RED FESQUE GRASS ADVISED
FOR EXPOSED PLACES
IN LAWN
In LAWN

Gardeners and home owners who
have experienced difficulty in secur-
ing stand of grass in certain Sec
lions of their lawns or under certain
heavy shade trees, such as the silver
maple, are advised to use red fesque
grass which has been found to do
especially we'll under such adverse
conditions, according to Walter r.
Ballard, horticulturist for the Uni
versity of Maryland Extension Ser
vice.
He, says that while commercial
stocks of red fesque sometimes vary
in purity of strain, giving variation
in foliage color and habit of growth,
investigation has shown that it Is
possible to select types especially
we'll adapted to lawn use. This par
ticular strain of grass has the virtue
of being fine loafed and makes soft
mat, although it does not grow very
high.
Soil rich in organic matter and
well fertilezed with phosphate ferti-
lizers is essential to best results from
the grass, according to Mr.. Ballard.
Hence, it may be necessary, especial
ly if the roots of the tree are expos
ed, to build up around the base of
the tree with top soil, even If it is
necessary to mound. In very bad
cases, it may be better to grow
stand of tn grass in the garden, or
in a nearby field, and later transfer
a well-developed sod to the exposed
areas.
In any case, it is better to do the
seeding in the fall of the year so
that the young grass will not be sub
jected to the whitening effect of a
long hot and dry summer, says Mr..
Ballard.

UNEMPLOYED YOUTH VITAL
PROBLEM

The youth problem, in its varied
aspects, is of marked concern to the
nations observers of social trends.
These observers realize that, if con-
structive social work is to be effec-
tive and if civilization is to be not
only saved but advanced, such work
must be started now. Delays, II is
declared, are dangerous to the full
fillment of those ideals upon which
the free institutions of mankind are
based. Literally hundreds of thou
sands of our young people were pre-
pared to enter the professional, in
dustrial, and commercial pursuits,
but were unable to find employment.
Because of disuse, much of the
knowledge they acquired is being
forgotten.
Many youths, responding to that
restless urge which has always push
ed the race into untrodden paths,
left home in search of employment.
Some found work; few took to
forms of crime; while others, frus-
trated in their hopes, sought solution
of their plight in Joining the ranks OF
those who would radically change
our form of government and our
economic system.
More than million youths are in
the colleges and universities of our
country Upwards of 100000 leave
our high schools each year. Only
about half of them complete the high
school course.
In a recent comprehensive state
ment on the youth problem, U. S.
Commissioner of Education, DR.. John
w. Studebaker, said:
"The magnitude of the problem is
not generally comprehended. Esti-
mates of the number of unemployed
during the worst period of unemploy-
ment are varied from ten to fourteen
millions. The number of young peo-

CHEVROLET TRUCK SALES SET
RECORD

The Chevrolet Motor Company re-
port that retail sales of trucks this
year to April 1, totalling 40,332,
have set record for first quarter
sales for the last six years, and have
been exceeded only once before In the
history of the company, in the first
quarter of 1929.
Special significance is seen in a
marked increase in registrations of
half-ton trucks, says the Chevrolet
announcement issued by w. e. Fish,
manager Of the truck division, who
declared that this gain is particu-
larly healthy sign in that it is con-
elusive evidence that small mer-
chants, whose business was the first
to suffer in che depression, are now
coming back. y
Chevrolet's smaller trucks, Of
half-ton capacity, such as are largely
used by these small business places,
showed a SO per cent gain in regis
trations so far officially reported,
said Mr.. Fish.
/ The high rate of sales, of all class
les of trucks, which established the
first quarter of the year as the Sec
ond highest in the history of Chevro-
let, says the company's statement, Is
continuing unabated, sales for the
first ten days in April having shown
a greater increase per cent over the
same period of last year than did the
first quarter. Total truck sales for

