Sponsored By the Woman's
Club Has Support of the
Town and Kiwanians
♦
Sponsored by the Woman's Club and
supported by the town commissioners
and the Kiwanis club, next week has
been teet 'aside as '"Town CJlean-up
Week." While the success of the
movement rests with the people of the
town, th Woman's Club is having its
special committees formulate plans in
( an effort to aid the movement.
, That section of the law requiring
ownef» to clean up their vacant lots,
has been officially cited to the public,
and while it is not the desire of the
authorities to prosecute any cases, it
is their desire to have the jteople join
in the clean-up movement. Special
arrangements will be made to tnovc
alt trash, but the property owners will
find it necessary to collect it in con
venient piles for the stceet "cleaners. --
Each year, a clean-up movement has
been observed here, jfhd the one this
year is expected toAe the most thor
ough ever planned. Commenting on
th undertaking, Women's Club rep
resentatives had the following to say:
"Since the paving of our streets and
sidewalks, the civic pride as well is
individual pride in the beauty and at
tractiveness of our pretty old town
hat increased several hundred points.
The home owners have more than ever
before fixed up, cleaned up, and beau
tified their premises, this spring But
since there are still some vacant lots
and other premises around town that
still need . attention, the city fathers,
the Kiwanis Club, and the Woman's
Club have joined their strength to
gether to completely clean up the
whole town. The publicity for the
work is under direction of Mrs. S. R
Biggs, chairman of the civic commit
tee with the members of that commit
tee from the Woman's Club.
"The colored people are especially
urged to enter in this campaign. In
order that we may rid the town of
flies we are asking everybody to join
in this clean-up -crusade. The town
will furnish plenty of extra draya or
trash carts next week, and if the carts
do not get around, a call to the mayor's
office will bring one at once.
"This is such an important matter
we hope everybody will take interest
enough to clean up all their premise*
and vacant lots."

Blaze Sweeps Over Six City
Blocks There Late Last
Sunday Afternoon
•
Fire, sweeping over six blocks
along Norfolk's water front late Sun
day afternoon, resulted in a property
loss estimated at about three million
dollars and injury to more than fifty
firemen an& citizens.
Starting in or near the Buxton Lines
warehouse on the Old Dominion piers,
the blaze, swept by a strong wind,
rapidly spreaded to other buildings
and an hour after the first alarm, a
general call was made to fire com
panies all over Norfolk, Portsmouth,'
the U. S. Navy Yard, Newport News,|
* Suffolk and Elizabeth City. One fire
engine and 3,000 feet of hose, belong
ing to the City of Norfolk and valued
at more than $25,000, were destroyed
in attempt check the blaze that
sent smoke and sparks over a targe
area of the city.
Several firemen were badly burned,
one seriously daring the more thin
four hours that the fire was out of
control. v
A report stated that the blaze start
ed from an explosion on a boat, but
it was not official, however.
The firemen and apparatus used
were pushed back block by block until
a stand was taken with more than
seventy streams of water turned on
the blaze. Several fire boats worked
on the blaze from points just off the
burning docks. One boat, operating
between points along the Atlantic
seaboard, was damaged by the blaze,
it was stated.
Occupants of two hotls, near the
scene of the vast blaze, left their
rooms, but neither of the two build
ings were burned.
The fire was described as one of
the worst in the history of Norfolk.

