are several things a landowner

Where can one get seedlings? On
what kind of soil should they be

where can they be marketed,

Before planting any kind OF

check with his county

agent can tell you the kind to

Certified Seed
Sweet Potatoes
Now Available

I'm past years, many farmer:
have been securing seed swee,
potatoes from other states" says
+. W. Mclaughlin. Assistant
Director of the North Carolina
Crop Improvement Association
This may no longer be necessary
rs 1888 acres of certified seed
sweet potatoes were produced
this year in North Carolina. This
seed supply is enough to plant
approximately 300 acres, he
points out.
OF this seed supply available
Porto Rico accounted for the
largest number of acres with 81
acres. Other certified production
included Copper Skinned Gold
Rush. Gold Rush and Earlyport,
These seed potatoes were grown
under the supervision of the AS
Sociation, says Mclaughlin. The
production was inspected in the
field as we'll as in storage, he
adds.
Mclaughlin points out that for
the farmer to produce an accept
able crop of sweet potatoes, he
must be sure that his growing
potatoes are free from two dis
eases - scurf and blackrot. To
get seed that is free of these
diseases. ne advises farmers C
insist on North Carolina grown
certified seed. Wilt, n disease
that kills the plants in the field
can be carried in the seed or
in the land. Therefore. 4 farmer
will want 10 get seed as free Of
wilt as is possible. This certified
seed Is inspected in the field for
low tolerance Of wilt. he adds.
Storage inspection will be
made in detail for the presence
OF biackrot. Scurf, wilt. and othcr
damaging diseases. Potatoes are
also checked for external and

The soil In which such seed.

en- carefully, warns Whitfield
First of all. a soil test should be
taken to determine the level oil
acidity and the level Of phos-
phate. Spruces and Balsams will
not do well on a non-acid soil
If the field has been lined with

likely to be suited for Christmas

take trees off your hands if you
had large enough quantities to
supply their demand. Small
quantities could be sold locally
but this market is extremely
limited, Whitfield points out

be wise to check with buyers to
determine marketing possibilit-
les, he adds.

Church officials said electrical
power to the Cathedral was
knocked out but is expected to
be restored for the first service
lat 1880 am. tomorrow.
The broken main was discov-

water line apparently was broken
by the weight Of a large crane
which was being used to lift
stones into place on Cathedral

Church officials said damage

Prescott Denies
Taking Stand in
|Judgeship Race
Statement Made
To 'CIurify Stond. :
Jurist Explains

Judge Stedman Prescott, newly
appointed to the Maryland Court
Iof Appeals after serving as chief
Judge Of the Circuit Court Of
Montgomery and Frederick
Counties. says he has taken nc
Official stand in the Montgomery
County judgeship race.
In a statement released yester-
day, Judge Prescott said ''it
seems desirable / clarity my posi-
ton" relative to the four-Way
race for two court seats.
Being an elected judge and in
1854 the nominee of both parties,
] considered it wrong for me to
indorse any Notwithstanding
myself open to sit in harmony
and congeniality with anyone
chosen by the people," Judge
Prescott declared.
Explained to Candidate
He said this was explained to
jail of the candidates-incum-
bent Judges Thomas B. Ander-
son and Kathryn J. Lawlor and
their opponents, County Juvenile
Court Judge Alfred D. Moves and
County Attorney Charles M. Ire
lan-and said none disagreed
with his view.
At the time of his accepting
the appeals court appointment,
he said he issued a statement
which apparently had been con-
Istrued in some quarters as an
Endorsement of Judge Ander-
son and Judge Lawlor.
The statement, he said, read:
Upon accepting this high post,
II leave the local bench in the
capable and experienced hands
of the new chief judge, Patrick
I'M. Schnauffer, and the associate
judges. Thomas NJ. Anderson
and Kathryn Lawlor."
Used In Political Ads
Several political advertise
lments on behalf of the latter two
candidates have carried parts of
that statement.
Asserting he "can serve with
complete harmony with any two
the people elect" the new APP
Ipellate Judge added: -. I have
the highest regard and esteem
for them ALL"
The two incumbent judges are
Republicans while Mr.. Noyes
and Mr.. Irelan are Democrats.
The election. however, is on a
Inonpartisan basis. Judge Prescott
also is a Democrat.
