Then consult Miss Gertrude
James, 7O7 81. Anthony Ave-, who
has been q sAut-in for the past 10
months because Of a severely
broken ankle.
Miss James could school anyone
on the art Of working q jig-saw
puzzle, knitting, crocheting, or the
selection and getting the most
out Of reading material. She had
time to become an expert on
these while recuperating from q
broken ankle she suffered in
May of 1949.
That month the II year old wo-
man slipped on the steps and
broke her ankle-a clean break
that almost severed her foot that
month. Doctors did not expect the
break to heal, but heal It did, and
now she Is able TO walk most Of
the time without Hmping.
Miss Chapman is one Of the few
living native st. PauItes. She
was born August 10, 1873 on
Cooper Street, now Sibley. She
was one Of the six children Of
Louise and Edward James. How
ever, Miss James does not re-
member much of the early de-
velopment Of st. Paul, as she left
nome at the age Of 10 for New
York. TO work with the YWCA.
Some of her later years were
spent at work in Chicago, Nor

Miss James joined Pilgrim Bap-

the church was not much older,
and has been a faithful member
ever since. She speaks Of her
present minister, Rev. Floyd Mas
sey Jr., with admiration. and he,
in turn. says that her courage
surpasses that OF many younger
persons.
In commenting on the attitudes
Of the young men entering the
army as compared TO those who
entered during the first World
War, Miss James says there IL
quite a difference. The young
people now seem TO realize the
seriousness Of the present con-
nict, whereas then they entered
the army with the idea Of having
a grand adventure.

Trees And Timber Talk
by c. w. Comfort
u. S. Forest Service

This fall nature will supply us
with fair crop of southern pine
seed. For the past two years the
seed crop of southern pines has
been very poor and as result
seed will be in demand and
should bring good prices in Octo.
Der.
The green pine cones or burrs
are now about two inches long
and may be seen just few in
ches back from the tips of the
branch twigs.
1t is advisable to look your pine
trees over now and make plans
TO collect pine cones in October.
The price of green pine cones
will probably be about two dol
lars per bushel. The best way to
collect pine cones is from the
tops of. felled trees at logging
operations If you plan on selling
timber this year it might be pro-
fitable to wait until early Octo-
Der to fell the trees. Quite often
the value of the pine cones on a
large top tree is worth from one
fourth to the full price of the
tree itself.
Other methods of collecting
pine cones are by use of long
pruning hooks used from the
ground to pull the cones off the
twigs, or by climbing the trees
and pushing the cones off with
shorter pruning hooks.
1t is possible for one man to
collect six to eight bushels of
southern pine cones per day at
a logging operation. Smaller a.
mounts are collected from stand
ing trees.
Cones will be bought locally.
Before collecting cones get in
formation on what to collect,
when to start collecting and how
to handle cones after they are
collected.
Remember, the next time you
walk through your woodlands OBJ
serve the open grown pine trees
and notice the presence of the
green pine cones about two inch
es long, just back from the ends
OF the twigs. This may mean
money in your pocket this fall.

In checking over cotton fields in
Holmes County the past weekend
| find that boil weevils are very
numerous in all fields in the hill
area and in most feds in the del
Ia. Reports from the State
Plant Board show that boil wee
vii infestation in Holmes Coun-
ty is two to three times higher
than in most other counties in
the state In talking with DR.. Clay
Lyle, State Entomologist, h e
states that it is going to be abb
solutely necessary to kill this ear
ly crop of weevils with poison in
order to make a fair or average
cotton crop. Even though we are
having some hot dry weather it
will not control these old wee
wills. In order to get an early crop
control it will be necessary to
poison once each week for three
weeks. You may dust or spray.
If you are busting use seven to
eight pounds of $40 or $3.50 or
If the weather continues to be
good you will get good control
with 20 per cent toxaphene at
the rate of seven to eight pounds
per acre when cotton is small,
and ten pounds when it is little
larger. Do your busting in late
afternoon for best results.
Where using spray it is neces-
sary to get good coverage of
plant. 1t would be advisable to
use three nozzles per row if your
cotton is eight to ten inches or
above in height.
Keep a close watch on your
spray rigs at all times as the
nozzies are very easy to stop up
and you may cover several acres
with a nozzle stopped up, there
by not getting results that you
should get. | examined three
spray rigs in the fields Friday
afternoon and two of the rigs
We're stopped up completely and
the tractor operator had not OBJ
served this. He did not know
how many acres he had covered
with it stopped up. So keep a
close observation on your spray
rig while it is being operated.
Poison is going to be scare in
a few days. | would estimate that
you need enough material for at
least six applications in order to
control the weevil this year.
