FARM HINTS
TOBACCO GROWERS
VOTE JULY 18th

Flue-cured tobacco growers in
North Carolina, South Carolina,
Georgia and Florida will be Civ
en- opportunity to vote July IL
on whether or not they wish to
pay ten cents per acre on their
allotted acreage of tobacco to
keep the Tobacco Associates, Inc,
in operation for 1913 and 1949.
The Tobacco Associates, Inc, an
organization set up and support
ed by flue-cured tobacco growers
and warehousemen for the sole
purpose of helping to find mar
ket for our flue-cured tobacco.
Normally about fifty percent OF
our flue-cured tobacco is sold to
foreign markets but conditions
after the war are such that a
great many of our good custo-
mers are not in position to buy
our tobacco and we are forced to
hunt new consumers OF Amerl-
can flue-cured tobacco and that
is the Job the Tobacco Associates
Inc, have set out to do. This is
not a government supported or
eanization and to operate efflc-
iently it must have funds and each
tobacco grower is asked to help
support the organization that will
find a market for the tobacco
GROWERS.

BOIL WEEVIL
INFESTATION INCREASES

Recent check ups on cotton
fields in Horny county show that
boil weevil infestation is increas-
ing rapidly. Some fields showed
as high as % percent of the
other fields showed practically no
sign of weevils at all. With cool,
rainy weather continuing, indica-
tions are that weevils will jNt
about destroy the crop in some in

TOBACCO DISEASES

The i'll effects of plantinb to-
bacco too often on the same land
is gradually creeping up on us
and at the present rate of spread
it will soon overtake us. Tobac-
co diseases, mainly Granville
wilt, is showing up in most every
section of the county this year.
A few cases of Fusarium wilt
have also been found along with
varying amounts of damage done
by cola skin or collar rot.
Granville wilt may show up on
any age tobacco plant. The symp-
toms of this wilt are that a leaf
or perhaps two or three leaves on
one side of the stalk of tobacco
will wilt down, then in a few days
other leaves will wilt and finally
the whole plant will die. In Sc
we're cases most every stalk of
tobacco in a badly infested spot

WATCH OUT FOR
GARDEN INSECTS

Bean beetles are readily con-
trolled by busting the underside
of the leaves with three fourths
to one percent Rotone dust every
10 days to two weeks. Sabadilla
will rid the cabbage and collards
or Harlequin (suck bugs. The to-
mato fruit worm can be control
led by using the following: Studies
by the S. C. Experiment Station
showed poisoned Bordeaux to be
the most effective spray tested. A
4-45O Bordeaux mixture with one
pound of arsenate of lead was
sprayed on the plants, beginning
when first fruits appeared.

POTATO HILL MARKER

I saw a handy gadget at work
on Mr.. Hayes farm up near Green
Sea last week. 1t was a potato
hill marker, contraption that
marked the beds so that the hills
of potatoes would all be the
same distance apart. 1t was a
wheel-like thing with the spokes
set at the desired distance apart,
and the light Stats that marked
the hill were long enough to mark
two rows at time. A small boy
of 10 or II years was doing a
good job with the outfit.
It's easy to make too.
