tackle for stream fishing is a short ultra-light rod and a matching open faced reel spooled with four to six-pound test line. This tackle enables me to cast the smallest spinners and plugs around and under obstacles with accuracy. During our trip we not only had some excellent fishing,1 but also enjoyed beautiful scenery.

LOSSES Plant diseases on the average cause about a 10 per cent crop loss of an nual U.S. production of all crops. Worldwide, the loss is closer to 20 per cent, according to North ... Carolina State University plant pathologists. These losses become increasing- ' ly significant as popula tion threatens to outrace man's ability to produce food. Exxon LP-GAS tho fcrm Greenhouse CO fertilization . Heating chicken -and pig brooders Cooking, heating, refrigeration Do you think that Food Should Be Cheap? That is the big question being asked today by Mr. John Ikerd, stated today by Mrs. M-B. Taylor, Home Economics Extension Agent. With all of the talk about high food prices, it may seem foolish to ask if food should be cheap. The an swer is not as obvious as it may seem. It depends on what we mean by cheap. If by the word cheap, we mean that food should be produced and marketed as efficiently as possible and sold at the lowest price that will yield a reasonable profit for producers and marketing firms then food should be cheap. But, using this criteria, everything else should also be cheap. If, on the other hand, by the word cheap we mean that everyone in the food in dustry should operate at a loss so that everyone else can afford to buy T-bone steaks and polished apples than why should food be that cheap? Food is essential to life, but so is clothing and shelter in most areas of the world, In a modern society such as ours, one might argue that transportation is also essential, But, who protests clothing prices? Style changes in clothes make costly wardrobes outdated long before they are worn out. And certainly not everyone can afford tailor- uosireuwrcnr ccv: ystyiI 1 rc ir.n MM. v THAT?

Speaking made suites and original designed gowns. Who cares? People simply don't need stylish clothes, tailored suits and original designs to stay warm. Let the poor people but the imported synthetics at the discount stores. The same seems to hold for housing.

Who cares if the price of a $100,000 homes goes to 1150,000? And what about the price of automobiles? The manufacturers often quote modest prices on their standard models, but luxury cars are only for the rich. And even if a person can't afford a car, there is always public transportation. Society resons that not everyone need be able to afford a Mercedes Benz. But when it comes to food, values are different.
