County Agent
Tests Soils
And Prescrihes

Soil lacking in necessary min
erals and nutrients has ailments
as does livestock or humans. In
the case of soil the symptoms show
up in the plants, often in disap-
pointing yields.
Today through your county
agents office You can have your
soil tested free. Along with the
results of your tests he will give
You the prescription for the treat
ment of the soil. He is a soil doc
tor and has undergone training in
diagnosing soil troubles.
He is how you can secure a rep
resentative sample of your soil to
make the soil test from. First,
dig v-shaped hole about 8 inches
deep at an average place in the
field or garden and cut out the
loose dirt. Cut half-inch slice
from the smooth SIDE OF THE
HOLE and transfer to a sheet of
paper. Do this in A to 5 spots over
the field. Then mix this soil and
fill clean pint jar.
Samples taken at different times
of year will vary. For example,
samples taken in the spring will
show more available plant foods
than in the fall at the end of the
growing season. If a certain plant
food is shy in the spring it is GER
tain there will not be enough pre-
sent for good plant growth later.
One of the plant foods most Of
ten missing is calcium. This is
quite true in Montgomery Co. To
correct this there has been the ex-
tensive lining program. Plants,
like livestock, need balanced diet.
Too much calcium without other
necessary minerals will not grow
big crops. The soil tests are the
easy way to determine the other
minerals that are lacking.

v. A. Issues
Warning On
G.. /. Loans

Rockville area veterans should
use their best judgment in obtain
ing a CT loan so that it will be
helpful rather than a hindrance in
future years, Mr.. w. E. Murphy,
Veterans Administration Contact
representative for Rockville
warned today. iS
Calling attention to the inflated
real estate market values MIR.
Murphy warned that this condition
together with housing shortages
may cause veterans to become in
volved in real estate transactions
which will be a burden rather than
benefit. The VA office empha-
sized that veterans have until ten
years after the official end of the
war in which to use the loan guar
antee provisions of the CT Bill.
Ex-servicemen and women com
PEELED to purchase real estate at
this time were advised to consider
carefully the following factors in
their investment:
Do not permit yourself to become
obligated beyond your means, and
keep the security and protection
of your family foremost in your
mind at all times.
Do not sign any papers or forms
that have not been completely filled
cut and make sure that you I'M
derstand clearly the details pre-
scented.
Do business through well-estab-l
lished real estate firms in the To-.
cality in which the property is
situated.
If your purchase involves, new
construction, check carefully on the
integrity and ability of the con-
tractor. See that you get specific
plans and specifications outlining
the house to be built for you.
When you use your loan guar
antee benefit, remember that the
government is only lending you its
credit and that, at a future date,
if trouble ensues and claims are
paid under terms of the guaranty,
you are still liable to the govern
ment for whatever loss is sus-
tanned.
Veterans who obtain CT loans
to purchase or build homes are
free to apply to a lender of their
choice for such loans. Contractors
and sellers cannot compel veterans
to negotiate loans through any par.
ticular lender or agency.
For information on CT loans,
veterans should seek the advice of
any reputable bank, building and
loan association, or mortgage lend
ing institution.
For further information on any
veteran benefit administered by
VA, veterans should visit the VA
contact office located in Room 6,
Farmers Bank and Trust Company
Building, Rockville. The office is
open Monday through Friday,
from 8 A. M. to A P. M.

It's Up to Us!

