I publishers have adopted a similar point of view. More than 100,000 ministers will urge 31,000,000 churchgoers to send truly reverent Christmas greetings this year, according to the National Council of Churches. “It’s good taste, good sense, to celebrate Christmas in a more Christian way,” the social arbiters agree. As a result, m ■/ Christmas card publishers assigned their most talented craasmen to recreate colorful Biblical'scenes of that star-flecked night when the Babe of Bethlehem was born. What’s more, the nation has responded quickly, for handsome religious greetings, like those above, are already in heavy demand. j fpi VW,fr*/WsrA:^*'nwJr^/ir'rr ■' ?<f4y —*1§ <| <s3*. «-*!

If you do not know what scale insects look like, call in your county farm agent or some horticultural friend who .is familiar with them. If your trees are infest ed with scale it is important that you do something about it. ! Scale insects are very small suck ing insects that attach themselves to the twigs, leaves and branches ox shrubs and trees and proceed to suck the life out of them. As scon as they are attached to the twig they con-’ struct, a tough scale covering over themselves for protection. That is THE CHOWAN HERALD, EDENTON, N.

In order to kill the insects it. is necessary to use a spray material that will penetrate the scale covering. Such a spray would be too strong to use during the growing season be cause it would also damage the plants. Therefore, we muse spray for scale in sects during the dormant season when the plants are not growing and de ciduous tree 3 are free of leaves.

Oil sprays should not be used in treating weather. Be cause of its fungicidal action especial ly on peach trees it is preferred to use Lime-Sulphur spray late in the dormant season. Also at this time cf the year we may find a number of spindle shaped cocoons or “bags” hanging on the twigs of our narrow-leaved ever greens. Many of these “bags” con tain eggs of the bagworm which will hatch out into caterpillars in early summer.
