DEAN OF NEWSPAPERS

In connection with the 200th anniver-
sary of the Maryland Gazette, some old
copies of that newspaper were exhibited.
The news and advertisements of early
days were naturally quite different from
what is found in current newspapers, as
they reflected the customs of their time.
One of the stories from Vienna told
of the burning of several persons convicted
of witchcraft, among them "a midwife
who had baptized 1000 children in the
name of the devil" local item related
the experience of a negro slave who struck
a white man in an argument over a dog
fight. The negro was sentenced to have
law in such cases.
Among the advertisements was one
announcing the arrival of a cargo of "about
200 choice slaves, which will be exposed
for sale on Thursday the 22d of this in
slant"
In its issue of October 81, 1862, the
Maryland Gazette published the news of
the birth of son to the British king and
queen, which had occurred on August II.
The story bore the headlines: Great Joy
to the Nation A Prince of Wales is Born.
God Save the King This was the dis
solute and notorious character who after
wards became George ".
The Maryland Gazette was frequently
suspended for varying periods, but is
credited by the Librarian of Congress with

Baltimore Sun suggests that it is not yet
too late to have all the thrills of a summer
resort right at home Here is how it may
be done:
Move into the smallest bedroom in
your house; if possible one Immediately
over the kitchen
If your bed is soft and downy, put
couple of bricks in it.
Dig a hole in the garden, get into it
and cover yourself up to the neck. When
you get tired of this diversion, wash your
self off with the garden hose.
Don't have any clothes washed for
two weeks.
Sit on a rough board in the hot sun
and hold baited fishing line in your
hand.
If you wish to take a quiet nap in the
afternoon, put radio next to your bed
and turn it on full blast.
In the evening, remove the screens
from the bedroom windows so that the
mosquitoes can get in to you.
Go up to the roof and expose your
self to the sun until you are nicely burned
Then take whatever exercises will make
you stiff and sore.
When you have wearied of all this
and wish to return to a normal life send
yourself bill for $40 to $25 week and
don't forget to give a nice fat tip to the
cook.

FISHERIES BOARD
ASKS MORE MONEY
Want Boat to Chase Steam
Trawlers Outside Three
Mile Limits
Daily Dispatch Bureau,
In the Sir Walter Hotel.
BV j. G.. KASK ERVILI..

Raleigh, JAN 23-The commercial
fisheries division of the State De-
partment of Conservation and Deve-
lopment is asking the General Assem-
bly, for an increase in it's apprOpria-
ton sufficient to maintain a patrol
boat the year round large enough to
patrol the coastal waters within the
three-mile limit to keep out-of-state
steam trowlers from fishing off the
North Carolina coast. Captain John
A. Nelson Of Morehead City, State com
mercial fisheries commissioner, was
here this week comforting with Direc-
tor Bruce Etheridge of the Depart
ment of Conservation and with mem
bers of the appropriations committee,
explaining the need for the increased
appropriation.
For the past two years or more the
commercial fisheries division has not
had an appropriation large enough to
do any patrol work in the ocean in an
effort to keep steam trawlers outside
the three mile limit Captain Nelson
said AS result, larger and larger
number of trawlers from New Eng
land, New York, New Jersey and from
Norfolk, come down each winter to
fish for sea trout within the three
mile limit off the North Carolina
coast, where these fish are plentiful
during the winter months. This is
in violation of the North Carolina
laws which prohibit trawlers from
fishing within the three mile limit
off the coast.
"These out-of-State trawlers are in
furious from two standpoints," Capt.
Nelson said. "In the first place, they
are able to catch so many more fish
than our North Carolina fishermen,
because they have so much larger
boats and nets, and then sell these
fish in Norfolk or other markets in
other states, in competition with the
North Carolina fishermen. In the
second place, these big trawers break
up the schools of trout and other fish
off the coast and brighten them away
SO that our own fishermen cannot
catch them That is why we should
keep an outside patrol boat on duty
the year round"

CONTOUR BURROWS
AID EROSION WORK

College Station, Raleigh, Jan. %
Contour burrows are often recon-
mended as an aid in erosion control
on sloping pasture land when ter
races are no desirable.
Contour burrows are made by plow-
ing across the slope so that the fur
rows are level from one end to the
other said David S. Weaver extension
agricultural engineer at State College.
The burrows are usually spaced
from 10 to 80 feet apart, according to
the degree of the slope, and are most
frequently used on slopes varying
from four to per per cent.
