Alfalfa WeeviI Control
Recommendations Given

Alfalfa growers have the choice
of two insecticides for fall appli-
cation in 1861 to control alfalfa
neutrality-suspicious. or dieldrin. The
Pcsticides Regulations Branch of
the USDA after evaluating re-
search results from several states
has authorized a label extending
the use of hcptachlor to all east
ern states. Alfalfa plots at the Uni
versity of Maryland Forage Re-
search Farm, GAINESVILLE, treated
i'll the fall of 1860 with both hcpta-
chlor and dieldrin, showed a very
high degree of freedom from wee
vii damage this spring. Many farm
crS in Maryland used dicldrin at
the same time with good results,
says Ted l.. Bissell, Extension En-
tomologist, University of Mary
land
lie believes that where an in
sccticidc is used at the proper
rates and times, there will be no
trouble from rcSiducs on alfalfa

is important to stay within the
limitations. By doing so, farmers
will protect their markets and the
health of the public Mr. Bissell

Seek Guard Rail
On Section of Road
Near Southern High

Plans to appear before the Gar
ret County Commissioners to eX-
plain the need for placing guard
rails along the recently constructed
road between High Street and
bennett Road, was the principal
item discussed at the first EXccu-
tive Meeting of the Southern High
School TT. A. this past Monday
evening.
Robert Woc,crs, president, said
This road is extremely hazard
Gus in the winter time when drift
ing and plowcd snow makes it diff
ficult for anyone using it to de-
terminc exactly where the travelled
portion Of the road is, and more
important. where the banks are
where a bus, truck, or automobile
could very easily get too far TO
either edge and run off the side
of the road and possibly turn over,
with the prospect of injuring many
people. Approximately one thou
sand pupils are transported over
this road each day 1t is important
that action be taken as soon as
possible"
Other matters discussed at the
meeting included plans for the
second annual talent show which
is to be held in mid-November
The first annual Talent Show was
held just this past spring. How
ever. because there are so many
other activities and similar shows
held each spring, plans were made
to make this project an annual
autumn event in the future. Pro-
ceeds from this show go towards
teacher education scholarship
fund. Stephanic Jordan, 1861
graduate, who is presently attend
ing FrOstburg State Teachers Col
lege, was the first recipient of the
local PIT A. award.
Suggestions for members of the
various committees and plans for
the coming year occupied the re-
naming time of the meeting.
The next executive committee
meeting will be held on October
at 800 at Southern High School.
The first meeting of the PIT A.
will feature the annual Back to
School night on October 16.

Expect Lake Fishing
To Remain Excellent

Now that September is here,
Deep Creek Lake will be more of
a fishcrman's paradise than ever:
not much boat traffic or water ski

anglers have neglected to report
their big catches to the rcgistra-
ton stations.
Smallmouth Bass, Wallcye and
Northern Pike were the big catches
this past week with perch and
pickerel making some nice show

Ivelop In early 1862 can be met
by purchases from abroad, the
officials feel. So far, China has
bought five million tons Of
grain. and is reported ready to
buy more.
The diet OF the average
Chinese peasant probably will
remain at the subsistence level,
but no famine seems likely.
East Germany - once the
hreadbasket of Germany - has
had shortages Of potatoes and
animal products this year, but
the shortages are not consid-
cred severe enough to disrupt
the economy, officials say.
The continuing exodus of
East Germans to the West is
due not to the shortages, but
to the tense political atmos-
iphere. they believe.
Poland. Bulgaria, Hungary,
and Romania all seem to be
having good years, the officials
report. And in Asia, North Wet
Nam and North Korea probably
will harvest enough to meet
their needs.
