Henderson made one hit and was robbed of two more by the fast fielding of the Ports mouth second baseman and center fielder. Trueblood was faithful on first, handling successfully one or two mean throws to the bag. For Portsmouth, the sensational feature of the game was the Infield work of third baseman Calvert who handled each of bis chances perfect ly with his underhand shoot to first. Right fielder Gnsnold tapped the only twc bagger of the game and Currn on second and Qrlmea In cen ter field did excellent fielding. The three runs In the first frsme for Portsmouth were started when Abbott fumbled Kenney's grounder. Kenney was tagged out at first. Cal vert walked and went to second on a passed ball. Curnn walked.

Jane 11?The time to begin dusting with the dust poison method against the boll weeril is not the same for all fields. Franklin Sherman. Chief or Entomology. State State College and Department of Agriculture, stated today. A field which Is heavily infested. Mr. Sher man aaaerted. will need dustlnf ear lier than one which is only lightly in fested. Mr. Sherman said that farmers planning for this work with the ad vice of county agents or field work ers may look to them for the "word" ( when to start dusting. "Weevils Invaded the fields from mid-May to mid-June, continued Mr., Sherman, "and the examinatlona of field workers showed a few fields which needed dusting in the last days of June, and the work has be gun In these fields. The majority of fields will be In need of dusting somewhat later, perhaps beginning about the middle of July. No exact date can be named for all fields. The grower should bp In touch with county agents or field workers on this method, and should bo thoroughly familiar with the pro cons as described in our Extenslou Circular 137 which may be had from county agents. The old rule is to 'start dusting when 10 to 15 per cent of Its squares are punctured' has proven a good ! general guide on the side of econ omy; that point was reached in. a few fields at the close of June, others I will reach It week by week, and it 'seems probably that In most of our , heavily infested region, south and east from Raleigh, the Infestation will reach the dusting point by the middle of July or soon after. "This statement." Mr. Sherman continued, "is not intended to re place the advice of the county agent i or our field workers, but is meant ; rather for those who are not in (touch with them, and who may need the general reminder. Those who intend to dust'are urgently advised .to get In touch with the county jagent or our field workers, and I to study Circular 137 so they can | learn how to judge the matter for ? themselves." NORTH CAROLINA IS MODEL FOR GEORGIA Atlanta, July 11.?North Carolina is being placed before Georgia legis lators as a model state, in some in stances. to be followed. Long before the General Assembly convened, the Tar Heel state's sys tem of taxation was discuased throughout Georgia as one of the plans* to be considered by the legis lators when they -met. The plain system of income taxa tion met defeat in the Assembly two years ago. ' North Carolina was men tioned in connection with the plan at that time, but little was given out on the relative success of the plan in operation there. This year. Governor Walker in cluded North Carolina iu the several ttates whose machinery and laws he studied. A personal report on North Carolina was given him. The fea ture of the system meeting with ap proval of some lawmakers here I* the fact that no ad valorem tax is collected in North Carolina for sta:e purposes. The Income tax and spec and other subjecta provide funds for governmental operations. The coun-j ties, for the greater part, use the ad I valorem taxes for school purposes. ! North Carolina's system of public | schools, especially the plan of fin-' ancing It. also is receiving attention. , Superintendent of Schools Ballard | has mentioned the state in connection with Improvements he is planning for Georgia. The Tar Heel highway I system also Is being studied by good rosd advocates In the assembly. Nice Tomatoes Home Grown COUNTRY CABBAGE NICE CORN CUCUMBERS SQUASH CaU 697?698 R. L.
