Seed Expert In
County This Week
Extension Seed Specialist
Stresses Importance Of
Certified Seed

Howard. R. Garriss, extension
plant pathologist from State Col
1ege was in Ashe county this week
observing snap bean seed which
is in the hands of dealers in the
county. cit is gratifying to have
observed that a very progressive
step has been taken in Ashe coun-
ty in furnishing farmers with
bean seed with a guarantee of
freedom from diseases. especially
from nailhead rust" he said.
Samples of bean seed from
sacks carrying the blue tag and
seal of the Idaho Crop Improve
ment Association were examined
and found to be of outstanding
quality and uniformity. "Pur-
chase of bean seed carrying this
Idaho Crop Improvement Asso-
citation tag of inspection insures
the grower of having disease
free seed for planting" he ex-
planned.
'"The grower must remember
that if disease-free seed are plant
ed in fields where beans were
grown last year he may have dis
ease troubles resulting from in
lection carried over in the soil and
old diseased plants. Use the dis
ease-free seed in fields where
beans were not grown last year,
if convenient he advised.
Samples Of bean seed observ
ed not carrying the blue tag
were not of as good quality and
uniformity and apparently car
ried either bacterial blight OF
nailhead rust infection. It is ex-
kpected that growers using the
poorer quality seed seen in the
county may run into some tror :
BILE from Diseases" he concluded.

James B. Hensley, revealed
that stamp sales, as well as

O67.61; So, 1859 and S2,710.11,

New Projects
Being Made In
Industrial Arts

The Industrial Arts Department,
under the direction of Mr.. Gayman,
has been more active this year than
in the past few years.
Each student is now required to
take six weeks of mechanical draw
ing and of woodwork. The wood
work projects offered to students
taking industrial arts for the first
time are: A tabouret, a shoe polish
ing box, and book shelf.
The boys in the Industrial De-
partment are busy in gaining basic
knowledge in various fields of shop
work; as in woodwork, acetylene
welding, sheet metal, mechanical
drawing, foundry, and steel lathe
work. A number of old machines
have been repaired and re-arranged
to make greater efficiency and safe
ty for the students.
Several boys have completed
drawing, tracing, and developing
blue prints from their drawings.
Various projects in woodwork are
being made; such as foot stools,
tabourets, hall trees, end tables,
chest of drawers, book racks, and
what-not shelves.
In acetylene welding the art of
uniting broken articles by steel
YIELDS and brazing keeps the boys
busy. An electric arc welding ma
chine would modernize our shop.
In sheet metal the many "do nots"
are answered or experienced in
bending and soldering.
The steel lathe is operated by a
few that can get the opportunity to
use it. Another lathe for the shop
would give more and greater oppor-
tunity for the boys for practice.
