TURNER'S STAGING ANNIVERSARY SALE Is 12th Anniversary of Drug Store In Present Quarters Turner Drug Co., of this city, is this week celebrating their 12th an niversary in their present quarters and at the same time are observing the 35th anniversary of Nyal pro ducts which have been featured by the store past 19 years. This celebration is in form of a timely sale of drugs and drug sundries, which, combined with surprise value days Friday and Saturday, creates an event of prime importance for those seeking real values. Turner Drug Co. has been in busi ness here since 1916 when W. D. Turner established the business. George Royall purchased an interest in the business 12 years ago when it was moved into its present quar ters. During its years of service to the ! people of this section, a large pre scription business has been built up which recently necessitated the ad dition of another registered druggist, B. C. Brown. In adition to their large prescrip tion business, "Turner's" as the store is popularly called, has one of the most complete stocks of drugs and drug sundries that can be found in any town of this size. Observing the 35th anniversary of Nyal products, this popular, time tested line of drugs and drug sundries "SPEEDY" by Elkin Motors, Inc., Elkin, N. C.

CONTROL INSECTS TO PREVENT DAMAGE Pests Usually Multiply Rapidly During July and August Insect pests usually multiply rap idly during the months of July and August. If unchecked, they may spread rapidly and damage the crops seriously. C. H. Brannon, extension entomo logist at State College, urges all growers to keep a sharp lookout for insects during the summer and to start dusting or spraying when infestations are discovered. Tobacco growers can control the horn worm by dusting with arsenate of lead or with the one-in-six flea beetle poison. The dusting should begin as soon as the worms are found in appreciable numbers, he stated. Immediately after harvest, he con tinued, R is advisable to kill all the tobacco stalks to prevent pests from feeding on them and entering the winter season in a flourishing con dition. Examine the cotton squares at least once a week, he said, and as soon as 10 per cent show signs of infestation with boll weevils, start dusting with calcium arsenate, or a mixture of equal parts of lime and calcium arsenate. The hot, dry weather during June does not mean that boll weevils will be scarce this year, Brannon said, for damp, warm weather in July and August will cause the weevils to multiply almost without limit. The Mexican bean beetle must be controlled if the late beans are to mature well and yield a good crop. Derris powder, which contains rote none, is recommended. It gives ex cellent results in controlling the beetles and is not poisonous to human beings, Brannon pointed out. CHEER EMPEROR » Addis Ababa, July 21.—Ethiopians gathered in cheering throngs today to give indorsement to Emperor Halle Selassie's determination to "defend to the last man" their territory from the Italian invasion. The people, stirred to patriotic fervor Thursday by the emperor's speech to parliament, and further roused yesterday by harangues by tribal lords, assembled at mass meet ings throughout the city. The town of Fort Madison, la., has hired a Pied Piper. He is E. N. Averill, of Chicago, a profes sional rat catcher, who has con tracted to drive all the rodents out of Fort Madison within six weeks.
