To blame are last spring’.s unfav- , oijable weather and the two-year I , cyclical sature of pitcan produc tion. I Suspected a.s a contributing, factor is the failure cf many tree i owners to fertilize regularly. j The current Tar Heel ipecan crop Ls forecast at only 6(K),nO() pounds, the smpHesl .since 19.>5 and the .ser-ond smalle.st since 1925. Compared to last year's Nortli Carolina production of a bounti ful 6.5 million pounds, this year’.-; output borders on crop failure. The 1971 crop wa.s a state rec ord. Mel Kobe, horticultural .‘jjec- ialist at North Carolina State University, pointed out that trees tend to produce light crops on alternate years, e.specially if they aren’t fertilized regularly. Witli the big '71 crep, this year's pro duction would hnvo been down somewhat but not nearly as low as current forcca.st.s indicate had growing conditions been more favorable. Cold, rainy weather at pollin- ation time wgis the No. 2 factor this year, Kclbe believes. Bolh cold temperatures and rain hin der pecan pollination. Last spring’s weather brought both — plug a late frost. Other produc'tion factors include generally poor tree condition go ing into last winter, and disea.se.s, particularly scab. The alternate good one-ycar- .poor-tlie-next bi-aring pattern of j peean tree.s is usually what puz- j zlcs most people. Kolbe explain ed: When the tree blooms, the male 'bloom conurs on last year’s woorl while the female blocm comes on the new wood. This ig evidenced by the cluster of pecaas on the very tips of the branches. If for any rea.son the male blooms are out and the female blooms aren’t, there is no 'chance of pollination. The weather and the general condition of the tree are two factors that can afferrt ixjllination. Kiolbc suggests that growers don’t ■fertilize their tree.s as they should to help assure better an nual production. The rule of thumb for ipecan trees is three pounds of fertilizer, such as 10- 10-10, for every one inch of tree diameter measured one fbot a bove the ground. For example, a ' 10-inch tree would Teccive 30 • ' pounds of fertilizer. This should be divided equally into two ap- i plications. Tire first should be I applied ■before buds open and the other half when the male blrHims arc .showing. The feirfilizer can be placed in a circle around the tree about the same dtstance from the trunk as the outer branches—the drip lino, in other word.s. H the tree is in a yard and there is danger of the fertilizer burning the grass, the fertilizer can be put in .small holes punch ed in the ground near the tree’s drip line. Fertilizer should be applii'd annually. .STAIN SHIELDS Spray-on stain repellents have to “warm up” to their job after a garment had been laundered, note extension home economics specialists, North Carolina State University. The repellent “hides” in spaces in the fabric when washed. But, if you put the gar ment in the dryer, or iron It, the stain shield will re-coat the fib ers. NOT SIMILAR Despite the similarity in names, acetate and 'triacetate are two very different fibers. Acetate is sometimes called a "problem” fib er, because it is “weak” and gen erally not machine washable. Check the label when you buy acetate, to see if “dry-clean oily” Is recommended, advise extension clotlUng specialists. North Caro lina State University, Triacetate is washable, however. It can be Iron at a higher temperature than acetate, also. NON-FOOD MO.NEY As much as thirty-eight cents of every dollar you spend from the “food” budget may be spent for non-food items, reminds Mrs. Ruby Uzzle, extension consumer marketing economist.
