If the hot weather has ruined-your
early greens, there is still time to
plant some New Zealand, enach,
which is a warm season crop. . it, is
not related to spinach and I have no
ticed that , the fcoys in my . vegetable
gardening classes wh6 have taken
some home for trial usually come back
for more. I find that most of the boys
in these classes have never eaten
Swiss Chard, New Zealand spinach,
kohlrabi, eggplant, sprouting broccoli,
or cauliflower. That means that those
crops were not grown in the gardens
back home. I would say that is an
indication that our planting plana need
a little revision before next year.
At least three people have asked me
recently if asparagus could be grown
in North' Carolina. It most certainly
can, but T must admit it is not found
in many gardens. It is a perennial
crop and perhaps for that reason does
not fit in the' cultural programs of
most gardens. 7 Once planted, will
remain productive for at least 10 years
if taken care of.' In the Coastal (Plain
and Piedmont it is, best planted in
November or December; in the moun
tain area probably March is best. One
year-- old asparagus crowns ,nay be
bought from any large seed store. The
Mary Washington variety is recom
mended. -
Fifty crowns should be enough for
the average family. Prepare a trench
about eight inches' deep and set the
crowns 18 inches apart, covering with
four inches of soil and later filling
in the trench as the plants come up.
Asparagus does not thrive in a very
acid soil.. No spears should be har
vested the first spring after planting,
or until the crop has gone through
one growing season. ' "

iFARM AGENT'S NEWS
If. the; boll weevil follows the pat'
tern of last year he will be showing
up in the cotton fields in a few days,
it is reported from the county agent's
office. ...However, weather conditions
may have changed the picture a little.
Last year the fields that paid off were
those that were dusted with toxaphene
before squares were formed. Growers
may not want to make pre-square tox
aphene applications for weevils ' this
year as last year, but conditions must
be watched carefully in. each locality.
Preparations should be made to apply
materials before, squaring if neces
sary. To insure a sufficient number
of squares, however, dusting should
begin at 'time of squaring and be con
tinued for at least twenty-one days
which is the time required for the
weevil to complete its life cycle. Ap
plications should be made at intervals
not longer than seven days since under
normal conditions it is effective .for
only about one week. If conditions
warranty dustings should be continued
longer "than twenty-one days. The
amount of dust will vary with con
ditions, but s pretty good guide is to
use eight to ten pounds, at the time
of squaring and increase it by two
pounds each week thereafter. -'
