Leukemia is a disease of the blood - forming tissues, which are the bone marrow, lymph nodes, and the spleen. Normally, the human body produces guantities of white blood cells that fight infections. When leukemia strikes, millions of abnormal and useless white blood cells are formed and are carried throughout the body by the bloodstream and lymph system. These abnormal cells crowd out and slow production of red blood cells and platelets vital to the body’s many continuous i Nil I • DRAINAGE PROJECT COMPLETED According to Harry Gibson, Soil Conservation Service Engineer, a final inspection has been made on the East Edenton Drainage Projddf.

Ext. Chairman Soybean Insects Late season soybean leaf feeding insects have been much more numerous this year than they have in the past. Soybean loopers and velvetbean caterpillars are present in high numbers in scattered fields throughout the Coastal Plain. Making treatment decisions is difficult because soybeans are maturing rapidly and the cooler weather slows insect development. According to Dr. John Van Duyn, soybean specialist at the Tidewater Research Station, thresholds for cheese sandwich, lettuce & tomato, baked beans, fruit cup and milk. Friday - Breakfast - orange, juice, scrambled eggs, buttered grits and milk. Lunch - roast turkey w-gravy, cranberry sauce, whipped potatoes, mixed vegetables, rolls and milk. defoliation increases rapidly as plants mature. Currently, early planted Group V (Forrest, Essex) are the only ones at the natural leaf drop stage. Some fields have yellowed due to drought but these may have actually been delayed in matgqfty, not' advanced. Many of our soybeans are not mid-May planted and will mature at a later date. For Group V and VI soybenas, two weeks of planting date delay results in a five to seven day maturity delay. The closer a soybean field is to maturity, the greater level of defoliation by insect feeding it can tolerate without a loss in yield. Defoliation during pod-fill can be tolerated up to 15 per cent. This applies up to 2 weeks before leaf fall. Thirty-five to fifty per cent defoliation can be allowed during the final two weeks. In general, serious defoliation should be prevented as long as foliage remains green. This is especially true when thresholds are met and a large population of foliage feeding caterpillars or beetles are presort. Soybean and Nematode Samples This is the time of year to be taking your soil and nematode samples. During early fall conditions are best for getting your samples and they are more representative of field conditions than if you wait until the wetter and colder months. You can also beat the rush if you do it now. The labs in Raleigh get flooded with samples beginning in November, resulting in a 6 to 8 week wait for your recommendations. For information on taking a sample or getting it to Ralejgh, contact the Agricultural Extension Service at 482-8431.

Page 5-A I Card Os Thanks I I wish to thank my many friends who remembered me when I was in the hospital by cards, flowers and visitations. Special thanks to Dr. Voigt, the nurses and all the hospital personnel who unselfishly attended me. I wish to give special thanks also to the ministers who prayed for me daily. I ask God’s blessings on each and everyone of you. Gratefully, Louise W. Burke pd. In Memoriam W. Earl Jones Sr. Oct. 6,1977 Oct. 6,1982 “He Is Just Away” If memories stay within the thoughts And love within the heart, Then how can it be truly said that dear ones ever part? So many will remember him And things he used to say And a special closeness still remains... To all, he is just away. Devoted wife and children, Ophelia, Gail and James Oct.7,chg.bb
