i h OF I IN PEARS WOMAN HURT IN Some blight has been found In green pear fruits, according to C. B. Cordy, assistant county gent. This type of blight con stitutes a great hazard and could cause considerable loss, the agent said. He suggested that in or chards where a scattering of blight Is present, a thorough ex amination be made for such blighted pears. ' If any are found, an effort should be made to eliminate every piece of blight and blighted pear. In the orchards observed num erous blighted pears were pre sent on each tree, Cordy de clared. They were scattered over the tree in a pattern sug gesting that they were infected by a sucking Insect. If such Is the ease, a small population of the particular bugs could cause great loss, it was stated. Mrs. Millie Pettigrew, Browns boro, was injured Sunday after noon when a mowing machine nearly severed one of her feet, it was learned today. According to reports, she was standing in front of the mower on her Brownsboro ranch when a neigh bor, who was operating' the ma chine, accidentally started it up, cutting the foot near the ankle. Several finger tips ,of her right hand also were severed, the re port stated. Friends said Mrs. Pettigrew !s resting comfortably this morn ing and that it is expected the foot will be saved.