Today it doesn't require genius
of Barney Baruch to look into the
future and see that America faces
great crisis. 1t doesn't require the
wisdom of Solomon to know that if
present conditions continue we are
headed right into deep and shock
ing depression so great that it might
affect the fundamental pattern of
our economy, and hence the en-
tire future of the nation.
We can, if only we would, prevent
serious depression for many
years. But to do so would require
three things we now definitely lack.
These proper things will not likely
be done and the depression will like
ly come. In the midst of a sober
ing depression, however, we might
muster sufficient courage to do the
right things and thereby shorten its
duration.
What II 1t Comes?
I want to outline those necessary
Browning chief. [volume] (Browning, Mont.) 1941-1953, 1947-07-18

steps Which could prevent depres-
sion it taken now, and which would
shorten a depression if taken after
it is upon us. In the first place,
there is required a brand of bold,
courageous, fortnight, non-political
executive leadership beyond any,
thing Washington seems likely to
display.
In the second place, it would ne
cessitate lot of new, daring, ven
turesome, resourceful industrial ac-
tivity, which because of unfavorable
tax rates, industrial strife, and gen.
eral want of vision, we seldom see.
In the third place, it would require
from labor leaders in general a
very genuine, honest, sincere, and
effective effort to remove all prac-
tees and policies that hinder maxi
mum production per man-hour, and
that needlessly add to the cost of
goods, construction, and so on, of
which we likewise see but little.
Toward Real Raises
These three steps would bring
about three conditions necessary if
we are to prevent depression, un-
employment. and mediocrity. One
of the first things this formula
would lead to would be real under
standing and cooperation between
industry and labor. which is an es-
sential to the continued welfare of
this nation. We have not fooled
ourselves into the foolish belief that
Browning chief. [volume] (Browning, Mont.) 1941-1953, 1947-07-18
PIONEER AMERICANS ATE WITH
KNIVES INSTEAD OF Forks,

these great segmcncs OF industry
must ever be at cross purposes.
In the second place, these things
would lead to an increase of at least
90 per cent in actual amount of
goods produced without increases in
labor costs. At the same time there
would be no decrease in rate of
wages earned. This would rapidly
increase the effectiveness of COM
petition and would bring cuts in
prices ranging from 20 to Is per
cent, thus giving a real raise in
standards of living for the entire
public, labor as well as others.
A Simple Formula
In the third place, these lower
prices would increase demand for
our goods. American industry has,
more nearly than that Of any 9TH
er nation, reached the mass mar
kets. Our industry has produced
goods that make the least of us
veritable kings. And the end of this
is nowhere in sight.
This advice sounds extremely
simple, and it is just that sim
plicity that makes the formula
worthy. This simple formula for
prosperity of the entire nation re-
quires only honest, intelligent, m-
selfish, courageous citizenship and
leadership. May God raise up the
leadership for the sake of this ma
ton, cur posterity, and the world.
May We, individually, exercise
the intelligent citizenship the days
ahead will require.

joyed his evening glass of beer,
and left all the messy kitchenwork
to Dixie. But he kind of likes her
company and she in turn GER
tainly appreciates his help.

inner leaves are left TO grow. The
same is true Of spinach; the tender new
leaves are as good raw as cooked when
chopped and served with oil and vine-
gar dressing. Or, treat them the same
as "wi1ted lettuce" by pouring over
them mixture of hot bacon fat, vine
gar, and bits of cooked bacon. To vary
the flavor Of these green's, add small
amount of peppergrass. The frilled
curly foliage of this upland cress is as
easy to grow as lettuce.
For long season green's swiss chard
is a winner. No leafy vegetable stands
hot weather better. The outer leaves
should be kept picked, the inner ones
left to continue growing, and the re-
suit will be tender, brittle stalks and
leaves for long time.

green's, beet, mustard, and turnip are
increasingly popular. Like all vege-
tables they are best when young. Mus
tard and turnip particularly should be
used for greens only in the early stages.
The tops of mustard and turnip COM
bined are appetizing-a favorite of
grandmother's day.
BY sowing seed of kale in spring or
summer in the North and August to
October in the South, fresh greens can
be picked from the garden even after
the coming Of frost and light snow.
In fact, some frost improves the tex
ture and flavor Of kale, making it a
real treat for late autumn and winter
meals. Dwarf Curled Kale Is one OF
the best varieties for home gardens.
