Infantile paralysis, that dread disease, much more prevalent among children .than among older people that, horrible disease which has left in. its wake so m&ny erstwhile splen did specimens of physical manhood and womanhood crippled for life, has spread to the Albemarle, with Eden ton reporting the first case east of the Chowan River, the victim being a small colored child. It is high time that parents real izethat tihe time for the effective ness of preventative measures is before and not after the disease strikes in their midst. There is certainly nothing to be gained by parents becoming Systeri cal after they have by their own negligence allowed their children to be exposed to some one from whom the disease may be contracted. Infantile paralysis .is in the neigh borhood. It is a fact that paved roads and automobiles have broad ened our neighborhood to include not only Chowan County but other com--.. munities once remote from us. We can reach these neighbors in Edenton mw(h quicker than we once could - those; who lived only five miles away. Neighborhood visiting of children should not be allowed just now. The careless or indifferent parents who take their children on visits into! ( communities where they know tihe disease exists not only menaces the safety of their own children but in creases the hazard of others in the community. To the reasonably prudent man or woman the actions of such parents are Qiard to understand. Such negli gence on the part of parents makes more difficult the safeguarding care which the prudent parents would ex ercise. Incidentally, it is this careless type of parent who becomes excited after they realize the possible result of their actions. There is no reason for hysteria. But iiere is grave reason for pru dence. Now is the time for precau tion. In the words of Dr. G. E. NeVjy Perquimans County Health Officer, spoken two weeks before a case de veloped in the Albemarle, "Parents, keep your children at home!" vKtim4iMC Was Coimc. Ajlonc Fine uwrrii.

In the experiments it was found that where the fertilizer was applied in bands on both sides of the seed ten times as much cotton survived un favorable soil and weather conditions was the case where the fertilizer was placed directly under the seed. This was a greater difference than had been found in previous years, said Dr. H. B. Mann, agronomist in soil fertility at the N. C. Agricultu ral Experiment Station, but it bears out the fact that the side placement of"Jertilizer gives the best result. On an average during the past four years, he added, the seed germina tion was twice as great with the side band method of application This method also gave an average yield of 1,514 pounds of seed cotton the acre, as compared with 1,080 pounds when the fertilizer was placed under the rows. The ideal placement, Dr. Mann said, appears to be in narrow bands about two inches below the level of the seed and two and a half inches to each side of the seed row. Similar results have been noted in this and other States with truck crops. Many of the larger insh po tato growers are equipped to apply the fertilizer to the side of the seed when planting. Cotton planters of this type are also available at reasonable prices, Dr. Mann said, and he recommended them especially to farmers who use large quantities of fertilizer or who have found it difficult to get a good stand of cotton. One of the best small grain har vests in years, report Rowan farmers who increased their production of wheat and oats this season.

They will supplement the amount allowed by the State which has been slightly increased for the coming school year, and em ploy adult drivers for lbs school busses. That one county in North Carolina has awakened to the urgency of the need of better safeguarding the lives of the school children who ride tc and from school in busses, is worthy of note. The State (has never provided ade quate pay for school bus drivers. Only a school boy or girl could af ford to work for the amount allowed. This is wrong. It may be that the consolidated school and the school bus are good things but unless pro1 vision can be made for the safety of the diildren, the system is wrong. The slight increase made in the : pay of bus drivers this year by the State may be an incentive to other counties to assume responsibility for the school children and supplement . the amount in order to employ adult - bus drivers. .The people of North Carolina are grossly negligent of tihe children who ride in busses and unfair to the ('youngsters they employ as bus driv ers." Few school boys of sixteen or eighteen years should be allowed to shoulder the tremendous responsibil ity of driving a school bus containing 40 Or 50 children to and from school every day.

The long leaf seed did not germinate: so well, ;. to control the pests? Answer: Grease the pigs with waste oil from the automobile.. This will kill lice and other external para sites affecting the animals. However do not expose the pigs to direct sun light immediately after greasing them. Question: Is it a good practice to plant cowpeas on tobacco land when the crop is "laid by"? Answer: It certainly is. The cow peas will improve the land if plowed under or may be used for a supply of legume hay. The tobacco will not be injured as the bottom leaves will be primod by the time the peas begin full growth. Usually, how ever, it is best to use the peas for soil improvement and the vines will not make much growth unless the tobacco ripens and is harvested early. Progressive tobacco growers are not afraid to improve their land now adays because they have found that they can use more plants to the row or balance the fertilizer to take care of the increased fertility supplied by legumes. Question: 'My bean vines are being destroyed by beetles. , How can I combat tiiem? Answer: Dust with magnesium arsenate. Mexican bean beetles have .appeared in large numbers this sea son and will be very destructive to late snap beans unless control mea sures are used.. The insects may be controlled with a magnesium arsen ate dust or spray or by using the new. Rotenone dust. This latter; is being recommended quite generally now because it is non-poisonous to humans but it is1 more expensive than the magnesium arsenate. , If you have only a few rows of beans in the garden, very good results may be se cured by picking the adult beetles each day, - u ; NOTICE OF ADMINISTRATION Having qualified as Administrator of the estate of A.
