Boil Weevil Numbers

Boil Weevil Numbers
Despite the extreme cold thi:
winter, cotton growers are ad-
vised to stock insecticides for con
troll of the boil weevil and other
cotton insects.
What per cent of the hibernat-
ing weevils were killed by the
cold weather is not known now
state entomologists say. The wee.
| wills hibernate in such varied
places as hay stacks, barns, edges
| of woods, down from four to six
inches in litter and under bark
of trees.
Damage is not determined so
much by the number of weevils
that come into the cotton fields
in the spring, as by the amount
Of rainfall in May, June and
July.
A small number of Weevils COM
bined with a wet spring could
mean heavy damage in July and
August.
Buy poisons now and store
them, as a shortage is expected.
Any not used can be carried over
another year if stored properly.
A good plan is to purchase SO
pounds of dust insecticides, or
the equivalent in liquids, for each
acre of cotton grown in 1851.
See the county agent for this
| years cotton insect control re-
concentrations.
Vaccinute Farm Animals
Spring is approaching and that
is the normal season for a mum.
| Der of diseases of livestock. Every
| spring we have an outbreak OF
cholera and hemorrhagic septic
i emia in hogs and black leg and
hemorrhagic septicemia in calves
Now is the time to have your
hogs vaccinated against cholera
and hemorrhagic septicemia. Vac
cinate your calves for black leg
and hemorrhagic %septicemia be-
fore young grass begins to put
out. Vaccination is cheap insur-
ance on any livestock. The life
of one calf would pay for vac
cination of all your calves for the
next ten years. WRccinate all
calves under two years of age
for black leg that have not been
vaccinated. If you have vaccin-
ated your calves for black leg it
is only necessary to vaccinate for
black leg once.

Time Savers
Learning to control time, energy
and fatigue are important to hap
py living. Some of the methods
for controlling these are planning,
acquiring skills and techniques,
improving methods of doing
things, improving working con
ditions and through the use of
| personal help and commercial
/ time savers.
! Analyze routine household tasks
and see just what each requires
then plan ways to shorten the
time spent on each individual
task. Rhythm helps makes rou-
tine jobs easier. Whistling while
you work is fun and almost makes
the work seem like play.
Do you ever try to do youl
daily dozen" while making beds,
sweeping or busting? BY bending
properly at the knees and hips
rather than grunting as you bend
improperly from the waist. you
can keep those joints "oiled up"
and while making your work
really count, use up all those
| calories.
Two good slogans for reaching
the goal of happy living are mind
your notion" and make every
! motion count" Do not forget to
set aside at least one hour each
day for your personal S - use
1T as you please - either read,
gossip" or just sit and rest.

Gardening time is here anc
every family with an available
plot should have a garden OF
some type this year, whether II
be a half acre or a pocket size
garden. Recent freezes delayed
gardening somewhat but there is
still time to have a full spring

The preserving of food involves
canning, drying and storage OF
surplus supplies of vegetables and
fruits. Even if there are no sur
pluses from the garden. house
wives can buy fresh vegetables
for considerably lower prices dur

The value of home garden pro-

What should I do?
A-You should wait, for you
probably will receive a second
check. You held two policies
during the three year period
covered by the second dividend,
and you should receive a separ-
ate check for each policy based
on the anniversary date of each
policy. If you fail to receive a
second check in due time, write
to the VA District Office that
handles your insurance. Don't
write VA in Washington, D. c.
Q-May I receive both dis
ability compensation and State
benefits for old age?
Ayes. VA has no restriction,
so far as compensation is con-
cerned.
Veterans and their dependents

