Mulching Protects Plants,
Keeps Strawberries Clean

Unless protected by a layer ol
mulch, strawberry plants may heave
out Of the soil when alternate freez-
ing and thawing occurs In winter and
eSrlv spring. DR. e. w. Greve, re-
search horticulturist for the Della
ware Agricultural Experiment Sta
ton. suggests that applications OF
mulching materials be made after
the ground freezes. Putting mulch
on strawberry beds before the
ground freezes may cause injury to
the plants if short periods of warm
weather result in continued growth
under tho mulch.
OF the materials used for mulch
ing wheat straw and rye straw are
probably the most popular. And
where marsh hay may be obtained.
it serves as a satisfactory mulch.
Enough of the straw or hay mulch
must be put on strawberry beds to
prevent rapid freezing and thawing
of the soil For most Delaware soils,
layer of mulch about two inches
thick serves to prevent injury to
strawberry plants. Two or three
tons of the mulching material per
acre are usually required to give
coed coverage.
Besides the protection obtained by
using a good mulch during winter
months. other benefits are realized
by leaving the straw or hay cover on
the beds through harvest time. The
mulch will keep the plants from
starting to grow early in the spring.
This checking Of early spring growth
avoids the possibility Of blossoms
being killed by frosts.
Since successful cleaning of sand
and grit fro mripe Strawberries is
yimpossible, many grow
ers depend on 4 good mulch to pro-
tect fruit at harvest time. Most of
the ripe Strawberries lie on the
material rather than the
ground. The mulch also prevents
splashing Of muddy water on the
fruit.
During the growing season, the !
straw or hay mulch on strawberry |
bed will hold valuable moisture |
which might be lost through run-off |
md evaporation

WHERE YOUR DOLLAR
GOES

The American consumers, as q
group, probably have less realiza-
tion thah they should have Of how
far progressive retailing has gone
in cutting costs and reducing over
head-to the end that the buyer gets
more goods and better goods for his
money.
A recent survey by the Institute OF
Distribution concerning the division
of each dollar spent in chain stores,
is OF great interest. Taking a typi-
cal mfdd1e-sized state as an exam
pie, it shows that 671S cents out of
that dollar goes to producers who
sell the chains the goods they carry.
A large part of them are local peo-
pie
Fifteen cents out of that dollar
goes to pay the wages of local men
ana women, employed in the stores,
in executive ofices, in warehouses,
etc.
Five cents of that dollar goes to
pay rent to local property owners
One and one-haH cents of that
dollar is spent for local advertising.
including newspaper space, hand
bills, suffers, and so on.
Three cents of that dollar goes for
taxes Federal. state and local
Five ceh1ts Of that dollar is spent
for other expenses-lieht, heat, in
snFahee, membership in civic or
ganizations, donations to charities,
welfare drives, etc. Practically all of
this Is spent within the state.
That adds up to ninety
cents. Out OF the humble three cents
remaining, the chains must pay in
terest on their Investments, pay for
improvements and new facilities,
build up a fund against possible de-
preston periods IA the future -and,
finally, earn q little profit for their
armies of stockholders, the major
ity of whom are people Of modest
means.
What is true of the chains is true
of the better independents Modern
earns an incredibly small
return on each transaction-and de- |
pends on big turnover to provide rea-
sonabIe net profit. The consumer
reaps the benefits in savings.

dencies.. interests and necessities"
Other Republics have thrown cold
water on the plan to pump-priIne
support to consolidate 81 Govern
ments into huge trade monopoly,
and reports from Latin America in
dicate that it has real statesmen
who believe that the cartel" would
do no one any good.
i In the sober ''mornings-after"
these schemes to button up econo-
mic relations with all these Repub-
lies look like an attempt to extend
our national New Deal into CEN
tralized control Of 21 nations, and
the model resembles the Three-A's

ories that were so fatal to little
pigs, and so useless and expensive
IN aid of the "granaries," and the
farm crops.
South Americas principal exports
are farm products, and in recent
peace times as high as 40 per cent
of their foreign commerce has been
with European nations. That is why
the cartel proposal looks like horse

RADIANT LIVING
The Quest for God
By REV. G. M GKIFFETfI
Faster Methodist Church, Cecilton, Md

