Reynolds, $T' County Extension Chairman Slue mold has been found in Nor Ui Carolina this first report came froth W. C. [Williford, County Ex (Aoaion Chairman, Robeson County. Mr. Williford toured the disease on I farm located about 10 miles nor th of Lumberton. The disease was spread over only** small area of the bed and was activ. Anthracnose has not been report Damping-off has been observed ak many beds throughout the Eas tern and Border Beit areas. This disease has caused damage on ?t? beds. All three diseases are controlled > fr y method-spraying or dusting with any of the fungicides contain ing ferbam, tineb or maneb will prevent blue mold and anthracnose and go a long way toward reducing losses to dampittg-off. Growers in the Eastern and Border Belts shou ld continue treating their beds un til transplanting to the field is com plete. In the past few years tobacco fanners have done a wonderful job in preventing the occurrence of blue mold and anthracnose and Keeping looses to damp-off to a minimum. However, they should be reminded that the fungicides we suggest are preventives and not cures. Also, with ideal weather, a build-up of the causal agent might occur that could result in sertous damage to tobacco plants. .?

Duplin Benefits $166,990 Monthly Monthly old-age, survivors, and disability insurance benefits in Dup lin County now top $166,990 per month, James P. Temple, District Manager of Social Security in Goldsboro, said today on releasing his annual county benefit data re port. The new monthly figure repre sents an increase of 14 percent over the corresponding period last year. "This increase can be attributed to the changes in the law in recent yean, as well as to the growth of our aged population," Mr. Temple said. "This money stimulates coun ty business; most of it is spent for food clothing, and shelter ' ing power of many residents in Duplin County." Monthly benefits first became payable in January 1940, and they have continued without interruption for 23 years, accompanied by a steady growth in the number of beneficiaries. Temple noted that as of December 31, 1962, some 3,804 people in Duplin County were col lecting about $2,003,880 annually from social security. More people in Duplin County, he said, could draw social security benefits if they knew more about the law, and for that reason they are urged to visit or call the local social security office wherever they have a question concerning their benefits or responsibilities. ? Two Negroes Drowned Saturday Cause Of Drowning Dnexplained The drowning of two Duplin County negroes continues to be a mystery to the sheriff's department officers. Herman Boyette and Gen eva Robinson, both of route X, A'. bertson were drowned on Saturday night in deep water of North East river under a bridge on a rural road between Blizzard and Holmes Mill and Outlaw's school. Sheriff Revelle, with Deputy Sher iff Graham Chestnutt, Special Dep uty Glenn Jernigan of Faison and ? i . * Constable E. E. Proctor of Glisson Township were in the vicinity about 10:30 Saturday night. They saw a car parked on Outlaw's Bridge and stopped to investigate. The motor of the car was running but no one was in or around the auto. A woman's purse and hat and a pint of liquor were on the rail ing of the bridge and a half gallon jar half full of liquor was in the car. The officers searched the area (Continued On Back) ???????????????????? m Trial & Error We sincerely hope the frost did not hurt the crops of Duplin too much. But it looked like quite a heavy frost when I crawled out of bed on Tuesday morning. We do hope that the strawberries were not destroyed. I was talking to Mrs. Swift Pippin, secretary of the Blue berry Association, on Tuesday night and she was of the opinion at that time that blueberries had been hurt quite extensively. But she said that it was a bit too early to decide definitely. Bit Patterson, local beautician, will not like this, but it seems that she only falls down once a year and that is when she visits her daughter irt WasMngtbA, 1>.* C. Last' year when she was up there she stumped her toe and fell and this year she was so busy looking up at the Smithsonian Institute that she stumped her toe and fell on her knees, brusing them quite badly. Bit, there is just too much to see in the big city, isn't there? Margaret and I went to the big city too. We spent Easter in Boon ton, N. J. We only saw New York City across the river as we didn't have time to get over there. We were too busy watching the Garnd baby.
