Duren Bell tells
Rotary Club:
'Read the label'
By Jj JOHNSON
Times-Journal Editor
Houston County Extension
Director Duren Bell says the most
important things users of pes
ticides can do are reading the label
and following the directions.
Speaking to members of the
Perry Rotary Club March 20, Bell
said failure to follow instructions
causes accidents and can lead to
environmental damage.
Reviewing the information
included on the labels of pesticides,
Bell said it was particularly
important to follow the instruc
tions concerning the quantity of the
chemical applied.
“It’s not like a little is good so a
lot will be better,” Bell said. He
cautioned users not to use the
“glug, glug” method of mixing, but
rather, to follow instructions
carefully.
Most homeowners use non
restricted pesticides, Bell said.
Restricted pesticides require com
pletion of a course concerning
pesticide safety.
Chamber to coordinate
community calendar
By Jj JOHNSON
Times-Journal Editor
The Perry Area Chamber of
Commerce, responding to requests
from members, has decided to
coordinate a community calendar.
According to Peggie Williams,
president of the chamber, the
calendar will be kept at the chamber
office at 1105 Washington St.
Portions of it will be published
periodically in the Times-Journal to
inform residents of upcoming
events.
Board of Directors member Paul
Hicks said he hoped the calendar
would help eliminate some of the
competing activities which take
place in the community.
“This can help with long-term
planning for events,” Hicks said.
Persons wishing to either
consult the calendar or add items to
the calendar can contact the chamber
at 987-1234.
The decision to develop the
calendar came March 16 during the
monthly meeting of the chamber

He also urged the Rotarians to
become familiar with how to
dispose of the chemicals and the
containers in which they were
shipped. Houston County has a
chemical recycling program to help
reuse pesticide containers.
