CAPTURED BY REBELS Club Members Equip Laboratory And Office RALEIGH, Sept. 8 Franklin County home demonstration club women take a personal interest in their laboratory and the home a gent's office in the new county agri cultural building.

Enough china, glass ware, rnd silver to serve 1 00 "people and about 50 chairs have airo been purchased.

SIIeavy infesta tions of boll weevils this summer have increased the need for destroy ing cotton stalk3 as soon as the cot ton has been harvestad. Destroy hte stalks as early as pos sible, said Dr. Z. P. Metealf, entomo logist at State College, to prevent the late development of weevils. The sooner that weevils are deprw ed of food and a place to hibernate, he pointed out, the less chance they , will have of surviving the winter, j He recommended that the sta";3 j be destroyed with a stalk cut::..; Then plow or disk the land and sow it to a good winter cover crop, he added. Likewise, he continued, tobacco stalks should be plowed under immed iately after the leaves hive been harvested. When tobacco stalks arj left standing in the field, they develiT suckers which provide food for hordes of flea beetles, horn worms, bud worms, and other tobacco insects.
