Larry says, “It’s more than a
display of 816 paint colors
usually found in paint depart-
ments in the past. The new
Tru-Test Custom Color System
is actually a modern version of
the decorator’s color wheel
arranged in rows instead of in a
circle.”
As a result, this is a boon for
the decorator who isn’t a decor-
ator. Anyone can find ready-
made answers as to which
colors can tastefully be used
together to create those high-
fashion color schemes that dec-
orators use.
As Boubel says, “It’s a great
help for women who want to
correctly color coordinate their
rooms with complete confi-
dence”.
The Tru-Test Color System
for which a patent is pending,
was created exclusively for
True Value Hardware Stores
by Bonnie Blaire, their own
color consultant. It was recent-
ly awarded "Outstanding Mer-
chandising Achievement” by
the Point-Of-Purchase Adver-
tising Institute of New York.

Root knot nematodes are the
single most important home
garden disease in Coleman
County. We would estimate
that at least 50 percent of the
gardens in this area are damag-
ed by root knot.
One problem with control-
ling this pest is that it’s hard to
detect the problem early
enough for gardeners to take
protective measures. Once ne-
matodes are found on plant
roots, little can be done to save
that year’s crop.
So, it’s important to inspect
the roots of plants for galls as
you remove them from the
garden in the fall. These galls
or knots on roots indicate the
presence of root knot nema-
todes and this is the time to
take effective steps to control
the pests. Another symptom of
root knot is stunted, yellow
plants. Examine the roots of
such plants for galls.
As soon as root knot nema-
todes are found in the garden,
immediately remove all diseas-
ed plants. Get as much of the
root system as possible because
it is in these roots that the
nematode will carry over in the
egg stage to the next crop. Root
tissue around the eggs will
protect them from chemical
treatment and drying.
Once plant roots have been
removed, till or spade the area
as deep as possible. This breaks
up remaining roots so they will
decay faster and dries the soil
to reduce the number of young
nematodes (larvae) in the soil.
If nematodes are detected in
the spring garden, continue
spading at 2-3 week intervals
until fall planting time. This
continual tilling of the garden
will reduce the namatode popu-
lation even further.
In that portion of the garden
not being used for winter
vegetables or for those of you
who do not want to plant a fall
or winter garden, plant the
garden to rye (cereal) in mid-
September. Water the garden
regularly to get, maximum fall
growth for the small grain.
Rye will act as a control for
nematodes. Many of those en-
tering the roots will not be able
to undergo complete develop-
ment and will be killed. When
the rye is spaded or tilled under
at tne end of the season, it
decays and produces an organic
acid toxic to nematodes.
In addition, rye serves as a
source of organic material en-
couraging the growth of fungi
which feed on nematodes. Rye
should be turned under as soon
as possible after Jan. 1. This
will allow some time (or plant
decay before spring planting.
When soil temperature
reaches 50 degrees F for seven
days at a depth of 6 inches,
treat the area with Vapam
fungicide using 1 qt. per 100 sq.
ft. Water the chemical into the
soil using 1 Inch of water at the
time of treatment. Re-water in
24 hours, using an additional 1
inch of water and repeat in 48
hours.
Vapam is water soluable and
will be leeched down into the
soil with irrigation, It is import-
ant that the chemical be moved
as deep in the soil as possible to
get maximum control. There
may be some of you fti the
county whose soil is such that 1
inch of water cannot be applied
before run-off occurs. In these
areas, apply water until run-off
begins and then repeat at 24
and 48 hours after treatment.
This method of treatment
takes care of the entire area
compared to row application
where only a 12-inch band is
treated. After treatment, leave
the area undisturbed for seven
days. Then till the soil to get
the chemical out. Wait an
additional two weeks before
planting.
Additional steps can be taken
at planting to further insure
nematode control. In those
areas where root knot is found
to be most severe in summer or
fall, plant onions, garlic or
sweet corn. These crops are not
susceptible to root knot, and
their use will further reduce
the nematode population.
Also, it should be standard
practice..to.. plant nematode
resistant varieties when avail-
able. Following is a list of
nematode resistant varieties
that have done well in this
county: Crop - Tomatoes; Root
Knot Nematode Resistant - Big
Set, Better Boy, Terrific,
Bonus, Small Fry (cherry type).
Crop - Southern Peas; Root
Knot Nematode Resistant -
Mississippi Silver (cream).
Crop-Sweet Potatoes; Root
Knot Nematode Resistant
Jewell, Centennial.
Gardeners who find that they
are able to follow only one or
two of the above mentioned
practices because of planting or
economic restrictions will have
less success in controlling ne-
matodes. Once nematodes are
found in a garden, the control
program as outlined above
must be followed annually.
Based on current knowledge, it
is impossible to completely
eliminate nematodes from a
garden. But a sound control
program will keep the popula-
tion at a manageable level.