The greatest quest of man is not
for gold It is not for excitement.
It is not for pleasure. The greatest
quest of man is for God.
You may not agree with me in
this, but tell me why irreligious men
who have massed unlimited wealth
are yet SO dissatisfied? Tell me why
poor men who have found God in a
lreal way have also found a deep
inner joy
The quest for God is latent in
every heart. 1t is in your heart.
Have you not felt a longing to
recognize God in the fragrance Of a
flower, in the beauty of sunrise,
ia the majesty of mountain? Have
you net felt a longing to recognize
Him In the face of an innocent child
or in the wrinkled countenance of a
grandmother, the veteran Of hfe's
battles?
Out of that inward hunger for God
rises the prayer: That / might
fellowship with HIM"
Not only to know Him, but to talk
with Himi To be conscious of the
AOW VI St4updtuctAC uudCA otahAth6'
TO reach q place in consciousness
wherein / know that | am not alone
but that He is ever with me! That
is fellowship divine!
Divine Fellowship is glorious. But
to partake Of the Divine nature. to
feel It thFillingly surging within, to
be conscious of its warmth and its
power is to taste the ecstacies of
Heayenl 49,
The quest for God is not complete
until the human spirit and the Di-
vine spirit become one. The quest
for God is not complete until one

POLITICAL PARTIES PLANNING

The Democratic National Commit.
tee is givine UP its modern quarters
in the National Press building in
Washington and taking over 81
rooms in the swanky Mayfiower Ho-
tel. Chairman Flynn says there
will be no jackson Day dinners this
year, and the substitute will be big
celebrations throughout the country
in Victory dinners" at which faith
full democrats will have ample OPP
portunity to turn their pockets In
side out in furnishing financial sup
port to the party machine.
The Republicans are sitting tight,
and their first move is in the direc-
tion of building up thousands Of or
ganizations in all parts of the coun-
try, with the Wif1kie campaign clubs
remodeled and streamlined for a
four-year journey. These will be
rechristened and known as Republic
can Clubs. The hope already blooms
that they will become powerful even
by the time of the Congressional
elections, in 1912.

Request Civil Rights
For Indian Soldiers

The Fort Peck Indian council has
begun an attempt to obtain complete
civil rights for all Indians who served
in the armed forces Of the United
States.
A draft of bin to grant Indian vet
Grams of armed service full citizenship
was approved by the council and copies
were forwarded to Senator B. K Wheel
er and Representative James F. O'Con-
nor for introduction in both houses Of
congress.
Chairman George washington of the
tribal council Of the Fort Peck Indians
said council members would work for
enactment Of the bill and would seek
support Of all patriotic organizations In
an effort to grant long delayed JUS
tice to our American Indian soldiers"
Under the proposed act, the secretary
Of war would certify to the secretary Of
the interior the right to full citizen
ship Of any Indian who had served or
will serve in the future in the armed
forces. Interest of the Indians In UNI
divided tribal property would not be
impaired by acceptance Of civil rights
under the measure.

we also have the following depart
ments for the patients, art, music, in
terpretative dancing, manual training
and many Of the men patients make
rugs out of rags gathered here. The
instructors in the dancing, music, art,
and manual training departments are
paid for by the WPA and national
youth administration.
Patients Are Occupied
The patients are taken for daily walks
outside, are kept busy playing suitable
games, cards and the usual inside and
outside games. A male recreational
teacher and male manual training
teacher is employed by the WPA for
the men. We have motion picture shows
for the patients each Friday. The pic
lures are furnished free by the Fox
Picture Corp. we have plays and mu-
steals for the patients by travelling COM
panies, and also plays and entertain
ments in which the patients take part
and In which they take great deal
of interest. These interests and diver
sions for the patients are great ben
eft to them. The idea Is to get them
interested In something and keep them
busy.
1t is necessary to have the assistance
of patients TO do the work Of the in
stitution. They are assigned to the work
they are best fitted for. Many patients
are paroled on the grounds with no
supervision. Many are allowed out I'M
der supervision. Many are not allowed
out at all. We have many criminal in
sane here. We are charged to use dill
igent supervision to prevent their es-
cane. Some are dangerous persons and
would be dangerous and destructive on
the outside. It is our duty to prevent
escapes. Our employees on the wards
work 12-hour shifts. Other employees
work eight-hour shifts.
