Science of Hydroponics
Speeds Victory Gardens

Old Mother Nature has been stream
lined this spring to help win the food
war on the home front.
With a recent discovery in the sci
ence of growing vegetables in a prep
aration containing all the necessary
nutrient elements, Victory gardeners
may now shorten natures growing
eason by as much as 30 days.
Known as hydroponics, this science
has been perfected to a point whereby
gardeners can now get a head start in
growing their cabbage, lettuce, green
peppers and other vegetables merely
by adding water to a specially-pre-
pared ~soilless plant ball containing
seeds, spagnum moss, vitamins and
plant food. With no muss and a min
imum of care, as many as so vegetable
slips can be grown from one ball with
out the necessity of using FLATS"
This new development is the result
of years of experiment on the part Of
a Barryton, Mich, organization which
has in the past devised similar meth
DDS of raising flowers.
Plant balls are approximately three
inches in diameter, which swell to
nearly six inches when noistened.
They should be placed in a warm spot
preferably a window sill, watered once
a day to keep moist not saturated.
The seeds contained IN each transplant
ball begin to grow within seven to ten
days, reaching sufficient maturity to
be transplanted to the garden within
30 days.
When ready for the outdoor garden,
each slip should be carefully sepa-
rated from the moss and transplanted
to the garden, where It will grow and
produce vegetables through the season.

On Schedule

ION all important categories in
the Presidents (war production)
program we are up to and ahead of
schedule"
With these words, Wal Production
Board Chairman Donald Nelson de-
scribed the nations booming indus
trial effort. Only in the matter of
airplanes did he speak with reserva-
ton, declaring the situation was one
with emphasis now placed on quality
rather than quantity.
Changing needs Of the services
may necessitate some alterations in
production plans, Nelson said, echo
ing reports that revised schedules
have slowed the tempo of some
plants while increasing it in others.
Tank production has been chopped,
Nelson revealed, since Great Britain
and Russia have reduced their esti-
mates Of their needs.

HOSPITAL SHIP:

With its red cross sign brightly

Suddenly a terrific explosion shook

RECIPROCAL TRADE:
RenenuaL Fought

Renewal Of President Roosevelt's
authority to negotiate reciprocal
trade treaties with foreign countries
was the subject of heated debate in
congress, with successful efforts to
limit the life Of the Presidents pow
er to two years.
Claimed as a great contribution to
stable international relations by its
advocates. and opposed as a dan
gerous threat to u tariff system by
its foes, the Reciprocal Trade act
passed through the house only after
fierce debate and a two-year limita-
ton on its existence.
Inspired by Secretary Of State
Corden Hull, administration forces
commended that renewal Of the act
now was necessary to III the
world that we were prepared to par
ticipate in the revival of interna-
tional commerce and stabilize en-
ployment and marketing in other
countries.
Foes of the act said it had failed
to avert war since its creation in
1894. They tried to limit its opera
tons by offering amendments which
would allow congress to review
treaties; permit domestic producers
to testify against provisions Of any
treaty. and prevent the importation
Of products when they sold for less
than the American cost Of produc-
ton,

GERMANY:
Ruhr Flooded

Flying at an altitude of 100 feet,
four = engined British Lancasters
dropped heavy mines in the huge
reservoirs Of the Elder and Moline
dams in northwestern Germany.
Then British airmen watched the
mines swirl into the dams sluices,
explode and break open big breaches
through which the pent-up waters
roared to deluge the Ruhr and Wes-
e valleys below.
Hydro-electric stations throughout
the area were crippled by the rising
flood waters; traffic on the vital Nit
LELAND canal, which unites all of
Germany's river transportation, was
disrupted, and the important indus
trial city of Kassel and others be-
yond were inundated.
Reports reaching Switzerland said
at least 1000 people had been killed
and 120, 900 made homeless by the
torrents. The German high COM
mand admitted property damage
and casualties were very high as
walls Of water rushed through pop
ulated districts"
