Many beautiful roses are
blooming at this time. As yet
the pests that attack roses have
no started in earnest. It is much
easier to prevent trouble than to
treat it after it has started. The
use of present-day all purpose
dusts and sprays containing com-
binations of fungicides and in-
secticides is the best preventa-
tive measure in controlling these
pests. Sulfur dust will usually
control mildew. Captan 50 and
some others will control black
spot. Spray or dust on a regular
schedule. Apply it as soon as
possible after a rain, or at least
once a week. This prevents in-
fection and infestation and pro-
tects new foliage from becoming
infected. Do not wait until in-
sects or deseases are present and
active before using controls.
Some people have the idea that
if they will apply plenty of fer-
tilizer of some sort the plants
will be so healthy that insects
and diseases will not attack.
Diseases and insects are usually
no repectors of plants.

Very often rose petals will be-
come brown or dark and still
not fall. Buds will become dried
and fail to open. This may be
caused by the insect, thrip.
These are tiny yellow or brown
insects which can hardly be
seen. They eat the blooms and
buds. During their life they fly
to other roses and bury them-
selves in the buds. Applications
of malathion in a dust or spray
every two or three days will
destry man thrips. Ask for your
copy of the new leaflet, "Texas
Guide for Controlling insects on
Ornamental Plants, 1963,'" at my
office.

formal banquet Tuesday night
at 7:00.

fried chicken, potato salad, baked

with good natured chiding of the
men's class. Daniel Boone, teach-
er of the Joy Class, gave a short
rebuttle.
Mrs. Herschall Shuttlesworth

the program. Theme of the party
was "Men," and several enter-

called "Husbands," by Rebecca
Mosley; a slightly confused after-
dinner speech by Mrs. O. D.

led by Mrs. Oliver.
The men's contribution to the
entertainment consisted of a
male quartet by Herbert Ar-
ledge, Herschall Shuttlesworth,
Dan Boone and O. D. Oliver

gin.
Mrs. Billy Phillips cloosed the
program with a short devotional,
using objects from her purse

ings as applied in Christian liv-
ing.
Almost 100% of both class
memberships were present for
the social affair, with a total of
forty-two including guests at-
tending.
