Coffee, or Java" as it is usually
called in the Navy and Marine
Corps, has always been a popular
beverage and has been gaining in
popularity ever since the last grog
ration disappeared from aboard
ship in 1862.
All alcoholic beverages were BAN
ished from wardrooms of the Navy
before the first World War, and
even then coffee was the preferred
drink of large part of the naval
personnel. 1t is always available
and is served to men before and af-
ter watches"
Marine Corps orders direct that,
under certain travel conditions. a
marine will be allowed one pint of
coffee per meal. When officers
aboard ship get together to discuss
news from home and incidents of
ship hge, the by-word is: Lets

A little attention paid to the proper
fertilization OF flowers, shrubs, and
other ornamentals will frequently
give great satisfaction in better and
more lasting paintings. Many flow
ers are rapidly growing plants and
therefore must be assured of a plenti-
full supply of plant food to take care
of their needs during the intense
growing period.
The application Of nitrogen fer
tilizer will produce a rapid and lush
growth. The use of this fertilizer on
new beds frequently gives good re-
suits for a year or two. Then the
paintings do not do so well, to the
disappointment of the gardener.
What he does not realize is the drain
on the phosphate and especially the
potash in the soil made by the plants,
most of which are removed each year
as trash or prunings. A number of
growers use bone meal, which takes
care of the phosphate, but potash is
often very much the neglected child
in the fertilizer family.
With the tendency to use large
amounts of nitrogen to get large
growth, the use of potash is partic-
ularly important These two plant
foods complement each other, and
each does best when used in proper
ratio with the other. The potash bal
ances the rapid-growth-producing
qualities of the nitrogen, and gives
the plant strength, vigor, and the
ability to resist diseases and unfavor-
able weather conditions.
A flower growing on a rich bed
often starts off with a fine growth,
makes big plant, then bends over
and produces a disappointing, small,
and dull bloom. Roses winter-kill
and suffer from black spot in the
summer. Bulb paintings do poorly
after the first year. The cause in
many cases is unbalanced fertiliza-
ton.
Fhe proper fertilizer to use varies
with the paintings and the soil. In
mpst cases, complete fertilizer
should be used. This is one contain
ing nitrogen, phosphoric acid, and
potash. A good general purpose fer
ti4zsE Is one containing the nutri-
Smyrna times., 1941-07-03

ents in 1-2-2 ratio. Such analyses
as 5-10-10, 4-8-8, 4-S-7, and SINH
lar grades fall in this class. In many
sections, potato or tobacco fertilizer
makes good flower fertilizer. In
the analyses, the first figure refers to
the percentage content by weight of
nitrogen, the second to the phosphoric
acid, and the third figure to the
potash, the analyses always being
given in the same order. In buying
fertilizer, more attention should be
paid to the analysis than to the brand
name, since it is the content not the
name that does the work.
Fertilizer should be used during
the spring and summer. When max
ing new beds, it should be evenly
spread after spading, but before
working down the soil. In old beds
the fertilizer should be spread be-
fore working them up, so as to mix
the fertilizer we'll with the soil, and
prevent burning the seed or roots of
the plants. A good rate Of applica-
tion is 3 or 4 pounds per 100 square
feet.
On paintings of roses and other
perennials, the fertilizer should be
spread around the plants several times
during the season at about half a
handful to the plant. Care should
be taken that very little or none Of
the fertilizer comes in direct contact
with the plant. The plants should
be dry when the material is spread,
and it is a good practice to water
we'll after applying the fertilizer.
Complete fertilizer should not be
applied after Labor Day. In order
to harden perennials and make them
go through the winter in better shape,
it is good practice to apply one
or two applications of fertilizer
such as 0-10-10, or 0-l4-l4 during the
fall.
Questions relative to what can be
done about evergreen paintings turn
ing brown are often asked. This
browning usually is due to rust or
ganism, and so far no effective direct
remedy has been found. The best
thing to do is to fertilize as suggested
for perenrials, so as to increase the
general vigor Of the plant.

RIGHT FOOD FOR
GOOD HEALTH
Your Health and Vitality De-
pends on Proper Food
and Right Amount
BY CHARLOTTE SPENCER

An unusual canning project-val-
liable to Delaware's rural school
lunches-has just been started at
State College in Dover.
The project has two aims: ~ to
demonstrate the Importance of can
ming for school and home and (2)
to preserve this summers surplus
fruits and vegetables for health
building school lunches next year.
Rural school teachers have been
greatly pleased at the health inn
provements noted since they have
started serving school lunches.
They say that the children have
fewer colds, gain more weight and
are easier to discipline as a result
of better food for lunch.
However, these same teachers
also say that their lunches would
be improved by more fruits and
vegetables. 1t is hoped that the
canning project now underway will
so improve rural lunches next win
ter that summer canning will al
ways be done for winter school
lunches.
This canning project will employ
about Is National Youth Admin
istration girls, most of whom were
employed last winter in school
lunch preparation. Besides the
work experience they will be in
structed in methods of canning and
storage, elementary nutrition and
school lunch management.

supplied from the purchasing pro-

SERVICE MEN GREAT
DRINKERS OF COFFEE

Uncle Sans military and naval
men are heavy drinkers-of coffee.
An inquiring reporter once made
check at the Commerce, War and
Navy Departments and discovered
that three times as much coffee is
consumed per capita by service
men-soldiers, sailors and marines
as by civilians.
His inquiry also showed that
bluejackets and marines who serve
at sea consume an average of 36
pounds of coffee year, or about
two pounds more than that con-
sumed by soldiers.

Is to stretch one days cooking over
