Apple Blight Disease
Damages Orchards
H. R. Niswonger, extension horti
culturist of SUite CotlefC, report
that there has been a severe out
break of the apple blight disease it
many sections of the Sute. He say:
numerous inquiries have been re
ceived by the College Horticulturi
Department from orchardists, ask
ing what can be done at the preseni
time.
Niswonger says that, as a rule, ii
is advisable to wait until the dorm
ant season and then cut out th<
blighted twigs and branches, anc
rub off the blighted fruit spurs wher
pruning operations are carried out.
Ill
"However," he said, "B. G. Leath
erman and J. S. Sain, of Lincoln
County and V. O. Sipes of Catawba
County, secured 50 to 75 per cent
control of the disease by spraying
their trees at the blooming period
with Bordeaux mixture. H>ese men
have been applying the bloom spray
for the past eight years and have se
cured satisfactory control of blight
during these years. They also cut
out the blighted twigs at the dorm
ant season."
The usual recommended formula
for the bloom spray Bordeaux mix
ture is 2 pounds of bluestone and 6
pounds of hydrated lime, to 100 gal
lons of water. Mr. Sipes used this
formula, but Mr. Leatherman and
Mr. Sain used only 11-2 poinds of
bluestone in the mixture.
Niswonger says that the secret of
this method of controlling the apple

OLDS mobile's hydra-matic driv^
PUTS CLUTCH PEDAL
^ ON THE BENCH I
A clutch pedal plays no part in the game,
when you drive a Hydra-Matic Olds mobile.
Hydra-Matic Drive eliminates the clutch pedal
completely?and it's the only drive in the world
that doea Hydra-Matic eliminates manual gear
shifting in the forward speeds, too ? and that,
again, is an exclusive Hyjlra-Matic feature.
Other devices have names that imply auto
matic driving ? make cleimm to "no-dutch,
no-shift" operation, under certain conditions.
Yet, no matter what the others say, these facts
remain undisputed: Only Hydra-Matic is com
pletely a a tome tic! Hydra-Matic steps up get
away, saves gasoline and enlivens all-round
7>y Hydra-Matic and you'll quickly conclude
it's the only drive for you!

Traffic Deaths on Highways
Are Pushing To An All
Time High Peak
"We face an all-time peak of traf
fice deaths in 1941 unless we ser
iously undertake to bring about bet
ter management of our highway
transportation system," declared
Norman Damon, director of the Au
tomotive Safety Foundation, ad
dressing the Pennsylvania Motor
Federation in Altoona recently.
"With our highways a conveyor
belt for the movement of defense
workers and materials their safe and
expeditious convoy is a direct aid to
national defense.
"A sharply rising tempo of pro
duction, prospective large scale Army
maneuvers, and new peaks of norm
al highway use have spotlighted as
never before the deficiencies and
weaknesses in our highway trans
portation system." he continued.
"Defense hasn't created new traf
fic problems. It has simply intensi
fied old ones.
"Every effective measure adopted
now contributes not only to the in
creased efficiency of defense pro
duction but advances us toward post
defense control of the problem.
"For years past we have been
working us a nation only half-heart
edly for orderly traffic. Our police
departments have been under-man
ned. our driver license procedures
and records inadequate, traffic en
gineering and other safety efforts
pitifully undar-fionnnnri - . -
"An increase of 16 per cent in traf
fic fatalities during the first quar
ter of this year is eloquent testimony
to the general inadequacy of our
control measures.
"Fortunately we are now better
organized to meet this emergency."
Damon said
"The War Department well rec
ognizes the magnitude of the prob
lem and through the creation of the
Highway Traffic Advisory Commit
tee has enlisted the assistance of mo
tor vehicle, highway and police of
ficials of the nation in planning for
the organization of our defense traf
fic.
"Two major points have emerged
from the national committee's meet
ing: (1) TTiat the program must be
decentralized, and (2) That it should
be administered by the heads of ex
isting State Departments.
"As a result there are now func
tioning 48 state highway advisory
committees comprising represents
tlVeS of the ponce, highway and mo
tor vehicle departments of the state.
''Highway transportation is today
a vital factor in our national lifi
for peace or defense. It is our job to
see that it serves us with top effi
ciency."
