SEWING CORNER The Cowwi Museum in kenansville has on display a variety of antique sewing implements. On the left is a portable sewing caddy used to store thread and other sewing notions. The caddy is thought to be almost 130 years old. In the center is an old measuring stick used for hemming skirts, h is equipped with a mouthpiece, and by blowing into it, the seamstress could produce a fine line of chalk around the skirt. On the right is a Wheeler Wilson sewing machine. The machine, which is operated by a foot pedal, dates back to 1857 and is valued at over $200. Out Of Tho Attic.?? Visiting Th? Sharon Overton SILVER THREADS AND GOLDEN NEEDLES hew seamstresses in the ldth century could afford to do their needlework with precious minerals, but they did utilize the earth's natural bounty to make their fami lies' clothes. A typical house wife in the early 1800's spun her own thread from cotton or lamb's wool, colored it with natural dyes from roots or bark and wove it into the fabric used for her clothing. The Cowan Museum in Kenansville has on display many of the implements used in early sewing. The portable sewing caddy dates back to the years before the inven tion of the sewing machine. It is made of wood and can be easily folded and set up near the sewing area. Inside are small shelves used for stacking homemade thread and other sewing utensils. The caddy was manufac tured in Wisconsin, but the Cowan's discovered it while visiting Williamsburg, Va. One of the earnest models, the Cowan's Wheeler Wilson 1857 sewing machine is even older than the familiar Singer brands. The patent on the machine shows a date of 1855, however, which is not quite as old as the first sewing machine made by Howe. The curators are hoping to come upon a Howe sometime during their travels. The Cowans bought the Wheeler Wilson for $55 at an auction of one of Jackson ville's oldest homes. Proving the old adage "one man's junk is another man's trea sure," George Cowan says the sewing machine is now valued at over $200. Be Alert For Muscadine Grape Diseases This month and continuing until fruit maturity are criti cal times for fungus diseases on muscadine grapes, ac cording to Richard C. For bess of the Duplin County Agricultural Extension Ser vice. Forbess stated that among the most destructive muscadine diseases in this ' region are: bitter rot. pow dery mildew, angular leaf spot, black rot and ripe rot. Bitter Rot begins as brown colored lesions on the fruit which enlarge in size and eventually rot the fruit. Pow dery mildew is characterized by a "white" mildew cover ing the young grapes which results in cracking, size re duction and fruit drop. Angular leaf spot can be seen as yellow, angular shaped lesions on the leaves which eventually results in prema ture leaf drop leaving smaller fruit with a lowered sugar content. Black Rot is identi fied by brown, circular spots on the leaves and scabby black lesions on the fruit. Ripe rot is a large problem because the disease appears very late (as the fruit is nearing maturity) and spreads very rapidly. Watch for sunken brown or flat, rotted areas on the surface of the fruit clusters beginning in August. Forbess went on to say that the majority of the commercial muscadine grape growers in North Carolina are aware of these diseases and incorporate a seasonal spray program for crop pro tection. However, backyard muscadine growers and be ginners are sometimes con fused regarding the identi fication and control mease for these diseases. Fo 1 ately, these disease n usually be kept in c' by applying Benlate (5u wet table powers) at two pounds per acre or Maneb (80% wettable powder) at four pounds per acre at two-week intervals until late August. Whichever material you de ride to use should provide sufficient disease control; however, Benlate is the more effective for powdery mildew and Maneb is slightly more effective for ripe rot.
