a serious Irish potato disease most
generally found in Western North

L. W.' Nielson, associate profes

author of the 14-page publication,

trol of late blight Is based on kill
ing spores before they enter the
plant or tuber.

Several davs a an a barn was bur

Today, as ki World War nV American Labor takes its place firmly behind the man behind the gun
in Korea. Unlettered. and strong, the American workman once again is proving to the world that he
can outproduce the shackled slave of the totalitarian state. The slave, who works long hours under
miserable conditions and the relentless eyes of the secret police, can still never hope to remotely ap- '
proach the standard of living which the American laborer has come to enjoy. On this Labor Day,
Americans pause to take stock, of their Industrial accomplishment, and then with determination
-'urn to thetask of arming our bastion of democracy.

Nielsen first discusses how blight
attacks the potato and then re
veals ways of controlling the di
sease. .
Nielsen writes, "At the market
place, North Carolina's potato
growers must offer an attractive
quality product. Among other
things, his means they must con-
trol late blight."
Annliratinn nf fnncicide is one
of the means of protecting vines
in Western North Carolina and in
the East whenever blight is pres
ent. The publication may be obtain
