State College Will Conduct Pesticide School with the receitf cranberry situa tion fresh on their minds, dealers who sell pesticides to the consum er, agricultural leaders and repre sentatives of the pesticide industry wtU k* attending Ike 12th Annual Vcaicide School on the State Col lege campus Jan. 13 and 14, 19i0. R. M. Williams, county agricul tural agent, says that farmers, nurserymen, gardeners, ware housemen, housewives and others are coxuaeUed to control certain plant diseases, insects, weeds and rodents. If successful protection from these pests is to be accom plished they need to know what chemical to use and how to use it for best results. How readily available are the best pesticides for specific jobs and whether or not they are used to the best advantage often depends upon how up-to-date a dealer is on such materials. Dealers w h o "hand materials across the coun ter" to the consumer are constant ly confronted with the job of sup plying pesticides that will do the job and that will also meet stand ards of public health and safety. Mr. Williams continued. "Therefore, dealers, as well as agricultural workers and industrial workers should avail themselves of every opportunity to keep in formed on recommended pesticides and their judicial use so as to pro mote better and safer pest control and help prevent 'cranberry situa tions,' " Mr. Williams commented. The pesticide school is held an nually at $Ute College. Latest re search findings and reviews of cur rent problems in the field of pesti cides and application equipment are stressed.
