Maryland Farmers
Stress Beef, Pork

Maryland farmers this year will
be asked to raise more beef and
pork and less poultry, according to
Joseph H. Blandford, State Produc-
ton and Marketing Administration
director.
In announcing revised production
goals for the State, Mr.. Blandford
said increased. acreages have been
suggested for corn, wheat, rye, sweet
potatoes, tomatoes for processing,
lima beans and Strawberries. De-
creases have been suggested for
early Irish potatoes, sweet corn for
processing, snap beans for process
ing, cucumbers for pickles, canta-
loupes and watermellons.
He said milk cow numbers are
expected to be about the same as
last year, and no further increase
in broiler production is recommend
ed. The State goals, he said, are in
line with national crop goals.

lively late and continues through
out the summer or until cut down

There are both single and double
varieties. The doubles, when fully
expanded, resembling a fully blown
rose. There are few flowers so easy
to grow and they are useful as an
edging plant, to ramble over the
rockery, and when sown in mass
produce a dazzling effect. The
plant self-sows, with some doubles
reverting to the single type. It Is
easy to fill bare spots by taking
cuttings and simply inserting them
in the soil, where they take root.

Public Control Over Forests
Held Vital by Forestry Chief

Public control over Americas for
est lands was urged last week by
Lyle F. Watts, chief Of the Forest
Service, as vital to the successful
development of an effective forest
conservation program.
In a report to Secretary OF Agri-
culture Anderson, Mr.. Watts said a
realistic Nation wide program,
aimed at keeping the country's for
est lands productive should include
fire protection measures for 1884,
600 900 acres of forests now without
lit; increased tree planting to bring
into production millions of nom
producing acres of woodland; a re-
duction of waste by more complete
utilization of lumber harvested and
ending destructive cutting practices
with the encouragement of good for
est management.
Not Related to Isms.'
Mr.. Watts declared the proposed
control program was in mo way
akin to RECOMMENDATION, socialism OF
dictatorship, but was vital to a sue
cessful conservation program"
Commenting on the forestry
chiefs report, Secretary of Agri-
culture Anderson said that In order
to assure an ample supply Of timber
products for estimated needs under
conditions of full employment and
to provide adequately for national
security, new uses Of wood and ex-
port needs, the United States should
double its present rate of saw timber
growth.
"Since this will require several
decades" the secretary said, "the
Nation ought to start the job at
once"
Evidence of forest depletion today,

Mr.. Watts said, is to be found In
every part of the country. He added
that the scarcity of good timber will
continue to limit production despite
increased manpower, equipment and
sawmin capacity.
cat present." he said, tive are
overdrawing our saw-timber bank
account by more than 18, 900, 000, 600
board feet a year. The Nation Is be-
coming increasingly dependent on
second growth stands, but in the
main these are not being handled SO
as to produce the quality and kind
of timber needed for many uses"
Mr.. Watts said that in addition to
public control program, Federal aid
should be extended to encourage
better management on private for
est lands, and the inclusion through
public ownership of certain addl-
tional lands in national, State and
community forests.
Land Types Listed.
He listed the types Of lands that
should be purchased, managed and
protected by public agencies as those
where the public values are OF high
Importance because Of acute prob
LENS of watershed protection, and
those not suited to permanent pri-
Eyate development because of scanty
rainfall, poor soil, inaccessibility or
deterioration caused by unwise cut
ting or by fire.
OF the 10000, 900 acres Of national
forest lands suitable for livestock
grazing, Mr.. Watts said, about 26,-
GOO 900 acres are in need Of remedial
action. This would include adjust
ments in livestock numbers and bet
ter handling of livestock, more
fences and water developments.

Farmers Get Less
For Products, But
Pay Higher Prices

American farmers received lower
prices for most commodities last
month In the face Of increases
in rural living costs which pushed
the parity index to another high, the
Bureau of Agricultural Economics
reports.
The bureau said the index Of
prices received by farmers dropped
points to $50 per cent Of its 1909
IA average, or a decrease Of IN
per cent. Truck crops and soybeans
were the principal exception to the
generally lower prices.
At the same time, the bureau said
continued increases In rural living
costs pushed the parity index to
another new high.
With this index January Is at 227
per cent Of its 1904 average, the
bureau recorded ! per cent gain
over December and a % per cent in
crease over year ago in the prices
paid by farmers for all commodities
used for living and production. The
bureau said prices paid now are
per cent above their 1919-29 average
and 50 per cent above their 1934-3s
average.
The bureau said prices received
for livestock and livestock products
averaged 281 per cent of the 1909 Il
level, a decrease of IS points from q
month ago. This decrease resulted
primarily from sharply lower prices
for poultry and eggs and dairy
products, together with a 5-point
drop in the meat animal index.
The index of dairy product prices
the bureau said, was 292 per cent Of
the 1909-14 level. This was 2t
points less than a month ago, but IS
points above the January, 1916 level
With the exception of feed prices
which declined 4 per cent last
month, the bureau said all groups Of
commodities bought by farmers were
steady to higher on January is thar
q month earlier. Price advances fol
clothing, building materials anc
household supplies led the upturns
during the month, the bureau said.

