Win Your Spring Garden Battle In The Fall
NEW YORK—The fall season
often gives rise to the home
owner's feeling of helplessness
with regards to his upcoming
1971 battle against Insect and
weed pests. This need not be
so. The Chemical Specialties
Manufacturers Association
(CSMA) says that in many
cases the best time to spray is
now—an exercise in "preven
tive maintenance". By control
ling insects while in- the egg
or immature (larval) stage,
you can reduce their potential
for reproduction In the spring.
Of the many insect pests in
lawns, grubs and sod web
worms are among the most
common. The grubs can us
ually be killed with Chlordane
(45% emulsion concentrate)
and the web worms are taken
care of by either Sevin (50%
wettable powder or 5% gran
ules) or Diazinon (25% liquid
concentrate or 2% granules).
The CSMA warns that some
insects (and relatives) will
visit both your lawn and
house. Some of these are ants,
crickets, spiders, oriental
cockroaches, millipedes, and
centipedes. The best way to
light such an enemy is with
foundation spraying. Many
times this completely elimin
ates the need for indoor spray
ing and indoor baits (often
eaten by children). Either
Dieldrin or Chlordane will do
a good job. When applying the
chemical, spray the house's
foundation Just to the point of
runoff and completely around
GAMA Grant For 4-H Aerospace Program
WASHINGTON, D.C. An
aviation curriculum will be of
fered to more than four mil
lion 4-H Club youngsters
across the U.S. under a plan
ning grant from the General
Aviation Manufacturers Asso
ciation (GAMA) to the Nation
at 4-H Club Foundation.
Initial purpose of the $3,000
grant is the development and
testing of materials and pro
cedures for the National 4 H
Aerospace Program. The 4-H
Foundation plans to make
available a formal program of
aeronautical instruction for all
4 H Clubs across the country,
egve ring such topics as flight
theory, impact of aviation up
on society, aviation careers,
aviation in agriculture and
meteorology.
Although this will be the
4-H organization's first nation
al program in aerospace edu
cation for its members several
4-H groups have already
launched their own aerospace
programs in response to
youths' growing interest in
aviation.
In Madison County, 111., for
example, 20 boys are earning
their Federal Aviation Admin
istration ground school li
censes. Sullivan County, Ind.,
4 H youngsters planned and
navigated their own flight into
Chicago's Meigs Field for a
day-long field trip. And in
Oklahoma, where 911 4-H
1 members enrolled in aerospace
projects last year, many are
actually flying on student li
censes today.
In all, 39 states reported
2,087 4-H Club members en
rolled In aerospace activities
last year.
According to the 4-H Foun
dation, the objective of its
new National Aerospace Pro
gram will be to stimulate and
encourage young people to
consider the career challenges
and opportunities of aviation
Medical Team Brings Care To
Descendants
by Esther E. Anderson, M.D.
Director, March of Dimes
Heritable Disease Evaluation
Center, Louisiana State
University Medical Center
Delivery of medical care is
one of the most serious health
problems facing our nation
today. The great strides being
made in medical research are
simply not always available
to the individuals who need
care based on those discov
eries. At the present time, ap
plication of research is often
sporadic and inefficient, some
times ineffective, and usually
costly. In many instances, in
dividuals who require special
ized medical services receive
little or none until it is too
late.
This is especially true in
the case of genetic problems,
since many hereditary de
fects are so rarely seen that
they are extremely difficult to
diagnose. And effective ge
netic counseling for prospec
tive parents is only possible
if an accurate diagnosis can
be made and a pattern of in :
heritance of the disorder can
be determined.
In Louisiana the twin prob
lems of gathering research
material on genetic! disorders
and providing care for the
families who are afflicted have
been combined in a single pro
gram. The Heritable Disease
Evaluation Center at Louisi
ana State University, aided
by funds from the March of
Dimes, is carrying out Oa
unique genealogical study
which encompasses both re
search and patient care.
The study concentrates on
the Acadians, descendants of
the French people who were
banished from Canada in the
18th century. The heroine of
Longfellow's poem, "Evan
geline", was an Acadian girl
Whose real name was Emme
line Labiche. Although the
tale itself was largely fiction,
all that was mortal of Evan
geline now lies in n church
vnrrl of Qf T «
the house. Be sure to spray
cracks and behind the steps.
It is good also to spray a four
Inch band alongside the foun
dation on the soil. If spring
tails are proving to be a men
ace around the yard. Mala
thion (50-57% emulsion con
centrate or 4% dust) will elim
niate tham.
When It fcSVnes to the rose
garden, troubles with scales,
mites and powdery mildew
caa also be gotten rid of with
"preventive maintenance." Ac
cording to The American Rose,
a good multi purpose substi
tute for the restricted DDT
would be a dust containing 1)
Mala thion, Diazinon, or Meta
Systox-R and 2) Sevin or Meth
oxychlor and 3) Kelthane or
Tedion, and 4) folpet or cap
tan. If powdery mildew is in
a rather advanced stage, treat
with Acti-dione PM or Pipron.
At the end' of the summer
season, weeds are approaching
their weakest time of the year.
Thus the seedlings are at that
time most susceptible to chem
leal treatment; the National
Sprayer and Duster Associa
tion agrees that fall and early
spring are the best times of
the year for the spraying of
weeds. Many of the broad
leaved weeds (dandelion,
plaintkin, sorrel, mustard, etc.)
are effectively controlled with
2,4-D. For some of the hardier
ones (oxalls, henbit, cinquefoil,
yarrow) it may be pecessary
to apply Silvex or Dlcamba. In

