Readers Of Editorials

Only q per cent-Or about one
out feveTy five-readers of news
papers read as much as one editor
ial regularly, according to a survey
made by a scholar of the University
of Iowa The Investigator further
discovered that as editorial readers
women rank still lower than men,
while only one person out Of 2l
reads all the editorials.
All of which is rather discOurag-
ing for the earnest and laboriOus
editor full of ideas and ideals who
has felt that he was shaping public
opinion, raising the standard of
morality, stimulating the art of
thinking and encouraging all good
acts and aspirations. Now after all
his high-minded endeaVor he learns
that when he brOadcasts most peO-
pie turn their radios off.
But there is one consolation. The
investigator found that the cont ent,
the quality, of the editorial had
nothing to do with the matter--that
good editorials. and poor ones fare
Just about alike. So the editor is as
much without blame as he is with
out appreciation.-The Pathfinder.

COUNTY AGENT TELLS WHY
CORN SHOULD BE CULTIVATED

Why cultivate corn? After a week
of rains, when the weeds have all
but obscured the struggling young
corn plants, there can be but one
answer to this question. But ask a
group of farmers who have followed
or ridden the cultivatOr and you will
get a variety of answers. Conserve
moisture" kill weeds" make a
mulch" and break the soil crust,
will be some of the reasons given.
Regardless of this, the fact remains
that a good job of killing weeds
does, at the same time, most of the
other things. Tests made i'm %
states by the u S. Department OF Ag
riculture have shown that yields
from cultivated corn averaged no
higher than those from urcuitivated
plots where weed growth was pre-
vented ~ surface ScraFing. 1t ap-
pears from this that the primary OBJ
lect is to kill The weeds ana that
ma, ng a Ululch,' break Is the
soil crust" a"'l OthIs are by-prOd
ucts effects.
The greatest loss of moisture from
the corn field is through the leaves.
The more weeds there are, the less
moisture for the corn. So, from the
standpoint of moisture, weeds are di-
rect competitors of corn and hand;-
cap this crop greatly. The most ef-
fective moisture control is the kind
that gets the weeds before they make
much growth
Again, many of the common weeds
in corn fields consume more nitrogen
than the young corn. Hence, con-
servation of plant food is another
point in favor of clean cultivation.
Regardless of how fertile the
fields of any Sussex county farmer
may be, none have soil fertility TO
waste. Certainly no one who has in
vested in commercial plant food
wants to see his profit reduced
through robbery" by weeds. 1t is
poor business to waste plant food,
whether from the soil or from the
fertilizer bag, but this will happen
with poor or ineffective weed control

JUNE, JULY AND AUGUST ARE
MONTHS OF MOST ACCIDENTS

Figures covering a period OF sew
eral years prove pretty cOnclusively
that 28 per cent of the years acci-
dental deaths will occur during the
three months of June, July and Au-
gust. Without records to prove the
contrary, it would appear that one
fourth of the year should include
only one-fourth of the fatalities.
A knowledge of the hazards most
prominent in summer is valuable.
With this information at hand it is
possible to take those precautions
that will lead to the greatest degree
of summer safety.
Drowning is the most prominent
type of fatal accident during this
season. This is not because it is
responsible for the most deaths (mo-
tor vehicle fatalities are more fire.
quent), but because the proportion
of drowning deaths which occur in
the summer is larger than the pro
portion of any other type of acci-
dental death. Over One-half of all
the deaths from this cause occur
uur.ng the three months of June,
July and August.
The twimming hazard, of course,
will be reduced when more people
learn to swim and when good swim
mers avoid taking unnecessary
risks. Also-and this is important ,-
it is essential that the swimmer
learn the technique of the prone
pressure method of artificial respira-
ton. Approximately $50 lives are
saved each year in drowning cases
alone by prompt application of these
principles.
Drownings, are followed by deaths
from electric shock, not including
lightning, with AZ per cent occur
ring in the summer months. Here
again, universal knowledge of prone
pressure resuscitation would cut
down the toll.
In the transportation field, 81 per
cent of the fatal aerOplane accidents,
20 per cent of the railroad fatalities,
and 26 per cent of the motor vehicles
deaths occur during the summer.
Auto drivers need to take precau-
ton in their summer touring. When
they get away from the familiar
haunts they find strange highway
hazards. Grade crossings bob up
Unexpectedly, regulations and signs
may not be the same as those to
which they are accustomed, and the
tendency to divide attention between
the wheel and the scenery is great.
Summer deaths from accidental
poisoning amount to 28 per cent of
the years total. These deaths in
clude food and animal pOisonings as
well as other types.
Excessive heat is almost eXclu-
sively a hot weather hazard. Too
much exposure to the suns rays
brings the condition about. It. can
be avoided through the development
of health habits, through the wear
ing of proper clothing and through
the avoidance of over-fatigue and
alcohol.
1t is important to learn first aid
treatment for sunstroke or heat
stroke, which consists mainly of re-
ducing the victims temperature.

