Cold Weather ‘Nips’ Ornamental Plants Boxwood, peonies, ivy and oth er ornamental plants , suffered ireally from the severe winter just pasl. and more particularly from the ’’cold snaps” during the early spring, says Howard R. Garriss. assistant Extension plant pathologist of N. C. State College, He reports that more than 100 specimens of box plants suffering from cold injury have been re ceived for diagnosis recently by the college plant disease labora tory. ’’The cold damage was especially evident in the piedmont section.” Garriss declared. “In most cases the killing out of plants took place where box b’ushes -were weakened and suffering the ef fects of ’Jie drought last summer, or from other condditions.’’ The specialist said that fortun ately only the young tender shoots stimulated into new Sunday School At Armory Hall Begun Every Sunday afternoon at 2:30 in the armory building there is being conducted a Sunday school under the auspices of the Young ^dults of the North Wil kesboro Presbyterian church. This Sunday school is to be non-de- nominatlonal In character and it is hoped that many different de nominational groups will be rep resented every week. The Inter national lesson is to be studied and there will be classes for all groups. I The use of the armory is madi possible through the courtesy of Captain Ralph Reins and other officials of the National Guard Unit of this community. The first session of the Sunday school was held last Sunday and there was a very encouraging number present. It is felt that this school will grow rapidly and that it will accomplish much good in the community. Everyone is welcome. News was received last week by Mr. and Mrs. G. F. Barnett, of Elk township, that their son, Ronald Barnett, aged 32 years, had been seriously injured in an automobile wreck on the high way near Butte, Montana. While very little information has been obtained about the wreck, it is reported that a truck, while pass ing another car, ran head-on into the car occupied by Mr. Barnett and another man, the latter be ing Instantly killed. Latest news from Mr. Barnett is to the effect that his condi tion is slightly improved. Large SaTaries Exempted From State UCC Tax Raleigh.—Employers subject to the N. C.

Where only young shoots are killed, the plants should soon recover with continu ed warm weather. Wheie only twigs have been killed, the plant pathologist re commends that these.be primed out and the bushes be sprayed thoroughly with a 4-4-50 Bor deaux mixture every two weeks until continued hot weather pre vails. The reason for pruning out the dead wood, he ’explained, is to prevent para.sites from living over and probably infesting the healthy wood. If diseases are present, the spray will tend to prevent their spread. Plants heretofore healthy and vigorous, but weakened by the cold weather, will be more sub ject to disease and they should I be sprayed regularly during the current season. FREE!

In case of change of status of an employer, however, by closing down Or disposing of the busi ness, by receivership, trustee ship or other fiduciary, then all reports and payments will be due immediately. The postponement of such payments, until April 25 of next year, is provided to await the action of the 19'41 General As sembly. If that body should en act an amendment to the State law, allowing this reduction from April 1, 1940, and thereafter, then the records would be closed. If the General As-sembly should fail to adopt such an amendment for this year, .then the Commis sion would be required to collect the unpaid difference, this collec tion to be made as of April 25, 1941. There is no provision for re fund of contributions paid to April 1 on salaries in excess of $1,000.00 a month, on which em ployers would have paid on more than $3,000.00 through the month of March, for which month reports and payments are to be made a'i usual.

A’FIOHT FOftiOVE V —fcy - My remarks last week about the relation of Religion to mental health calls to mind that it was religious people who first estab lished homes for the kindly treat ment of insane people. These un fortunate people with their “cries of anger, agony and frustration induced -by intolerable confine ment, mingled with the endless clanging of chains and the cracks of keepers’ whips,” awakened the sympathy of the Quakers. It was in Yorkshire, England In 1796 that the first institution was built to treat insanity with kindness. It was named “The Re treat” and was Sipoken of as “a quiet haven in which the shat tered hark might find the means of reparation and safely.” Some, twenty years later the Quakers'established a similar in stitution in the United States. It was named the “Friends Asylum” and was opened at Frankford, Pennsylvania in 1817. Its purpose was to replace chains, strait-jack ets, strong-rooms and whips by "tender, sympathetic attention and religious oversight.’’ in order that agitated minds might be re stored to sanity. Forestry Farming One-third of the available tim ber acreage In the United States is in farm woodlands. Owners of these lands are in a better posi tion to use good forest practices than almost any other type of woodland owner, say foresters' at the U. S. Forest Products Labora tory, Madison, Wis. The farmer- forest owner can control fire hazards and grazing, cut deform ed, dead, or unmarketable trees for fuel, or systematically thin his timber so that the remaining trees will grow faster. He can plant saleable species in places that will not seed naturally. He can. also harvest his timber when it will bring the best price. Managed as a crop, the farm woodland can renew itself and yield a return indefinitely. The farmer’s land is protected from erosion and his water supply safe guarded. Forest resources provide the farm family with building material, firewood, and restricted additional pasture for livestock. Contim atlon of the many bene fits furnished by farm woodlands and forests depends upon more care in handling these timbered areas as crop. It is a corrective and constructive enterprise of great importance to cur future as a people.
