Japanese Beetle Is
Invading All Sussex
County Agent Snyder Warns That
Stiff Fight Must Be Launched

The Japanese beetle is slowly in
vading all communities of Sussex
county according to reports receiv-
ed by c. r. Snyder, county agricul-
tural agent. This destructive pest
is almost sure to be around for
several years, and because of this
residents should work hard to COM
bat the invader.
The beetle feeds upon more than
two hundred species of plants in
Guiding shade and fruit trees,
thrubs, flowers and vegetables.
Since they 40 not ffke to feed upon
sprayed foliage, the control CON
sists largely of spraying the plants
that are to be protected, thereby
forcing the beetles to feed else
where. When spraying plants it is
necessary to maintain heavy de-
posit of spray residue on all por-
tions of the plant. The materials.
now recommended are primarily
and the protection is OBJ
tanned by making the plants nom
attractive rather than poisoning the
beetles. Trapping the beetles is a
supplementary control measure,
hence adequate protection can only
be obtained by thorough spraying.
1t is important to apply the first
spray as soon as the beetles ap-
pear, and the second application
should be made from 7-10 days la
ter. The. plants should be well COW
cred during the beetle season.

State Offices To Stay
Open On Saturdays
Heads OF Departments Decide That
Holiday Is Not In Public Interest


State department heads at a con-
ference with Secretary of State
Earle D. Wiley recently decided
against Saturday closing of state
offices in Difference to the public
interests.
However, in some offices only
skeleton staffs will be maintained
while in others practically the full
forces will be held on duty. In all
cases, there will be adequate staffs
to meet the needs of the public,
Secretary Wiley announced fol-
lowing the conference.
The much-discussed matter of
closing on Saturdays had been left
to the department heads, with the
recent conference bringing about
the decision to remain open.
Each department will be guided,
in determining the number of its
personnel to be kept on duty, by
the work confronting the depart
ment and the attention necessary
to public needs. There is assured,
however, some Saturdays off for
different Of the employees.

Kent Firemen
Met At Bowers
Last Wednesday
Maryland Fire School
Official Was Guest At
12Sth Session OF The
Association.

g. G. Laramofe, of Easton, Md,
connected with the Maryland Fire
School, was a guest at the 128th
meeting of the Kent County Fire
mems Association held at South
Bowers on Wednesday night of last
week. Mr.. Laramore spoke on ma
tional defense and the part volun-
teer firemen will play. Mr.. Lara
more declared that many Maryland
firemen are getting deferred be-
cause their trained services are
badly needed in an emergency in
case of air raids and the dropping
of incendiary bombs causing many
fires, with men of draft age being
removed from the ranks of the vol
unteer companies, they would be
seriously handicapped in their
duties and men unframed could
not be expected to be as efficient.
President Emory Webb presided
over the meeting and called upon
Howard Stotesbury, president of
the host company who welcomed
the fremen to South Bowers.
george W.. swain, OF harrington,
responded. At roll call three COM
panies, Clayton, Smyrna and Hart
ly were not represented; three Of
ficers also were absent.
After County Fire Recorder Tom
Baker of Dover, had given his re-
port, the matter of finances was
discussed and the firemen began to
wonder why the checks for their
share of the go insurance fund
1ad not been sent out. Sussex
county firemen had already receiv-
ID their money and it was brought
,ut that the fund had been turned
,ver to the Kent County Levy
court. The secretary was instruct