Secretary Hyde Urges
Abandonment Of Land

Secretary of Agriculture Hyde has
issued a recommendation that far
mers of poorer lands abandon mill
lions of acres, both for their own
benefit and for the benefit of agri-
culture in general.
In a stirring appeal, contained in
an article by Secretary Hyde in
The Country Home, he declares that
this vast acreage of poor farm land
is a detriment to the prosperity of
the country and to that of ChOse who
live upon it. He recommends that
the land be planted in trees, or, if
not, be allowed to lie fallOw until
the soil has built itself up.
There are millions of acres of
lands in the United States" says

MUST TAKE PERMIT
FOR GAS STATION
State Highway Department Calls
Attention TO Law Requirement

Persons who intend to build fill
ing stations, and other places of
business fronting on the trunk high
ways outside cities and villages,
should first get a permit from the
Highway Department, according to
a bulletin from the Department.
The permit, it is pointed out, is not
for the station itself, for the Depart
ment has no power nor any desire
to regulate private business outside
the highway right-of-way. But a per-
NIT is required for the driveway
connecting the station with the
highway.
In many cases individuals have
built their stations before making
arrangements for connection with
the highway. After they are up it is
some times found that they are so
located that driveways and parking
space cannot be arranged without
creating a serious traffic hazard
The Highway Department is then
forced to choose between denying a
permit, causing heavy expense to the
station owner for moving his tanks
and station, or permitting a situa-
ton which will endanger the trav-
cling public. Pumps must be set
back so that vehicles being filled are
entirely outside the highway right
of-way.
Within organized cities and towns,
the granting of permits for filling
stations rests with the municipal
authorities.

HIGH SCORING MARKS
Aqua CALIENTE PLAY
Loos Alone Equals Par in First
Round of $4,000 0ren-New
Ball a Hazard.
BY the Associated Press.


Aqua CALIENTE, Mexico, December
24.-The field in the qualifying round Of
the second annual Aqua Caliente SIS, 900
open golf championship went into the
final 10 holes today with Eddie Loos,
Pasadena and Chicago professional,
leading, by virtue of having turned in
the only par score of the first Ii yester-
day.
Only one other golfer, Dewey Long
worth of Oakland, came even close to
Loos' II, as a high wind ruined scores
for the ma jority of the 81 shotmakers
attempting to qualify. The Oakland
man had a. 70. Front tees were used.
The brisk wind was abetted by a
mental hazard resulting from use of the
new and lighter ball, which sent the
scores skyward during the first half Of
the qualifying round. The cherished
circle of so to be admitted from these
qualifiers to the tournament proper,
opening January IS, will be attained by
a score of about 165 or under, for the
SO holes of qualifying play, as a result
of yesterdays scores.
Ton professionals and 10 or IS ANA
teurs will tee off in the battle for the
awards tctaling $25 900 when the open
begins. Some 40 pros are eligible be-
cause oN having been among those in
the first 80 places in the national open
and the P. G. A. tournament.
Jim Heaney of New York, coming in
in 8 over par, was third in yesterdays
play, while five golfers were grouped
with cards of 76 in fourth place and
seven qualifiers took scores Of II to
bunch up in fifth.
Tony Manero, New Yorker, who won
the Pasadena open recently, had an 30,
which placed him in eighth place with
nine other players
