Each plant many blossoms, ι
Each blossom its perfume.
The bees found needed nectar. _

Soil Fumigation
By Dr. C. E. Dieter, Nematologist
The Dow Chemical Company
A primary requirement to pro
duce satisfactory crops is a healthy
plant root system. Many pests
which inhabit the soil are injuri
ous to root systems and interfere
with their normal growth. Appli
cations of soil fumigants is a re
cently developed means of con
trolling these destructive soil-in
habiting pests.
Soil fumigation for the under
ground portions of the plant may
be compared to the application of
insecticides and fungicides to the
top growth. The control of nema
tode and insect pests of roots is
as necessary for good plant growth
as control of insects and diseases
of fruit and foliage. Soil fumiga
tion is not a substitute for good
cultural practices but it is a part
of such practices where condi
tions warrant its use. With few
exceptions soil fumigants are ap
plied prior to planting to allow
aeration and prevent possible
plant injury.
Soil fumigants, applied in the
soil, will volatilize, diffuse and
destroy or greatly reduce nema
todes, insects and diseases which
interfere with normal root deve
lopment. Increases in quantity
and quality of marketable crops
of from 50 to 100% have been re
Iported following fumigation «of
nematode-infested soils.

petitive examination, in which
the advancements were granted to
those receiving the hjghset scores,
I am very proud that he was one
ment to Radioman Third Class.
We in the Navy are proud of oui
service and of the men who serve
with us. Your son, Joseph, has an
important role to play in oui
country's national defense and is
doing a fine job. I know you are
proud of him, and we are happy

have been sold but officials of
the local yam auction market an
nounced this week that so long
as some potatoes continued to be
brought in, sales would continue
in Tabor City. Sales will probably
continue for a week or ten days.
The exceptionally warm fall has
made it possible for farmers to
dig yams without danger of cold
hurt as has been the case in late <
harvesting in the past. This has .
made it possible for the local
market to continue selling infairly
large quantities thus far.
The market is well past last
year's total sales with 291,674
bushels sold through last Saturday
at an average price of $4.08 per
bushel. The total amount paid
out for potatoes by the local mar
ket is $1,190,552.78, through last
Saturday.
The Tabor City market sold
254,000 bushels last season at an
average price of $3.86 per bushel.
Changes Made
In Soil Sampling
Two important changes have
been made ins submitting samples
of soil far testing by the soil
sampling laboratory of the State
Department of Agriculture, ac
cording to Charles Raper, Colum
bus County farm agent for the
State College Extension Service.
Mr. Raper emphasized that by
early sampling farmers will be
assured of having soil test results
and recommendations before plac
ing next year's order for lime and
fertilizer.
The changes in the procedure
follow:
There have been two changes in
the procedure for getting soil
samples tested:
First, the information blank has
been revised. This new sheet is
designed to give more information
on soil type, drainage, slope, and
crop rotations to be followed. Ulis
information will be used tö help
interpret soil test results as a
partial substitute for subsoil
samples. Therefore, it is very im
portant that these blanks be filled
in as completely as possible.
Second, subsoil samples are no
longer necessary. To obtain a soil
sample that will be representative
of the area you want tested take
a small uniform core (or slice) of
soil from the surface to a depth
of about 6 inches in 15 or 20 spots.
All of these cores should be com
bined or put in one box and prop
erly labeled. Small areas that dif
fer in color, texture or drainage
should be avoided or sampled sep
arately. More complete instruction
are given on the back of the new
information sheet.
