One gal said that she'd never had a garden and wanted to start one, at the ripe old age of 33, and how would she start? Never too late, dear old thing. This is a new new column, and we will all begin together. 't Cold and blustery though it is, time for soil prepartion has arrived. If it ever dries up in Perquimans Cotfnty (<od it always does), there are basic steps to be under taken. If you are really serious, that is. 1 Before you start, decide where you are going to finish. Dig out a strip of topsoil the depth of a spade. Haul this around to the other side of the place next to top soil. You now have a trench about 18 inches deep. In the bottom throw 3 to 4 inches compost or fresh organic matter. Spade this in. Finally, dig the top soil from the second trench and throw it in the bottom of the first trench. Still with me? Work all the way across the plot, and you have completed the operation. With the addi tion of the proper fertilizer on top, you have ir replaceable loam. With future plantings, you can use your power tiller, or what ever you prefer. You noticed I said the PROPER fertilizer. That is because you are now going to insure part of the success of your garden. Call the office of the County Agricultural Agent, Richard Bryant, and ask someone qn that competent staff how to get your soil tested. You will receive instructions on preparing the samples, etc. These tests pinpoint insufficiencies in your soil and how tt> correct them. It is a valuable service, and not enough gardeners avail themselves of it. j While you are there, pick up a free booklet on vegetable gardening. Pea planting time is almost here.

Library Report BOOKMOBILE SCHEDULE CHANGES Beginning this Friday, Feb. 2, the Pettigrew Regional Library Bookmobile will operate on a new schedule in Perquimans County. The bookmobile will operate on a two week rather that the current three week cycle. These changes followed a study of the bookmobile's ser vice and circulation records across the four counties it serves over an eight month period. As a result of the study, a large number of unproductive stops were drop ped and it was decided to serve the better stops more frequently. The bookmobile will operate on two routes, each one served on an every other Friday basis. One route will operate on the 1st and 3rd Fridays while the other operates on the 2nd and 4th Fridays. Whenever there if a 5th Friday in a month, the bookmobile will not operate; instead, the day will be used for loading and repairs. 1979 Bookmobile Schedule PERQUIMANS COUNTY "A" Route-lst and 3rd Fridays (starts Feb. 2) 9: 30-10:00 New.

Oiol 426- 7659 ^ Check over those New Year's Resolutions again. ' Have you faithfully promised to better your ways, in ways that you know very well you're never going to get around to doing? This will just give you one more reason to feel unhap py about yourself. And perhaps one more reason that 1 the family can point at, saying, "You said you were go ing to..." Housekeeping and family-tending can give you the most trouble, u you've resolved to "always" keep the house picked up so it will look nice when company drops in forget it That's a family responsibility and not one for just one person to feel quilty about. If the family is comfortable in clutter, relax. If they're not, they'll help pickup. Or perhaps you're a last minuter. You plan meals by looking in the refrigator a half hour before eating time. Or you wait until the sack runs over before taking out the trash. There's nothing wrong with either of these. So why resolve to do differently ? Too often we feel quilty about the way we dathings in comparison with the way our parents did their work. Or we let television shame us by showing how "Mabel's floor always shine." But keep in mind it's the big picture that counts. A home full of love and comfort for everyone. A home where jobs are shared and parents are spared the feel ing of quilt that drives them into making resolutions that are impossible to keep.
