YELLOW LEAVES
ON CITRUS DUE
TO POOR SOIL

Many citrus trees turn yellow at
this time Of the year causing con
siderable damage and worry. cspc,i-
ally to new growers With ..omg
trees, according TO frank Boys
chlqg of the Agricultural EXtcn-
sion Service, farm advisor,
This condition is frequently
simple case of starvation in a poor
soil where there are no uitrates ana
no organic matter from which bac-
terra make nitratcs This often oc-
curs in sandy soils where nitrfics-
tion takes place very rapidly and
organic matter is soon consumed. In
such soils it will likely be neccs.
Sary 10 supply organic matter
twice a year or else give frequent
applications of commercial fcrtl;-
zers such as Sulphate eff ammonia,
nitrate of lime, etc.
Another. more insidious. cause
for yellow leaves comes from too
frequent and heavy applications Of

apart especially on mcr;um or heavy
soil, will bring about the most
hcalthful condition in citrus trees.
but frequent applications whether
heavy or light are not good for
trees in such soil
Water entering soil drives out
air, leaving condition where bac-
terial activity. root growth. and
root activity practically cease. As
soon as the water drains off and
air again returns to the soil the con
dition is again good for root ac-
tivity, but this may consume from
three to six days, depending on the
soil, leaf surface, and weather con-
ditions. If wafer . again applied
in few days the tree Will be un-
able to get necessary minerals from
the sell and a yellowing of the
leaves may be one of the results.
The individual grower should eX-
anime the soil about the tree roots
to a depth of at least IS inches to
determine the condition OF the
roots and the soil before an apph-
cation of water is made.

things
IT'S DIFFICULT to imagine the world
today without some of the things that
make our living in it so pleasant and
comfortable. How naturally we lift the
telephone receiver, step into the auto
mobile, and look for the news of the
world in the newspaper-every day OF
our lives
Another of these usual, invaluable
things, accepted as part of the routine
of existence, is the guidance given by
the advertisements in this newspaper
in supplying our wants from day to day.
We read them. They help us to save
time and money. And our lives 60 Oh
more easily and more fully.
Every day the advertisements suggest
ways in which we can get things we
want with the greatest possible salts
faction to ourselves. They tell us of
new cOnveniences and comforts of
which we would not otherwise have
known. They help us to get down-to-
the-dOllar satisfaction. They assure
