A native of Cherokee County, hhe sad spent most of her mar ried life in Clinton. She was a daughter of the late Larkin A. and Elizabeth Mosely Hall and a member of the Lydia Baptist Church.

Burial was in Rosemont cemetery. Pallbearers were Roy San ders, Furman Brown,. Dorsey Turner, O. C. and Carroll Har ris and Houston ERis. Farmers and cattlemen have been puzzled by this phenomenon for years. The answer to the mystery has been provided by scientists of the United States Department of Agriculture’s Re search Service.

Cabaniss. soned that the lightning playing along the top wire more fre quently than the others, burns off the galvanized coating caus ing more rapid rusting and dete rioration. They noted that the top wires of fences built around 1940 were showing considerable damage by 1905 and were badly rusted by 1963. It was also observed that, as you inspected wires nearer the ground, they were silowing progressively less damage. In fact, the wire nearest the ground was in good condition. Further observation of the trouble immediately suggested a solution. It was also found that the top wire near grounded brace wires was undamaged. Grounding all wires along the fence at regular intervals was suggested as a way to extend the in South Carolina, and, in fact, make the growing of some crops impossible. Tobacco Mosaic, for instance, has considerable economic sig nificance in this state. So has Bean Mosaic, Phony Peach, Strawberry Stunt, and many oth ers—all virus diseases. Nettles says raspberries—a de lightful fruit—might be grown rather extensively in this state were it hot for virus diseases like Red' Raspberry Mosaic, Leaf Curl, and Decline. Viruses also attack watermel ons, di ah lias, squash, tomatoes, and other kinds of plant too numerous to mention. Because viruses are perhaps the sn^Ulest organisms of living matter—too small to be seen with the iiicroscope—the most elaborate laboratories and high ly trained /virologists are needed to study them. But a- beginning has apparent^ ly been made for going into a more intensive study of plant vi- - ruses. Chemical and News magazine reported on Sep tember 13 that a Middle port, N. Y., firm had begun a viricide screening program which is the beginning of a program to de velop contact and systemic viri- cides for plants. At present no anti-virus agri cultural chemicals are commer cially available. 108 N.
