at third. In the second, Ellis got his
homer, solid smash over the fence.
In the third Mcdonald was passed. SUM

inning of the game, but Morrison was

sixth. In that inning Gleason led off

Banks Help Out In Club Work

Splendid cooperation has been
shown by the banks in New Jersey
both in donating prizes and in lending
for pig, calf, poultry, and other clubs
of the state.
AS soon as the club idea has been
explained to them, they are willing to
cooperate. Some of the banks which
are donating prizes and lending money
are, First National Bank, Ocean City,
n. j.; Farmers and Mechanics Nat
ional Bank, Bridgeton, N. j.; Ocean
County Trust Co., Toms River, N. j.;
The Mechanics National Bank, Tren-
ton, n. j.; First National Bank, Bel
videre, N. j.; and Newton Trust Com
pany, Newton, n. j.
An example of this cooperation is
that of the Mechanics National Bank
in Trenton which has for some years
been giving approximately $500 in
prizes to boys and girls who engage
in junior project work or the farm OF
in the kitchen. This is in addition .to
lending several dollars each year to
energetic boys and girls who are anX-
ious TO engage in a little business OF
their own on the farms.

Test Your Soil

Make a ball of moist soil and break
it in two; insert a strip of blue litmus
paper, which can be purchased at a
drug store, and press together firmly.
After five or ten minutes, open the
ball and examine the paper. If it has
changed from blue to pink or red, the
soil is acid and needs an application of
lime. If the soil is moderately dry, the
change of color may appear only in
spots, and greater pressure and more
time may be required. The rapidity of
change and intensity of color develop
ed indicate to some extent the relative
degree of acidity. 1t is best to test the
subsoil as we'll as the surface soil, for
if the subsoil is strongly acid then the
capillary moisture, which rises in time
of drought, will tend to carry increased
acidity to the surface, whereas if the
subsoil contains lime, the rising moist
ure will tend to neutralize the surface
acidity and this may even save the life
of such plants as clover during a criti-
cal period.
AS many of the garden crops require
a neutral or alkaline soil, family gard
eners should make a litmus test of
their soils. If found to be acid an appli-
cation of lime will be very beneficial
to the yields.

Medals For Loan Workers

Much enthusiasm is being displayed
by the women of New Jersey who are
to take part in the Victory Loan Drive.
Miss Anne Macllvaine, State Chair
man for the Third Federal Reserve
District, announces that a bronze med
al made from captured German cannon
will be given to every woman worker
in the Victory Loan. These medals will
be given only workers in this loan and
only to workers who are duly author
lied by the chairman and heads of
committees. Care will be taken that
these medals will go only to women
who are activity working to put the
Victory Loan over the top. 1t is recog-
nized that the work in the Liberty
Loan drives is strenuous and a great
tax upon the time and physical strenth
of the women so it is fitting that in
this last drive the government should
award a medal to the patriotic and de-
voted service of the women of the
nation.
1t is expected that the women who
have worked in former loans will take
part in this loan.
However, it must be clearly understood
that YORK IN former loans Will not win
a medal. The medal will be awarded
only to those who work in the Victory
Loan.
Generations to come these medals
will speak for the patriotic women who
served their country during the great
a
Plans are being perfected for a con-
ference of the women workers of the
Third Federal Reserve District of New
Jersey and Delaware at the Bellevue
Stratford, Philadelphia.
In addition to the above conference
there will be a New Jerey Conference
for New Jersey women at Atlantic
City about the first week in April.
Miss MacIlvaine will announce the
details of this meeting as soon as they
are arranged. The Atlantic City meet
ing will be a get together meeting for
the women of New Jersey of the Third
Federal Reserve District. 1t is hoped
that every woman worker in New
Jersey will be able to attend.

Want Sturgeon Restored

Senator Collins B. Allen, of Salem
county, introduced and the Senate has
passed a bill to stop fishing for stur-
geon on the Delaware river and bay
for three years. A similar bill has
been passed by the Pennsylvania legis-
lature with the hopes of restoring a
greater number of sturgeon to be
caught after that date.
Some years ago New Jersey and
Pennsylvania passed a law stopping
sturgeon fishing after July l, which
allowed the roe sturgeon to go up the
river and spawn, but Delaware had a
few fishermen who wanted to loaf on
the river all summer. Delaware men
caught fish and Jerseymen could not,
so the law was repealed. AS a con-
sequence the big fish which laid the
golden eggs have nearly all been
killed.
The bills passed by the legislatures
of New Jersey and Pennsylvania are
designed to restore profitable fishing.
1t cannot be done unless Delaware does
likewise.
