Drunk driving charges during the first six months of 1966 total ed 4,227, which was a 21 percent increase over the comparable figure for last year. A significant drop was noted in the number of charges pre ferred by Troopers for faulty safety equipment. During the first half of 1965, 8,040 such ar rests were made. For the same period of this year, the figure was down to 3,346—a decrease of 59 percent. The compulsoo' safety inspection program, which began in imid-February, was cited by the Highway Patrol as the factor which caused the dropoff ilrt equip ment charges. Patrol Commander Colonel Charles Speed said this year’s in- etpase in mijes traveled and in almost every category of arrests is partly attributable to the in creased size of the enforcement organization authorized by the 1965 General Assembly. “In addition to that,” Speed said, “the administrative and other non essential duties of all our troopers have been reduced as far as possible. We have more troopers on the road, more of the time.” McGinnis Clan To Hold Reunion Descendants and friends of the late Nathan and Susan McGinnis will gather for the annual Mc Ginnis reunion Shnday, August 21, at Carlton clubhouse in Cher- ryville.

Insuranse For Every Need COMEDY CORNER "Looks or if Simpson's oversize moHef isn't working so well I* Phone 739-2407 By M. E. GARDNER N. C. State University Here are some timely reminders for the fruit, vegetable and or nament gardens: If you have raspberries, either red or black, remove the old fruiting canes immediately after the harvest season. Cut the old canes close to the soil and burn. This will help control diseases and insects As a. further pre caution against damage, the new growth should be sprayed with captan, ferbam or Bordeaux mix ture every two weeks. Sevin may be added to the sprays to control insects. If you are not prepared to spray, the plants may be thor oughly dusted with a combination I dust such as captan and Sevin. Spraying is best because the ma terials applied stick to the leaves ' and stems better. Dusts should ! also be applied more frequently j than the sprays, especially after rains. I Black spot, a fungus disease, I attacks all types of roses and is ; likely to build up as the season * progresses unless you have taken the necessary control measures. Severely infected plants are not only unsightly, due to leaf spot ting, but the leaves may drop. This premature dropping will stop the manufacture of plant food in the leaves and make the plant more susceptible to winter injury. Keep all a bovenground parts of the plants protected by spray ing or dusting at least once a week. Phaltan, 75 per cent, is a good fungicide for black spot, as are many of the combination insecticidal and fungicidal formu lations recommended for roses. Don’t slow down the fight a- gainst insect and disease pests in the vegetable garden: Mexican bean beetles (Sevin); corn ear- worm (Sevin); tomato and Irish Insect Control Big Order For Farmers Maintaining effective insect control is the big order remaining for North Carolina cotton growr ers. The crop has been besieged all season by one serious problem after the other. But the danger periods have now passed except where damage from boll worms, boll weevils and other insects is concerned. ‘‘The farmer can now concen trate on this one general pro blem,” observes Glenn Toomey, extension cotton specialist at North Carolina State University. The specialist explained that the second generation Iwll weevils are now appearing in cotton fields, and the migration perion has begun. In addition, the boll wohmi problem seems to be a serious one in many areas ^•This stage of the season when squares are forming and boll weevils are moving from one field to another is the mose critical time for insect control,” Toomey Mis. Tate's Father Passes Funeral rites for Jessie Lee Hord, 55, of Harmony, N. C., fa ther of Mrs. Tom Tate of Kings Mountain, were held Monday morning at 11 o’clock from the Chapel of Harris Funeral Home, interment following at Elizabeth Batist church ca.netery in Shel by. Rev. James Wilder and Rev. love Dixon officiated at the final rites. Mr. Hord died Saturday night at 11 o’clock in Iredell Memorial hospital in Statesville following several years illness. He was a native of Cleveland County, son of the late Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Hord. He was a member of Waco Baptist church and a veteran of World War II. Surviving besides his daughter I worms have moved out of com fields and into cotton fields. “This is one possible explanation for said. “It is very important that re gular five-day treatments be fol lowed until the cotton has stopped ' the seriousness of the boll worm squaring.” This perioti will extend j infestation,” the ppeialist added, through August and into early I The DDT should be applied at Septemlaer in most growing areas.; the rate of at least one pound per Regular application of insec- acra “In cases of heavy boll ticides that include DDT are need ed to control the boll worm, Too mey pointed out. , He added the explanation that, perhaps because of the effects of dry weather on corn, the boll worm buildup, the rate should be increased to 1*/^ to 2 pounds per acre,” Toomey said.
