The ssSun's" Poem
For the Week
IT'S ALL BECAUSE OF YOU

ITS ALL BECAUSE OF YOU
(By Leonard HeSter)
You sympathized with me when I
was in despair;
In my mind I didn't know what to
do.
My hope was lifted when I didn't
care,
And otis all because Of you.
You showed me how to trust lin
God;
Gave me strength and courage,
too.
My ideas are now set on the high
est star,
And 'it's all because of you."
You gave me your love which set
my heart aglow,
It guided me with a beam that
was true.
It gives me good deeds to sow as
I go,
And "it's all because of you."
You have set me on the road to
success;
How can I give you all the credit
you're due?
BY loving you will keep me at my
best,
And "it's all because Of you."

Communist Removed
From AFL Convention

Atlantic City, N. IA man
,who began distribution of The
Daily Worker to delegates at the
State Federation of Labor's 68th
annual convention was escorted
out of the Ambassador Hotel
here by five convention dele
gates.
'We'n have no Communist lit
erature at this convention" de-
clared President Louis p. Mar
ciante.
Shortly after this incident State
Labor Commissioner Harry G.
Harper told the delegates that
any "maior attempt" to destroy
unionization would be defeated
because the fate of labor is the
ultimate fate Of the Nation"
Harper spoke after Marciante
told the convention antilabor leg
islation would lead to Marxism
and would be resisted vigorously
by the AFL at every turn.
Harper said:
"Unionization is here to stay,
and any major legislative attempt
to destroy it-alth0ugh I doubt
that any such attempts will be
made-will be defeated.
1.-THE fate of labor is the fate
of industry and the ultimate fate
of the Nation ITSELF"
The labor commissioner said
the public must be educated "to
realize there is q common ground
on which labor and industry can
meet"

Starting Date Depends Upon
Outcome OfClose Flag Race

Ter and representatives of first
division clubs in the National
League apparently considered the
New York Yankees a cinch to
cop the American League pen
nant, because they announced
the following two schedules OF
games for the diamond classic:
The series will begin Sept.
80 if New York in the American
League and Brooklyn IN the
National emerge as pennant Win
ners. There will be no open
dates between games in Yankee
Stadium and Brooklyn's Ebbets
Field.
The series will get underway
Wednesday Oct. l if the Yam
KEGS and the St. Louis Cardinals
win in their respective circuits.
In event the World Champion
Cardinals win their second
straight pennant, games Will be
played in Yankee Stadium Oct.
l and 2. Oct. 3 will be an open
date to permit the teams to travel
to St. Louis for the third, fourth
and fifth games Oct. 4, 5 and 6.
Should the series go the full
route, Oct. 7 would be an open
date to permit the teams to re-
turn to New York for the final
two games, Oct. 8 and g.
Should Brooklyn be the Ma
tional League contender, the
first two games will be played
in Yankee Stadium, the next
three on Ebbets Field and the

|Ryegrass, Lespedeza
Can Be Planted in
New Lawns Now
By Ted c. Mourer
last OF O. Series.)

Much as you may desire laSh
and lovely lawn, remember that you
can't build 1t overnight. This Is par
ticularly true in the climate Of
Washington and its suburbs. Here.
spring seeding Of Kentucky blue
grass usually results in disappoint-
ment. So If you must seed = lawn
in the spring, 1t is better to bide
your time and play safe by starting
your lawn with Italian ryegress.
But, whatever you do this spring, 1t
is now high time that you get
started.
What have you done about your
lime and fertilizer? If we had plenty
of time it would be better to put the
lime into the soil several weeks be-
fore applying the fertilizer. But now
that the season is too far advanced
for us to wait month. we are
forced to put them on at the same
time. Although this is slightly less
effective than the separate applica-
tions, you can still get good results.
1t also saves you one week end OF
hard work. You put the lime on at
the rate of 100 pounds per 1000
square feet of lawn surface. Spread
it evenly and follow with an appli-
cation of 5-10-5 or some closely SIM
liar fertilizer at the rate of about so
pounds to 1000 square feet.
Pounds of Seed to 1000 Feet.
Finally, you put on the seed. For
this time of the year your best bet
will be Italian ryegrass and perhaps
a little Korean lespedeza. That will
give you spring. and summer lawn
and you can replace it with your
more permanent Kentucky bluegrass
mixture in the fall. You can safely
seed the ryegrass at the rate of five
or six pounds per 1000 square feet.
A word of warning-dont shop for
cheap seed, but for the best seed you
can find. BY best is meant purity,
high termination and known variety.
The first two you get on the analysis
bag. The third is the reputation of
the firm selling the seed. First. look
at the tag for the name of the seed,
then the purity, termination, weed
seed, inert matter and other crop
seeds. It is impossible and unneces-
sary to 60 into great detail to make
you an experienced seed buyer. Just
read the tag and ask questions about
it until you are satisfied. Go to sew
eral different places or do this as q
side line when on other shopping
trips. You may get some other sug-
igestions, but, remember, you want
only Italian ryegrass right now, and
perhaps a little Korean lespedeza.
Now the fertilizer, lime and seed
are ready. Don't work the soils just
after rain or when the topsoil is
wet and sticky. 1t should "crumble'
easily under the chopping Better
wait for another week end rather
than work 1t wet.
Chop Seed Into Soil.
Now you are ready for the strong
arm work. The garden or potato
-four tineO rake is used to chop the
fertilizer and seed into the top
quarter inch to half inch of soil. You
will work up a natural appetite even
on a small lawn. If you do 1t right
you may learn about some muscles
you had almost forgotten.
Much depends on how hard the

