.TARDIEU SUPPORTED
Chamber of Deputies Gives
Vote of Confidence.

BIZ United Press
PARIS, Dec. 6.-The chamber of
deputies voted confidence in Pre-
mier Andre Tardieu's government
Thursday night, even though the
members had to pledge themselves
to work overtime to do it.
Tardieu, mounting the tribune
during the afternoon, accused left
groups in parliament of using OBJ
structionists tactics and proposed
that the chamber meet every morn
ing, afternoon and night, including
Sundays, until the agricultural bud
get was passed.
Edouard Daladier, president of
the radical Socialists, resented the
declaration, fought his way to the
platform and pleaded for the left
groups to refuse confidence in the
government.
Three hours later, however, when
the move was put to a vote Tar
dieu won, $50 to 142.

For most of the orchard crops,

The growth produced last year.
Trees which have produced a good
growth Of 9 to Is inches should
not be fortified at least not heav-
ily. with any fertilizer, according
to hest recommendations we have
The Kennewick courier-reporter. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1914-1938, 1929-01-03

been able to get. Fertilization on
an orchard of this kind would just
have a tendency to increase the
twig growth and effect the devel-
opment of color particularly for
apples at the time when fruit
should color. Trees which show
only a small amount of terminal
growth, 8 to inches, and which
showed a lack of good color and
size of leaves, should he fortified
with either nitrate of soda or am
monium sulphate at the rate of 6
to z pounds of nitrate of soda or 5
to pounds of ammonium sulphate
per tree, for trees which show a
medium terminal growth, not more
than 2 1-2 to 3 pounds of nitrate
or 2 to 2 1-2 pounds Of ammonium
sulphate should be used.
This fertilizer should be applied
as we said previously, very soon,
and should be broadcasted over
the entire area between the tree
rows and not scattered too closely
to the tree itself as the roots will
|be found not closer than three feet
The Kennewick courier-reporter. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1914-1938, 1929-01-03

the rate of application which can
be economically applied. We are
finding that some of our aspara-
gus fields are being given coat
of manure, which is not economical
considering the general farm pro-
gram, and the fertilizer needs of
the various areas on the farm.
The above application of COM
mercial fertilizers is on the acre
basis and M. d. Armstrong, extern
sion specialist in horticulture at
the college, has recommended that
two applications he made, one at
this time of the year, and the 9TH
er Immediately after cutting. The
one at this time of the year should
be broadcasted over the surface and
the one Immediately after cutting,
applied in the bottom of the irri-
cation bitches. Each application
then would require just half the
amount that is given above.
Strawberry fertilization should
be arranged just as those for as
paragus, but the amount of fertil-
izers will be as follows: $50 pounds
nitrate of soda or 200 pounds of
ammonium sulphate, 200 pounds
of potash and 800 pounds Of super
phosphate. The application of these
fertilizers should be made at two
different times of the year, one APP
plication now, and the other i'm
mediately after harvest. At the
hort meeting at Kennewick, grow
erse stated that much better re-
suits were secured where fertil-
izers were applied directly to the
rows than between rows for straw
berry fertilization. Care must be
taken however, that fertilizers be
applied at time when plants will
not be dry for for a Ion period, pre-
fereably just before or during a
rain, also spread the fertilizers
well.

MINERAL FEEDING OF DAIRY
COWS

Mineral feeding dairy cattle is
oming to be generally practiced by
a good many dairymen. Roy Jones
extension dairy specialist, had
made the general recommendation
that equal parts of sterilized bone
lour, ground limestone or air slak-
ed lime and common salt, being
thoroughly mixed and then that
this be fed with the grain mixture
at the rate of a pounds of the min
eral mixture to 100 pounds of
grain. Some others have recon-
mended the use of sterilized bone
flour and salt, using 8 or a pounds
of this mixture to 100 pounds of
grain.
One important thing that should
be always considered before one
goes to the expense of feeding a
mineral mixture is that unless
some form of winter succulents is
being fed, that minerals will not be
assimulated in large enough quaint
tiles to make the feeding worth
while. The winter succulepce may
he either silage or root crops or
squash. Dry feeds do not seem to
carry essentials which assist in
the assimilation of the mineral.
This is an added reason for the
feeding of succulents during the
winter months. Dairymen should
now begin to consider this crop
for next year.
While mineral feeding has been
recommended as "a cure all for
many ailments of dairy COWS, par
ticularly, Mr.. Jones has pointed
out that too much should not be
expected as a result of mineral
feeding. It's main purpose is to
keep the cow in good condition.
physically, so that she is able to
overcome diseases which otherwise
might gain a foot hold in the fall
and cause serious trouble later on.
Home mixed mineral rations are
just as effective as the often much
higher priced preparatory mixtures
and the use of either one of the
above mixtures should give re-
suits if they can be secured thru
the feeding of minerals.

To Be, Not to Do

The besetting sin in America Is
to conjugate the verb to do every
moment instead Of to be. The in
cessant activity, regardless Of what
It is all about, leaves us empty.
People do not enjoy their own So
ciety because 1t is not worth en-
Toying. They are not taught to
have any resources within them
selves. l think that the founding
of the school Of business admins
tratson at Harvard, for example, is

to educational ideals In America

Go Far Back in History

The origin Of the Olympic games
is lost In antiquity. The official
list of victers begins with GORGEOUS,
who won the foot race in TIC B. O.
They were celebrated every four
years, and were at their height in
the Fifth and Fourth centuries B. @.
The games continued until 394 A. D.,
when they were suppressed by En-
peror TheodOsius. The modern Sc
ries of Olympic games began in
Athens In 1895.

For those who would like to ex-
pertinent, we would recommend
small plot of the orchard being
fortified with a complete fertil-
izer made up Of the same amount
of nitrates, (either nitrate Of soda
or ammoniumsulphate, preferably
the latter) used on the remainder
of the orchard, and then applying
8 pounds of super phosphate and
8 pounds of muriate or sulphate
of potash per tree to this SMALL
plot. A complete fertilizer of 5-6-
8 composition or such fertilizer
as Morecrop L or any other such
fertilizer can be applied in the
place of the nitrate, superphos-
phate and muriate or sulphate of
potash.
In using the fertilizer of 5-6-8
composition, it would he necessary

work were followed up over five
or four year period. Anyone inter-
ested in having the county agent
assist in outlining the fertilization
of the orchard, by writing to the
County Agent, he would be glad
to give him this help.
For asparagus fertilization, I
would recommend essentially the
same system of fertilization, that
| is, the fertilization of the entire
! acreage with nitrate Of soda at
the rate of 400 pounds to the acre
or 800 pounds of ammonium sui
phate. A small plot could then be
marked off across one end, on
which the same amount of nitrates
