Farmer, Gives Ills Experience

Feb. 21, 194?.
King, X. C.
To the Editor of The Reporter:
Please "How me space in y, :
paper to advise the farmers who
are bothered with blue mold on
th"i" tobacco plant beds to boil
the cloths 10 to 15 minutes be
fore covering their bods. Yon
can take a hog scaldor and boii
them rapidly 10 to 15 minutes,
then spread out to dry. Fold
| when dry till time to use. If a
person does this and sees the
'water after the cloths have boil -
!
, ed, they will have a general idea
'of whore blue mold is creai 5 J
i
from year to year.
I I have tried this and I think if |
I i
the people will do the same, they j
will usually get their crops pla..t
ed before the ljk:e mold sU'l:esj
the bed so badly.
! For example a person wouldn't
I take a blanket oil' a tuberculosis
, patient's bed and put it on a
'
l healthy person's bed.
1 I do not advocate using straw
on a plant bed to keep cloths off
the ground. In just a few days
the straw gets wet and moldy
the small plants have to cor«e up
i through it. I think it is best to
I
use small wickets to keep fie
cloths off the ground and to let
. the sun hit the soil. I sincerely
believe that straw is the oause
of blue mold. It doesn't cost any
thing to try this simple remedy
;! just a little extra effort.
| j Yours truly,
R. c- WHITE.
