GJGLF;G Except In the mountain area* thin is not the proper time to plant lawn grasses. The young seed lings do not get well started be fore hot weather Is upon them and burns them out. Bermuda and Centiplde grasses are exceptions to the rule, and are hest planted in April or May. In the Coastal Plain and lower Piedmont, Ber muda grass and Centiplde grass '■ will best stand the hot summers and make a satisfactory lawn. New strains such as“Tiffihe Bermuda” are big improvements over common Bermuda. There is a lot of interest now in Meyer and Emerald Zoysia grass. These are excellent lawn grasses but are expensive and slow to start. Other grasses such as bluegrass, fescues and ryegrass should be planted in the fall.

' « i—“” I Tobacco a Growers Get best protection agoinst WILDFIRE and BLUE MOLD with SWhen wildfire threatens yonr seed beds, you can get better results with Agri-Strep than with standard copper or Bordeaux sprays. Agri- Strep is also highly ef | mold when accompany ing wildfire. Here are 4 tested reasons why it j will pay you to use Agri-Strep: j 1. Agri-Strep sprays are quickly absorbed by tobacco plants . . . work internally to kill germs without damaging the plants. 2. Agri-Strep contains only streptomycin—the one antibiotic that kills both wildfire bac teria and blue mold fungi. J 3 ' 3. Agri-Strep, used as directed, is non-toxic and does not corrode or clog sprayers. 4. Agri-Strep is recommended by many State Agricultural Experiment Stations. Decide now to boost your profi ts with economi cal Agri-Strep. Extensive commercial tests have proved that Agri-Strep users get a full, healthy stand. Also on limited acreages, they can hring a bigger crop of better leaf into the • barn. Come in today and get your supply. Available in bottles of 4oufices and in 25- pound drums. sM«rc* & Co., loc.

The hot weather months are the critical period in the main tenance of a lawn. It should be fertilized every five or six weeks throughout the growing season. If you haven't done so, put on right now an application of a good garden fertilizer suchl as e—B—6 or B—B—B at the rate of 20 lbs. per 1,000 square feet. Water this in or apply it just before a rain. For the remain der of the season use about five pounds of nitrate of soda per 1,000 ■PS«U • •‘•'•j 1 :- I *' W 1 - I I . i. ii.. ■ l. ■ HaPi WKSti \ * Dr BE-jOf S 'ußUhiw IK Kb. ™ KH| ■ !

For two months they worried 'during the day and slept fitfully at night. Then they decided that regardless of the doctor's diag , nosis and decision, no one could possibly know (when their Maker would take anyone into His fold. |Then they came to another decision. That it isn’t 'how long you live but how you live. Now they began living each day as if they never expected to live an other. They didn't put off until tomorrow saying the things each knew the other one wanted' to hear, and'doing the little things to make each other hap- pier. ■Those practices, she says, resulted in their having nine of thej happiest years ever given to anyone to experience. And she looksj back at those nine years as being filled with more happiness than most married couples have in fifty years. ' __ - - \ .- ••• THURSDAY, MARCH 29, 1956 CARNEGIE
