STOP KILLING
YOURSELF
By Dr.. Peter J. Steincrohn

Many people think that
tranquilizers are a cure-all
But sometimes taking these
sedatives are as Intellectual
as throwing a cupful of wa
ter on blazing gasoline. In
treating the nervous patient
it's important that we take
sufficient time to determine
what's really worrying him.
Here, for example. is a short
case history which will give
you an idea Of what l mean:
Dear DR.. Steincrohn: Help!
Let me talk this outl I'm
too ashamed to tell 1t to our
family physician who is a
mutual friend.
My husband and I married
young, too young. Have been
married nine years, He abSo-
lutely refuses to grow up and
mature and act like a daddy
to his children. He is the
silent type and never has a
topic of conversation morn
ing, noon or night. He lives
within his own shell. Now,
you say, was he like that
when l married him? No. He
enjoyed having fun TO some
degree, anyway.
He expects me to be my
self always, and when I give
him the silent treatment he
comes out with. Whats the
matter with you lately?"
That really goes over big
when he hasn't spoken a
word to me for days.
What is left but divorce?
But that would give my
mother a heart attack. How
do I go about living in har-
mony with him? He doesn't
give a darn about anyone
but himself and is insanely
jealous Of me.
His only interest is ball
games. His father is his exact
opposite and would give me
anything in the world, but
I don't know how to get along
with his son. How do you
live with a heartlesS clam?
Mrs. X.
NEXT TO BEING a doctor
I wonder If the most difficult
Job isn't that Of a judge.
How difficult 1t must be to
make a decision: who's right,
the husband or wife2 I can't
possibly take sides in your
case, Mrs. X, and sleep with
a clear conscience.
From way back here, 1t
seems that your prime mis-
take is not having confided
in your own doctor. That's
where the problem has the
best chance of solution. If
he can't find the remedy he
will enlist the necessary help:
a family counselor, priest.
rabbi or minister. If you
have been taking tranquil
izers. I assure you that they

Cotton Insects -
On Thursday of last week
two employees of The boil
weevil station at the College
spent the day here in Holmes
County checking for boil
weevils. l am happy to &c
port we were unable to
find the first boil weeyll in
any of the fields Of cotton
We looked in. Three of US de-
voted practically the entire
day checking fields from
Pickens to Ebenezer. to Lex
ington. to Howard and Tchu-
la areas. We found lots of
other damaging cotton IN
se.cts such as leafhopper, flea
hopper, small worms, boil
worm eggs, lygus bugs and a
large number of beneficial
insects. So from this observa-
ton the boil weevils have not
come in the fields at this
time but may do so parricu-
larlv if we get a little rain.
If you have cotton big
enough to form squares /
would recommend that you
apply an .insecticide even
though there are no boil wea-
wills present in the field. The
fleahopper and other insects
present are enough to justi-
fly an application of an in
secticide to prevent these in d.
sects from knocking off small
pin point squares.
I believe I would stay with
an insecticide that is long
lasting such as endrin, diel-
dren. toxaphene plus DOT.
SEWN or guthion. I believe
WE should keep the phos-
phate poisons off our cotton
as long as we do not have
anv boil weevils present.
Guthion is the only phos-
phate poison mentioned a.
bove in the insecticides. After
our cotton starts souaring we
would recommend you poison
at weekly intervals for at
least four applications.

Cotton -
On Friday of last week l
spent the entire afternoon at
the Delta Branch Experiment
Station at Stoneville study
ing the results OF chemical
weed control conducted at
the station. We came to the
conclusion that under the
drought stressed condition
We have in fields at present
oiling was the only material
that was killing the drought
stressed grass, So from our
observation it appears tina.
diuron with surfactant and
DSMA with surfactant will
not kill established drought
stressed grasses. However,
very young grass, before it
goes into drought stressed
condition, can be killed with
diuron plus surfactant or
DSMA plus surfactant.
If we should happen to
have a rain and start a new
growth of grass then your APP
plication of diuron plus sur
factant should control most
all grasses up to two inches
in height. Your cotton should
be at least six inches tall be-
fore applying diuron plus
surfactant. After YOUR cotton
is three inches tail you can
apply DSMA plus slrfactant
as a directive Spray and
should obtain desired results
on actively GROWING grasses.
Be sure and follow the direc-
tions for applying either of
these materials.
