Social Security Changes Listed By DORIS H. MOSS Social security is a program designated to protect you and your family against loss of in come due to retirement, death, or disability. This protection against the economic hardships connected with severe and long lasting disability is a compara tively new feature in the law. To be considered for disability benefits, you must have worked in covered employment for at least 5 years out ofthe 10 year year period ending when you be came disabled. Tb be eligible for disability benefits you do not have to be completely helpless but you must have a disability Distributed In This Area By Electric Bottling Co., Inc. WILMINGTON, N. C. which is so severe that in the words of the law, it makes you unable to "engage in an^ substan tial gainful afctivity.” it must be a physical or merital condition which is reasonably expected to continue indefeinltely dr to re sult in death. At the end of 1960 about 58 disability insurance beneficiaries, and about 56 of their dependents were receiving monthly benefits in Brunswick County. If you are disabled or know of someone who is disabled, con tact the nearest social security district office and ask for the booklet, “If You Become Dis abled," OASI-29. Workers who have been disabled for a number of years have until June 30, 1962, to apply for benefits. If your disability is severe, has existed for more than six months and is expected to continue, you may be eligible for disability in surance benefits. If you qualify for these benefits, your wife and minor andjor disabled adults sons and daughters may also be eligible. Remember, no benefits are payable until an application is filed.

AMERICA IS STILL GROWING! There are mainy rea sons for us to have confidence in our country, and hot the least of these is the remarkable record our industries have achieved. Since 1900, our gross national prodiict has increased at the average rate of 3% per year, from $79 billion at the turn of the century, to $503 billion in 1960. This gross national product will be rapidly approaching the $1 trillion mark by .1975—another good reason toi confidence in a growing Amcri^ ^ Garden Time By 51. K. GARDNER N. C. State College A delightful letter was received this week from a lady reader in Ashe County. Her enthusiasm for and knowledge of plant materials, and processes, is proof positive that when we speak of “the joy of gardening.” it is something very real to her. Her chief interest right now is the coleus, so here goes. This plant is one of the most useful of all colored foliage plants especially for bedding, edging, massing, pots for patio and ter races and indoor window boxes. There are three classes, their dis tinction being based on the size of their leaves. Probably the most used is the kell-known small leaved class of which there are numerous named varieties which are propagated from cuttings. Next in foliage size would come the brilliant Rainbow class. The foliage of this type is medium in size and the plants, wnile rather large and vigorous, are quite free-branching and bushy. It is easily grown from seed which is available not only in mixture but in separate colors which re produce quite true to type. Ainang these are Red, Ping and Scarlet Rainbow, Pastel, Velvet arid Golden Rainbow and Candi dum. The third class is known as Giant Exhibition and is distin guished by its extra large leaves. It is taller growing and does not branch as freely as the Rainbow type, but when well grown, leaves over a foot across are not un common. Of all the classes, probably Rairibow is the more popular be cause it can be used to better advantage due to the moderate size of foliage. You will also be pleased with the brilliant colors. This type does well in semi shaded areas. Coleus may be grown as an annual from seed, or, as a peren nial if yoU are equipped to pro vide temperature requirements of around 65-70 degrees during the winter. If used as a perennial, cuttings may be made from stock plants and easily rooted in clean coarse sand which should be kept moist, not too wet, at all times. Seed sown in early March should provide bedding plants about the middle of May. This is about the right seeding date for the mountains. In eastern Carolina seed may be sown about a month earlier. Watch the plants closely for mealy bugs and remove them by hand before they have a chance to reproduce. If a heavy infesta tion does build up. spray thorough- j Iv with Malathion—two table- | spoonfuls of 25 per cent wettable powder in one gallon of water. 4-H Club News By JAMES E. GOFF Assistant County Farm Agent The Community 4-H Clubs of Brunswick County were shown several short films during their November monthly meeting. The films were entitled “Safety Our No. 1 Crop”, “The Promise and the Glory” and “A Look at Soviet Agriculture.” Every club member and adult who viewed them seemed to enjoy them very much. Each club member was given their Health Record Book. It was explained to them the importance of health to everyone. They are to complete the health project book by February. This is a pro ject carried by everyone in 4-H Clubs. Permit Grazing On Diverted Land All persons participating in the 1961 feed grain diverted acreage program are now permitted to graze livestock on that acreage, according to ASC office manager Ralph Price. Price stated on Monday that the ASC came to the above de cision in consideration of the problem faced by some producers in the unreasonable cost of fenc ing the diverted acreage off. Affected in Brunswick County are some 581 farmers who had signed the diversion program in 1961, according to Price. Peanut Forecast Based on reports from growers as of November 1, peanut produc tion is forecast at 312,400,000 pounds. Yield per acre is forecast at 1,775 pounds—35 pounds below last year, but is 273 pounds above the 10-year average of 1,502 pounds. On November 1 an esti mated 40 percent of the crop had been threshed. HOT DOGS— SANDWICHES— TRY DARI - MA»D SHALLOTTE, N. C.
