County Agent Gives Advice On Blue
Mold Control In Tobacco Beds
There are several methods in
controlling Blue Mold in tobacco
beds. Gas, spray and dust treat
ments are all good. Each has us
advantages. When you start us.ntf
one of these methods do not
change keep on with it. The de
tails of any method are learned
only through experience. The suc
cess of any one of these methods
will depend on using it properly.
It is important thai the beds aio
thoroughly covered if you use the
spray or dust methods. It is neces
sary to begin early and not to skip
any treatment if you obtain the
In t results.
These recommendations are
taken from United Stales Depart
ment of Agriculture liulletin A IS
:;7, Blue Mold Control of Tohaeeo
Reds.
11 you use gas treatments, you
ran wait until Blue Mold appeal's
before beginning. Have your ma
terials purchased and your covci
ready. Treat promptly followim;
the very hist appearance of mold.
When the disease is present, tieat
the bed for three consecutive,
nights, and therefore twice each
week. Many growers prefer to
u e the three-night treatment ex
clusively, repeating it whenever
mold is found.
The material used is Parabacco, i
or P. D. B. i pai adichlorubenenei.
Crystals of grade No. C are the
best size. The cost of H.D.B. per Hill
square yards per season is about
4.50.
Stretch the regular thin cotton
cloth iwith no holes) tightly, so
that it is eight to 14 inches above
the ground. Scatter the crystals
over this cover about sundown, i
Use three pounds per 100 square
yards ordinarily, but only two
pounds in warm weather. If the
heavier cover used to hold in the
vapors is thoroughly wet. l'j
pounds is enough. Straw beds
that have no side walls, or other
beds where the cotton is placed
directly on top of the plants, should
never receive more than to 2
pounds.
A good grade of muslin sheet
ing or closely woven cotton ferti
lizer bags sewed together make a
desirable heavy cover. One cover
can be used alternately to gas two
beds. These covers are useful also
in protecting beds against trost.
As soon as the crystals are scat
tered, draw the heavy cover over
the bed and fasten it tightly around
the sides to hold in the vapors.
No gas treatment will be success-

IMPRESSIVE SAMPLE
An old traveling preacher, encoun
tering many a meal which needed
seasoning, always carried a bottle of
tabasco sauce with him. At one
meal a hillbilly eyed it curiously,
then requested some and poured it
liberally over a piece of beef which
he bolted. There was a pause. Sud
denly the hillbilly made a grab for
the water pitcher.
Finally he spake: "Well, sir,
you're the first minister I ever met
who carrieci a sample of hell right
with him."

Forward Work
To Save Food
A great deal of interest is being
manifested in the plan for the collet-Hoi
of food for overseas relief
which was announced last week
by the Haywood Couniy Minister
ial Association, it was learned yes
terday from Rev. Malcolm R. Wil
liamson, county chairman of Hie
drive.
The plan calls for all persons
attending church on April 2fi, to
bring with them canned fond suit
able for shipment overseas, or in
cases where they are unable lo be
present to send lo the church by
others.
A committee in charge at each
church will see that the food is
taken lo one of the designated
depots, namely, First Methodist
church, Waynesville; the First
Baptist church, Clyde; and the
Central Methodist church, Canton.
Detailed instructions have been
received by the committee in
charge of shipping the food col
lected. I hose instructions came
from the Emergency Food Collec
tion committee on behalf of the
United Nations Relief and Rehabil
itation Administration, New York,
and were secured by Rev. Walter
West, a member of the committee.
In addition to the collection of
food it has been pointed out by
Ihe Rev. Williamson, county chair
man, that cash contributions which
can be converted into food al the
shipping point will be acceptable.
These contributions can be made
through Ihe churches or they can
he sent direct to the committee
and marked for Emergency Food
Collection. One interested citizen
of Ihe Waynesville community has
already started the cash contribu
tion by mailing his check to the
chairman for $50.
"We are sure that many others
will follow the lead of this public
spirited citizen," said Mr. William
son yesterday in commenting on
the plans for the cash collections.
"The more gardens we have, the
more food we can send abroad, and
the more lives we can save,',' says
Chester C. Davis, chairman of the
Famine Emergency Committee.
