owe PAGE TWO coi INTY } It & W. OVERMAN, Chowa County Agmt B.anui Production Suggestions: Applications of. copper-sulfur to coStrol leafspot disease should begin this week or next. For dusting use about fifteen pounds of Copper-sulfur per acre now. Applications should be at 12 to 14 day intervals until at least three and preferably five ap plications have been made. Gradually increase the amount up to 20 pounds per acre as the plants get larger. if Ttonet was applied at planting time there should not hefed- for an insecticide with the copper-sulfur for the tyro applications. If Thim ef was not used it might be well to use a combination in secticide and copper-sulfur for the first application. A split application of landplas ter is highly recommended for •best results. The first half of the landplasler should go on now if not already applied. The other half should go on in early August. This provides a better and surer supply of calcium for peanut development. Cultivate shallow and do not throw soil on the peanut plants unless you want to encourage the southern stem rot disease. Fields that are prone to have southern stem rot trouble in them. should receive Terraclor in the first application of landplas ter. Cotton Information The boll weevil is working and beginning to drop young squares. The first four applications of insecticide should be in progress. Make applications every five days. Watch for red spider, we are finding spider mites in some fields. Trithion or Ethion alone at 25 to 30 pounds per acre should do a good job of control ing them and usually one appli cation is sufficient. Methyl Para thion in a boll weevil dust will help to hold down spider mites but has not given satisfactory control in moderate to heavy in festations. You just can’t grow cotton profitably and raise in sects at the same time, so let’s control the insects and make money on cotton. In the last few days I nave visited several cotton fields which have been damaged by 2-4-D herbicide sprayed in com nearby or hedgerows. Due to ■the hot. dry weather this season there seems to have been much more driftage of 2-4-D fumes. Monday I saw two fields severe ly damaged. There is nothing that can be done now to arrest the trouble. Most of the plants should grow out of it but the damaged area will remain so throughout the season and the bolls will be much smaller. The thing we can do is to remember this and not use 2-4-D, 2-4-5-T or any herbicide containing these near cotton fields next year. Cultivate cotton very shallow from now on and only cultivate when it is necessary to control grass and weeds. Don’t hill your cotton and tear up the roots, which are very shallow even in the middles from now on. Japanese Beetles: Japanese beetles are here and will be un til about the last of July. They can do lots of damage to fruit trees shrubs, flowers, grape vines and may even work in your garden. On fruit trees and grapevines the insecticide you are using in your regular spray schedule should take care of the beetle, otherwise spray or dust with Malathion, Rotenone or Sevin, and these may also be used in the garden. On flowers and shrubs you can use Sevin, Malathion, DDT, Tox phene or any other of the good insecticides. Be sure to read the instructions on the label and follow them. Also, be sure to keep the insecticides out of the reach of children. The same insecticides will al so control bagworms on cedars, arborvitas and other conifers. Vacation: Miss Ruth and I had a very pleasant week of our vacation time last week. We visited a few days with sons Charles Lee and his family at Gainesville, Georgia, I had some fun catching crapme in Laka Sidney Lanier. We*spent the last half of the week ait Bre vard in mountain countries with Miss Ruth’s sister Gussie Lee husband Herman White There I fished in the Davidson River up in the Pisgah National !W and caught jtfr first mountain trout, Wading the riv er on ahppery rocks was a little treacherous but I didn’t get a me forgot the rough wading and friends.

The Stars in Oirr Flag NEW JERSEY-DEC. 18, 1787 THE GARDEN STATE-CAPITAL: TRENTON 6 New Jersey history dates back to 1524, when Gio vanni da Verrazano anch ored his vessel off Sandy Hook. In 1609, Henry Hudson sent a party to ex plore Newark Bay, and Cor nelius Mey, a Dutch seaman, explored the southern New Jersey cape in 1620. He gave this strip of land his name. The Dutch migrated from New Amsterdam and estab lished farms and amiable relations with the Indians. The Swedes and Quakers from Pennsylvania followed. The territory was divided when New Amsterdam sur rendered to the English; but since neither province' did well by itself, they reunited in 1702. The first bank was opened in 1682 by Mark Newbie, and the whaling, glass and iron industries were established by 1740. Although there were some Ball Diamond Given To RylandJ-H Club The Ryland Junior 4-H Club met at the Community Building for its June meeting. The presi dent, Wanda Ward, presided over the meeting with 20 mem bers and four visitors present. Sue Dail -gave the devotion. The club repeated the pledges to the American flag and the 4-H flag. The program was presented by Ariyn Ray Dail and Lester Ray Copeland. They gave a dem onstration on Poultry Production using the topic “'An Ounce of Prevention”. The club made plans for a picnic for the July meeting. A softball club was discussed as activity for the girls. A ball-' field has been prepared by Mr. and Mrs. Deroy Bunch and all j the girls are very interested in. getting organized. I Delicious refreshments were I Tories in New Jersey, a largo l majority of the people wear* for the Continental cause, and on July 2, 1776, New Jersey issued a declaration of Independence from England. Food and iron from New Jersey played a large part in aiding Minutemen ! during the war; and at Tren | ton, Washington surprised the Hessians after the Dela ware crossing. The march across the Jerseys in 1781 enabled Washington to out maneuver the British in New York and to crush Corn wallis. On December 18, 1787, New Jersey became the third state to ratify the constitution. New Jersey’s industrial growth during the 19th century was in a large part' due to its inventors: John Stevens invented the loco- 1 motive in 1824; the Speed well driveshaft appeared in 1819; and the Morse tele graph in 1838. In 1876, Thomas Edison heard his talking machine work, and in 1879 saw the demonstra tion of his incandescent electric light. In New Persey, John Hol land launched the first sub marine in 1881; and Joseph Henry transmitted the first radio impulse at Princeton in 1840. The New Jersey shore is famous for fishing, crabbing and sandy beach resorts. served by Mrs. Elsworth Blanch ard. The club enjoyed playing * several games.