TOBACCO FIELDS
THREATENED BY
BUD WORM NOW
»
Agent Tells of Methods for
Controlling Bud and
Horn Worms
•
Escaping with little or no resulting
damage from blue mold disease, many
tobacco, fields in this county are now
I threatened by the tobacco bud worm,
j according to- County Agent T. H„
Brandon. During the past few days,
j the agent has received many reports
'from farmers throughout the countv,
stating that the pest was doing much
j damage to the crop.
| Mr. Brandon, discussing the worm
| and methods for its control, stated:
I "Tobacco worms are well-known
I pests to North Carolina tobacco grow
lers. There arc two kinds of worms
' responsible for the damage, as most
I growers know. (I) the tobacco bud
I worm; (2) the tobacco horn worm.
I The pests cause many thousands of
| dollars' damage to the tobacco crop
jeach year, and growers should make 1
j every effort to control these insects.
| "The tobacco bud worm is closclv
related to the corn ear worm and feeds
in the tips of the growing plants. The
best known method of control is*to
apply poisoned corn meal to the buds.
Mix 1 pound of arsenate of lead with
75 pounds of corn meal (or 6 heaping
teaspoonfuls of ! arsenate of lead to I
peck of corn meal.) »
Carefully mix the poison through
out the corn meal. The meal should
not contain much Coarse husk. About
12 pounds of the mixture (arsenate of j
lead and corn meal) or 1 peck per |
square is necessary for each applica
tion.
"})o not substitute Paris gre.ci|, 'cal
cium arsenate, or any other poison for
the arsenate, of lead.. Do not substi
tute any other material for the corn
meal.
"A small pinch of the poison mix
ture should be dropped into the center
of bud. Applications carelessly made j
are of no value. When the buds arc
closed they should be opened with one
hand and the mixture dropped in with
the other. Do not apply too much of j
the poison mixture at an overdose"will
injure the plants.
"From three to five applications dur
ing a season will usually give control.
Applications should be begun when a
careful examination of the buds show
that the worms are becoming numer
ous. The applications should be made
i a week apart.
"The tobacco horn worm is well
known by all tobacco growers. The |
damage by this pest is often very Be- i
vere. Arsenate of lead applied as a j
dust has given best results in the con- (
trol of the horn worm. As a dust, |
the arsenate of lead should be applied i
at the rate of 3 1-2 pounds to S pounds j
per acre. If applied as a spray, use
from 3 to 4 pounds of arsenate of lead
to 100 gallons of water.
"The "one*in-six" mixture (1 pound
of paris green with 5 pounds of arse
nate of lead) used for the flea* beetle
will control the horn Worm. See cir
cular on tobacco flea beetle for infor
mation about the tobacco flea ljeetle.
"Use only poisons which are advised. (
Do not substitute any other material (
for those recommended.

'tobacco horn worm write for Farm
ers Bulletin 1356, 'The Tobacco Horn
Worm.'"

Finish Revaluation
Williams Township
DISTRICT FIRST
I TO END WORK
UNDER NEW LAW
♦
Real and Personal Property
Values Drop from $452,-
000 To $401,000
—• -
With the possibility that a few ad
justments will be made later on, prop
erty revaluation in Williams Township
was made complete last ..Saturday, the
district being the first to complete the
work in accordance with the new law
passed in connection with the revalu
ation of properties.
According to a report made by Mr.
Lucian Hardison, lister in the town
ship, property values there dropped |
from $452,000 in 19.10 to $401,000 this I
year, a decrease q£. approximately 11.3 (
per cent. Fourteen thousand of the
fifty-one thousand dollar loss was re
ported in personal property values,
.placing the percentage loss in real
itate values at nine and one-half per
'cent. The loss is within one-half of
J one per cent of the decrease allowed
iby the recent law passed by the State
j legislature, and leaves an adjustment
margin of only SI,OOO, Mr. Hardison"
stated. • . j
It was learned from the report filed |
by Mr. Hardison that approximately"'
10 per cent of the property in the town
ship was raised in value,' but the greats'
er portion of the values were lowered
or were left unchanged.
While the personal property loss was
$14,000, as-compared with $37,000 real
estate drop, the personal percentage
decrease is greater in proportion to the
percentage loss in real estate values.
Other townships in the county are
working feverishly to effect adjust
ments within the 10 per cent limit al- (
lowed by law. In those districts
where the revaluation work B was com- 1
pleted before the legislature established
the 10 per cent reduction limit in real
values, the wort is being recheckc'l
and values are raised where occasion
demands.

I he new school "law provides that

except under extraordinary circum
stances, it the average daily attendance
during the preceding year was less*
than 22. I'he same provision is car
ried for high schools, with aii average
daily attendance of .less tlian 50.
j I sing these figures as a basis of as

tors that might be brought into con

.However, it was unofficially learned
that the proposed consolidations will
not fie effected -it facts and figures,
Isupported by the minutes of the coun
ty educational body, show that the

under the present system than they
can be under tile consolidation plan.
A complete interpretation of the law
is riot available at this time, hut there
arc approximately 45(1 small elemen

j Carrying out of the law will mean
lliat about hall of the '

While all indications would lead one
to believe that he was building a fill
