Schools Have Chance
To Earn Needed Data
Under the terms of a plan just an
nounced - by State Superintendent
Clyde Erwin, the high schools in this
county will have the opportunity
this spring to earn a supply of valu
able governmental materials prepared
by the institute of Government and
accumulate funds for their libraries
at the same time.
The result may be that North Car
olina schools will be teaching govern
ment in action instead pf the conven
tional government in books. For the
Institute of Government staff .works
on the theory that about 75 per cent
of governmental knowledge is to be
found in the heads of the officials and
uie mevnoaa ana pracuces oi uieir pi.
flees," and not in the.books. J- -v t
Educators everywhere will watch
the experiment,, with wide interest
"We have; the opportunity to lead
the State and nation in a program of
governmental instruction and prepar
ation for citizenship." was the view
expressed by Superintendent. Erwin
in announcing, the plan to the princi
pals and recommending its adoption
in the high schools of Jthe State..

Keep Breeders C:n
To Save Baby Giicks
.Protecting baby chicks from cocci
diosis in the spring will go a long
way toward reducing their death rate,
says Roy S. Dearstyne, head of the
State College poultry department
The chicks are Infected by picking
up the tiny eggs of the carasite
which causes the disease, Dearstyne
says. The eggs are frequently found
on the ground ' and in , the brooder
'cure" when older birds' of :the flock
have been infected. . ,'t , ,
To control the diseasej he . recom
mends that all infected , chicks be
killed end burned or buried '.deeply.
Thoroughly clean' " out . the litter or
sand from the brooder house at least
every , ottet ;
clean dry sand about one-third of an
inch deen. Continue this - frequent
cleaning until the diserse is checked.
IimIm nri rtranr CMtain
witii boirmgrT inoe rdinary
disinfectants are ' of n't practical
value on controlling.- -"iljaras
Dearstyne points out.
If the weather if no' ' "-
fine the chicks to the hrti- liEC
for at least seven d?v r,i '-hem
from picking up cocc!di;i: ggs from
the ground outsie'e th nouse where
diseased chicks may have ringedV '
Meanwhile, plow or., spade the in
fected runways, if possible,, so as to
bring uninfected earth to the!surface.
Otherwise, the chicks should be pro
vided with an uninfected range by
some other method.
Avoid tracking germs into the
brooder house or placing in tne
house any material which may be in
fected. Keep up the cmcks- vnauiy
bv feeding a balanced ration and
caring for them properly.
Cure And Prevention
Rose Garden Trouble
Bush roses may be pruned once a
. . 1 wv l l Tl-
year. Hybrid reas, ana nyona rcr
petuals especially, should be pruned
at least once a year. If you are grow
ing them for garden decoration, re
move half of the previous year'E
growth. For larger and finer blooms
remove two-thirds of last year's
growth. The older growth will bf
hard and woody, while last year's
wood will be tender and more color
ful. To prune rambler roses, cut at
the base the canes that have flowered,
leaving the new wood for future
bloom. However, unless, they, are tak
ing up too much space, climbers need
little if any pruning. . v
The insects that - trouble roses are
not difficult to control if they are sot
allowed to get. a start; , Nicotine
sprays are the remedy for. lucking in
sects, such as anhis. Arsenate' snrava
will take care of the chewing Insects,
such as worms and beetles. Your
seedsman can advise you what spray
to use for your individual problem.
Black Spot and mildew can be corn
batted by dusting with "Massey
Dust," a name given to a mixture of
nine parts of fine sulpher and one
part arsenate of lead. This should
be applied about every ten days from
early June until frost You need not
mix this yourself,- since your seeds
man can supply tnis formula or its
equivalent. v .
Roses like lots of water, but they
do not like wet feet they will not
tolerate standing in I iter. Flood
the rose beds so that the soil is wet
to a depth of at least six inches dur
ing the dry spells, and spray the
foliage in the morning when the sun
is shining not m the late afternoon.
Afternoon sprays encourage Black
Spot and mildew , '
Hybrid Tea roses may be protected
in winter by : hilling up the soil
around the plants.' . Climbers may be
taken down and covered with a. soil or
Doara.irames. in a mild climate all
that is needed is ' a windbreak.' plus
some salt hay or other material that
does not pack too solid. J. W. John
ston, in McCall's Magazine for April.
