RIGID SANITATION TO CHECK DISEASE Farmers Should Not Carry Prepared Tobacco Into Seed Beds GERMS EASILY SPREAD Rigid sanitation will aid farm ers in checking the spread of to bacco mosaic, a disease that costs North Carolina farmers millions of dollars every year. The organisms that cause mo saic are often found in tobacco that has been prepared for smok ing or chewing, and they can be transferred easily to young plants in the field or seed bed. "Don't carry any „ tobacco in your pockets when you go into a field or seed bed," said Dr. Luther Shaw, extension plant patholo gist at state College. "If you are a tobacco user, brush out your pockets and wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water." Dr. Shaw also urged growers m V, oH .■ WUjjJr McDaniel's Takes" Great Pleasure in Extending CONGRATULATIONS AND BEST WISHES To The Graduates of 1937 I Smart Gifts Fo for for H IM HER SHIRTS IF BAGS E & W and Ritz with non-wilt Patent and kid.

For the first four to six weeks .after transplanting, the field should be gone over before each cultiva tion and all diseased plants re moved and destroyed, he says. Cultivators, harness, men's shoes, and other equipment may spread mosaic over the field. Al ways cultivate or top healthy plants before working with those that have mosaic symptoms. Dr. Shaw pointed put that black shank can also be spread by works tock, equipment, or men moving from one field to anoth er, especially when the soli Is wet. Black shank can also be spread by rain water washing from a diseased field on to another just below. On farms where black shank has been found, don't use tobacco trash in fertilizer, and don't use manure from the stalls of ani mals that have ranged on infest ed ground.

THE ELKIN TRIBUNE, ELKIN, NORTH CAROLINA MIDGETS CONTINUE WINNING STREAK Elkin Midgets continued their victories this week by defeating the West Elkin nine Friday by a score of 16-12. Dorsett led the hitting for West Elkin. Couch. Powers, Harris and Shumate led the attack for the Midgets with two hits each. Except for a few wild pitches, Shores, on the mound for the Midgets, held the opponents under control. The Midgets were again victor ious over the Jonesville nine Tuesday at the local playground, when in the seventh inning their opponents quit the game, with a tied score of 4-4. This entitled the Midgets to a 4-0 score. Harris pitched a neat game for the Midgets. Swaim and Holcomb pitched for the Jonesville nine. She: "111 stand on my head or bust."

THOUSANDS SEE KING CROWNED London Celebrates as Pageant of King's Coronation Is Opened MANY VISITORS PRESENT London, Wednesday, May 12. A blare of bugles, rising above the din of singing thousands in the streets, officially opened the costly pageant of King Qeorge Vl's coronation at la. m. today and sent 30,000 troops to their posts along the six-mile "path of glory." All London and 6,000,000 people from far corners of the world were wild with joy, swept up in a flashing kaleidioscope of shout ing, singing, flirting, and flag waving that took on more mad ness as dawn approached. The horde of humans, come to cheer the 41-year-old king and his commoner queer on their cor onation day, merged in London's wildest scenes since the armistice. The blond-haired Edward, who might have been hailed today as he rode in the coach of gold, ap peared forgotten by almost all. When the bugles blared at 1 a. m. and the 30,000 sleepy-eyed troops flanked both sides of the six-mile route winding through the heart of ancient London standing arm's length apart all traffic was cleared from the coro nation area, leaving streets free for the invasion of spectators. Some fought for points of van tage throughout the night; oth ers paid as high as $3,000 for apartments and windows over looking the line of march. In addition to the 30,000 troops 20,000 of Scotland Yard's finest metropolitan police and 2,500 military "minute men" waited in such strategic spots as Hyde Park, St. James' Palace courtyard, and Horse Guards Parade to be rush ed to any scene of emergency.

"No,' 'replied dad, "I can't say I have, although I once heard a collision between a truck-load of empty milk cans and a freight car filled with live ducks." Mary: "John, dear, I'm to be in amateur theatricals. What will people say when they see me in tights?" John Jones: "They'll say I married you for your money." F. A.
