Tree Insect Poses Threat To Pines The southern pine beetle, one of the most "destructive forest insects in the South, is awake and active again with the arrival of spring. About the size of a rice grain, he is reddish - blown and attacks all sizes and species of pines in North Carolina. The blooming of the dogwood and redbud usually signals the beginning of the insect's active period, although these trees are not attacked. The beetle flys to pine trees and attacks them, first in the middle and upper sections of the trunk. In heavy infestations, they will be lound in all sections of the dunk. North Carolina State University extension forestry and entomology specialists explain that the beetles sometimes attack in epidemic proportions. The causes lor this aren't completely understood. The loss is gicat during these periods. The extension specialists said the presence of the southern pine beetle may be indicated by patches of dead 'and dying trees. Infested trees may have small reddish - brown globs of resin with a hole in the center of each. Ten days to two weeks alter the tree has been attacked, the needles turn yellowish - green. As the infestation piogresses, the needles turn a deep yellow and the beetles leave to infest other trees. If the baik of an infested tree appears to have been riddled by a charge of birdshot Irom a shotgun, the insects have already left the tree. Control is difficult, say the specialists. Natuial (actors such as woodpeckers, below - /em temperatures, diseases and insect parasites help keep beetle numbers down. Control measures must be applied promptly it they are to be effective. Immediate removal and destruction of dead and dv ing pines before beetles complete their 111 e cycle help prevent population buildup. Insecticides mav be used to help contml beetles that arc left in tops, stumps and tries, lien/cue hcxachloride is effective when used at a rate of one gallon diluted with 55 gallons of No. 2 fuel oil and spraved on the bark to the point of runoff. All inaniilactm crs directions should be followed. More detailed information 011 the southern pine beetle is included in I xiension l-oldei 274. "Southern Pin.'

This Is The Lawf Must the contract for the sale ol land and subsequently executed deed by registered? Registration is not necessary to make either the contract or the deed \alid as between the parties. But both documents should be registered to save th rights of the buyer from clain of creditors of the seller an purchasers for value from hin For example, if Jones agre( in writing to sell his house t Smith for a specified price an to deliver to him the deed on designated date, and th contract is not registered, thei is nothing to prevent Jone from selling the same house t Thompson. If Thompson i first in getting his dee registered, Thompson become the owner of the house fre from any claims of Smith. Thi is true even though Smith ha paid part of the purchase pric and is in possession at the tim of the conveyance ti Thompson. Furthermore, it i immaterial that Thompsoi purchased with full knowledg of all the facts. Smith has no cause of actioi against Thompson. His remed; is to sue Jones for breach o contract. Let us hope tha Jones still owns unencumbere* property from which th< judgment might be satisfied. White conveys land to Blacl by deed in 1968, but Blacl does not register his deed unti 1"70. In 1969 Green obtain and dockets a judgment agains White in the county where th land is located. May Green ii 1971 have the land sold t( satisfy his judgment agains White'' Yes. White erred in no having his deed registerec promptly upon delivery t( him. Tiffany on October 15, 1970, entered into a binding and enforceable contract to convey his house and lot to Powell for an agreed price of 550,000 on December 1, 1970. Tiffany had the legal title to the house and lot at the time of the agreement and he had agreed in writing to vacate the premises prior to December 1, 1970. On the evening of November 15, 1970, without the fault of Tiffany, the house was completely destroyed by fire. May Tiffany recover front Powell a judgment for 550,000? Yes. Powell must pay the full contract price for the house which he never had an opportunity to enjoy. This is the rule applied in the absence of an express stipulation to the contrary in the contract of the parties. There have been cases in North Carolina and elsewhere so holding. The proposed purchaser is what lawyers call the "equitable owner," and he is treated for nearly every purpose as the real owner. It was the proposed purchaser's interest in the house that was destroyed, and it is he who must bear the loss. Powell could have procured insurance that would have protected him against the loss. CAP Election Set For May An election will be held during the month of May, 1971, for the purpose of electing members to the Hoke County Community Action . Committee. The election is to assure that all sections of Hoke County are represented on the County Committee. The date of the election has been set for May 22, 1971.

The County Community Action Program in our County is established for the purpose of organizing community resources in an attempt to alleviate and eventually eradicate proverty from our mist. It is very important that all people in the County be aware of the programs of the Community Action Agency and assist where possible in recommending new programs to meet the needs ot the people, community and county.
