Sulfur Dustins On 4-H Club Peanuts Various Demonstrations Being Made In Cho wan County Assistant County Agent Robert S. Marsh last week helped several 4-H Club boys sulfur dust their peanuts, 1 with cooper sulfur used at the rate of 12 to 16 pounds per acre. In two > weeks the next application will be made at the rate of 15 to 18 pounds per acre. Two weeks after that the third and final application will be made at the rate of 18 to 22 pounds per acre. Sulfur dust helps to control the * leafspot disease in peanuts. Since the sulfur gives a good control of the i leafspot disease, the plants stay i green longer in the fall, and conse- 1 quently give a higher yield of pea- s nuts. i Several farmers have often asked i the question as to which is the best, copper sulfur dust or plain sulfur. < The Experiment Station still recom- ( mends that copper sulfur be used, however an attempt is being made to f find out by comparing the two in this i county. Demonstrations of copper sul- 1 fur, plain sulfur and no sulfur are i being conducted on four farms in the county. There are three acres for the i demonstration work in each field and < this demonstration should furnish \ some good information concerning the ( value of sulfur compared to copper < sulfur dust. i , WWWVWWW»/V\A/S«»N/S/WW\^A/V^/VS/VW\/'/ IFEDEREL PLASTIC | CLOSET SEATS $6.95 Trade In Your Old One sl.OO Allowance ]» New and Used Plumbing Fixtures jj ——s I < > see i: Corey Plumbing Col j < > North Broad Street Extended \ \ EDENTON, N. C. I | HEALTH FDR ALL | SAFE SWIMMING Most people regard swimming as the ideal sport. It is -good exercise and is refreshing, and brings relief from summer heat. So it is easy to forget that swim ming can bp hazardous. We may not realize the dangers of swimming un til we hear of a drowning, or have the 1 unpleasant experience of a “narrbw escape” in the water ourselves. By far the greater percentage of \ swimming fatalities are the result of ' carelessness. In almost all cases they could have been avoided if a few pre- ' cautions had been observed. This may seem unnecessary advice, 1 but anyone who likes the water whether it be lakes, pools, rivers or ' the ocean, should learn how to swim. ’ Knowing how to swim makes the [ water more fun, as well as less haz- ' ardous. But even good and experienced swimmers should never go swimming alone. Accidents can happen to the best swimmers and someone else should be along—preferably a "per son who also swims well—to help out if anything should go wrong. Most of us were warned as small children not to go into the water too soon after eating. Rushing into the water before the food has time to di gest invites stomach cramps which usually make their victim helpless. People should stay out of the water for at least two hours after eating. Moderation is important in swim ming as it is in everything else. No one, not even an expert, should swim to the point of complete exhaustion, or stay in the water after he becomes chilled. Panic, resulting in helpless ness, can overtake any swimmer who becomes fatigued or chilled, although most swimmers know that when they become tired or cramped they should float on their backs until they become rested or until help comes. It is foolish to swim in dirty water! or in unknown waters that might be polluted and unsafe for swimming. Remember that with your nose and mouth submerged in water that might be polluted, it i 3 easy to take in germs that may cause serious illness. If you enjoy diving, leant to dive properly and make certain the area of water in which you plunge is right for diving. It is wise, also, to check with your doctor if you intend to dive, since people with sinus or ear trouble can be seriously injured in diving. In short, if you exercise common sense and avoid taking foolish chances, swimming can be an enjoy able, healthful summer pleasure, free from harrowing experiences and seri ous accidents. ~ : No Job Is Too Tough When the trouble lies deep in the motor of your auto, you can depend upon our experienced mechanics to get to the bottom of it.
