The use of salt to melt ice !
and snow on highways, walks
and drives seems to foe more
widely used now than ever
before. This winter many
cities and towns are making '
every effort to protect trees |
and shrubs from injury caus- !
ed by the melting ice which ;
carries the salt solution to
the root system. Salt injury
is causing wide-spread c on
cern, according to Dr. (Philip
L. Rusdcn of the Bartlett
Tree Laboratories.
In the New England states
damage has been especially
severe on roadside sugar
maples. In that area, me
chanical barriers are being
employed to carry the salt
water away from the trees,
thus preventing seepage to
the roots of the plants.
In many areas of the coun
try intensified use of salt is
causing injury to nearby
trees and shrubs. Both com
mon salt (sodium chloride)
and calcium chloride are both
toxic to plants, in heavy con
centrations, and may kill
them in a very short time. In
lesser salt concentration solu
tions the roots die more slow
ly. The leaves may exhibit a
scorched appearance, usually
along the margins, and the
Two Accidents
Are investigated
The Edenton Police De
partment investigated two
accidents over the weekend
involving four cars. Total
damages of $340 were esti
mated to the cars.
On Saturday, Debra Dianne
Johnson, 18, of Edenton, was
driving a 1966 Ford and Jo
seph Walker, Jr., 19, of Cres
well, was driving a 1068
Chevrolet. Miss Johnson was
traveling south on Broad
street when Walker, attempt
ing to back his car out of a
larking space allegedly hit
the Chevrolet in the right
front side.
Patrolman McCoy Parker,
investigating officer, charged
Walker with failure to
movement could be made in
safety. Damages of $l5O was
estimated to the Ford and
$25 to the Chevrolet.
Also on Saturday, Walter
Ellis Norman, 18, of Cres
well, was driving a 1970
Dodge and (Rita Diane Flow
ers, 18, of Portsmouth, Va.,
was driving a 1969 Ford.
Norman was parked in Har
dee’s parking lot when Miss
Flowers allegedly backed her
car into the Dodge. Inves
tigation officer Patrolman G.
W. Mizelle charged Miss
Flowers with hit and run
property damage and esti
mated damages of slls to the
'Dodge and SSO to the Ford.
“You’d think he invented
safety.”

terminals may die back caus
ing a rather scorched appear
ance throughout the tree.
When these symptoms are
noted, it is usually too late
to do anything to save the
trees.
Perhaps the most notice
able injury to street and
roadside trees and shrubs oc
curs near school and commer
cial bus stops and along low
lying areas of the highways.
Shallow rooted trees such as
dogwood and maples are
harmed first.
Homeowners often do ex
tensive damage to trees,
shrubs and grass along walks
and drives by over-use of salt
in any form. Signs of brown
ed leaves and retarded
growth, that are characteris
tic of salt injury, are fre
quently mistaken for some
other type of injury, so don’t
compound your problems.
The use of coarse sand or
ashes on sidewalks and drives
is far safer than the use of
salt and not much more
trouble, if you make prepara
tions ahead of the coming of
rough weather.
You might try mixing saw
dust with enough water to
form a wet mash. Broadcast
this over the surface and let
it freeze. When tracked in
the house, it would be easier
to vacuum than either sand
or ashes.

IN THE DARKNESS
By MARY LIZZIE LANE
In the lonely midnight hours
You can hear the owls hooting.
Then you’ll feel cold and shivery,
When you hear the hunters shooting.
Then you’ll begin to turn and wonder
As the fox begins to bark.
And then you’ll really know the difference
From the daylight and the dark.
The winter nights are long and blustery.
And the midnight darkness is all around.
Sometimes we may feel our weakness,
Just brace up, there’s new hope to be found.
When we know the day’s work is over,
And then we’ll settle down to rest.
We should be content and humble
Because we know that we are blessed.
The long and cold winter nights
When everything will seem so still.
That’s when I will read and write,
Until my hungry soul is filled.
In the thickness of the midnight hour,
When you are dreaming of the past,
You’ll awake and then you’ll know
That it was a dream and could not last
And then your eyes will open wide,
You’ll review then .the dream you had.
And you’ll remember the by-gone days,
Then you’ll feel so awfully sad.
In the morning we can hear the rooster crowing,
And the sound will echo in our ears.
• We all should be very grateful,
We've been spared throughout the years.
