Thursday, July 1, 1971 Around Chowan Farms The warm rains that most 5 of Chowan County has re ceived during the last two weeks have done wonders for our crops. Most fields of r market corn and field corn are dark green and vigorous looking. Peanuts are grow ing fast and will soon be peg ging. Cotton is coming on fast. Mast watermelon and cantaloupe patches look good. Cantaloupes Along with good growth some problems are occurring. Altemaria di sease has been tentatively identified by Dr. Charles Averre, Plant Pathology Spe cialist, and Bill Reid, Area Vegetable Specialist, in the cantaloupes of Alvin Evans in the Rocky Hock communty. Altemaria is not a new di sease but may be new to us by this name. Altemaria is similar to Downy Mildew in appear ance.

Low moist land is conducive to the disease. If hot humid conditions prevail, the fungus will spread rapid ly and may completely rufn a crop. Maneb and Zinc can be used as a preventive meas ure. Use lYz' pounds of 80% material in 100 gallons of wa ter per acre (trade names for Maneb are Manzate D and Dithone M 22 Special). Re peat in about a week. This treatment also controls Downy Mildew, Brown Spot and Gummy Stem Blight. Cotton Damp weather is ideal for the build-up of 801 l Weevils. However, when we checked scattered fields Mon day, we found no boll weevils and only a few squares punc tured. Os course the squares were very young in most fields; therefore, the boll weevils had not had much time to do their damage. Soon it will be time to ap ply Boron to cotton if you did not use the material In your fertilizer. Boron has been found to be deficient on many of our soils, and helps pre vent the shedding of squares, and bolls, especially duriag dry weather. Now the Boron should be applied as a foliar spray. Use 2Vs pounds of Sol ubar per acre mixed in enough water to get a gocd coverage of the leaves. Peanuts We have had several questions about the use of Bravo and Bcnelate as fungicidal materials. Field tests have indicated that both of these materials are ex cellent for the control of leaf spot on peanuts. Both are spray materials and can be used without skin and eye irritation. Bo t h materials now have a North Carolina Label for use on peanuts. Use both materials every two weeks. Use Bravo W75 v at the rate of l*i pounds per acre. The rate for Benlate is 6 ounces per acre. Benlate is a systemic and will kill existing infectious of leaf spot It has been re ported that Benlate handies very easily. Both Benlate and Bravo are compatible with Sevin; thus fungicide and insecticide can be put out at the same time. Poison Ivy This is the time of year that Poison Ivy is likely to cause skin blis ters, swollen eyes and other discomforts. Poison Ivy is a three leaflet vine commonly found growing in the woods, on fences and trunks of trees. .Poison oak, a variety of the' same plant is not a vine but grows as 12 to 18 inch plant and has similar leaves. Not every one is allergic to poison ivy or poison oak but to those that are it can be real trouble. In most cas es infection occurs because of a direct contact with the plant. Poison Ivy is difficult to kill. The roots spread widely and from even small sections of roots left in the soil, new plants will develop. Chemi cals are often the best means of control. 2, 4-D (Amine Torn) is quite effective if the- poison ivy or poison oak plant is growing in full sun light. If it is in the shade, a mixture of 2, 4-D and 2-4-5-T (Brush Killer) is more effective. Amitrol is another material that is recommended for poison ivy and poison oak control Tom Byrum, 7S, Dies Suddenly HERTFORD Toni Byrum, 76, 601 West Grubb Street, died unexpectedly Sunday at 11:45 A.

Here are some suggestions: Radishes have long been a crunchy favorite all over the world. In Egypt, only the radish leaves are eaten. In China, one kind of radish is grown for the oil in its seeds. We like them fresh but some beets. Here’s a new twist: Cook six to eight beets, scoop out the centers with a spoon and marinate the shells in a mixture of one-third cup vinegar, two-thirds cup oil, one teaspoon salt, one tea spoon sugar and one table spoon horseradish.
