NEW INN, OCl. III VI
Stocks generally backed into
losing territory Tuesday although a
number of market leaders re-
sisted the trend and finished in the
plus column.
Brokers attributed timid selling
the-ticker tape frequently loafed-
partly to apprehension over grow
ing labor disputes, including a
threatened new coal strike, the
union move in the automotive field
and worries over possible bust
ness letdown in the coming months.

the administration would not shelve
all wage controls. Shortage of
steel scrap apparently chilled most
stocks in this section.

outright or killed by the drying of
the soil. Areas of the garden that
are lying fallow in the spring for
late crops such as tomatoes and
squash should be cultivated regular
ly also. as this kills several crops of
sprouting weeds in the surface soil,
and leaves fewer to sprout later in
the summer when cultivation in the
rows will be more difficult By this
means, weeds can be kept from grow
ing large, crowding the crop plants
and competing with them for mois-
turc.
A rake or hoe can be used well for
weed control when weeds are small.
A wheel hoe with blade which slides
along just under the soil surface cut
ting off all weeds and breaking up
shallow layer of soil is about the
most effective tool for weed killing,
in any but very small garden. Tools
with several tines which dig deep in
to the soil do moro damage than good
as they tear up the roots of the crop
plants.

THE CHICAGO STAR is
very good paper in some respects

The best thing that I found
about the Star regardless of ideas
they put forth by them were the
Cartoons, they were well drawn,
easy to understand, and well or
gained when in series, you will
do well to have your cartoonistS
draw more cartoons per issue.
The domestic and local stories
were also very good, they had
the flavor of eyewitness accounts
and were very easy to read, of
these the best was in my opinion

But it has also law which
