Warns Tobacco Men To Watch For Flea Beetle Tobacco growers in North Carolina are being warned to be on the lookout for one of their perennial plant bed pests the flea beetle. Dr. Henry C. Townes. tobacco insect specialist with the North Carolina Experiment station, says the first prolonged warm spell is likely to bring over wintering beetles out of hiber nation. Unless plant beds are protected with tight sides and :overs or treated with insecti lides, the pests can cause ex pensive damage. Flea beetles do their worst iamage when the plants are small. At that stage, the beetles ire capable of biting out the erminal buds, thus killing the plants. Later, the adults lay :ggs in the soil, and the larvae :an do considerable damage by ittacking the roots. Townes advises DDT dusts or ;prays as the simplest method >f controlling flea beetles. He luggests a 5 per cent dust ap ilied at the rate of a half jound to a pound and a half jer 100 square yards. The rec >mmended spray is one pound >f 50 per cent wettable powder n 50 gallons of water, applied it the rate of three tq five gal ons per 100 square yards. The first treatment should be nade when the plants are in he four-leaf stage; the second vhen plants are two inches icross; and the third just be :o.re transplanting.

Sylva Naval Reserve Unit Offers Much Opportunities In the Naval Reserve Volunteer composite Unit 6-36, of Sylva, are avail able to young men who have not yet registered with their draft board, M. R. Coward, commanding officer of the unit, announced this week. A man who enlists in the naval reserve now, and who is able to attend an accredited college, will be eligible to apply for reserve officer candidate training, he explained. "In the event he is selected, he will be deferred to complete college and receive his commission, at | which time he will be obligated } to perform two years active | duty." Likewise, he pointed out, a young naval reservist in col j lege may also be eligible to ap ply for the Naval Reserve Of ficer Training Corps. If select ed, his college tuition and books are provided, and he re ceives $90 per month for living expenses. Commander Coward said that a young man enlisting in the j Naval Reserve can be assured j that he will not be called to active duty until he graduates from high school, 11 he Is under 21 years of age. He emphasized the fact that enlistment In a volunteer drilling unit of the Naval Reserve does not increase one's chance of call to active duty. No drill pay Is authorized for members of naval reserve vol unteer units, but credit toward retirement and promotion is granted as earned, he said. "Another attractive feature of the Naval Reserve program is the annual training cruises of two weeks' duration with full pay and allowances," the Com mander added. , Gold Bond ROCK WOOL eeps summer heat. out REEVES HARDWARE COMPANY FRANKLIN, N.

TAKES FIRST PLACE IN CLASS "A" IN THE 1952 Mobilgas Economy I Run 1 ford's the Clan "A" Winner for 3rd Consecutive Year I New Ford Mileage Maker SIX Thriftiest in its Field! Again thli year . . . as in the past two years . . . Ford was first in gas economy over all other cars in its price class in the Mobilgas Economy Run. In this toughest test, a stock model Ford Six equipped with Overdrive (optional at extra cost) averaged 53.855 ton-miles per gallon and 25.463 actual miles per gallon. This was a very special triumph for Ford's All-New Mileage Maker high-compression Six. For now, with its new design providing 101 horse power and free-turning overhead valves, Ford is definitely pound-for-pound the most economical low-priced car to run! Yes . . . Ford's thrift was clearly proved by the 1,415-mile grind from Loa Angeles to Sun Valley. And a very important factor contributing to this victory is Ford's Automatic Power Pilot which squeezes the last ounce of power out of every drop of gas. ?Tfc# AAA Cofdoti le oed dotormimt ffto wimmor by a "too -mil* por gallon" formula 9o km tro oqvol thooto for off con In oaeh clou rogardhu of dto and might.
