GARDEN TIME
BY: M. E. GARDNER
I attended a meeting of
the New River Grape Grow
er’s Association on Wednes
day, September 8 The meet
ing was held in the Rhodes
town community, between
Richlands and Jacksonville,
and was well attended.
This is the youngest orga
nization in the field of Hor
ticulture (an area of* f*ee
enterprise) but it is already
making great strides in for
mulating a sound program
which should improve the
economy of eastern Carolina
bv developing, to its fullest
potential, a crop that is na
tive to the the Musca
dine grape. f
The amazing thing about
this young and b ash outfit
is the fact that they came
to the N. C. General Assem
bly, late in the session, with
a request for research funds
to help solve some of the
problems involved i n thp
breeding, production, pro
cessing and marketing of
Muscadines.
The fact that they got a
?izable appropriation is a
tribute to the caliber of lead
ership in the o ganizaiton,
aoiy assisted by political lea
ders in the area, Chambers
of Commerce and Individual
citizens.
Establishing a new indus
try is one-tiring while keep
ing it healthy is another It
is assumed that the leader
ship, already demonstrated,
would not permit the exr
pansion of the industry be
yond the capacity of con
suming channels to utilize
the fresh or processed pro
ducts at a profit.

THE YANCEY RECORD
Pfitzer juniper, euonymus
and holly plants, all heavily
Infested with bagworms
The bagwo m is a cater
pillar that lives in a silken
cocoonlike bag. The worm
gradually increases the size
of the bag, as it grows, and
by late summer it is about
two inches long. The female
lays a mass of eggs and this
is the stage in which the in
sect parses the winter. The
eggs usually hatch in May
or early June.
There are two methods of
control. The first, and eas
iest if you do not have many, .
is to pick the bags from the
plants and destroy them.
The second, is to sp~ay
with lead arsenate when the
eggs hatch and the cater
pillars emerge from the bags
and begin feeding on the
leaves. This is a chewing in
sect so a stomach poison is
used. Sevin and malathion
are also effective.
