ed.Wouldn’t it be nice if all of
us could get out of them ? There
wouldn’t be so much work for us
or the teachers.
I think some of the junors and
others who have a class in the

woodpeckers rather than peo
pie. If you don’t understand you
should come up and take a few

We appreciate Leon McDaniel
bringing several daily papers for

The fifth grade had an honored
guest Monday. Miss Annie Peavy
from Japan. She told us about
the schools and some Japanese cus¬
toms. Miss Peavy gave us all a
Japanese ball. This is a very at¬
tractive colored paper which looks
like a bowl until it is blown up.
These are batted around with the

fun as baseball or basketball. Our

8wan Tells Of
Cutworm Control
County Agent R. P. Swan said
this week that he is receiving nu¬
merous reports from farmers and
gardeners that cut worms are ac¬
tive this year, cutting off newly
transplanted plants of tomato, pep¬
per, eggplant, cabbage and many
others.
Mr. Swan continued that the
pest also will cut off such seed¬
ed crops as corn and beans.
He said a simple method of keep
ing these pests from cutting off
your plants is to put a small col
lar of manilla paper around the
base of each plant so that it
tends an inch into the ground and
an inch or more above the ground.
The agent said ur. C. R. Jor¬
dan, entomologist for the Univers¬
ity of Georgia Agricultural Exten¬
sion Service, recommends the use
of 10 percent DDT or 20 percent
Toxaphene. Either of these can
~-e dusked on the surface of the
-oil around each plant.
It was pointed out that a pois
ned bran mash is also very ef¬
fective in the control of cutworms.
