THE PERQUIMANS WEEKLY. HERTFORD. NORTH CAROLINA. AUGUST 2. 1963
If you .have not put out your
.zinon on your peanuts by
trt you are pushing your I, ,.dc
little bit long, as. this should
ve been put out before f the
at of August," states R,M.
ompson, County "v Eyn?"1n
irman. "The recommenced
e this year is the same as it
I last' year, 20 pounds to the
' r. We know that there Sre
;.ny cass where maybe diazin
l wi" " - be, of any great
nefit.5 t as i mah.of. the
rmers vl-it, it is pretty good
surance in case the Southern
oot worm: builds up 6s it has
l some years past.;
Peanuts ', and cotton . both
tould be sprayed to prevent in
ct damage to these1 crops. In
te case of "peanuts, we are iee
nmending !copper sulphur with,
DT, dusted or sprayed ever 2
veeks at the rate or. 15 to i
pounds per acre We know from
the results from the past that
dusting during the early part of
September has helped to keep
the .peanuts on ; the ' vine and
most- everybody- " knows what
damage insects can do to pea
nuts., In - the ' case of cotton,
from the last of July, it should
be sprayed, at 5 day intervals
until . the squares stop ' forming.
We are suggesting that toxa
phene and DDT be used in Au
gust . to help to control . Boll
Weevils and Boll Worms .also.
"Regardless of how good pros
pects are in cotton or peanuts,
you will not be satisfied with
your yield unless the insects are
controlled and the only way to
do this is. through . proper dust
ing or spraying, using the right
material, with a systematic
schedule for application," further
states Mr. Thompson.

Advice On Freezing Foods
start counting time. Keep the
heat high under the kettle.
When recommended time for
that vegetable is up, lift the
wire basket of vegetables out of
boiling water. Plunge it into
cold (icy is best), water. To
know when to take the vege
tables from cold water, break
a piece open and touch the in
side to' ' the' tip - of 'your tongue.
You can tell' if it's chilled.1 Re
move from cold water and package.-

Alvitt Copeland constructed
some j'fieldv' ditches on his? farm

is constructing a ditch on his
farm on the Harvey Point Road.
Some of the Hairy Indigo

W. F. Madre's coastal bermuda
grass is furnishing a lot of graz
ing now.

Robert Sutton, Claude Wins
low and W. F. Elliott revised
their conservation plans recent
ly. J. P. Perry, Floyd Mathews
and Eure Bros, prepared basic
conservation plans for their
farms.
Clarence C. Chappell is fer
tilizing and seeding fescue grass
on the side slopes of his newly
cut ditches7 If you can get a
vegetative growth on the side
slopes of ditches soon after they
are cut it will prevent so much
dirt from silting into the ditch
and the ditch will perform sat
isfactorily for a much longer
time before having to be cleaned
out. Love grass is doing a good
job of maintaining the side
slopes on a ditch in some sandy