ing. Seeds Of the ANIMALS need tc
be sown in April and May to pro-
vide color in June or July. However
1t is possible to start them In mats
or pots and the plants will be nearly
ready to flower when transplanted
to the beds at the beach.
Most of the familiar sun-lovinf
flowers and shrubs which we nor
mally have in our gardens in this
area will do well along the bay
Some, such as the hardy lilies, do
better near the water. The major
problem is to choose plants which
flower during the summer but
require the minimum Of care during
the months when the cottage Is
closed. This requirement puts the
emphasis largely on the ANIMALS
and perhaps. on such summer
Towering bulbs as the gladiolus,
dahlias and cannas, which must
have sunlight for = goodH portion
of each day.
Growth in Low Area.
Occasionally the beach property
has an area of low-lying land that
is almost swampy. Such land should
not be classed as waste land for
there are a number Of shrubs and
flowers which thrive in 1t. The
Winterberry Qlex verticillata), a
native holly, as well as the English,
Chinese and American hollies, bay
berry, azaleas, rhododendrons, an
dromeda, ETC., do especially well in
the rich moist soils so commonly
found along the bay shore. OF the
summer-fiowering perennials the
Japanese and Louisiana iris, hi
discus, the hardy asters (fall
fiowering), Seaside goldenrod,
Stokes aster (Aster stokesia), will
thrive in a soil that is well supplied
with subsurface moisture, providing
it is not highly salty.
Even where the land is swampy a
number Of flowers can be depended
upon, but only few in salt water,
such as sea lavender, Scotch lovage
and the salt marsh aster Easter
tenuifolius). In the less salty sit
uations the common hibiscus, the
marsh rose-gentian and some OF the
native eastern perennial asters often
thrive and give color to such spots,
In fact, there are very few places
along the bay that can not be
readily made attractive. This may
necessitate providing a windbreak
or the enrichment of sandy soil
For most situations, however, 1t
means only the planting Of suitable
kinds in each type Of soil and
moisture. A little care such as we
normally give our flower borders In
the spring and providing q wind
break for the winter Is not too much
for most cottage owners, but that
Is about all 1t takes to dress up
the place and make 1t attractive

Tobacco Sales
Begin tuesday;
100000 Lbs.
by james BirchfieId

Southern Maryland tobacco grow
ers will begin this week the sale Of
their 1916 crop, estimated to be
slightly more than 420o0 900 pounds.
Sales will begin Tuesday at ware
houses at La Plata, Waldorf and
Hughesville, and the following day
ut Upper Marlboro.
State tobacco marketing experts
and economists at the Uni1ersity
Maryland are confident that prices
for type 80, the tobacco used in
cigarette blends because of its burn
Ing qualities, would be strong.
They said Britain's plans to raise
the import duty on tobacco leaf SO
per cent should not affect prices to
Maryland growers. Little Maryland
leaf has been exported and there has
been an increasing local demand
for the Maryland type to keep pace
with the increase in cigarette pro-
duction.
May Receive $4,000, 600 More.
An oficial Of the Maryland To-
bacco Growers Association predict
ed growers will be paid as much as
$4,000, 900 more than last year
This prediction was based on a So
cent average price this year, COM
pared to the 56-cent average for
last years short crop of about 49,
100000 pounds.
Growers, who last week were pre-
pairing their tobacco for the open
ing sales, estimated that high per-
centage of this years offerings will
be Of the higher grades.
j. w. Roberts, Landover grower,
estimated, for example, that ap-
proximately so per cent of his TO-
0oo-pound crop is of the prime
grades.
AS growers were readying last
years crop for sale, plans were un-
derway to increase acreages for the
crop that will be marketed in 1s48.
The quota has been boosted from
the $4,000 acres planted last year
to from $4,000 to $1,000 this season.
States Leaf In Demand.
W. B. Posey, extension tobacco
specialist, explained that production
Of Maryland type 80 has not kept
pace with the greatly expanded
production of cigarettes.
MARYLAND leaf,' he said, "once
amounted to per cent of the blend
Of popular cigarettes. This has
dropped to 2 per cent In some ciga-
rettes, and others now do not use
any Maryland leaf"
While Britain's hike in tobacco
duties may not affect Maryland
prices, officials fin the Department
of Agriculture indicated that a re-
duction IN British buying could be
expected to affect on the price of
the the htus.eurea t1,s crop-the major ex-
Last January the department au-
thor1zed f1ue-cured growers to in
crease production 10 per cent, and
1t is too late to recind this authori-
zation since many farmers already
have plantd their crop.
Oficials said that If the loss OF
exports, estimated to amount to Be-
tween 30,000,00e and $4,000, 900
pounds year, results in excessive
stocks. the department would be
forced to reduce production and
marketing quotas in 1e4S.
A downward adjustment in prices,
1t was said, might lead to increased
purchases by other countries. At
any rate, officials explained, farm
ers are protected from a sharp
price drop since the farm support
program guarantees growers not
less than 30 per cent OF parity.
