Egyptian Theater in Hollywood

been made, but an MGM an

though a lot will happen be-
tween now and then. i
Stanley Chase, the producer,
and Robert Breen, the director,
plan to open the all-Negro mu-
steal on November IL in The
Hague, The Netherlands. After
that it will be taken on a So
week tour of Europe. following
in the footsteps of "Porgy and
BesS." a roaring success abroad.
Then, present plans are. there
will follow West Coast en-
gagement prior to Broadway,
with Mr.. Davis joining the
company six weeks or so be-
fore the New York opening. |
This is tentatively set for Sep
TENDER. 1860, with another
company then setting off on
another European tour.
This travelling troupe, or
still another one, will take the
musical on to the Far East. |
This is about as far as the
"Free and Easy" plans go right |
now, but 1t seems far enough |

County Agents Notes

Chemical Weed Control On Cotton
If you are depending on day la
Dor for chopping your cotton it
would be advisable to pre-emerge
cotton at planting time. A good job
of pre-emerging will prevent grass
from coming into your cotton from
4 to 6 weeks, thereby reducing your
hoe labor considerably.
Do not use pre-emerge treat
ment on fields heavily infested
with johnson grass, bermuda
grass and nut grass. Use of pre-
emerge chemicals on sandy loan
to clay soils give best results.
Treatment on extremely sandy soil
is not recommended.
Seed Bed Preparation
The seed bed should be firm
with the upper Surface loose and
deep enough to cover seed ade-
quately and uniformally. The seed
bed should be high enough that
the water would drain away from
the drill to the middle. Proper
drainage prevents a concentration
of pre-emergence chemical over
cotton seed.
Planting
1t is cheaper to hill drop your
cotton as you use less seed and
usually get better stand of cot
ton due to all seed being in hills.
You can hill drop your cotton at
any distance from to 20 inches.
We believe that each hill should
be from is to 20 inches apart.
Completely cover the seed at least
IL inch deep. Use of solid packer
wheel is optional in pre-emerging
but a packer wheel should be used
if post-emergence oiling is to fol-
low.
If you are going to cross plow
cotton on 38 to 40 inch centers it
would also be advisable to pre-
emerge your cotton and you
should drill go to 70 pounds of
seed per acre on fields to be cross
plowed. Apply chemical at same
rates and in the same way that
you do for hill dropping.
Replanting After Use of
Pre- Emerging Chemicals
If 1t is necessary to replant cot
fon due to a bad stand. If CIPC is
used on the first planting and the
row is free of weeds you may just
replant without further preparation
OF row. If Karmex or diuron was
used the first time. Where grass
and compactness of the soil makes
planting impractical re-prepare the
'oil and replant.

Materials and Methods
Recommended For Spraying
CIPC on sandy loam and silt
loam soils apply l IA pounds to
2 IL pounds per acre of CIPC ac-
tive ingredients in II inch bands.
This material should be mixed in
approximately II gallons of water
to cover one acre.
On clay loan soils apply "a to 8

water, enough to cover l acre.
Diuron (Karrnex DID The
limit of safe application of these
materials on sandy and silt loan
soils varies from Is to rs pounds
to the acre on band base treat
ment-2 inch bands. Over dosage
is hazardous to cotton. This Is tol
rs pounds per acre should be
mixed in approximately IL gallons
water for each acre. Sandy soils
require the lesser dosage.
Do not pour the concentrate into
