CHARLTON, Cliltr Nagl* kM »■ !■«■»«» Accat In working on our goals to have families use “enriched” cornmeal and to make better breads, a training school was held Saturday for Junior 4-H Club members carrying bread making as a project. Twenty-one 4-H Club girls were given training in making and judging cornmeal muffins. Four-H Club members learn by doing. They must make and serve muffins at home if they are to retain what they learned at the training school. One re quirement on this project is for the 4-H Club girl to make and serve muffins at least six times. So parents see that your daugh ter is given the opportunity to make and serve enriched corn bread to your family. She learns by doing.

I believe it’s ■ because of: (1) bad weather. Cl) lack of planning and. (31 ; improper pest control. < The weather in July and Au gust is often too dry. too wet or i too hot; temperatures we can't j easily change. Irrigation and, | mulching will reduce dry weath-i er damage. Planting on a slight j ridge in a spot with good air' 'and soil drainage can tend to' reduce damage from excessive i i rams. In the spring the warming weather and the budding trees, , tell us it’s time to start garden- j ing. We don’t have such a tim-i ] ing device for fall gardening, j j thus bv the time we think about j j planting a fall crop it’s often! j too late. The best way to get around this is to sit down, early j in the year, and make a written! 1 planting plan, month by month. 1 and then follow the plan. Many insects and diseases are killed out by our winter weather. Some of these pests over-winter in Florida and work their way! up to our State as the weather warms up in late spring and summer. Once these pests are ( here, however, they’re here toj stay until the cold weather! knocks them out again. This! means that when we plant a j fall crop it is often subject to I attack from the dav it comes] up until harvest. This makes! j dusting or spraying early ex-! j tremelv important. With proper care, however, a good fall gar-; j den can be grown in North j Carolina.” VFW MEETS TUESDAY j William H Coffield, Jr..
