Elwood Ave. Rueford Jack Frazier 875-2464 PROBLEM PESTS During the past week, three specific pest problems have been brought to my attention by Hoke County citizens. First, you've all noticed by now the white silk tents in the crotches of trees around the county. This pest, the eastern tent caterpillar, can be identified as a dark hairy caterpillar with a white stripe down the back, bordered with reddish brown. Along each side is a row of oval blue spots and brown and yellow lines. The eastern tent caterpillar is not be be confused with the gypsy moth which has, starting from the head, five pairs of blue spots followed by six pairs of red spots. Tent caterpillars produce only one generation per year, and most of the year is spent in the egg stage. To control tent caterpillars try disrupting their tent with a long pole. Sometimes they aren't able to recognize their tents once they've been disrupted. Burning out the tents is not recommended because fire will injure the tree and is also very hazardous. There are several insecticides labeled for tent cater pillars. Sevin, Diazinon, or Mala thion, are all available at hardware or garden stores. Be sure to follow the directions for safe and effective use found on the pesticide label. Another problem which literally has been popping up in some of your yards is the mole. In North Carolina it is illegal to kill moles with a poison. But there are two other methods. You can trap moles or you can use insecticides to kill the insects that moles eat. The best mole trap is the spear type which is available at hardware or garden stores. You should place traps on the most frequently used tunnels or runways. To find these, cave in a short section of all visible tunnels, then check each day to see which runways the mole has re opened. Repeat this caving in and checking for two or three days Deaths And Funerals Mra. Ruby Lewis Mrs. Ruby Henninger Lewis, 81, of 558 Greenway Dr., Statesville, died Thursday. She had been critically ill the past month and in declining health several years. Surviving are her husband, Augustus M. Lewis of the home; and her sisters, Mrs. Frances H. McLean of Raeford, and Mrs. Flake L. Steele, Sr., of Winston Salem. A graveside service was con ducted Saturday morning in Oak wood Cemetery of Statesville by the Rev. Jim Gilland.

VOTE FOR 28 YEARS EXPERIENCE IN HOKE COUNTY LA W ENFORCEMENT RE-ELECT Sheriff David M. Barrington ON JUNE 29th, 1962 <Subj#ct To Chang* Again!) PLEASE REGISTER BEFORE MAY 17, 1962 ?y ??pnrfra M. ? ?nl?n?n Farm Focus by Richard Mellon Extension Livestock Agent Banks Wannamaker Extension Field Crops Agent before deciding which tunnels to trap. One or two traps should be sufficient for an average-sized lawn. Controlling the insects that the moles eat requires two to three months for best results. You can contact the Extension office for recommendations on controlling soil Insects. And, finally, have you had problems with ants yet this year? Lawn ants or garden ants, unless they are of the Fine ant species, really pose no problem except that of being a nuisance. Ants are in the garden because of plant lice or aphids. Aphids feed on vegetables by sucking the plant juices, and in their feeding process they secrete a surgary solution which attracts ants. Some effective pesticides are granules containing Dursban or sprays or granules of Diazinon. Always read the labels and follow the directions carefully. For more specific information on fire ant control contact your County Extension Office at 875-3461. UPCOMING EVENTS Hoke County citizens who would like to learn more about sheep production will get an opportunity to do so on Saturday, May 22. The Agricultural Research Ser vice will sponsor a sheep produc tion field day on one of its farms near North Carolina State Univer sity. Richard Melton, Hoke County livestock agent, said the field day is the first even^ of its type in 25 years. It has been planned because of the resurgence of interest in sheep production in North Carolina. Mel ton also said that several inquiries about sheep production have been made by Hoke County residents. The field day will cover all aspects of the husbandry and management of sheep. It will be a hands-on type of event where people can get involved in such things as trimming feet, handling wool and treating for internal parasites. Hoke County citizens who would like to attend the field day should get in touch with Richard Melton at the Hoke County Extension office (875-3461). He can provide more information on the event, including a map of how to get there. Archie King Retires Archie King recently retired from the Raeford Plant of Bur lington Industries.
