Vegetable Plants
Need Protection
From Insect Damage

Improve yields and quality of
your vegetable crops this year by
starting an insect control program
before the damage is done" says
Ted Bissell, University of Mary
land Extension entomologist.
IF something undesirable is
destroyed in the early stages, you
won't have trouble with it later.
This is the theory applied to con-
troll of many vegetable crop in
sects."
Striped cucumber beetles for eX-
ample, appear from Information as
soon as cucumber, cantaloupe and
watermelon plants start growing.
They chew on the leaves and lay
their eggs in the surface soil dur
ing this early growing period.
The beetles not only damage the
little plants but spread bacterial
wilt by their feeding, so it is i'm
portant to stop them early The
larvae which hatch from the eggs,
feed on the roots and cause a gen.
eral unthriftiness.
The treatment recommended by
L. P. Ditman and T. L. Bissell in
Miscellaneous Extension Publica-
ton Sd is spray application of
SEWN when plants first show.
The larvae of the European corn
borer hibernate in corn stalks so
early destruction of stalks by plow-
ing is emphasized.
The adults of the first genera
ton emerge in May and early June
and lay eggs on plants such as
potato When the young larvae
hatch on potato plants they burrow
into the stem tissue. making con-
troll difficult.
The insecticide should be applied
before eggs hatch. DOT is recon-
mended at l pound actual per acre.
ThiOdan is also effective. Although
it is more expensive it has adj
vantageS over DOT because it is
effective on other potato pests
such as leafhoppers, aphids. potato
beetles and flea beetles The
recommended dosage for Thiodan
for potatoes is pts. per acre of
? lbs gal emulsifiable concentrate
DOT is recommended for early
sweet corn.
The second generation of the
corn borer is concentrated on
corn, field and sweet, but peppers,
elephants and other vegetables
also may be attacked.
The late second generation and
third generation adults lay eggs
on peppers, egg plants, beans and
ornamentals such as dahlias and a
number of weeds. The recommend
ed treatment for market corn is
DOT $50 emulsifiable concentrate
at qts. per acre and for process

Snow Removal
Plan Called
Successful

The snow removal plan OF
the Town of Smyrna worked
we'll last Friday, and as re-
suit of the cooperation of the
residents, the town crews were
able to have all the towns
streets clear by 7 a. m. The
plan calls for the removal of
parked cars from certain streets
after a snow of an hours dura-
ton. On Friday night, accord
ing to town manager Rex D.
Gilmore, it was decided to hold
off the blowing until after the
stores closed and at 10 p. m.
the new public address system
was used to advise residents
that the plan would be put into
effect. The men worked around
the clock. 1t was the first time
this year that the plan was put
into effect, and it was neces-
sary to issue only four sum-
mons for removal of cars from
the designated streets. After
the snow on Tuesday night the
residents cooperated again by
moving their cars so that the
streets could be cleared by the
town crews.

Former CAP Cadet, Stephen Hankins,
Tells Squadron of AT Training

Airman Second Class Steph-
en- Fisher Hankins, USAF, ad-
dressed the Smyrna Cadet Squa-
dron, Civil Air Patrol, at their
February 6 meeting in Smyrna
High School. Airman Hankins,
who is home on "a days of
leave, told the cadets that he
had learned a great deal in the
field of Electronics since he en-
listed in the Air Force on May
is, 1861, for A years. Il like
it." he said in describing his
training at Keesler AT Base,
near Biloxi, Mississippi, known
as the "Electronics Center of the
Air Force" He came home di-
rectly from Keesler, which has
been his station of duty since
June "a, 1861. Airman Hankins
stated that his experience as a
Cadet in Civil Air Patrol had
been of great assistance to him
in the Air Force. High light of
his Cadet training was the Jet
Orientation Course for 10 days
in July, 1859, at Perrin AT Base,
Texas, where he navigated and
actually flew as pilot T33 jets.
Our Air Force pilots at Per-
rim AT Base were all instruc-
tor pilots. They knew their
business. They were tops" Air
man Hankins said. Airman
Hankins will report on the first
of March at Cannon AT Base,
New Mexico, where he will be
assigned to the Sand Air Divi-
sion. That will start his field
duty, where he will use the Elec-
tronics training the Air Force
has given him. "Just schooling.

A Methodist minister, who

Alaska, will speak at Ewells-
st. Paul Methodist Church, Clay

ruary 10th, at 7:30 p. m. The
Rev. Harold w. Diehl is now

erwise the shortcomings might
show up in 10th or llth grade.
Smyrna hopes to offer either
Latin or a foreign language also
to 7th and 9th grade pupils.
This must be done under COM
petent teachers who are good
in their fields. Such a teacher
generally wants to specialize in
this language. In a small school
(where there is only one or
two sections of a class) the
teacher must take a number of
different ssignm m nts. Both
Clayton and Smyrna would be
strengthened by placing all 7th
and 9Th grade pupils in one
school and offering a greater
variety of work.
Are there other advantages in
grades z and 8? What about
tne elementary pupils!
In a consolidated program all
junior high school pupils could
take industrial arts (Which in
cludes some work in mechani-
cal drawing) and home econom-
les. The resources of the High
School Library (about 5000 vol
umes) would be available to
these pupils. Smyrna also op-
crates a summer school program
in reading and other subjects.
Elementary pupils in Smyr-
ma now have art, music, and
remedial reading taught by spec
ial teachers. The elementary
school also operates a summer
school program for those inter-
ested. One of the outstanding
features of the Smyrna program
