COMES A PLEA from Charles
f. Boyd, secretary of the Retail
Merchants Association for
greater tolerance on the part Of
shoppers with store personnel
problems.
While most shoppers realize
that wartime emergency
exists, there are still few dis
playing impotence with the
slight delays sometimes caused
by the shortage Of help, MIR.
Boyd says.
Salesgirls, added Mr.. Boyd,
are sometimes overworked
too tired to be amiable as you
think they ought TO be. Manage
ment knows this, but for the
time being they can do nothing
about IL.
Il don't believe there is a store
in Detroit nor any other
type of industry for that matter
+. that would not employ more
help if il were available" he
added.
Jobs Open
And this, he said. brings TO
mind that there are many OPEN
ings throughout the city for
married women who want 10
work even if for only a few
days a week . and for elderly
people and those Ineligible for
war service or war plant work.
So, shoppers be patient
with the help situation. It's
hard, 1 know l find it so.
We in America, the swiftest
moving peoples in the world
can't bear being slowed down
.. you could tear your hair out
waiting TO buy spool OF thread

taurant.
But there's nothing TO do but

patience is a vital part Of the

grain or rye grass when allowed to
make a fair growth in the spring
will add as much nitrogen to the
soil as will 1000 pounds of a

Three legumes listed in the fold
er entitled Green Manure and Coy
er Crops" recently distributed by
the Delaware Agricultural Exten-
sion Service, that should be seeded
between now and the middle of
September are crimson clover, la

Crimson clover is adapted to the
entire state on well-drained soil,
and responds to moderate lime and
potash. 1t may be seeded at the
rate of 20 pounds per acre alone,
or 10 pounds with is pounds of
rye grass or bushel OF wheat. It
is recommended with rye grass in
corn at the last cultivation, after
early truck crops and as a winter
cover crop in orchards and vine
yards. This legume also make ex-
cellent hay if cut at the right stage
and properly stored.
,Ladino clover is also adapted to
the entire state and should be seed
ed at the rate of three to four
pounds per acre. 1t is recommend
ed for permanent sod in orchards
and is considered the best pasture
plant. .-. y...-..

may be seeded at the rate of IL to

or wheat, or with Is pounds of rye
grass. 1t is recommended as a gen.
eral winter cover crop in the nor