In time when American agricul-
ture Is expanding the greater part
of its energy on conserving the
Nations soil and on scientific meth
DDS to control pests and diseases
that affect plants and animals, 1t
may be wise to listen to one OF
Englands important teachers OF
agriculture.
Sir Albert Howard, an honorary
fellow Of the Imperial College OF
Science, and formerly director OF
the Institute of Plant Industry at
Indore and agricultural adviser to
states In Central India and Raj
putana, has spent lifetime In the
study of soils and their relation TO
plant and animal health. In book,
'"The Soil and HEALTH" published
recently in this country by the
Devin-Adair Co., he tells in simple
language the conclusions he has
drawn from this study.
Life Returns to Soil.
In general, Sir Albert regards the
earth's green carpet as the sole
source of food consumed by livestock
and mankind. This green carpet is
natures method of creating humus,
or of returning to the soil that
which has been removed from it by
plant and animal life. When meth
DDS of agriculture are adopted that
are not in accordance with natures
iaw of return, disease follows.
Sir A1bert describes the methods
nature uses in manufacturing hui
mus, and points how man can speed
the process by composing all ami
NAL and vegetable wastes and re-
turning the organic matter to the
soil. The results he has achieved
in controlling plant and animal
diseases through the use OF humus
are sometimes startling.
For example-hoof and mouth dis
ease Of cattle has long been a
scourge of the cattle industry, and
Is now threatening our relations
with Mexico. This disease appeared
In India while Sir Albert was con-
Quoting experiments at Indore.
He believed that cattle, kept In
good condition by feed produced on
soil that was kept in organic bal
ance, would be able to resist attacks
of the disease. At Indore, his cattle
we're allowed to come in contact
with diseased cattle, but did not
contract the hoof and mouth dis
ease.
Experiments in Various Crops.
Other experiments likewise bare
out the Howard theories. He has
been able to grow tobacco and ex-
pose it to the virus diseases that
attack that crop with no i'll effects.
And in the garden at his home in

Experienced gardeners LOOK over
their bulbs and tubers every two or
three weeks to make certain that
they are keeping ell-plImp. sound
land without sign Of decay or disease.
Such B program Of inspection Is .
desirable practice, even though we
store our dormant flower and veg
etable roots under the most salts
factory conditions possible. Our
modern warm houses seldom have
storage space with the desired low
Temperatures Or the necessary hui
nudity. 70 offset this, we must
lstore them In sand, peatmoss, saw
dust or other materials which have
some insulating value and moisture
holding capacity to prevent their
drying out.
These materials in which we store
our bulbs each have their advan-
tages and disadvantages. None is
perfect. Il is wise, therefore, to ex-
anime each lot Of bulbs or roots at
frequent intervals rather than to
wait until spring to uncover bulbs
which have succumbed to dry rot,

Keep Storage Safe

One Of the best ways to prevent
fires is to clear out rubbish regu-
larry from cellars, attics, closets and
garages. Rubbish should be stored
only in metal containers until it is
disposed Of permanently.

| Keep Vegetables Msist.
Most gardeners 60 to their stored

condition. Too often We note that
there is an increasing degree OF
lshriveling. This can be corrected
lin peat moss or sand. Water may
be added to keep the storage mate

Occasionally we will ind that the

carrots, beets, satisfy, ETC., this Is
hard to correct, assuming that they
are already In the coolest storage
space available. However. 1t Is stlg-
gested that an upstairs closet Is
sometimes cooler than the basement,
or perhaps the garage may be used
except during periods when freezing
L is probable. If 1t is impossible to
find space indoors that is cool
enough for the satisfactory storage
OF vegetables. an out-of-doors pit
should be built for the 1947 crop.
Rub on Potato Sprouts.
Potatoes are very susceptible to
sprouting unless stored In cool
situation. Those that are being
stored for table use can be "sprout-
ed" that is, removing the sprouts by
hand. They will then remain In
useable condition for some time.
"Sprouting" stops the loss Of mois-
ture due to the growth Of the
sprouts and should be done at the
first signs Of this growth.
The control of sprouting on seed
stock, however, Is very difncult and
unless checked at the beginning, Is
apt to result in the loss of the tubers.
In most cases the only satisfactory
method is to store in place where
the temperature is low enough to
prevent sprouting-below so degrees.
Fortunately, most gardeners do not
find it desirable to save planting
stock, but depend upon supply houses
who are able to provide good seed
potatoes at the proper season. Home
grown seed usually deteriorates be-
cause of disease and much higher
yields are obtained from the "im-
ported" seed.
j Those who have large stocks In
storage soon takes steps to provide
satisfactory space in which to keep
them.
j No matter what you have stored
the only safe rule is to check and
lrecheck,
