■——■— »» ■ 1 " '"IJil"!."" — 1 * *•' "~ ’•••■» The time is at hand when we may expect' light frost almost any night after the weather cools off. The first frosts usually occur in the low spots because the cold air, being heavier than warm air, will settle there. Very often after the first frost nips our fail flowers and tender vegetables there is a period of two or three weeks be fore another frost occurs. There fore) it is desirable to do what we can to prevent damage by these early light frosts and so prolong our season. It is well to keep the following facts in mind: light frosts will not occur on cloudy nights; frosts will nos occur if a breeze is stir ring thq' air; if your garden is so’ '■ located that the cold air can move off to lower areas, it will probably escape damage from light frosts; if your garden is low and is sur rounded by trees and shrubs so that the cold air cannot move oat, you will probably have severe da mage from the first frosts. How can we prevent frost dam age, That is not • easy* for the aver age gardener. The 1 commercial fruit and flower grower may use sprinkler irrigation, oil heaters or large fans to do the job, but these are impracticable for the home garden. In California I saw large propeller fans used to stir up the air to prevent frost damage. In Minnesota I saw dahlias grown under a cheesecloth cover in order to protect from early frost and prolong the blooming season. The se methods are effective but ex ' pensive. On a frosty morning we often see choice chrysanthemums, dah lias and tomatoes covered with' sheets of paper. Usually these cov ers ars simply thrown over the plants. This is poor* protection be cause the cover is in contact with the plant or flower. Wherever the _ *lfot V. Jutm* • .IBlilßk __ Hj^^B9KCOHDE|F PEPSI COLA BOTTLING COMPANY, Inc. SPRUCE PINE, N. C. •*"““"" IA ' cloth or paper touches the plant of flower, frost damage will oc cur right through the cover. To be effective the cover must be held off of the plant by a frame work or by stakes. Turning the sprinkler on early in the morning when a light frost occurs will sometimes prevent or lessen the damage, ‘but not always. 1 have also found that since the great increase in automobile, traf fic on the street along one side of my garden, my dahlias are seldom damaged by the first light frosts as they used to be a few years ago. It pays to listen to radio weath er reports, especially for early frost predictions. MRS. BANKS ATTENDED HOME OFFICE SCHOOL s Mrs. Grace Banks, agent in the local office of the Imperial Life Insurance Company who resides at Burnsville returned fast week frorii Asheville, North Carolina where she attended a special Home *- - —r— , , Office school.

Through profes sional journals and meetings he is up to date on the latest research and developments in pharmacy and medicine. > He is the physician's colleague and trusted aide,ln direct contact with drug manufacturers, he helps keep the busy physician informed on the hundreds of new prescription drugs developed each year. He is the physician's “warehouse.” He must stock every drug that may be prescribed by the doctors he serves ... medicines for hay fever, arthritis, the common cold . . . thousands of them. Many resemble one another, but there are no substitutes. The pharmacist fills every prescription exactly as ordered.' ) He is a good neighbor. He knows and likes his customers. He values their friendship and confidence in his professional skill —that skill which stands always dedicated to the well being of his neighbors. ~ > He is a public servant. President Eisenhower, in pro claiming National Pharmacy Week, has called attention to “the splendid services rendered by the pharmacists of America to the lrealth of our people.” • J Because the pmtrmarist is all these things, he deserves a tribute of thanks for his devoted and indispensable service throughout the year.
