FISHING BEGINS
AT STEDMAN LAKE
About June 11, Under Certain
Restrictions Club House
Being Built By Members.
Contractor L. T. Long, of Forsyth
county, came up to Stedman Lake,
a mile north of Danbury, Friday,
and Parted work on a club hou*e
for the Winston-Salem chapter of
the Isaac Walton League. While
the club house is not to he I arse or
elaborate it will be attractive and
well suited to the uses fo r which it
is designed. Mr. Dong stated that
the outside walls of the building
would be of poplar bark shingles 1«
inches long and of varied widths.
Other features of th» club house
will be equally ax attractive. He ex.
peels to finish the building next
week.
It is stated, authoritatively, that
the members of the league will be
allowed to begin limbing in the la I;.'
at the club house 011 June 11th
next. Of course there are restric
tions as to how many fish of each
variety may be- taken in one day.
,etc. I'eri«ons who !■ iv 1 ". t-en to the
lake recently state that the waters
are simply teeming with the finny
tribe, and there will certainly he
some good fishing for the first few
days, at leasst, until the bass get wise
and stop biting just any kind of a
hook.
For Tobacco Blue Mold
Walnut Cove, April 25. 1032.
Reports have reached me that
several farmers of Yadkin township.
Stokes county, have found their to
bacco plant l>edn infested with Blue
Mold. This damp weather is very
favorable for the spread of this dis.
ease. As Blue Mold is quite de
structive and spreads very rapidly,
nil tobacco • growers should " Im.
mediately provide themselves with
a supply of blue stone and lime so
they may fpray their plant beds
to prevent the spread of this ser
ious disease.
The following formula is reconi.
mended:
2 pounds blue stone or copper
carbonate.
3 pounds burnt lime or 4 1-2
pounds hydrated lime.
50 gallons -water.
Dissolve the lime in 25 gallons
water and di.solve the blue
stone In 25 gnllons separate from
the lime and then pour these two
solutions at the samp time into a
third wooden container. The solu
tion should then he sprayed over the
plants. Mix only enough at the
time for one spraying. This will
give fifty gallons of a 2.3-50 Borde.
aux Mixture which is the standard
spray for Blue Mold.

County Agent.

excellent young man who has been

"BACK-TO-FARM
IN FORSYTH-STOKES
The Associated Charities of
Winston-Salem Makes Most
Liberal Offer—About Forty
Families Placed So Far.
M. Rex Class. of Winston-Salem,
who is in charge of the work of sc
ouring homes for families of that
city, who desire to remove back 1 •
the farm, was a visitor here today.
There are quite a few families in
the Twin City who removed there
from Tarms in Stokes, and it is pos
sible that Mr. Gass may find homes
for some of these in this count v.
Where farmers can be favorably
situated with their families the As
sociated Charities of Winston-Salem
is offering to furnMi fh»m food for
four month" and in s.iue cases help
them otherwise. Mr. (iass is inves
. tigating such cases as rapidly as
! possible, and has already found
places for some thirty-five or forty
families. This work is one of the
| finest yet proposed in the solution
of the unemployment situation in
j the cities, nnd the liberal citizens
lln Winston-Salem are certainly to
' be commended for the aid they are
1 giving in the work.
Stokes Farm Loans
The Stokes County Farm Loan
1 Board on Saturday approved 33S
more applications of farmers for
money with which to grow a crop
this year. This 1s by far the larj*.
■ est number of loans yet approved
• The board ha.« one more meeting,
next Saturday, and it Is believed
that the number will again be large.
County Agent J. E. Trevathan re
quests that all applications be in
the hands of the board, or himself,
not later than Thursday, April 2Rth.
| as' It requires some time to look
them over. etc. Mr. Trevathan is
of the opinion that the 338 applicu.
tions will not average over $65.00
, each, so It is seen that the farmers
are not asking for as much hplp as
they did last year when the average
' was probably around 1100. A great
' many of the farmers in Stokes who
| borrowed money from the Federal
j government last year, are not asking
| for any this year, having been able
| to take care of their finances. This
I is a healthy sign.
