SUBSCRIBE TO TRE HERALD Are you getting tired of run ning the cultivator and wielding the hoe in your garden in a los ing battle with weeds and grass? Why not use a mulch? It is surprising how few gar dteners make use of mulches as an aid in the conservation of soil moisture and the control of weeds. A mulch may be any ma terial such as hay, straw, strawy manure, leaves, leafmold, peat, sawdust, pinestraw or heavy pa pter which can be put down on the ground around plants for the purpose of conserving moisture during the hot, dry summer wea ther. At the same time it will keep down most of the Weeds. Cardboard boxes, flattened out, have been used with excellent results. Ground corn cobs arte also being used. Many vegetables, flowers, small fruits and shrubs are good subjects for mulching. Dahlias, tomatoes, peppers, eggplants and cucumbers may be mulchted with straw, leaves, cardboard or hea vy paper. Azaleas, camellias, and blue berries which desire an acid soil may be mulched with saw dust, lteafmold or peat. Red res pberries, dewberries and grapes may be mulched with straw or strawy manpre. Most mulches should be put down after the soil has been well KILLS INSECTS THE i When you protect your tomato and potato plants with Dragon Tomato Dust it’s like, putting up a gate and locking destructive blights out.

WAS SUCH AN EXPERT ON DOMESTIC / WHY DO VOL) HAVE > (50 MAW/ B0VFBIEMD5? This Is The Law By Robert E. Lee (For the N. C. Bar Association) INTEREST What is the legal rate of inte rest in North Carolina? Six per cent a year. That is, for a loan of one hundred dollars for a period of one year, the intertest on the same is six dollars. By an agreement between the par tites, the interest may be at a les ser rate of interest. The rate of interest is not neces sarily all of the'expenses incur ited by a borrower on a loan. These additional expenses may depend upon the business prac tices and policies of the particu lar lender, thte financial respon sibility of the borrower, and the type of property the borrower offers as security. For example, if a person is borrowing montey on real pro perty, the borrower is customa rily required to pay the lender for the services of the attorney employted to search the title to the property and to draft the necessary legal documents. The cost of registering the legal docu ments in thte court house is paid by the borrower. Some lenders in sist that title insurance be pur chased and that a survey of the property be madte, the cost of which to be paid by the borrower. The lender may also insist that adequate fire and casualty insur ance be carried on thte property. There is occasionally paid for the securing of the loan a brokerage fee or commission. The latter is somtetimes called a “service charge,” "origination fee,” or “settlement charges.” Industrial banks and licensed loan agencies and brokers are permitted to charge a statutory “interest at a rate not exceeding six per centum per annum upon the amount of the loan from the date thereof until the maturity of the final installment, nothwith standing that the principal a mount of such loan is required to be repaid in installments.” Jones borrowed $1,000 from Smith and agreed to pay him in terest at the rate of 8 per cent per year. How much interest can Smith recover from Jones at the end of the year? Nona, tsy cnarging a greater in terest than 6 per cent per year, Smith forfeits under the law of North Carolina all interest on the debt. The debt is stripped of all its interest bearing quality, and the lender is permitted to recov er only the principal sum loan ed. If Jones has already paid to Smith the agreed interest of 8 per cent per year, he may recov er from Smith within two years after doing so twice the amount of the interest paid. This Is a pe nalty that Smith has to pay to Jones for receiving from him more than the legal rate of inte rest. Adams recovers a judgtement against Butler for personal in juries. Does the amount of the judgement automatically bear in terest from thte date it was ren dered? Yes. Interest is allowed on the principal sum of the judgement from the time it is rendered until it is paid and satisfied. More than 159 different kinds of beans are grown in the United States.
