New Potato
Variety Is
Developed
A new sweet potato
variety that should help
supply a demand for deep
copper or red skin yams
has been developed
by N. C. Agricultural
Expe-'ment Station
scie: 3ts.
The variety is Copper
Skin Jewel, a deep
copper-red skin mutation
of the Jewel variety,
which is a widely planted,
high yielding sweet potato
also developed at North
Carolina State Uni
versity. The announcement of
the release of the
new variety by J. C.
Williamson Jr., director
of the N. C. Agricultural
Experiment Station, in
dicated that breeder's
stock hfcbPfn turned
over to Foundation Seed
Producers Inc. for
increase this year.
Foundation seed will be
distributed to certified
growers in 1974.
Dr. Daniel T. Pope,
the researcher who
developed both the new
variety and the Jewel
parent, said North Caro
lina currently supplies
certain markets that
demand red skin type
potatoes.
'We believe the
Copper Skin Jewel will
fulfill growers' and
shippers' needs for this
type and probably replace

the older and poorer per
forming variety that has
been used for this pur
pose," Dr. Pope said.
The new variety
compares favorably with
its Jewel parent in yield
and resistance to major
field diseases. Storage
qualities appear to be
equally as good as those
of Jewel.
SMALL ROLLER
If you've wished for
a small paint roller for
your small projects it's
here. There is at least
one roller that is three
inches wide, useful for
painting, varnishing or
enameling on wood trim,
furniture, toys and other
little things. It comes
with a just-right sized
paint tray.
RALEIGH A book
shelf and a library card
have been provided by
many parents as they
tried to give their
children every chance in
life. But only recently
did it dawn on some
people that many "good"
books, written for
children, actually tend to
narrow children's views
of themselves.
There are still many
books and texts for
children that stereotype
sex roles telling boys
that they can respect
themselves only if they
dominate, and telling
girls that independence
and curiosity are almost
vices for them. But new
books are coming out that
are deliberately designed
to be less limiting. ji .
Recently, books have
shown women who may
be professionals and
mothers as well, says
Mrs. Faye Haywood,
extension family life
specialist, North Caro
lina State University.
Boys and girls in
these books appear
enjoying a wide variety
of activities that have
nothing to do with
femininity and masculin
ity. They may deal with
emotions , and expe
riences common to all
children.
These books are in
contrast to the general
run in years past.
Seldom then did books
come out featuring
females in central roles.

Boys were shown

remained passive. Boy
characters , often be
friended other boys,
while girls worked or
played in solitude. Boys
in stories often became
stronger and better
persons, while girls
remained as they were.
Feminine characters
typically have been wives
and mothers, important
only as they related to
the leading male.
Masculine figures played
a wide range of roles,
but they were not allowed
to help with the house
work or child care.
As sex roles in
society change, parents
should select books for
children that depict peo

That's been our business since 1898.
And in these years, we've been able
to help quite a few people through -some
rough times.
Like when Mrs. Mildred McLean's
husband suddenly died, our agent
I.C. Brandon was there with a check
for her and her family.
But we can help in a lot more ways

than life insurance. We've also got
policies for retirement, education,
savings and any other insurance need.
We've got a way to help your
family, and we'd like to tell you about
it. So call your local North Carolina
Mutual man.
And let him explain how we can
make things easier for you.

Rust Disease of Pines
Passed from Oak Trees
If you've noticed
swellings or galls on your
pine trees, chances are
the problem is fusiform
or eastern gall rust.
All southern pines are
to some degree suscep
tible to the fungus
diseases, and the
economic losses they
inflict can be counted In
the millions.
Of the two diseases,
fusiform rust is the most
common in North Caro
lina and the South.
The fusiform fungus
causes a tapering,
spindle-shaped swelling,
called a gall, on branches
and stems of pines,
describes Fred Whit
field, North Carolina
State University exten
sion forestry specialist.
The disease kills
many one to five-year
old pines and often
deforms stems, reduces
growth and increases
potential wind breakage
of older trees.
It is estimated that
fusiform rust causes
over $10 million worth
of damage annually in the
South.
In oaks, infection A:
temporary. In pineal,
however, it persists until
the infected tissues are
lolled.
Whitfield said spray
ing of fungicides is not

control. He suggests
other measures, such as
pruning.
Pruning branches
with galls less than 15
inches from the stem will
reduce the possibility of
the fungus growing into
the stem. Pruning is
most beneficial in young
plantings but is useless
on trees that already have
a trunk gall or canker.
On a high value tree
with a small, newly
developed trunk gall, it
is sometimes practical to
carefully remove the
bark and some of the
wood around the gall, then
apply a fungicidal paint
such as creosote.
trees with trunk
cankers can be thinned
out, but these trees are
not direct risks to the
surrounding healthy
ones, since spores that
infect pines come only
from oak leaves.
The behavior of the
fungus may seem a little
strange to the layman in
that it does not spread
from pine to pine but
from pine to oak to pine.
That is, part of the life
cycle of the fungus is
spent on the leaves of
some species of oaks..
Two of the important
pine hosts are loblolly
and slash. They are the
most susceptible. Pitch
and pond pines are also
susceptible. Longleaf
pine is relatively
resistant, and shorties!
pine seems to be highly
resistant.
From late March to
early April, the galls of
infected pines produce
large numbers of orange
spores. When they are
deposited on young oak
leaves, the spores ger
