Shanklin, Extension cotton speci&list at State College, but if farmers -will investigate their next year’s seed requirements at an early date, thfere should be no reason why everyone cannot get have already pldlcei orders 'for 1,200 tons of Certified Coker 100 wult resistant seed, Mr. Shanklin said. These seed will come most ly from Mississippi, Alabama, and Georgia where the ■ past season !has been favorable for cotton i ' haiwesting. ^ Mr. Shanklin suggests that each farrner who is interested in lo cating seed for next year’s crop, get in touch -with his'county a- gent.' as mans’ s^ed as he needs. ■\Veather conditions for the past few ’weeks in the Piedmont Counties have camaged the cot ton 'Seed to the extent that most of ’ute farmers in that area will have, to rely on outside sources for their seed next year, he said. Heretofore, farmers in that sec tion of the state have been sup- plj’ing a large amount of the need used by growers in other coun ties.

Fields of small graih 'in aliiiost every 'section of the State are being attacked by plant lice, says James T. Connerj ie charge of Entomology for the State College Extension Service. Oats, especially those planted early, is the crop Tfeing attacked most widely by the little insects, Mr. Conner saJdi However, they have also been'found in fields of w'heat and barley^vvas. well as in pastures and forage crops. Usually plant lice, qr aphids as they are known byi raatfty, attack the plants in large numbers. They damage the plant by sucking the juices from it, causing it to gra dually wilt and die. Now that coldi weather is pre vailing over most of the State, it is quite possible that many of the plant lice will destroyed, the Entomologist said. But, where in festation is continuing and as a preventative for further infesta tion, Mr. Conner recommends that an application of nitrogen be placed on the grain. This will not kill the- aphids, hut it will promote a more vigorous grdwth o*f the plants and will make them less susceptible to further dam age- . Such a preventative is also suggested for pasture and forage crops, Mr. Conner said. . sticker showing that it is in a safe and approved condiion.
