START YOUR GARDEN NOW!

Washington State College, Pullman
IF you want garden this sum
mer now is the time to plan and to
begin working on it. Do not delay
thinking about your garden until after
you have seen crocuses and daffodils
blooming says j. R. Herman, State
College instructor in landscape
gardening.
TOO often people wait until Easter
time and then rush to the nearest
seed store and attempt to purchase
seeds of their favorite flowers. FIRE.
quently they find to their sorrow that
the particular variety wanted has
been sold, or that the seeds should
have been planted months previously
in order to have the plants bloom at
the proper time.
Other people rely on gifts from
their more industrious neighbors for
root divisions, seeds, and seeding.
Such individuals may be compared
with the Biblical character who was
willing to sit around and wait for
crumbs to fall from the rich mans
table. A mutual exchange, however,
will often increase the variety of
flowers and ornamentals grown"

RECOMMENDATIONS ON
HOW TO START ALFALFA

Select well drained land, which has
been cleaned of grass by cultivated
crop the previous season.
Fertilizer.
Apply good coat of manure (Poul-
try manure preferredD and 500 to COO
pounds Of superphosphate per acre in
February or early March.
Soil Preparation.
If soil is light. disi as early as you
can get on the land the manure and
phosphate, but do not pillow. Guilt
vate once week or ten days with
spike tooth harrow until seeding
time, from May LIST, to June LIST.
If soil is heavy with considerable
fall and winter growth, the manure
and superphosphate may be disked In

Seed
Use Grimm alfalfa seed Certified

incubation
Secure incubation from Agronomy
Department, State College of Wash
Washington, at cost of Csc per acre.
The College has fresh cultures and
strains of bacteria acclimated to
Western Washington conditions APP
ply according to directions with the
package.
Seeding
Sow broadcast, by hand, wheel
barrow seeder or blizzard seeder and
cover with spike-tooth harrow with
teeth well slanted back so the seed
is not put too deep. One-half to
three-fourths inches is a good depth
for alfalfa seed.
If the ground is loose roll, prefer
ably with cultipacker or a CORFU
gated roller.
Weeds
Weeds will probably come as good
as the alfalfa. Do not cut the weeds
until just before they go to seed. How
ever, if alfalfa begins to turn yellow
generally over the field before this
weed stage is reached it should be
cut.

HEALTH AND
DIET
BY Logan Clendening-

A condition known as punch
drunk" occurs in prize fighters
who have taken punishment en-
the head. but may occur in
anyone who receives a blow or
injury on the head. For some
time it was supposed to be a
purely mental or neurotic con
dition, and fighters who ex-
hibited it we're often accused Of
being yellow, but the oppor-
tunity for careful study shows
that it is due to actual changes
in the brain substance, the re-
suit usually of small hemor-
rhages into the brain orh.
stance.
Gene Tunney's Story
In 1928 Gene Tunney was
quoted as telling the following
story in connection with lis
training for the Dempsey fight:
"I went into a clinch with my
head down. something I never
do. plunged forward and ny
partners head came up and
butted me over the left eye,
cutting and dazing me badIV.
Then he stepped back and
swung his right against my jaw
with every bit of his power.
It landed flush and Stiffened
me where stood. That is the
last thing I remembered for
two days. They tell me that I
finished the round, knocking
the man out"
The Fatal Seventh
According to Tunney, not IN
til the seventh round of his
fight with Dempsey was he ell
tirely normal. From that lrci.
dent was born my desire to quit
the ring forever. the first op-
portunity that presented itself
but most of all, I wanted to
leave the game that had threat
ened my sanity before I met
with an accident in a real fight
with six-ounce gloves that
would permanently hurt my
brain.
His fears were well founded.
There are always a bunch Of
old fighters or trainers around
a training camp who are vic
tins of this condition. They
are described in ring parlance
as cutting paper dolls" or
Slug nutty," or "punrh
drunks." "cookoos" or "goofies."
