SIX MORE STATES REMOVE
MARGARINE RESTRICTIONS
BY BETTY MACDONALD
NEA Staff COrreSnOndent

Washington, June 30-Six more
states have wiped their restrictive
taxes against margarine off their
statute books. They are Oklahoma,
California, Pennsylvania, Oregon,
Iowa and New York, all of which
have taken the action this year.

items don't take much metal, but
shortages in these notions cause
the largest amount of human ir-

pins will apparently keep more
women happier than If the same
amount of steel were put in one
refrigerator to make one woman
happy.

not too early. To obtain a COM
paratively long picking season. it is
desirable to plant several varieties
with varying maturity periods, but
plant them all on the same day
as early as the ground can be
worked. Succession paintings can
not be depended on in this area for
prolonging the harvest period.
While peas take considerable gar
den space, they are out of the way
in time for the second planting of
beans and many other crops. Dwarf
peas are favored by many gardeners
as they save the labor Of procuring
brush or providing other means of
support. However. even the dwarf
varieties do better if given some sup
port. Pods allowed to lie on the
ground may mildew. There is some
doubt as to which produce the
larger crops, dwarf or tall but the
veidenCe seems to point TO the taller
growing varieties.
It is generally agreed that the
wrinkle seeded varieties are superior
in quality to the smooth-seeded va
rieties, though the latter may be
planted earlier and are harder.

Composing for the Small Space

A compost heap may be started
at any time of year when waste
plant material is readily available,
say the garden specialists of the
Agricultural Research Administra-
ton. They emphasize that leaves.
lawn clippings, weeds and fruit and
vegetable trimmings may be made
into good compost, even If no ma
nure can be obtained, although the
addition of manure insures better
product.
Fundamentally, finished compost
is well-turned Cor spadeO mixture
of soil and decayed plant material,
usually with manure or commercial
fertilizer added. Some authorities
recommend the addition of lime to
the mixture, but this practice may
be definitely bad because it may
cause loss of nitrogen from the fer
menting vegetable matter. Since
unleached wood ashes contain much
lime the recommendation is not to
apply them to the compost heap, but
to the garden soil itself.
Briefly here is a common COM
posting method, simplified to meet
conditions in and about the thou
sands of small gardens that are
proving such factor in war food
production:
Evening star., 1943-09-26

For moderate -sized place start
heap roughly or Z feet square
with a 2 or inch layer Of soil and
follow with 6-inch layer of the
waste, then alternate these layers,
keeping the sides vertical and the
top fiat or dished. Boards or old
wire fencing may be used to confine
the heap. The pile may be built up
to 4 or 5 feet high. Apply water
frequently enough to keep it damp
clear through.
Rotting of compost is speeded by
adding to each layer of plant waste
a few handfuls of a complete fer
tilizer high in nitrogen. or cotton
seed meal or similar nitrogen-con-
tanning plant food The addition of
fertilizer will not be needed where
animal manure is available to add
to the compost mixture. CONNER
cial dried manures may be used in
composing, as well as fresh animal
and poultry manures, but good COM
post can be made with almost any
vegetable matter, nitrogenous ferti-
lizer and soil. Soil serves to alb
sorb the products of decay of the
vegetable matter.

stalks are undesirable. Oak leaves
