tropical areas. These unwelcome Wis
itors deposit billions of egg clusters
on cotton plants. Hungry leafworms
soon emerge to virtually eat their way
across most of the cotton belt.
Their collective appetites are fan
tastic. Leafworms can strip cotton
plants so badly that fields may appear
to have been scorched by fire. The
worms themselves are discriminating;
they eat only cotton plants.
First signs of cotton damage may
be tiny worms eating beneath the
leaves. Larger worms in mass attacks
often devour leaves completely, and
eat into squares, bolls and bark. On
ragged plants brown pupae are often
found attached by silken threads to
stems and leaf ribs.
Growers have found that early con-
troll is most economical. Young, ten
der worms are more easily killed and
population buildups are prevented.
A new inSecticide was widely
adopted for leafworm control during
1860. This new material, called SEWN,
is a carbamate. 1t introduces an en-
tirely new and Safer-to-uSe chemical
to the cotton pesticide field. Growers
have used SEWN in both dust and
spray Foundations for long-lasting
protection against leafworm attacks.

FARM INCOME

Mississippi farm cash income
for 1861 could exceed that for
1860 because of larger acreages
in cotton, soybeans, wheat and
rice, and heavier marketings Of
broilers, eggs and meat. Cotton
still leads all other farm enter
prises in Mississippi as d source
of cash income. Biggest gam In
farm cash income at midyear is
from the larger sales of eggs,
oroIlers and milk. Weather,
however, will be the big deter
mining factor in the final out
come of the 1861 harvest and
eaSn returns.

Your skin can get older than

Appeal Fails
In Dope Case

The United States Court Of
Appeals has affirmed the mar
cotics conviction of a youth
who claimed the trial Judge
erred in rejecting his request
for court inspection of grand
Jury records.
The point was raised by Will

block Of Fifth street NV, who
was convicted on two narcotics
charges and given a five-year
sentence by District Court
Judge Edward M. Curran.
jackson, according to yester-
days appellate opinion, was
arrested after a detective who
knew him saw the suspect drop
a package on the sidewalk. The
package was found to contain
40 capsules Of heroin.
Detective Questioned
At the trial, the youths law
yer asked the detective whether
he had told the lawyer prior to
trial that he only saw the sus-
pect make a pitching motion"
and had not seen him drop the
narcotics. The detective denied
saying this.
The lawyer. who asked no
further questions along this
line, then asked the court to
examine privately the grand
jury testimony of the arresting
officer for possible inconsistent
cies. The request was denied.
Circuit Court Judge Walter
M. Bastian. who wrote yester-
days opinion, said the record
Of Jackson's trial contained
mot the slightest ground" for
belief there had been incon-
sistencies in the testimony be-
fore the grand jury. The Judge
noted the detective was not
asked about any appearances
before the grand Jury.
The opinion upholding Judge
CurTan's ruling said no need
had been shown for the pro-
duction of the grand jury pro-
ceedings, usually kept secret
unless the Government or court
decides to open them
Counsel Criticized
In a concurring opinion,
Judge Warren E. Burger criti-
cized the defense lawyer for
failing to follow up his question
of the detective. The Judge
said he assumed the question
had been a "thoughtless shot
in the dark" resulting from the
lawyers lack of experience.
Counsel asking such uues-
tions with no intention of fol-
lowing them up if the answers
were negative would subject to
severe censure," the Judge said.
