Damage TO Florida Vegetables By
Hurricane May Be 100 Per Cent

Damage to Florida vegetables by
the recent hurricane may be 100 per
cent, according to the following
appearing in a Kansas City produce
mems trade journal received by a
Nogales tomatero:
jacksonville, Fla, Oct. 2O-Or-
lando proper had winds up to 1O8
miles an hour and early estimates
Thursday night placed property
damage in the city at $4,000, 900.
About IL years ago a hurricane
which reached 60 miles per hour at
Orlando, did heavy damage to citrus
in the district and south in the
ridge.
Bradenton reports heavy damage
to vegetables, particularly tomatoes,
but an analysis of the situation in
dicates damage to vegetables may
be 100 per cent. At Sanford early
Thursday celery fields already were
under water and damage is certain
Nogales international., 1944-11-03

to be heavy, if not actually COM
plete. Final surveys cannot be made
yet.
Rains had been falling in south
Florida for many days before the
hurricane arrived. Fort Pierce for
instance had four inches of rain last
Sunday and Monday and tomatoes
there are believed heavily damaged.
Here at Jacksonville it is impos-
sible Thursday night to reach any
points to the south by telephone.
Estimates of 60 per cent damage
to Florida grapefruit and up to IS
per cent on oranges already have
been made by some shippers.
Reliable sources say they are con-
vinced vegetable damage will run
nearly 100 per cent.

Notebook
lettings

The continued rain and cool
weather has seriously delayed gar
den work, although it has brought
an unusually fine display of early
spring Towering plants. The daffo-
dis have been splendid, the flowers
remaining in good condition much
longer than usual. Tulips, hya-
cinths and the towering shrubs that
escaped freeze injury have been
most colorful.
y-planted peas, radishes,
lettuce and beetS are making
excellent gro,Dth. Those garden
erS 1D1ao did not haze their
ground spnded early haze had
% verus little, opportunity to, get
their planting started. There is (
Uery little that can be done about
1t, except, perhaps, to make reso-
lutions about tall spading.

1t is practical to lift young straw
berry plants at this season and
transplant them to new bed. Take
plenty Of soil so as not to disturb
the roots. Most growers remove
the flower stems from such plants,
but with good culture they may be
allowed to produce fruit the first
season. 1t is not wise, however, to
let fruit develop on newly set out
purchased (dormant) plants.

j. Morton Franklin, supervisor

j. Morton Franklin, supervisor,
says:
The use of small amount of
commercial fertilizer in the rows
where seeds are to be planted will
be helpful to most crops. The
poorer the soil, the more definite
will be the benefit obtained. It
should be remembered, however.
that only very light amount of
fertilizer should be used and that the
fertilizer should be well mixed with
the soil before the seeds are put in.
If the fertilizer Is not well mixed
1t is very liable to ruin the young
roots as they start out of the seeds
and so prevent the development of
plants. This small amount of fer
tilizer well mixed with the soil will
provide readily available plant food
with which the young plants can get
off to a good start. This will help
to compensate for the late planting
due to our very wet spring.
Where seeds have already been
planted without this row fertilizing
it will be we'll to place thin band
OF fertilizer in a shallow trench
some two inches to one side of the
row and cover with soil. In setting
cabbages, broccoli or other early
plants, a similar boost Is given to
the young plants by using a weak
solution Of fertilizer at the time of
planting, to water the plants In"
This is known as a starter solu-
tion," and may be made by using a
tablespoon full of 5-10-5 (Victory
Garden fertilizer) or Miller's VHPF
to one gallon of water

Local bridge players were unable
to participate in the Vanderbilt Cup
team of four tournament which was
held last week in New York, but as
| it was the classic event of the bridge
calendar of the year, they closely
followed the game. 1t was a knock
out match with 26 teams entered
at the start. The final winners were
the players on the foursome COM
prising Mrs. A. M. Sobel, B. j.
Becker of New, York and Charles
Goren and Sidney Silodor of Phila-
delphia. They achieved a lead of
1,120 points over the all-New York

that any member of the victorious
team has ever won the Vanderbilt
Cup and Mrs. Sobel is the first
woman to be winner since 1880.

was one of the winning foursome.
The winning team this year led
all the way, but its margin was
somewhat reduced in the last quar-

On nGrowing
Soybeans
By the Master Gardener.

Edible soybeans are new crop
in the garden and a new expert
ence in eating to many, but 7 be-
lieve the Victory gardener will like
to try a few, because they can be
used green or they may be dried
and stored.
Do not plant until the soil is
warm and danger of frost is past,
as they are tender. This would be
about mid-May, late May or early
June in many sections.
For best results be sure to inocu-
late seed with Nitragin or some
other nodule- forming bacteria be-
fore planting.
Culture is much like lima beans.
Space farther apart in row than
other types of beans, because the
pods require ample sun and air to
mature properly.
Do not work among soybean
plants while they are wet with dew
or on damp days.
Green beans must be hulled before
using. To shell: Wash the pods,
drop in boiling water and boil for
Iabout 10 minutes. Then drain.
Beans can then be pressed out OF
the pods.
Where harvested for use as dried
beans 1t usually takes about 100
days to mature. The leaves will
turn yellow and fall off and pods
will turn brown. Where only few
beans are grown, to free from pods
put the pods In sack after picking
and beat the sack until the beans
are free of the pods. Be sure the
beans are really dry before storing.
