duction champion. This rec
ognition is made on the
basis of all peanuts a grow
er produces on all,pf the
acreage he grows. Mr. By
rum’s crop averaged 4,459
pounds Os peahuts per acre
on his bntir4 acreage. This
yield was aided by good
weather but it didnjt just
happen. Isaac folHo w e d
through on all recommend
ed practices including shal
low cultivation. He inform
ed me that he applies Ter
raclor as recommended ev
ery year and does not take
e chance on trouble with
southern stem rot. Growers
who expect the possibility of
stem rot trdhble may do well
to apply Terraclor now to
prevent the disease.
The Home Garden: The
home garden is wonderful
from which' to get health
giving vegetables and save
on the grocery bill. I rea
lize that at. times the gar
den is a bother to- our regu
lar farm operation and other
occupations, yet a good gar
den produces more actual
Value than any other spot
on the farm or around the
home. Pests ate numerous,
grass, Weeds, -insects', dis
eases and nematodes and
maybe others, but these can
be controlled if we will only
take a little time. Last Sat
urday Miss Ruth pickled the
snap beans in our garden
and informed me that we
had some bean beetles. I
immediately went out with
the duster and applied 5 per
cent sevin. The beetles
were- just starting to do
• some damage. We must
keep in mind that an ounce
of prevention is worth more
than a pound of cure.
July is here and time to
get the fall planting under
way. If there are plants
that are not looking right,
especially tomatoes, carefully
dig up a plant by the roots
and see if there aVe knows
or gaUls on the roots. If
there are gauls present, you
have a nematode problem
and the only solution is to
get out or fumigate the soil
to control the pest. In this
Case fumigate the soil be
fore planting the fall crop.
Call on us for information if
you need it.
Do you have a black
sooty substance on the
leaves of your gardenias yr
other plants? If so, most

Compliance
Representatives of the Cho
wah County ARCS office
have visited approximately 94
per cent 6"f all tiffins for
which acTea'ge determinations
are to be made under 1966
programs. A notice of meas
ured acreage will be mailed
to the operator of each farm
on which acreage determina
tions are, made. Farmers are
urged to pay close attention
to this notice in order to
comply with programs re
quirements in connection with
disposition of excess acreage
and adjustment of deficient
diverted acreage.
Where insufficient diverted
acreage is designated and no
additional acreage is added,
no payment can be made un
der the feed grain program.
This also applies to excess
feed grains (corn and grain
sorghum). The determined
acreage must be within an
established tolerance to even
earn payment. Payments
will be reduced if the acre
age is within the tolerance
but below the intended di
version or if the feed grain
is more than that permitted.
Notiees have been mailed
so most farmers and those
who haven’t received one,
will in a few days. Inten
tions must be stated within
15 days from the date the
notice is mailed.
1967 Wheat Program
Some of the major provis
fested with white fly. These
are tiny white insects that
fly out of the bush when
you shake it. To control
these, you may spray with
25 per cent malathi'on mixed
at the rate of two teaspoon
fuls to a gallon of water.
Repeat the spray in about
three weeks or whenever
the insects are noticed again.
Bag worm ruin many ar
borvitae and other cedrus
type plants each year, yet
they are so easily controlled.
Spray or dust the plants
thoroughly with any good
stomach poison such as ma
lathion, DLT, Toxaphene or
any good cotton insecticide.
Remember, keep chemicals
out of the reach of children.
Read the label and follow
the instructions.
ions of the 1967 wheat pro
gram have been announced
by the Secretary of Agri
culture. He stated that the
provisions for next year’s
crop will assure increased
production of needed wheat
and at the same time will
bring producers more in
come.
Allotments are being in
creased approximately 15%.
Notices of farm allotments
were mailed a few days ago.
One of the major changes
in the 1967 program is there
will be no required or addi
tional diversion. This means
that producers who comply
with their allotment will
earn certificate payments
without having to leave any
land idle. There are other
provisions of the 1967 wheat
program which will be an
nounced later.
Social Security Numbers
The county ASCS office
Has been advised to collect
social security numbers from
all producers (owner, land
lord, operator, tenant and
sharecropper). Form 3435-A,
Request for Identifying Num
ber - Farmer, will be mailed
to all producers that we do
not have a record of a social
security number. When you
receive this form, please re
turn as soon as possible.

And just as surely —we
have the obligation to obey
His commandments!
We have nothing to lose
(and so much to gain) by
giving our lives to God. By
so doing we grow as in
dividuals; we enrich our
souls; we bring pleasure,
happiness and comfort to
those around us; and we
bring joy to our Heavenly
Father, because of the great
love He bears us.

WAIT FOR DEER
When you spot a deer don’t
move a muscle. Stand ab

flicks his tail. Then shoot.
Reason: When you spot him
he is probably poised to
spring. If he flicks his tail
he has relaxed ... . enough
to give you-a quick shot.