WEEDS WORST ENEMY TO GOOD
PASTURES

What can farmers do to make
pastures more efficient?"
This is the question frequently
asked of forage men in the United
States Department of Agriculture.
Farmers explain that feeds and seeds
are high in price; that more de-
pendence must be put upon land al
ready in pasture.
Weeds probably are the greatest
handicap to pastures which are prop
erly grazed, and yet receive little
notice from many good farmers, ac-
cording to L. w. Kephart, of the Blu
reau of Plant Industry. Weeds, he
says, usually can be eliminated by
proper care of pastures.
First under proper care" is de-
struction of tall-growing weeds, like
wild carrot, ferns, and ragweed, by
moving, cutting, grubbing, or pull
ing. Close, systematic moving
probably accomplishes the most good
with the least amount of man labor
and if faithfully followed will
eliminate most weeds.
There are some weeds, like buck
horn, hawkweed, and dandelions,
that grow so low that moving does
not control them. A roundabout,
but an effective, way to eradicate
such weeds is to apply phosphate
fertilizer. Phosphates bring in
the white clover, which in turn adds
nitrogen to the soil. Soil deficient
in plant food cannot produce good
pasture. Il
Some weeds are actually poisonous,
and should be removed bodily. Most
of them, like water hemlock and
white snakeroot, grow in clumps on
fairly fertile soil at the edge of
woodlands. In the early spring they
can be easily pulled out. Some Of
the bushy weeds which can be de-
stroyed by cutting are hard hack,
buck brush. hawthorn, sassafras and
persimmon sprouts, ferns, and snow
on-the- mountain.

WORTH MONEY TO FARMER TO
KNOW HIS TREES
Forest Service Offers Information On
Measuring and Marketing
woodland prOducte

Forest Service OfferS Information On
Measuring and Marketing
Woodland Products
Lack of familiarity with the meth
DDS of estimating and selling timber
often puts the farm woodland owner
a.. a disadvantage, causing him to
sell his forest product at consider
ably less than it's real value, accord
ing to the estfservice, u, S. De-
partment of Agriculture.
Generally speaking, says the For
est Service, it is better for the farm
er to do his own cutting and selec-
ton of trees for logs, poles, ties,
bolts, posts, mine timbers, billets,
pulpwood, and even cordwood, be-
cause he can take care TO avoid dam
age to thrifty young growing stock
and leave his woodlands in better
condition to grow another timber
crop. In any case, he should make
a careful estimate of the amount and
quality of his standing timber. He
should also, where possible, sell by
sizes and grades, and have them spe-
Gifted in the contract, to get the
maximum cash returns.
If the farmer cannot himself esti-
mate the amount and value of his
timber for SALE. The Forest Service
reminds the woodlot owner that 1t
is better to sell his best grades of
timber and use less valuable ma
terial for rough construction or re-
pairs about the farm.
Unlike other crops, the timber
crop keeps best in the tree. If the
market is not right, the cutting can
wait, and the timber stand may i'm
prove with age. Once cut, 1t may
deteriorate, unless marketed prompt
ly. 1t is better to find market be-
fore cutting. BY cutting his own
timber crop, the farmer gainfully
employs his labor and team or truck.
But he is a producer, not a manu-
facturer, and the Fores: Service is
not advising farmers to go into the
sawmill business.
To assist the farmer to get the best
returns from his wooded acres, the
Department of Agriculture offers the
inquirer information without cost on
measuring and preparing timber pro-
ducts for market. This information,
in booklet prepared by the Forest
Service, tells how to prepare a dozen
major products. how TO make and
use measuring sticks, how to grade,
stack, and protect the prepared tim
Der, and how to reach the best mar
kets. Besides other helpful sug-
gestions on selection and volume
measurement, it also contains copies
of standard specifications and con-
tracts.
The booklet, Farmers Bulletin No.
1910, Measuring and Marketing
Farm Timber" recently reprinted,
was prepared by w. R. Nation and
w. B. Barrows of the Forset Service.
1t can be obtained from the Superin-
tendent of Documents, Washington.

No burdens to carry, no heartaches,
And we shall be young again.
No night in that land eternal,
Our eyes never filled with tears;
We shall be happy forever,
No counting of time by years.

And sing the new, new song,
Around Gods Throne forever,

Under the sun in Hawaii, new
pineapples are ripening every day

This directory was issued February

When the directory was printed
only three local physicians would al
