the seed pods have matured, cut the

BY VIRGINIA SMITH

Don't let any of the rows in your
garden lie idle. You can still plant
several good summer vegetables. On
the list you will find pole snap beans,
bush and pole lima beans, collards,
sweet corn, cucumbers, eggplant,
pepper and tomato plants, okra,
crowder peas and squash. These
might be called the summer dozen"
Make your selections now and plant
one Of those rows.
A variety of vegetables in your
garden will make it easier for you
TO ciar apoetizing and nutritious
meals this summer. Whatever we do
for ourselves - in planting gardens,
eating homegrown fruits and vege-
tables, putting up food for winter -
frees more foods of the kinds that
can be shipped abroad.
SELECT BREEDING COCKERELS
As the biddies develop into broil-
ers, don't pick out the largest cock
erels to put on the market. This
would leave only the smaller, slow
er developing birds from which to
select breeding males. Select cooke
rels over a period of weeks SO you
may observe the characteristics of
the birds. Mark and hold at least two
or three young cockerels for each
breeding male needed.
Select for rate of growth, rapid
feathering and fleshing quality. OBJ
serve rate of growth from 6 to 10
weeks of age. For rapid feathering,
observe length of primary and Sc
condary feathers in day old chicks,
length of tail feathers at 10 days of
age and degrees of feathering over
the back and thighs at8 to 10 weeks
of age.
For fleshing quantities, select for
development of breast muscles, width
of back and breast, length and
straightness of kneel bone, and a
relatively short shank.
Regardless of other qualities a
breeding cockerel should be vigorous
and healthy. No cockerel that has
ever shown any sign Of weakness
or disease should be saved for
breeding purposes.
CONTROL PASPALUM ON LAWN
Dallis grass and paspalum are two
names for the same grass. It's COM
mon pasture grass and good stock
feed. But, it's a poor lawn grass. It's
the coarse lawn weed that produces
sticky seed that puts black stains
on stockings, dress and trouser legs.
This grass can be controlled in
the lawn by shading the lawn area
for 10 days with tar paper, several
thicknesses of newspaper or old
boards. The bermuda grass will be
bleached, but will not die.
Remember shade the lawn dur
ing hot weather for 10 days - all
light must be excluded.
