Wells CONTINUE TO
BE IMPORTANT NEWS
BY CHERIE NICHOLAS

Wells continue to be news in Paris.
With the flood of holiday parties,
women seem always to wear little
hats, oftenest of felt, with double
wells floating over their faces. And
that is the preferred position for
the filmy things for lunch time, too.
Cocktail parties give divided
allegiance to wells, some of them
over the face, but many draped over
the back of the hat, making frame
for the face. Particularly amusing
is one of Therese Peters new Gre
atoms. The tiny pointed skull cap
for it is actually that's of hand
knitted gold thread, Two tiny feather
nightingales ornament it at either
side of the front, and hold the veil
which is also embroidered in night
ingales and sweeps back over the
entire hat, hanging almost to the
shoulders,
Violette Marsan, who is definitely
a partisan of the small hat dipping a
bit over the forehead, prefers her
wells to be quite stiffened so that they
may be turned back from the face
or extended out from the face. These
are shorter, not extending beyond
the nose.

Manure, Straw,
Needed by Soil
Careful Return of Manure
Is an Aid to Land That
Needs Potash.
BY L. B. Miller, Associate in Soil Expert
ment Fields. University of Illi-
noiS.-WNU Service.

BY L. B. Miller, Associate in Soil Expert
ment Fields, University of Illi-
nois.-WNU Service.
Careful return of manure and
straw to fields provides "soil
security program" for those lands
that are on the verge of a potash
deficiency. In the growing of corn
and grain crops, fully two-thirds of
the potash content is in the corn
stalk and straw. If these by-products
of the farm are left on the land
or are applied as manure, they re-
turn some potash to the soil bank"
to be used again.
A study of crop yield data over a
20-year period on six soil expert
mental farms on the gray soils
shows that yield levels were as high
with manure as with potash, basic
treatments of limestone and phos-
plate having been used in each
case. The manure was applied at
the rate at which with careful man
agement it could be accumulated
on any live stock farm.
For the farmer who markets his
crops as grain, the problem is some
what different. At one soil expert
ment field the corn yields on lined
gray silt loam on tight clay for
the rotation ending in 1928 were %
bushels. Since that time yields have
declined to 81 bushels.
This decline appears to be caused
by potash deficiency for, with the
application of oats straw at the rate
of two tons an acre for each four
year rotation since 1929, the corn
yields have been revived to an av-
erage of As bushels for the last
four year period. This treatment
seems also to have satisfied the
potash needs of other crops in the
rotation. Analysis of the straw
showed that each two-ton applica-
ton contained about as much potas-
SUM as is supplied by ITO pounds
of muriate of potash.
After limestone and c1overs have
boosted crop yields above sub
marginal levels, farmers will do well
to watch for potash deficiency. Not
that legume farming is. breeder of
potash shortage in the soil, but as
yields go up, greater demands are
made upon soil minerals. When crop
growth is sufficient to exhaust the
supply of any one of the plant nu-
trients, the crop is handicapped.
A minimum acreage of soil-de-
pleting cultivated crops such as corn
and soy beans, together with the
return of manure and straw, will go
a long way toward making farms
self-suhicient in their potash re-
quirements.

Sash Greenhouses Make
Plant Growing Less Work

Sash greenhouses have so many
advantages over hot beds for grow
ing plants from seed that every
commercial vegetable grower
should have one, believes c. H. Mis-
sley, extension professor of vege-
table growing at the New Jersey
college of agriculture, Rutgers uni
versity.
In sash greenhouses, which are
usually heated by wood stove or
with hot water system, seed SOW
ing and transplanting may be done
in comfort, even during extremely
cold weather, and watering and
ventilating are easier because of
the larger air space under the glass.
Last winter many of these struc-
lures were built. Some of them are
located in the garage. With this ar
rangement, the heat is furnished to
the garage and to- the washing and
packing house as well as to the
greenhouse. "@a'
These structures are not expen-
sive to build. An 18-sash greenhouse
complete with boiler and head house,
new sash and new materials should
cost less than $500, not counting
labor. Where sash is on hand, there
may be no need of buying new. In
stead of purchasing a new boiler,
a good second hand one, purchased
at low price, may be used. For
permanent structures, concrete
or hollow tile foundation and walls
are recommended. Wooden sides
may also be used if lumber is avail
able. !
