Mil ""f .1- ? " If Cotton In Good Shape But Still Needs Care North Carolina cotton far mers are having to pinch them selves to be sure they aren't dreaming. The condition of the cotton crop Is excellent, and a good yield Is definitely In pros pea. This Is in contrast to ex periences with the crop during the last two or three years. Glenn Toomey, extension cot ton specialist at North Carolina State University, describes the condition of the crop as "ex cellent" "Cotton is fruiting heavily at the present time,he said. "We've got a good crop at this stage. Farmers need to take every precaution to main tain this condition." The specialist noted that far mers should watch the insect situation carefully from here out. Weevils are migrating. Regular spraying is needed to prevent a build-up of boll we evils. RX. Robertson, N.C. State extension entomologist, com ments that, "A build-up of boll weevils now could be disastrous to many producers. He added that a few fields that were Infested with spider mites earlier still have Infes tations. These should be clean ed up before regular Insecticide applications are resumed. Toomey warned against over the-top applications o f her bicides. "This can be extre mely dangerous, " he said. "Spraying o n arson ate s and other materials after sq uaring and blooming will cut vlelds drastically," he added. It also could prohibit the sel ling of seed due to a possible arsenic build-up. The specialist said farmers should not be concerned about ? ? fJ. . ; ? "I what may wear to be exces sive shedding o f squares. "Generally, plants are squar ing so heavily that they are un able to hold all of them and must shed. This is natural shedding and shouldn't be regarded as anything unusual," Toomey said. He added that the application of boron directly to the plant helps the square-holding capacity of the plant. Another Toomey suggestion regards cultivation. Rains have caused roots to develop ra pidly. Cultivations should be very shallow in order to guard against root damage. GARDEN TIME By M. E. GARDNER Dept. of Horticultural Science N. C.
