1964 Pepper Variety Yield Teal Selection of the right variety is vary important for success ful production of bell peppers. Total yield Is an Important factor that should be consider ed, but there are many others. In the Faison area where pepp ers are grown largely for fresh market, earliness to one of the most Important factors to con sider when selecting a variety. Adequate tallage to prevent sun scald of fruit Is necessary, yet a compact, well branched plant is desirable. The fruit must be blocky, well shaped with a thick wall, and large in size. Thirty-eight varieties were tested at the Coastal Plain Veg etable Research Station, Fais on, durli$ the 1964 season. Seed were sown on flats January 23, 1964 and later transplanted to 2 1/4 inch peat during the first two-leaf stage. Prior to sett ing in the field, 1000 pounds per acre of 5-10-10 fertilizer was applied in the row. Split applications of 50 pounds of N was applied as a top-dressing. Date of transplanting was April 22. Plants were spaced 15 in ches apart on 42-inch rows. Leading Varieties Reported Results for the varieties test ed during 1964 can be seen on the attached table. AS these results show. Key stone Resistant Giant followed by Emerald Giant and Resist ant California Wonder produced more fruit during early harvest (1-1 *wo of five harvests!. Har vesting began July 1 and term inated August 14. The highest total yield was harvested from plots planted to Emerald Giant. Yolo Wonder L, and Burpee's California Won der. Recommendations No concrete recommendat ions can be made from this test since it to only a one-year test. It to suggested that you try more than one variety to see how they perform under your growing conditions. To reduce the incidence of bacterial leaf spot, it to sugg ested that seed be obtained from a western grown source or treated with bichloride of mer cury. To prevent damping-off treat with C apt ah or Ferbam accord ing to recommendations. The name "Carnation"means " flesh-colored", for that was the hue of the original flower.

Security BY; JAMES P. TEMPLE DISTRICT MANAGER Social security old-age and survivors insurance benefits are paid to people under age 72 only if they do not have sub stantial earnings from work. This provision nas been in the law since monthly benefits first became payable in 1940. It has been modified and liberalized several times over the years, mainly to take account of high er earnings levels and to make it possible for older people to do some part-time work with out having benefits withheld. Generally speaking, the provis ion does not permit a person to get benefits while he still con tinues to work full-time at his regular Job. The retirement test is Included in the law to insure that benefits will be paid to a worker only when he has retired and to the dependents and survivors of the worker only when they do not have substant ial earnings from work. This is in line with the basic pur pose of the old-age, survivors and disability insurance pro gram ? to partially replace earnings from work that are lost wnen the worker retires, becomes disabled, or dies. There are 11/2 million peo ple 65 and- over who are not now getting benefits because they are either working and earning substantial amounts or are the dependents of men who are working. Some of these may be sue to receive some 1 ' <,1 ?? E sk*.? foe meaning of the social sec urity lew. 1 ft ? take * look at what retirement means acced ing to the social security law.

However, there is in important exception to this general rule. Regardless of your total yearly earnings, you can be paid for any month to which you dont earn over $100 -4 as an employee or perform sub stantial amount of work to your business if you are self-em- a ployed. In other words, you re retired for that month and can get your social security check regardless of what you did dur ing foe rest of foe year. These rules governing when' you may get retirement benefits do not apply effective with the month; f, you become age 72. The re tirement benefit then becomes i. ? true annuity and payable no mat ter how much you earn. Please remember that social securtiy payments are not auto- ?> matte. They don't come to you Just because you reach retire ment age and you stop working. - You must claim them. Remem- - ber, also, you don't have to re tire completely to receive some payment. If you are 65 or over, ? then you should apply for re- * tirement benefits even though you are still working to make certain you do not lose any payment for which you may be eligible.
