"Miss Sutton is an exceptionally good agent," Miss Current declared "and w are fortunate in being able to secure her services again." Says Rotenone Dust Kills Flea Beetles Flea beetles attacking tobacco plant beds in eastern North Carolina can be controlled effectively with ap plications of cube or derris dust con taining one per cent rotenone. ' The dust will eradicate beetles, but is not harmful to the tender young plants, said Dr. B. B. Fulton, ento mologist at State Collge. With a dusting machine, he said,' the dust should be blown through the canvas covers over the beds at the rate of 1-2 pound to each 100 square yards of bed. Although dust containing one per cent rotenone is recommended for tobacco beds, Dr. Fulton pointed out that the weaker dust used to con trol bean beetles can also be used on flea beetles. Bean beetle dust contains 3-4 of one per cent rotenone, and when ap plied to tobacco beds 2-3 of a pound should 'be dusted on each 100 square yards of bed. Both the cube and the derris plants contain rotenone. When ground to dust, the material is diluted with powered clay to lower the percent age of rotenone so the dust will not be too strong. After the tobacco plants are set out in the field, they should be dust ed the following day, and every fourth day thereafter during favor able weather until the beetles are eradicated. If the plants are rained upon the same day they are dusted, the application should be repeated. When rotenone dust cannot be ob tained, tobacco beds may be treated with a dust consisting of one pound of Paris green to five pounds of lead arsenate, but this dust is dangerous to the plants and should be applied carefully and uniformly when the plants are dry. produce? ciap but which the farmer hope tn huiM up andi return to culti vation, lespedeza is. the- ideal crop. Where thfe legume em be grown con tinuously for five or six years, Stott advised that lespedeza sericea, a perennial, be mixed with the annual variety. Upon the advice of the State Col lege Extension Service and the Soil Conservation service many farmers are planning to retire their severely eroded land to pasture. Since much of this land is too poor to produce grasses and clovers necessary for a good sod, Stott recommended the planting of lespedeza, which will build up the fertility of the soil to a point where it will support a pasture sod and at the same time provide a limit ed amount of grazing. Seeding lespedeza is also one of the first important steps in the prepara tion of land for strip-cropping, alter nate strips being seeded to lespedeza between strips of row crops. Don't Stick Fork In Roast When a roast is in the oven, don't stick your fork again, and again, into the meat, and so let out the juices and flavor. Don't flour the roast at all. Sprinkle with salt only. , r J ti s eeeeeeeseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesee Bo Your Spring Gleaning Uith Our Supplies . . . Lespedeza Is Base Of Good Cropping System Lespedeza can be made to serve as the hub for a good cropping sys tem for conserving soil and water on the farm, according to H. M. Stott, agronomist of the Soil Conser vation Service in the High Point de monstration area. Although seed bed preparation is not necessary where lespedeza is seeded in small grain, Stott said, best results will be secured if the seed is run over lightly with a drag harrow. If seeding is done on land not in small grain, the seed bed should be disked well before the les pedeza is sown.