Many homeowners have seen
the damage "snow mold" can
do to a lawn. The most vulner
able spots in the lawn are un
der trees and on the north
and east sides of buildings
where shade is the greatest.
Good chemicals to use in the
fight against this fungus are
Formula Z, Panogen Turf
Spray, Tarsan OM, and Calo
clor. It is also important to
keep the grass mowed to rec
ommended height (about l-">
inches in most cases) and to
rake up the leaves often, pre
venting anaccumu lation
where snow mold can become
established. Remember:
"chemicals should be used as
a supplement to—not a substi
tute for—cultural methods of
weed control."
If the reader owns a green
house, he may be interested in

igation will control many dis

Fall spraying, besides being
the best way to control many
pests, decreases the amount of
spraying to be done in the
spring when house, lawn and
garden work are at their
greatest.
The CSMA reminds that all
pesticides should be kept away
from children, preferably un

What were we able to do with
this information? The Mar
' tins received counseling re
garding the possibilities of fu
ture children being affected,
arid also regarding the
chances that their children
might transmit this disorder
to subsequent generations.
This counseling will enable
them to decide how to plan
their family and what infor
mation to provide their chil
dren when they are old
enough to marry. Meanwhile.
Noel will receive the care he

Genetic counseling is an
important aspect of the Na

Dimes in its nationwide pro
gram aimed at prevention and
treatment of birth defects.
Another good example of
! how our two-pronged effort
works is the Melancon family.
[The Melancons have four
i daughters, but it was Me
lanie, aged seven, who first
came ta our attention. We
found she was suffering from
Legg-Perthes disease, a he
reditary bone condition which
"made it necessary for her to
rtwear a brace on her left leg.
• Fortunately her case was di
-1 agnosed early enough so that
treatment will correct the con
dition, and this lively young
ster will soon be able to dis
card the device and lead a
normal life.
Since the disease was rec
ognized as a hereditary con
dition, examinations of other
members of the family were
made and multiple cases of a
milder form of the same dis
order was found. Melanie's
sister Marion and her cousin,
Tex, are now also receiving
therapy which will prevent
the potential crippling effects
of this defect.
And of course, the infor
mation gained from the gene
alogic study of the Melancon
family will be fed into our
pool of knowledge on heredi
tary disorders among the
Acadians. So Melanie Melan
