WAYS O F TREATMENT
The first appearance of Blue
Mold of tobacco comes at about
the time the dog-wood begins
flowering. Growers should not
wait until the disease has made
its appearance before they begin
treatment as delay causes
heavy losses. Damp, cloudy, and
cool weather makes a more fav
orable condition for the spread of
the disease. A close watch should
be kept on tobacco plant beds
and at the first signs of blue
mold the necessary steps should
be taken to control the disease.
It is often advisable to begin
treatment before the disease is
observed, particularly if the dis
ease is in the community because
it strikes suddenly under favor
able conditions.
There are three methods of
treatment which are satisfactory
if properly carried out, and it is
for the grower to judge which
would fill his need most ade
quately. Benzol fumigation, par-

Announcing the Candidacy
of
Martin Bennett
FOR THE -
LEGISLATURE
Believing absolutely in the government of Surry County for Surry
County's people and by Surry County's people, I have filed as a can
didate for the state legislature, and I take this opportunity to express
to the people my views on several pertinent problems. I want to say
that—
I am opposed to the state of North Carolina charging Surry County's
farmers a license fee to hunt on Surry County land, since the farmers
are practically the only protectors of the game animals and birds.
I am opposed to the state of North Carolina, while boasting of a
$50,000,000 surplus in its highway funds, charging the people of
/ Surry and the entire state more than $5 for an automobile license
while the state continues to leave thousands of "red road drivers" in
the mud of winter and the dust of summer.
I am opposed to the method now being used by the state of North
Carolina in forcing our farmers to drive long distances to secure a
permit to burn one brush pile in his own backyard.
There are other vital issues upon which I will express an opinion
during the coming weeks, and I will welcome letters, cards or other
communications from the citizens of Surry County who are interested
in remedying some of the governmental evils that now beset us.
(Signed)
Martin Bennett.
