County Agent Reports
Crop Damage Cause
By M. 11. PURCELL
County Agent
CICADAS
Periodical cicadas have been
appearing in some parts of
Georgia. This insect is common
ly called the 17 or 13 year locust..
Dime-size holes in the earth are
a sign that the insect is around. ;
The insects emerge from the I
ground after about 13 years. ।
When cicadas are out, their I
singing can be heard from |
morning to night.
No visible feeding damage to
plants and trees is caused by,
cicadas, but twigs of trees and I
vines may be damaged where the i
female slashes them to lay her ,
eggs. Control measures are sel
dom necessary. However, if a
large number emerge in certain
areas, small trees or bushes re- |
cently transplanted may need I
protection. Plants can be pro- .
tected by covering them with a
cloth of applying an insecticide
when egg laying of the insect
begins. Sevin, a new insecticide,
as a spray containing 2 pounds
of 50 percent wettable powder |
ner 100 gallons of water is effec-1
tive against the insect.

Black Turpentine Beetle
Home and land owners are |
warned to be on the lookout for
infestations of the black turpen
tine beetle. Damage from this
beetle has already been reported
from a number of areas since
the weather warmed up.
Turpentine beetles will attack
all species of pines grown in ।
Georgia. They are much more |
likely to attack trees that have ;
been weakened by drought, fire, I
or mechanical injury.
The first evidence of a beetle
attack are pitch tubes at the
lower portion of the tree trunk,
usually about two or three feet
above the ground.
Builders of new homes espe
cially should be on the guard
against the turpentine beetle.
When homes are built, roots of
trees are often cut and injured
by heavy machinery. This dam- 1 '
age often brings attacks by the
beetles.
I Valuable pines should be pro
tected from the machinery by a
temporary fence around. A one
percent solution of BHC sprayed
J on the trees will protect against
I beetle attack.
For further information ask
your county agent for Extension
Circular 404, “The Black Tur
pentine Beetle and Its Control.”

npedles. These diseases are more
with registration Monday after
noon, June 8, and continues
through Friday evening, June 12.
Dr. J. Winston Pearce, pastor,
First Baptist Church, DeLand
Florida, will be the featured

President of the Training
Union Convention, and presiding
officer for the assembly will be
Rev. J. Thornton Williams, pas
tor of the LaGrange First Bap
tist Church. Williams is sched
uled to retire as president this
i year, and election of a new pres
: ident will be a feature of the as-
I sembly.
Other speakers at the assem

I son, Atlanta, Executive Secre-;
i tary-Treasurer of the Georgia

: Howard P. Giddens, Athens,
i president of the Georgia Baptist

First Baptist Church in Athens.
Spray or dust garden plants
j with a multi-purpose pesticide
। to be sure all new foliage is pro
, tected from pests. The May issue
of Better Homes & Gardens
|maga zi n e suggests repeating
I weekly, and soon after each
heavy rain. Spray or dust less
often during the summer when
plant growth slows down.

corrected by placing the fer
tilizer correctly. This is espe
cially so when high rates of
high - analysis fertilizers are
used.
Fertilizer should be placed two
inches to one side and two
inches below the seed to prevent
injury. Some poor stands which
seemed at first to be caused by
fertilizer injury actually resulted
from nematodes, fungi or in

Huie! Announces
“For the third straight month
Georgia’s non-farm employment
has exceeded comparable periods
in State history,” Georgia Com
missioner of Labor Ben T, Huiet
revealed in a report released
here today. “Georgia non-farm
wage earners totaled 984,200
during April, the highest April
on record. This total is almost
34,000 over April 1958 and is
16,000 over the previous April
record set in 1957.”
Commissioner Huiet reported
that the April total topped
March by 7.000 workers and that
the trend is expected to continue
upward through June.

portant factor in the continued
upward course in non-farm em
ployment, with some seasonal
increase in retail trade and out
door amusement jobs,” the La
bor Commissioner stated.
“If the present trend con
tinues, it is entirely possible
that the total number of non
farm workers will reach the mil
lion mark this year.
“Certainly Georgia markets
and productive capacity can
justify and support such a rec
ord. We will reach the one mil
lion mark if Georgia employers
maintain their confidence and
Georgia workers continue to give
a fair day's work for a fair day’s
pay,” Commissioner Huiet con
cluded.
