RAPID GROWTH NEEDED

Earliness, appearance and quality
are the factors thst must be consider
especially by the gardner and truck
farmer acco riding to Prof. Ell, Worth
en-, of the Pennsylvania State College
School of Agriculture. The system of
cropping is intensive and the returns
Justify expensive soil treatment.
Professor Worthen explains that the
soil must be SO treated that it con-
tains in available form, at all times
during the growing season, the right
amount of plant food to produce rap
id growth; for this is the one essen
tial in the production of early vegeta-
bles of high quality. For the home
garden the soil should receive liberal
fertilization, irrespective of its com
position. This fertilization should
supply, for the various vegetables,
plant food for maxium yields of first

Street Improvement
And Payment of Indebtedness

Anu dy1nenJ vi lHucuCcuhCSS.
Elsewhere in these columns we print
the Bill introduced in the Legislature
which seeks to give authority to the
town to raise $4,000. on a bond iss-
ue for the purpose of IMPROVING
ALL THE STREETS OF THE
TOWN at once, with macadam prop
erly oiled, etc, which is designed to
save the expense of the annual little
patching here and there and as rule
amounting to little or nothing i'll the
way of permanent improvement.
If this plan is adopted it will i'm
prove all the streets and as the State
will improve that portion which it
occupies in the town, this amount
sought to be raised by bond issue
will do all the balance and the result
will be our streets will all improve in
such way that all the property in
the town will receive the benefit of
this improvement.
This bond issue, as proposed, will be
voted upon by the qualified voters SO
that it cannot become operative until
submitted to them.
1t provides for tax to pay the in
terest and provide a sinking fund suf-
fcient to redeem them within twenty
years with the right to redeem at any
time after 5 years.
To some this may seem like rails
ing the taxes too high as it provides
that the town shall have the right to
levy up to 80 cents on the $4,000.
Let Us look at what this means.
In the first place the Electric light
plant is not producing sufficient rev,
enuc to pay the expenses, and provide
a sinking fund sufficient to redeem
the bonds at maturity and the result
that either the debt will not be
paid at maturity or the streets will be
left to get in u very bad condition:
this extra 20 cents on the S1OO.O0
will take care of this permanent
street improvement and for some
years to come it will not take but lit
tie of the general fund raised from
taxation to repair the streets the little
that they may need and the net re-
suit of this will pc thst We will have
quite little sum to pay on the Elec-
trio Light Bonds. These bonds will
not otherwise to be paid off unless
some such action is taken and we
might as well face the situation first
as last that we have got to increase
the taxes, 50 having this to do, let US
take the method that will get us
something in return for the money
spent.
We hear considerable complaint
about the manner in which the Elec-
trio Light plant is run (not rum we
agree that there is room for quite
bit of improvement. the citizens of
the town should take sufficient inter
est to see to it that men interested in
the town, is elected and when elec-
ted let us stand back of them in the
Improvements that should be made.
We take the responsibility of hav-
ing the Bill framed as published; we
disclaim any selfish motives back of
it and we assert that we have no
FAKE to grind. We believe that
this is a solution of very grave situa
tion confronting our town in the
near future unless some similar relief
is forthcoming; but those who live in
the town and who have vote have
an opportunity to decide, SO in the
meantime while we await this oppor-
tunity let the matter be discussed.
We will gladly publish any articles
that may be written us on the sub
ject.
