MALARIA FOUND
! CLOSE TO TOWNS
i IN TWO COUNTIES
TV A Suggetts WPA i
Fund to End Danger:
? 5 Cases Reported
For the first time In the history of
this section. Malaria Is here. Tw.
ca^es were reported to Health Offi
cer Whichard from the Hiwassee
Dam: three in Graham county, near
llu Nantahala dam.
According to Dr. Whichard. a
I yearly recurrance. and possible spread
[of the disease can only be banished
by thorough spraying of all stand
ing water, riddance of all weeds near
water, ar.d filling in the thousand
of holes and depressions which now
trap water when back-ups from the
dam cause streams to overflow their
banks.
The Health Officer reported the
outbreak of malaria to the TVA
authorities some six wee!:s ago. when
the first cases were found, at Hiwas
cee dam. He says Engineers and
sprayers were sent. He said, however,
that this was not enough for futurr
protection.
The TVA has advised that a WPA
appropriation be sought to eliminate
the menace. Even should a WPA
fund be gotten, however. Dr. Which -
ard said, expert professional direc
tion would be necessary to insure
the desired result. A11 the territory
adjacent to streams would have to be
minutely examined to locate holes
and depressions that would have to
be filled in: and experts would he
needed to see that the work was
properly done.
As a result of his malaria report.
Dr. Whichard said, the level of waters
in Cherokee County had been lower
ed. He added that the State is aid
ing the local office in working for
mosquito control: but stated that
this work wars necessarily limited.
Dr. Whichard mentioned specific
places which he described as "ideal
breeding places for mosquitoes", but
said his office had neither the funds
nor the man-power to eliminate
them. He suggested that the town
and county combine in an urgent
plea to the TVA for aid, promising
that his office would do "everytring
in its power to back them up".

Conservation Districts
operate in 32 Counties
One-third of North Carolin*, i
32 counties lying between the middle
Coastal Plain and the Blue Ridjt
Mountains, is now included in the It
active soil conservation districts.
W. D. Lee, extension soil conser
vationist of State College, explained
that each of these districts was or
ganized as a voluntary cooperative
move ori the part of land-ovners to
control erosion and build up the soil
This is being accomplished throart
the use of good conservation pnt
tices.
During the first half of this year,
activity in these districts has been
varied as well as extensive. Mucb
educatio lal work was conducted to
enaHe interested farm-r^ to receive
definite information on the district
program. In all. 157 meetings were
held with a total attendance of
5,906.
Fifteen soil conservation tours were
conducted by county and hone
agents of the State College Exten
sion Service to farms having com
plete programs in cooperation with
the districts. At each stop, the oper
nt <v nf the farm led the group over
his place, explaining each part ol
the program and how he established
the various practices.
CCC assistance was given without
cost to those farmers within w^lt
range of one of these camps. The
labor was used in establishing prac
tices which normally are beyond the
resources of the average fanner.
Such work has included terrace
outlet construction, building meado*
strips or vegetated waterways,
control measures, timber stand
provements, reforestation, and reo
cating fences. In the first hal 0
