Uncle Dock From Duck Writes:
Board of Education Needs Guardian
Unless We Send En- Back TO School

Dear Mr.. Editor:
The time has come it seems to
me, unless we can send our Board
of Education back to school we
should get guardian appointed
for them. Now right here at our
door they have gone and bought a
mans house for $4,000 just be-
cause it was close to the new
Kitty Hawk School, and had the
peoples money in their pockets,
which must have been burning
them up.
Nobody seems to be able to dis
cover the reason why they spent
this $4,000 which ought to have
been used to benefit the children.
We can't find out who cooked up
this deal. We don't know what the
house is good for, and to be worth
the investment it would have to
rent the year round for $500 a
month. Sure, they couldn't dream
of using it for teacherage, for
teacherages went out 20 years ago,
and surely we can't be 20 years
behind in Dare County. Specially

BLUE MARLIN, W.T.. POS LBS.
is CAUGHT OFF HATTERAS

Douglas Bournique of Theinville,
Wisconsin, who says he has fished
for blue marlin in just about all
waters of the world, where these
billfish are taken with rod and reel
was back at Hatteras on Tuesday,
where he boated 208 pound speci-
men, while skipping bait from the
Albatross III, skippered by Capt.
Oliver O'Neal.
This was the first blue marlin
taken since a couple of hurricanes
fouled up offshore waters recently.
The last one landed was a 225-
FOUNDER by w. H. Trice of Lynn
haven, Va.
Bournique fished off Hatteras
earlier this year but failed to
make a contact with a blue mar
lin. He did land white marlin
which he released after bringing
the fish to the boats stern. He
caught his first blue marlin off
Hatteras, about five years ago, al
though he had previously landed
the big fish in Jamaica and the
Bahamas.

, Dare County where just about all
of our teachers live here, and have
for the past 20 to 40 years.
But this amt quite as bad as
what they done at Hatteras. They
went and put a 100000 building,
the finest Dare County had ever
had, down in low ground against
the advice and wishes of lot of
people who lived there all their
lives. The Board of Education just
refused to believe we'd ever have
any more tides. The last hurricane
flooded the floors in this building,
and you know what salt water will
do to the fixtures, as well as the
grass in the school yard.
And there is another thing that
puzzles us. We have been taught
that school houses are built for the
good of the children. Yet every
time school is consolidated with
some other school, the county Off
Gals try to give the building away
ito somebody who won't take
enough interest nor fork up money
to keep it up and make it give the
community several years of good
service. If that house was built for
the benefit of the children, then it
should bring the high dollar and
continue to benefit. the children.
For goodness sake Mr.. Editor,
we've got to do something about
this fever and affliction that has
come upon people who get their
living from the taxpayers. It's a
terrible thing. Good, hardworking
people who get these jobs some
times grow helpless and won't
work any more. They are more
nervous than "the cat on hot tin
roof" when they can find dollar
of the peoples money. They've just
got to spend it whether they get
anything for it or not.
And then they talk about how
hard they work, and about their
nerves going back on them.
They've got to have so many days
off, and days they are on the job,
they've got to have their coffee
breaks" cause they read about
them somewhere else. It's getting
to be the biggest joke you hear up
and down the roads these days is
them coffee breaks" in the court
house. Why it's got so now that
your tax notices still smell like
coffee when you get 'em out of
the mail.
Mr.. Editor, l bet they amt four
people in the courthouse who know
what fair and square days work
is in years and years. Three men
fishing a long-net do more work
in one day than any forty of the
kind of folks now being supported
by the taxpayers.
We wish you good luck, for our
folks have been sick of this mess a
long time. Throw the pepper on
heavy.
Yours for economy,

fertilizer is placed directly under
the seed, the roots may run into
fatal concentration of salts. And
if the fertilizer Is placed right with
the seed, chances are against the
seed ever terminating.
Logic suggests that the best
spot to place the fertilizer is a
little below and a little off to the
side of the seed says DR.. Bentz.
And tests have shown that's eX-
actly right. BY placing the fertilizer
band about 1-inch below and 2
inches to the side of the seed, it's
far enough away so ii doesn't dam
age the seed, and yet it's close
enough so the tiny roots can reach
the nutrients within a few days"
The soil scientist says fertilizer
placement attachments that do this
kind of job are available from
machinery dealers for most corn
planters.

X-rays revealed no broken bones.
All were treated at the Garrett
County Memorial hospital.
Joe Stanton, Deep Creek Lake
skier broke a rib in a fall at the
ski slope last Wednesday,
Statistics throughout the nation
indicate that there is broken
bone for every thousand hours of
skiing, which puts the Garrett
county well above the average.
With three or four hundred skiers
every weekend, it was pointed
out that the number of broken
bones in this area was extremely
low.

Improperly Placed
Fertilizer May
Hurt Corn Seeding

Farmers Who use more fertilizer
and higher analysis fertilizer at
corn planting time than they did a
few years ago may be overdue for
a change in the way they apply
the fertilizer.
When heavy dose of fertilizer
and seed are placed right to-
gether in the soil, the seed is in
great danger Of being damaged
by the salts that result when the
fertilizer starts to dissolve.
This wasn't so important on most
farms a few years ago, according
to DR.. Frank Bentz of the Univer-
sity of Maryland agronomy depart
ment. He says that when it was the
general practice to use only small
amount of low analysis fertilizer
at planting time it didn't really
matter too much where the ferti-
liZer was placed-Whether directly
over the seed. under it or right
with it. AS the fertilizer went into
solution, the plant roots got some
of it and the plant benefited.
It's a different story now. with
heavy applications of high analysis
fertilizer. If the fertilizer is placed
directly over the seed, the tiny
leaves Of the spouting seeding may
run into the heavy concentration
of chemical, and 90 no further. If

tremendously in debt for funeral

personally feel that it is more the
fault of the people who made the

no Christian reason TO go beyond
simplicity in this matter. If there
were no viewing. the interior of
the casket certainly would not mat

AS a matter of fact, especially in
the occasion of the death of a re-
latively young person, there are
uses to which that body may be
put that would do some good TO
some person. Take for instance, the
case of which l read recently of a
young couple who saw to it that the
corneas of the eyes of their young
child were removed and given to
another person at the time of their
child's death. | would certainly feel
good if l thought that my body,

on to my reward, could help some
person live a more useful life,

discussed along these lines, but l
want to get these matters into the
