Lettuce grows better In a slightly
acid soil than in a lined soil. In
fact, it does very much better in
very acid soil provided the soil
salts, (nitrates etc., are present in
an available form. The use of too
much lime is harmful and reduces
the growth by one-half when used in
excess. Lime seems to tie up the
phosphates in such way that the
plant is unable to use them. 1t also
prevents nitrates and other soluble
salts from being taken in to the
plant-Michigan Station.

Were you ever out OF employment
lin desperate need Of something
to do; something that would sui
flee as ! livelihood for the family
and yourself? Such conditions as
these sometimes come to each one
Of US il our span Of life.
"A condition such as this demands
some immediate attention, action
that will soon get the old John
Henry back on some ones payroll.
The problem Of unemployment in
Washington is not 3 serious matter,
but it is conceded fact that there
are at all times q certain number
Of people seeking work and employ
nent Of various natures. Execu-
tive positions, clerical work and day
labor situations are among those in
demand. To offset this employment
demand is the fact that EVERY

willing to work. Many vacancies,
pro and con, are taken care of through

Our conclusion is that if you want
employment tell the other fellow
about. it. Advertise the fact that
you want work, tell the folks what
you can do.
