WILLIAMS County Health Officer The town of Jamesville has recon ditioned the City Hall and the health department has completely furnish ed it. This will be our fourth branch of the Martin County Health De partment and every Monday it will be open from 9 until 3 o'clock. The mornings will be given to vaccina tions and other services that a health department can give to the people of that community and the after noons the V-D clinic will be held for those people needing the syphilis and gonorrhea treatment On the second Tuesday of each month from 1 p. m. until all work is completed the regular prenatal and infant clinic will be held. We hope the people of the com munity will take advantage of the services especially at this time of tin year when malaria is so preva lent. We mean by this that those peo ple suffering with the disease and are unable to have a private physi cian can have their blood examina tions made any Monday morning and those whom we find infected and un able to buy quinine, treatment will be furnished free. Control For 2 Cotton Insects Is Suggested A way to kill "two bugs with one stone" is suggested to cotton grow ers by J () Howell, extension en tomologist of N C. State College. He has placed in the hands of county farm agents a copy of a publication which describes control of boll wee vils and cotton aphids with a single poison mixture The new publication is U. S De partment of Agriculture Leaflet No. K 538. "Dusting for Boll Weevil and Cotton Aphid Control." The leaflet describe* a De'ms-Caloium Arsenate* fnrxttire which?Government scien-1 lists have found effective for the control of the two destructive cot ton insects. Howell said that county agents would be glad to discuss cotton in sect control with farmers, and are m a position to obtain additional copies of the new Federal publica tion They also have available copies of the N. C State College Extension Folder No. 45. "Boll Weevil Con trol." In reporting on boll weevil condi tions, Rowell said that infestation is very serious this season in spotted areas. I have made a rather exten sive study of the boll weevil situa tion m the cotton counties," the en tomologist said, "and I find that wee vil infestations are very severe in some 4-ields, negligible itr oth ers. "For instance." he continued, "one cotton field in an a~rea~~will reveal very high percentage of damaged squares while another field u hun died yards away appears to have no damaged squares. Such a condition makes it important that the cotton grower keep a close check on weevil infestation. Accurate infestation counts will aid the grower in deter mining whet lie i to dust his entire cotton crop or employ the 'spot dust ing' method." Former Resident Of Martin County Dies ' ?
