Peanut Reminders: Start
peanut leaf spot control
applications immediately.
An application every 12 to
> 14 days is necessary to pro
tect new growth as it
comes. Leafspot can be
prevented but not cured
after starting.
Copper-sulfur dust is
still one of the most ef
fective materials for leaf
spot control. Early appli
cations of IS pounds per
acre directed closely on the
plants is sufficient. As
plants get larger, increase
to 18 or 20 pounds per
acre.
Boron should be applied
at the rate of one half
pound per acre. This may
be applied in one copper
sulfur application or in one
500 pound application of
landplaster. It may be
purchased already mixed.
Use boron only one time.
* Spray materials recom
mended for leafspot con
trol consist of Liquid Cop
per, Copaloid, TC-90, Cal-
Cop 10, Daconil 2787, and
* Cypres 65W. Follow man
ufacturer’s label for appli
cation. These also should
be applied at 12 to 14 day
intervals.

is good organic matter but
should bo plowed under
and left there. Southern
stem rot spores live over
on trash at the ground sur
face, often infecting pea
nuts and soybeans. Control
is preventive, not a cure.
Dusting or spraying the
plant area thoroughly with
12 to 15 pounds actual ter
raclor per acre now should
prevent infection.
Cultivate shallow with at
least eight inch hoes set
flat next to peanuts. Grow
ers who throw soil on pea
nut plants arc flirting with
stem rot. Growers who
cultivate much over an
inch deep are pruning off
roots and reducing yield.
Roots are reaching out in
the middles now.
Watch peanuts for insect
infestation. Use sevin in
leafspot chemicals when
needed.

Holiday Driving
Warning Noted
Too much Independence
in your driving during the
long Fourth of July holi
day could steer you into
one of the projected 1,377
traffic accidents on North
Carolina’s streets and
highways which the N. C.
State Motor Club warns
may claim at least 26 per
sons killed and 884 injured.
While Independence Day
falls on Tuesday and most
businesses will operate as
usual on Monday, the
state will officially count
its holiday highway toll
from 6 P. M. Friday, June
30, through midnight Tues
day, July 4, a period of
102 hours, since many
workers plan to take off
the full four days. For
the 78-hour holiday last

killed and 676 injured in
1,051 accidents.

failure to yield right of
way, 103.
heavier on July Fourth
weekends than any othtr
holiday period," cautioned
Thomas B. Watkins, presi
dent of the motor club.
“Consequently, hot-headed
motorists with explosive
tendencies can be far more
dangerous than a short
fused firecracker and
would be wise to stay out
of the driver’s seat.' Keep
cool while driving and en
joy a safe holiday.”