Thanksgiving turkey and the

Nurses Show How 1t Can Be Done
HrOm The Louisville Defenderl

The National Association of Coloreds Graduate
Nurses has been able to do unusual thing namely to
voluntarily go out of existence separate organZa-
ton of professional because there no longer re-
mains the necessity for such segregated body After
AZ years of organized effort to improve Negro nurses
this group of women have by their permitted
themselves to be absorbed into the American Nurses
Association the white counterpart of their own organi
zation.
The Negro organization has had for several years
the peculiar and encouraging experience of being wooed
by the white association Sincere and tactful working
of plans by leaders in both groups has ended in the me-
ger So there is bit of democracy in reality in
America.
The forty years of working and waiting on the part
of leading white and Negro have rolled UP an ex
ceen record Since the founding of the Negro group the
number of schools for admitting qualified stu
dents has increased from IA to 800 The number of state
nurses associations not admitting Negro nurses has de-
creased from II to five; and the liberal white national
organization accepted Negro an individual
basis when their state organizations barred them from
membership. During the four decades more and more
Negro have been ntegrated into hospital staffs
public health agencies, and military and veteran
vices
From the services of the white national body
will function for all regardless of race proceed
ing the truism that disease and i'll health recognize
racial religious lines In this merger of
cal about the workablity of Indignation have it would
convincing demonstration OF it's practically. 1t
what the have DONE and what is going in the
Air Force Navy and Army, and the admission of stu
dents Southern schools the basis of quafica
ton only does convince the doubling Thomases what
on earth will But shall not despair of their eventual
conversion.
This merger of the National Association of Coored
Graduate Nurses and American Nurses Association will
not only contribute to the interests OF Negro nurses
such-and the white nurses toc-but it sets example
in applied democracy which other organizations, still
fearing indignation, will ultimately follow

Now It's DR.. Dubois

There evidently two kinds of Communism in the
minds OF the American people today Communism as it
would be understood and Communism as it is misun-
dersood Of the people in this country interested in or
worried about Communism the majority of them I'M
fortunately have the latter conception of Communism
Out of this miscOnception of Communism has come
the fear and hyStera which has grpped part of our
popuace but even at that it very probably be shown
that the enemies OF democracy and the friends of Com
munlSm IN this country form very small proportion
OF our population 1t hardly believabe that there is
large segment of American people who obsessed
with Communist ideas and designs that they are ready
to overthrow this government
most unfortunate thing is that so many of the
best citizens of America have been either suspected ac
cused, indicted as Communists or fellow Travellers
Thoughtful and balanced Americans have been surprs
ed at the Smearng branding of people whom thev
know to be good Americans by most any test of LOYALTY
Inc hystera over Communism is much like the hvSteria
about Wtchcraft in the early history of this country
Although hysteria is in evidence all the country
every good American is in the crusade against C0mmIn
ism.
And now DR.. w. E. B. Dubois is being accused of
beng guilty OF being the agent of foreign principal or
agency and failing to report his connection Herewith Is
Or. DUBOIS case like that of many eminent Ameri-
cans upon whom the finger of guilt has been placed?
Some Americans who know better and many who do
not know cOnfound belief in real democracy and the ex
posing OF the shortcomings of proessed democracy with
Communism.
1t is true that DR.. Dubois has been fighting hard
for years. but he has been striving persstenty unear
mgly, and unevasvey to improve and strengthen de-
mocracy In America, not to overthrow it. Across this
country thousands who hope that those who hear his
case will be convinced that friend of democracy and
not its foe stands before them

LIFE AT A
GLANCE
By RAY LAWRENCE

"He That Is Without Sin, Cast
The First Stone"
The basketball fix in New York
City has in the opinion of this cor
ner, evoked more headlines than
necessary-but maybe there are
not enough of headlines about why
such talented youngsters as those
of CCNY who had not only made
the headlines because of their
mastery when tested with stiff
competition, but the underlying
causes that seemed not only an
Infectious inducement to them, but
to many of us-"The Almighty
Dollar"
If we label these young college
students as crooks, then we must
pin the same unwarranted stain on
some of our high Government of
ficials, and other men who are
trusted with the responsibility Of
| Law and Order who could not defy
the urge to partake of the foun-
tain filled with Dollars"
Let us not get the impression
that throwing a basketball game
or any other sport or public enter
'tainment for that matter, should
not be severely censured. What
these young college students did
is not right by any standard of
moral integrity, but then if we
are to judge our society by edu-
cation, using colleges and univer-
sites as a yard stick, certainly
we must go far behind the scene
of a fix on a college basketball
team for the answer. If our moral
standards are no more responsive
than those which induce young
men to be tragically crushed in
the avalanche of national urge
for the dollar, then we had better
close up college shop.
But then, that would not solve
the problem. What America needs
is the teaching of self-responsibil-
ity and moral leadership-the
kind of christian teaching that is
strong enough to REBEL ferocious-
ly at offers of dollars. We need
a society where the dollar is not
Cod and that you must possess it
regardless of how you get it. A
very few men will close their eyes
to fabulous offers Of dollars, but
many will cry out loud at those
who in their opinion have sinned.
