Farmers Urged to
Make Labor Needs
For Season known

Valley county farmers, IN order to
cooperate with movements on foot
to secure more farm labor, should
make known their labor needs for
this season Immediately, it was de-
clared today by the county depart
ment of agriculture war board.
Several weeks ago we sent out
blanks to farmers asking them to
state their labor needs and return
the blanks to our office" one board
member commented.
$50 far, the returns have been dis
appointing. We most certainly can
not ask for help from various agen-
cies until we are able to give them
a clear picture of how much labor
and what kind is needed in the
county. If the farmer wants some
help, he should give us some help"

new INsECTICIDE REPORTED SUCCESSFUL
Leblanc" Effective as Rote-
none Replacement on Pea,
Bean and Cole Crops

INSECT destruction of essentia
U. S. vegetable crops threatened
by the rotenone shortage can be
prevented by a synthetic insect
eide, according to large vegetable
growers and State Experiment
Stations who have completed ex
tensive tests with a new "thio
.yanate" type of insecticide known
as Lethane.
Addition of this new insect
killer to rotenone dusts saves hall
to third of the rotenone previous
ly required for controlling insects
lnfesting pea, bean and cole crops
It is expected that enough Lethane
will be produced this year to re.
place the 100000 lbs. of badly
needed rotenone roots which Axis
Submarines and War in the Pacific
will keep from this country. The
limited amount of rotenone which
South America is getting to us is
about half the amount we need.
TO stretch available supplies as far
rs possible the w. P. B. has limited
the rotenone content Of dusts to no
more than " of 10, which is con-
siderably less than the amounts
previously thought essential.
Recently published tests on the
pea aphid by DR.. H. e. Wilson and
e. J. Campau of the Wisconsin Ex-
pertinent Station in cooperation
with the U. S. Bureau of Entomol-
ogy and Plant Quarantine show
that replacing the bulk of the rote-
none with Lethane yielded dust
absolutely safe to plants and even
more effective than straight pre-
war rotenone dusts. These results
have been confirmed by the Vir-
ginia Truck Crop Experiment Sta
tions, by Stokely Brothers Tennes-
see Farms and other large pea
growers.
On the Mexican Bean Beetle and
the Black Bean Aphid, which to-
gether annually devour at least
1870 of our bean crops, results also
show that Lethane successfully re-
places at least 500 to $50 Of the
rotenone usually used.
