Dr. Henry C. Townes, tobacco in fect specialist with the North Caro lina Experiment Station, says the * first prolonged warm spell is likely ; to bring over-wintering beetles out : of hibernation. Unless plant beds are 1 protected with tight sides and covers or treated with insecticides, the pests 1 can cause extensive damage. 1 Flea beetles do their worst damage ' when the plants are small. At that stage, the beetles are capable of biting I out the terminal buds, thus killing 1 the plants. Later, the adults lay < eggs in the soil, and the larvae can ; do considerable damage by attacking • 'the roots. Townes advises DDT dusts or sprays 1 as the simplest method of controlling : ) flea beetles. He suggests a 5 per i icent dust applied at the rate of a < half pound to a pound and a half per < 1 100 square yards. The recommended 1 spray is one pound of 50 per cent ’ , wettabie powder in 50 gallons of wa- 1 !ter, applied at the rate of three .-to 1 | five gallons per 100 square yards. )< The first treatment should he made j ! when the plants are in the four-leaf. j stage; the second when plants are | two inches across; and the third just before transplanting. Three treat ! ments per season are usually ade^ I quate. i THE CHOWAN HERALD. EDEVTON, N. CL, THURSDAY, APRIL 10,1952. ----- —' ' mi i . i_.. - « Some farmers prefer to use para thion because it is a quick killer. But Townes says it does not laalt as long as DDT, and thus must be applied often er for similar results. 151 Benefit By Old Age Assistance In March One hundred fifty-one persons in Chowan County benefited by old age assistance during March, with pay ments amounting to $3,887.
