The public is invited to attend. Ever Green Church News by Mrm. Leacfe Brook* We've enjoyed a week of Vacation Bible School. We had great attendance. Proud of all the workers who made it possible. The superintendent gave all especially the visitors a hearty welcome. Lesson for Sunday was "The Value of Integrity." The beginning of the Summer quarter will be studied about the life of Job. Job was a perfect man. Much could be said about him. The loss of his wealth,' his health, his family and friends. Then his wife sug gested Job curse God and die. Three of his closest friends came to mourn with him. Notice now, their intention* were good. But They, accused him of having sinned. Through all Job's tests he knew God was on his side. The same God Job was trusting his life and future to. today we lean on the same promise if we'll do as Job 13:15. Though he slays, yet will I trust in him. AH it takes is a deternr nation. 1 do praise G04 today for that desire and determination I have to hold on. In just a little while this life's race will be won and the victory will be mine. As it was with Job, so it is with all God's Eye ??^ hath not seen, nor ear heard what the Lord has in store for all those who will be faithful till the end. Tiying times are here to stay till Jesus makes His return. The life of Job is a great example to us. We can serve God. It takes deter mination. Let's hold on. It won't be long till Jesus comes. Let's be ready. Hea ven will be worth everything we go through here. Just to be able to hear Jesus say, well done, will be wonderful far beyond our explaining. Peace. It looks like everybody would want to go to a place of peace. Pray for all the sick. Mrs. Fannie Lowry is* doing better but still needs our prayers. Mr. Johnnie Wilkins is in Southeastern General Hos pital. He needs our prayers. So many more. " Pray for the ones who have lost their loved ones. I know they're in trouble. I've gone through losing ones you love so much. It's heart breaking. It comes to everyone sooner or later. So be concerned. Just think-it could be you. g I was really proud to have my daughter. Rose, home this week. She works for Mr. Jessie Oxendine who is owner of a couple of drug stores in Charlotte. She loves her job and 11 believe Mr. Oxendine loves her work. She's worked for him for quite some time now. Mr. Oxendine is a native of the Pembroke area, but makes his home in Charlotte. All the workers seem to be real nice people. In visiting with her and the drug store, 1 learned a great deal about the attitude of people. All I met there were nice. Well, Rose, hope you enjoyed spending your vacation with your family as much as we enjoyed having you. Just keep us all on your prayer list. Mrs. Willard (Pearl) Lock lear along with her son, Dwayne and his wife took a vacation in Indianapolis, Ind. visiting with her son. Doctor Jimmy Locklear. While there they visited the Five Hundred Roise on Me memorial Day. In talking with Mrs. Locklear 1 learned her son. Dr. Jimmy Locklear, is now a heart doctor. She's proud of him. So am I. I'm proud of all our Indian young men and women who go out to make a great future for them selves. So many of our young people have turned to drugs for their future. My hat is off to every one who finds they can do something to help people instead of something to make their parents worry. ..shed tears and spend sleep less nights. If Mrs. Locklear sheds tears, 1 feel it is tears of joy. Proud of you. Dr. Lock lear. thought fob today In reading my Bible today. 1 find it says fret not thyself because of evil doers. Psalms 37:1. Prayer is the key that unlocks heaven's door So let's all Christians jom together and pray for the Lord to fix all that needs fixing and tear up all that needs tearing down. praise God. He's able to do just that with enough faith on our part. I can be done. Please pray for us at Ever Green. EXTENSION SCENE ] ? II AGRICULTURAL I EXTENSION I SERVICE JOHN G. RICHARDSON I Observation of problems is an everyday occurrence for Extension agents. While some problems are anticipat ed or even predictable, there are others that creep in as surprises and wind up being extremely difficult to explain or to determine their cause, initially. The heavy rains dur ing the winter and spring have contributed to some problems that have bordered on the extraordinary, or are extremely interesting to say the least. Some of the first problems that arose this growing season in plants were found in cabbage. When Jeff Morton examined the fields of cab bage, he saw symptoms such as slow growth, yellowing, purpling, and extreme cup ping of the cabbage leaves. At first it looked as if we were faced with herbicide residue problems because of all of the oddball symptoms. However, due to the number of farms that reported problems of this type, it was hard to believe that herbicide residues could be creating a problem in so many different locations. By utilizing the numerous diag nostic services that we have readily available for anyone who may wish to avail them selves of such services, plant tissue analyses and soil tests were taken of several fields. The analyses showed us that the nutrient status in those fields was confused at best. However, one general trend stood out. The soil pH usually ranged from 4.4 to 5.0. In addition to the cabbage problems, Everett Davis and other agricultural agents have observed strange deficiency symptoms in com fields. Re cently, in the Pembroke area, Jim Oxendine and Bill Carmi chael of Robeson Farm Ser vices accompanied me to a field that appeared to have something that I called "poor land iyndrome." That was just a simple way of making a supposition that the soil was since the corn that was growing in the fields looked stunted and exhibited a broad range of deficiency symp toms. However, upon taking a problem soil analysis, we were surprised to learn that every single nutrient that is needed for outstanding corn production was present in the soil. But, a low soil PH was also found. Another problem corn sam ple in the Parkton area turned out practically the same. Whereby, extreme phospho rus deficiency symptoms were clearly evident in the corn leaves. However, upon taking a problem sample soil test, we learned that the phosphorus level was quite high. Naturally, as problems like these are observed and a good amount of analysis data is accumulated, one seeks a' common thread which may apply to all of these deficiency problems. That common thread this year has been a characteristic low soil pH. From our vantage point it appears that a vast number of ~ fields may have had a somewhat marginal pH level last year and the extensive rains during the past few months have had a major effect on the soil by decreas ing the pH levels. In addition to the lower pH levels, it also appears that considerable amounts of sul phur have been lost from the soils. Therefore, we are also seeing sulphus deficiencies. Since there is little that one can do in the growing fields to correct these problems, we believe that much of the corn that is showing deficiency symptoms at the present time will rebound as the weather becomes warmer. Nutrients that are present in the soil become more readily avail able due to the increased heat, which acts as a catalyst to speed up the chemical reactions that are constantly underway in soils. Naturally, liming will be required next fall to correct the pH prob lems on a permanent basis. However, for high value crops and home gardens, which are experiencing simi lar problems, products such as gypsum (which is calcium sulfate), ammonium sulfate, or magnesium sulfate may be used to help alleviate some of the deficiency problems that currently exists. All of these products are readily available at farm supply stores, and in the event that magnesium sulfate is not recognized, Epsom salts is the common name that is usually used for this compound. A consider able amount of Epsom salts has already been utlized on tobacco plant beds, and through Clarence Stockton's diligence in recognizing mag nesium leaching on plant beds earlier in the season, many growers were able to respond to deficiency symptoms that were occurring in March. So, if problems exist on your farm or garden, a call to the extension Office is advis ed.
