Garrison Plans Meetings For Study
Of Blue Mold And Insect Control
College Men To
Aid In War On
Tobacco Bed Foes
Scenes of Fatal
Accidents To Be
By E. H. Garrison. Jr.
County Agenit
Next Wednesday, March 15, we
hope to hold two countywide
meetings on blue mold and insect
control on tobacco beds. At this
time we expect to have some of
the State men from the college to
put this on for us. It will be im
possible to cover the whole coun
ty with a series of meetings, so
we are going to try to get by with
two big meetings.
The first of these will be held
at the farm of Tom Evans nfear
Union church. This plant bed is
right near the highway. If the
Weather permits, the meeting will
start around 9:30 in the morning.
The afternoon meeting at 2 p. m.
will be held at the bed of John
Thompson near the old Bunker
Hill peach orchard. This place is
three miles on this side of West
End on the road from West End
toward Eastwood.
These men from the college will
bring along with them the latest
information on spraying and dust
ing and the control of insects on
the beds. Since we had such bad
luck last year with tobacco fdants,
we are trying to get the best and
latest information to our growers
as soon as possible. Please try to
get this word around to your
neighbors or anyone else who may
be interested.
There is a good bit of equipment
on the market now for this type
of work. Some will be satisfactory
and some may not be. The main
thing is to get the spray material
on so that you get complete cov
erage and keep it on. Unless this
is properly done and done at the
right time, there just isn’t much
use of doing it at all.
Letters of instructions have
been mailed to all growers this
week. Please keep this informa
tion handy. If for any reason you
did not get one, we shall be glad
to mail this to you; or, if you
will stop by our office we shall
be glad to give you this informa
tion.
Be sure to watch out for flea
bugs. I am afraid that these may
be doing some damage.
Marked In Red
Beginning March 13, red num
erals in red circles will be used on
the highways of the state to mark
scenes of fatal accidents. Col. C.
R. Tolar, commander of the High
way Patrol, reported today. The
numerals will be three feet high.
The new project was conceived
in line with the Department of
Motor Vehicles’ continuing pro
gram to combat highway fatali
ties.
“Something has got to be done
about this senseless slaughter on
the highways,’’ Col. Tolar stated,
after 15 persons were killed over
the past week end in traffic acci
dents.
Following approval of the idea
by Dr. H. W. Jordan, chairman of
the Highway and Public ‘ Works
Commission, Col. Tolar sent out
instructions to patrol sergeants to
have red circles with numerals,
representing lives lost, stenciled
on the highways in their districts
at the point of each* fatal accident.
Where fatgl accidents occur in a
curve, the red circles will be
placed on the approaches to the
curve with an arrow pointing to
the accident spot.
Some plan for marking sites of
fatal accidents on dirt roads will
be worked out at a later date. Col.
Tolar said.
The circled numerals will be
used on the open highways only,
but Col. Tolar was hopeful that
cities will cooperate in the plan
by using the same system for
marking places of traffic deaths in
municipalities.

CLIP AND PASTE DEPARTMENT—
Other Towns Have Their Troubles Too
From the Kingsport (Tenn.) Jour
nal.
Our neighboring city of John
son City has just given the people
of certain sections outside the cor
porate limits of the city an oppor
tunity to say whether or not they
would like to be included within
the city limits. The residents of
those areas turned down the in-
vitart-ion with an emphatic no,
thank you.
That is the privilege of the
people who lived in those areas.
No one can quarrel with them for
the way they voted. If they felt
that they would get nothing or
very little more in services, in re
turn for paying city taxes, they
were only being sensibly selfish.
But the story does illustrate a
current American problem, which
is, just what is the meaning of
“city limits” in these modern

growth of a city, but with only
one of them paying* the cost of
m.aintaining the city government

It is no wonder, therefore, that
as long as the handicaps of living
outside the city are largely re
moved, people more and more
prefer to build their homes out
side the city and more and more
of those inside the city decide to
cross over. Why not? They make
no sacrifice to- speak of, but they
immediately get out from under
the obligation of paying city taxes.
But this is logic that is relent
less. Because if it is plainly sen
sible for John Jones to move out
and stop paying city taxes, it is
just as sensible for Joe Doaks and
all the rest of the people to go
and do likewise. Naturally no one
expects any mass exodus from the
city, but the movement can be

not at aU what it used to be. The
fact that the city limits could not
at all be recognized nowadays
without sign posts is significant.
There was a time when there
was a sharp distinction between
the people who lived in the city
and the people who lived in the
country. City people had a great
many advantages which the coun
try people did not enjoy. They
traveled on paved streets; they
had sanitation and public utilities;
while the country people traveled
dirt roads, used lamp light and
lived close to nature. City people
could take advantage of job op
portunities—^offered by manufac
turing plants, stores and offices,
which were cut off from country
people. They had access to amuse
ment and entertainment.
Nowadays, all this is changed.
Modern conveniences and meth
ods of transportation have ex-
tax revenue in the city may
shrink, and the maintenance of
the city’s operation force either
a too heavy burden on the tax
payers, or a curtailment of the
services. , That is not good for
either the in-side or the'out-side.
The distinction that used to ex
ist between “city resident” and
“country resident” could have
been stated with as great a de
gree of truth as between “city
worker” and “country worker,”
because by and large, resident and
worker were synonymc(us. The
picture has changed because that
is no longer true. The city resi
dent and the country resident may
both’ be city workers.
» But the tax is on the “resident,”
not the “worker.” It is not prac
ticable for cities to tax income. It
must put a tax on property.
Therefore, we find a very great

tended the benefits of civilization
beyond the confines of the cities.
The people who live in the coun
try, therefore, are able to work in
the city, draw their income from
the city, live on just as fine a
scale as city people and enjoy
added attractions that country liv
ing gives.
Thus we have two masses of
people, one living on either side
of an arbitrary and imaginary
line, both benefitting from a way
of life rhade possible through the

cannot be done if the people out
side do not feel a sense of finan

them the ir living. It is no ■wonder
that in some places the in-side
group is suggesting that the limits

it used to be.
