A rather large number of re quests have been received for in formation concerning cold dam age to trees and shrubs that might have been caused by the low temperatures recorded in January and Fbruary, Cold injury may kill dormant buds of peaches, for example. We have checked buds in the Raleigh, Sandhills and Salisoury areas and have found no damage of any consequence. Bark splitting may occur on such plants as azaleas and camel lias. I have examined a large number of plants in the Raleigh ■area, and in neighborhood nurs eries, and have found no damage of this type. Incidentally, this is a serious type of injury as many of you will remember fro-n the experience we had several years ago. I have found evidence of cold injury on leaves of the following plants; abelia, convex leaf Japan ese holly (Ilex crenata convexa), southern magnolia, cherry laurel, ligustrum, and camellias in ex posed locations. ^ The leaf injury is usually ex pressed by discoloration (from normal green) of entire leaves on the tips of such plants as hollies. In some cases, a section, or the entire I^f, may turn brown on such plants as camellia, cherry laurel, ligustrum and magnolia. In many cases the pi’imary cause of injury may not be tem perature, as the plant may be in a low state of vigor and the cells unable to hold water against the force of freezing. In order not to alarm you, I do not consider any of the injury I have found to be serious and would suggest no treatment at this time, such as pruning. I would recommend careful atten tion be given the plants as far ■as fertilization, watering and mulching are co-ncerned. If yo'U think you have a problem caused by low temperature, I will fee glad to have you write me giving Colored News The FHA Chapter of Compact high school has scheduled a num ber of activities to celebrate Na tional Future Homemakers of America week.

I mentioned injury to ligus trum which I perhaps should ex plain because it has good cold resistance. The condition Was found in the nursery row. 'The plants were forced a little too hard last fall which caused them to send up long, tender shoots. These are completely killed back about 12- 15 inches^ Luckily, though, all of these damaged shoots can be pruned out in the normal course of pruning and shaping previous to sale. Peace Corps Tests Slated Kings Mountain area residents interested in putting thelh skills to use fn developing nations a- round the world are invited to take the Peace Corps placement test at 9 ajn. on Saturday, April 9 at Main Post Office, Gastonia. The Peace Corps uses the place ment test to determine how an applicant can best be utilized overseas. The test measures gen eral aptitude and the ability to learn a languaige, not educatioin or achievement. (If test scores in dicated a limited language-learn ing ability, for example, the Peace Corps tries to place the ap plicant in an English-speaking country.) Tlie placement test re quires no preparation and is non- competitivi^ an applicant oan neither pass no'r fail. The application form, not the placement test, is the most im portant factor in the selection of Volunteers. Persons interested in serving in the Peace Corps must fill out an application, if they have not already done so, and present it to the tester before taking the test. Applications may be obtained from local post of fices or from the Peace Corps, Washinigton, D. C. 20^25. The placement, test takes about an hour and a half. An optional achievement test for applicants who have studied French or Spanish requires another hour. miiE's JEWELRY offers ■*liisUuit Engraviiig*^i Rings, watches, jewelry, silver-* Jllyenerai « » -----J f WII^VI ware-we beautifully engrave them all.
