Davis Attor?f?.T4fir>;'4*> KINGS MOUNTAIN, M. C. QUESTION : What's wrong with my oak tree? ANSWER: It may be infected by a fungus known as oak leaf blister, which seems to be gener ally more severe this year, prob ably as a result of the cool, wet spring. As its name implies, oak leaf blister looks very much like a raised blister on the upper sur face of an infected leaf. The in fected area is usually a lighter shade of green than the healthy parts. Unfortunately, it is toq late in the season to do much about a tree infected with the disease. All known sprays must be appli ed during the tree's dormant pe riod. A lime sulphur of bordeaux spray applied in the fall after the lehves have fallen or in early spring before the new leaves bud out, will- kill the fungus spores and often gives good control. QUESTION: Why is Ladlno clover my best pasture bef? ANSWER: Mixtures of Ladino clover and orchard grass, or La dino clover and tall fescue are widely adapted and the most pro ductive permanent pasture com binations yet grown in North Carolina and are recommended in the piedmont and mountains for most soils that are adequately fertilized ahd limed. These mix lure s are also recommended in the coastal plains for fertile, moist soils, and for soils, and for poorly drained soils that are pro perly fertilized and limed, but not for the dryer sandy soils. A mix ture of Bermuda root stock and Kobe lespedeza is your best bet in dry sandy soil. QUESTION: How can I get rid of round -worms in my chic kens? ANSWER: Products for re moval of the large round worms in chickens are sold in powder and capsule from. Thep owdered form is generally placed in the mash; the capsule is used in in dividual treatment and is prob ably more efficient. Commercial products containing nicotine sul phate are recommended. Some of you sweet, corn grow ers may be looking forward to i the satisfaction and joy that will be yours when you sink your teeth in the first tender ears. Per haps the corn ear worms are al so looking forward to that time ? and they usually get there first. However, they can be effective ly controlled with very little trou ble. For small gardens it is pro bably sufficient and easiest to dus^ the silks of the corn with 5 per cent DDT dust. The dust should be applied directly to the silks when about three-fourths of the silks are showing and again when a few of them begin to turn brown. The moth lays the eggs on the silks and when they hatch out the small corn ear worm feeds there before he eats into the ear Itself. For large plantings a power sprayer should be used and a DDT-mineral oil emulsion is rec ommended by our entomologists. This spray has been found to be effective for the control of the ear worm. There is> a special self NOTICE OF SALE Under and by virtue of the po wer of sale contained in an order made by E. A.

This has been used success fully by commercial growers in Florida and Virginia. And while we are on the sub ject of Insect control let's not for get the ever-present Mexican bean beetle. Don't let the beetles seriously damage the bean plants before you do something about it. As soon as you see ?ofie Cfi thr beetles ? they are large brown or yellow lady bird beetles with sixteen spots on their wing cov -? ers ? or as soon as you notice that some of the bean leaves have been eaten so that they resemble a piece of lace, it is time to get busy. The best control in the home garden is a 1 per cent ro tenone dust. Sinee the beetle feeds on the undersides, of the bean leaves the dust must be ap plied. to the undersides of the leaves to be effective. Rotenone is not toxic to humans and there fore may be used without danger even after the bean pods have formed. OOPS! DID YOU DROf IT? YOUR WATCH Has it met with an acci dent?
