THERE'S X DIFFERENC E IN RAINCOATS. TOO Most raincoats are labeled either "waterproof" or "water repellent ” There's a difference. A waterproof matenal is coated with a finish which prevents wa ter from going through. Air can not penetrate. Perspiration does not evaporate easily. The water-repellent label on a raincoat means that the fabric was treated to keep water from going through. Air is allowed to \ circulate and moistuie evaporate I easily. Check to sec if the watcr-repel lertt finish is marked “durable" or "permanent"—otherwise you may need to have your raincoat treat ed when it is washed or dry cleaned. S. L. Davenport.

Black Light 'Leap Catches Leaf Moths Before Laying

According to farmers who use them, the Gardner LI-30 Black Light Trap eliminates tobacco horn worms and bud worms by trapping the female moths before they deposit theii eggs. 1j C Stables. Jr., rural englneei for Vepco, said. The principle involved is the old story of the moth and the flame. Through a long series of elimination checks using every light source uvatlable and even developing new lights, research engineers have provad that the black light fluorescent tube is the most attractive medium yet <le voised to trap night flying insects., particularly the tobacco hook worm and bud worm moth. The trap consist of a baffle board painted green tliut reflects the light from the fluorescent tube below the baftle. Moths are attracted to the light and when : they hit or light on the board they then dive down to the light and into a mesh bag where they are caught. The Dailies around the top of the bag prevent the moths from escaping When this Gardner LT-30 Black Light Trap is placed at. the i proper elevation and location so j that it may be seen from every spot in the tobacco held, the to bacco moths are so strongly at tracted that they fl\ to the trap ; and are caught before they lay

their eggs. The operating cost is about the same as a CO watt light bulb The trap can oc placed on a pole at the desired height and No. 14 wire can be used Vo carry electricity for over 1000 feet to rtn* desired location Two years ot intensive research on trap design have been con ducted at various . xperimental stations including the North Car olina Tobacco Experiment Station at Oxford. N C , with federal and .late specialists collaborating in this work. The Appalachian Elec tric Power Company, Carolina Power and Light Company, Duke Power Company, and Georgia Power and Light Company have aided in proving the practical ap plication of these traps, which are in operation from Macon. Ga.. |south to tile Florida line: diagon ally through South Carolina and North Carolina, and in Franklin • County. Va. Farmers in Franklin county who use these traps say they do not use poison spray or dust, they oo not pick worms, and they be lieve that "if everybody would use traps we would do away with the flies in a few years. If farmers desire any further information they should contact their county agent or rural repre sentative ^with their power sup plier.

We have 33 acres of ladino orchard grass we use with the sheep and about 25 head of eat 1 tie. rotating the sheep fron. one field to another about once a month. About the first of July we turn them into a new field witli the ram. "The ewes are turned on rye pasture as soon as the grass is gone and stay out until the first lamb drops.
