The first; “I want to plant a I red climbing rose which will not be troubled with mildevv and such ailments.” There are many good climbers, among them would be: Blaze (red); Crimson Glory; Clim inj Peace (blooms as Peace); Golden Showers (yellow); Red Erpress; and White Dawm. Since he want ed a red, I suggested Blaze. The second part of his question is something everyone wants - roses that are immune to insect and disease pests It is true that some varieties rtiay, under ce;’ tain conditions of environment, Be'more resistant to diseases than others but this does not preclude the necessity for following a reg- Clar spray or dUst p^fogram to control both insects and diseases. I think the most unusual re quest I ^have ever received was this onel “I want to plant crab- apple trees on the school grounds but I do not want fruit to form. Can you recommend a spray that irright be used to prevent fruit formation?” This one floored me so, know ing the caller real well, I tried to .)-.uild up a case in favor of let ting the fruit form. I told him that I liked the ornamental effect of the small fruits and the con trast in color with the green leaves. Also, that every plant has cha racter and that fruit production was a characteristic of the crab- apple. Then, too, the Home Eco nomics girls might make him some jelly which would prevent the fruits froTi dropping and cluttering the lawn, his main ob jection. I got nowhere and gave in. It is possible to prevent the for mation of fruit by using NAA I (naphthalene acetic acid), di'S- solved in water, as a spray. The concentration should be 40 parts I per nullion and the spray Stiould be applied thoroughly after all blossoms have opened and the I petals are shedding. I In recent years the apple grow- I ers have been using NAA for thinning their trees to reduce the fruit load but the concentration is I lower and the tihiing of the spray I is later than I have recommend ed for the crabapple problem. I The pest season is upon us so be well prepared to do battle I with the many insects and dis- ' eases which attack most of our garden plants. Check with your nurseryman, your garden center or your county agent. And, before using any pesticide - STOP, r»:ad the label. Include These Costs In Tax Report GREENSBORO, N. C. — Tax payers whose jobs require j spe cial apparel or equipment as a condition of employment or occu pation may include the cost and upkeep among itemized deduc tions, today said J. E.

Nurses’ uniforms, for example, and other clothing which cannot be worn in place of regular dress, qualify for deduct!ans, the Inter nal Revenue Service said.

Blake, extension agronc ry specialist at North Carolina State University. Cool-season grasses are very popular in North Carolina, but they should not be depended up on far summer growth, Blake points out. By planting warm- season perennial grasses, farm ers could lower production costs and have an adequate source of feed during summer months, he said. ExcOss production could be cut for, hay or silage for winter f eeclifT^ Coastal bermudagrass is a warm - season perennial crop which is widely adapted in North Carolina. It is grown from the coast to the central Piedmont, except in poorly drained areas. Coastal berrr.'uda is especially a- dapted^to the Sandhills of North Carolina, Blake adds. Coastal beiiruda is similar to common bermudagrass or wire- grass in appearance. It is larger, more vigorous and more product ive. “Coastal termuda is relatively frge from insects and" diseases and sometimes used in rotation with other crops,” Blake said. Peak growth comes during hot weather. Since it has a three to five month growing season, Blake says Coastal Bermuda can take the pressure off Ladino- grass pastures. The iir ain use for Coastal ber- muda is summer grazing, how ever, it can be grown for hay or silage. About four and one-half tons of dry matter per acre can he taken off by grazing animals or aboiut five tons per acre can be cut for hay, Blake adds. “This yield is equivalent to 120 to 130 bushels of corn per acre.” N. C. State agronomy soecial- ists recommend one-fourth acre for each animal unit when cool season grasses provide some of the feed supply. One-half acre uer animal is needed if Coastal bermuda is the prinaary source of feed. Since Coastal bermudagrass is a hybrid, it has no seed. Certified sorings should be used to get the crop started, Blake said. Sprig-_ ging should he done in March or early April. Soil preparation tot Coastal bermuda is much the same as for other grass crops, points out Blake. Soil /tests should be taken to get acturate lime and fertiliz er requirements. Coastal bermuda will tolerate fairly acid soils, but lime is es-^ sentiai for continuous production. Lime may be worked into the soil before or (luring land prepara tion. Extension agronomy specialists recommend row applications of fertilizer to reduce weed com petition and to give grass a fast er start. Usually about 400 pounds of 0-14-14 per acre is used in rows. Thirty to 40 pounds of ni trogen should be applied in ear ly May and again in July. Coastal bermuda is explained in Extension Circular No. 451. It is available at county extension offices or can be obtained from the Department of Agricultural Information, North Carolina State University, Raleigh.
