NEW YORK - (P) - Britain's
baby population is soaring. More
children were born in Britain last
year than in any year since 1928,
British Information Service re-
ports, and the mortality rate was

under one year died for every 1000
births; it was 46 in 1945 and 52.S

babies, II less died at birth last
year than pre-war. Little more
than Ii third of the pre-war num-
Der of mothers died in childbirth.
The birth rate-19.1 per 1000 of
the pOpulation-was higher thar
the last pre-war year by four pei

the University of Delaware, attend
these meetings.
Mr.. Brasher stressed the advan-
tages of the cultural practices list
ed below and cited the financial re-
turns that might, under normal
conditions, be expected If these
practices were followed in cOnjunc-
ton with a program for the control
of diseases and insects:
Cultural Practice No. l. Select
good soil, use starter solution plus
1900 pounds of a 5-10-10 fertilizer
or its equivalent plOwed down. Set
plants early (nOt later than May 10
or 15) spaced 4 TT. by 3 ft. Grade the
plants, setting only large sturdy
ones, free from disease and injury.
Practice regular and prompt pick
ing during the harvest season.
Cultural Practice No ,. The
same as above plus the use of 800
pounds of a 10-0-20 fertilizer used
as a side-dressing when a heavy set
of tomatoes is on the plant.
DR.. Heuberger reviewed the diff
ficulties experienced last year with
Late Blight of tomatoes and recon-
mended that growers plan and fol-
low a definite program of spraying
or busting.
He has contacts up and down the
coast by which he will be able to
keep in touch with the progress of
the late blight up the coast and will
issue warnings to the growers
through the County Agents. by news
articles, and over the radio, should
the blight come this far north. He
felt that a program of spraying or
busting regardless of the presence
of the blight would be excellent
crop insurance.
He recommended the use of the
new organic materials alone or in
alternating use with the copper
funSacides. The use of these mate
! rials whether the late blight is
present or not will aid very greatly
the control of early blight and
anthracnOSe.
Mr.. MacCreary cautioned tomato
growers on the use of DDT stating
that in the west it had been use(
but in Florida its use has caused
some reduction in yield. He recon-
mended the use of calcium arse
mates and cryOlite-talc dust for The
fruit worm; rOtenOne duStS for the

The other morning my small son,
Jim - a delighted grin on his face
- handed me the paper. 1t was
opened to an article stating that
March is to be National Bread
and Gravy Month. Well, knowing
Jim's fondness for this dish, and
his reason for showing me the ar
ticle, / promised to serve it that
night - and often during Spring.
Good, old fashioned bread and
gravy has always been a favorite
meal at our house the entire
family relishes the good fresh
bread topped with rich brown
gravy. And besides being a nu-
tritious dish, it's economical - an
excellent way to use leftover slices
of bread. l always wrap my bread
carefully in waxed paper - so it's
perfectly fresh and appetizing>
when needed.
Many of my friends have asked
me for my gravy recipe and /
thought you might like it. George
