Public Welfare Services Are
Important To Aged, Says
State Welfare Commissioner
"Public Welfare In North Caro
lina is serving an increasing num
ber of elderly persons," stated It.
Eugene Brown, Commissioner of
Public Welfare. The week of May
3-9, designated by Governor San
ford as the Special Week on Ag
ing, emphasizes services to the
aged as well as the special needs
of this age group.
Resides financial assistance,
Commissioner Brown pointed out
that public welfare service to the
aged include counseling with eld
erly persons to help them plan to
continue to live normally in their
own homes, visits by caseworkers
to licensed homes for the aged and
family care homes to help opera
tors meet the varied needs of the
persons in their care, homemaker
service for aged persons who with
a little assistance can remain in
their own homes, and counseling
with relatives to help them resol
ve plans for elderly persons i"
their families.
"The welfare of our older citi
zens is one of the primary con
cerns of public welfare," added
Commissioner Brown. "Through
casework services in the 100 coun
ty departments of public welfare
in North Carolina, we seek to
make workable plans which satis
fy the needs of both family and
aged relatives."
North Carolina has approxima
tely ,'!44,0OO persons 65 years of
age and over and this segement of
our population is rapildy increas
ing. The total population of the
state doubled from 1910 to 1960,
while the number of older people
increased fourfold during this
period. Even more striking is the
fact this age group doubled dur
ing the two decades 1940-1960.
Financial help through old age
assistance is available to needy
aged persons who meet eligibility
requirements under law. Non-fi
nancial services are available to
older persons irrespective of their
income.
North Carolina law provides for
a special hospitalization program
to pay for medical care for pers
ons 65 years and over, who can get
along on their own resources un
til they have serious illness requir
ing hospitalization. A new medical
program for the aged, made pos
sible by 1963 legislation, is sche
duled to go into effect at an early
date.

USE0FAIDRIN
WILL CONTROL
WIRE WORMS
Wire worma do considerable
damage to both corn and tobac
co in Madison County each year.
These small hard bodied worms
penetrate the stalk and destroy
loth com and tobacco. They are
usually found in large numbers in
the damper sections of a fielld
where weeds or fescue have been
plowed under. The population is
usually large enough to cause
damage. Farmers may control
this insect by applying two pounds
of actual aldrin per acre. If your
dealer has aldrin in a 5 per cent
mixture, this means you snouia
apply 40 pounds per acre. A cy
clone seed sower is ideal for ap
plying this insecticide. For maxi
mum results, aldrin should be ap
plied two weeks prior to plant
ing corn or setting tobacco. It
should be disked into the soil im
mediatelly after application.
bbbbbI
crops, fruits or small fruits, flow
ers, Christmas trees or other or
namentals.
The counties included in the con
test area are: Avery, Buncombe,
Burke, Cherokee, Cherokee Reser
vation, Clay Graham, Haywood,
Henderson, Jackson, McDowell,
Macon, Madison, Mitchell, Polk,
Rutherford, Swain, Transylvania,
and Yancey.
Interested contestants can se
cure record forms from the county
4-H Club agents or vocational ag
riculture teachers. Records will be
judged next fall with the scoring
based on production and market
ing practices, returns from the
Droiect. practicality completeness
of records and a narrative report.
