A. often enough to keep barely
moist throughout the vessel contain
ing them. Frequency would depend
on the temperature where kept. The
colder the weather or the lower the
temperature of the plants location,
the less water will be required. There

Is from acid soils. Soluble iron and

Since the elections are over the
public and especially the farmer may
have time to consider the strong
propaganda being put forward to in
crease parcel post rates. 1t is easy
to imagine who is behind the move
ment and who In the past and are
now burdening the consuming public
with high transportation charges.
The plan is to impose straight
3-cent increase on all parcel post
packages. no matter what size Few
of us realize what this means as an
added burden for mere existence. 1t
is true that for the resent fiscal year
deficit of s60,0oo.o00 is forecasted
in the post office revenues, but this
is nearly s100,600,000 less than the
last fiscal year showed. Parcel post
and rural free delivery have done
more than any other one thing to
prevent the exodus of the people from
the country to cities. What Is to be-
come OF the back to the farm move
ment if we are going to do something
that will add to the miseries of the
farmer? 1t is certainly to be hoped
that no such legislation will become
a law but it's up to the general public
to say to their Representatives what
they want.
