When a mans wife comes from
Tennessee and likes to live in the
country. there's nothing to do but
buy q farm.
That's how. Harry ]. o'Meara,
Arlington tile contractor, solved his
problem. Mr.. O'Meara bought 422-
acre farm in Loudoun County six
years ago, remodeled shack
to live in while building materials
were tight, bought up all the farm
equipment he could find against the
day when he would seriously begin
farming operations-and waited.
Now things are beginning to pop
out on the Circle M" farm. A new
house is going up and should be
ready for the O'Mearas to move into
by July T. And the farm is being
planned by j. r. Lintner, former
Loudoun County farm agent who
became q farm consultant after he
retired last year.
BY another year Mr.. OMeara
hopes to have two accomplishments
to his credit-a new house for his
family and a producing livestock
farm.
Mr.. OMeara has several prob
lens yet to solve. One concerns
some low-lying fields that need to
be drained. This probably means
that bitches will have to be cleaned
out and subSoiler put to work to

Milking is a contemplative chore.
Farmers who milk by hand will
tell you their heaviest thinking is
done morning and evening at milk
ing time. 1t is then they plan their
crops or just sit musing to the
rhythm of milk hitting the bottom
of the pail.
The first few times I found milk
ing more than meditation. 1t re-
quired extreme concentration to get
even limited results.
But I am getting the rhythm now
which gives me a chance during the
IS minutes or so of milking. to plan
all the things we would like to do
with our 40 Virginia acres, but
which we know we may never ac-
complish.
The early morning, when the ris-
ing sun makes the dew sparkle. is
particularly fine for meditating. AS
our Jersey eats her morning grain
and I milk, can look out the barn
door across our back field that
hasn't yet been plowed.
The presence Of the COW gives 1t
sense of urgency to this reflection
because she consumes great quantf-
ties of hay and grass, and not a
scratch has been made in the field
where we must plant soybeans fol-
hay.

soil, or after each shower, will aid
materially in keeping the weeds
under control Similarly, regular
applications of a combined fungicide
and insecticide, either a dust or a
spray, will control most of the pests
that annoy us and injure our plants.
Several such products are on the
market and we should prepare now
to use them.
The new holly leaves are beginning
to appear and it is time to spray
holly trees and bushes with DDT to
control the holly leaf miner. Use
2 tablespoonfuls of so per cent wet
table DDT powder to the gallon of
water. The same strength solution
may be used little later on box
wood to control the lockwood leaf
miner. ....
Do not delay an application of
the weed killer, 2-4-D. if you would
rid your lawns and grounds of
weeds, including poison ivy. The
weed killer is much more effective II
applied in the spring when the
weeds and plants are in active
growth. Be careful to keep the
spray from touching wanted plants"
for it will kill them just as quickly
as the "unwanted." If possible
have one sprayer for 2-4-D, since 1t
is difficult to completely remove all
traces Of the 2-4-D. w. H. Y.

Last SUNDAY nlgntS naliStOrm
gave North Washington gardeners
something to talk about. Tender
vegetables and flowers suffered quite
a bit of damage. Fruit gardeners,
whose trees had managed to sur
vive the cold weather, lost most
of their fruit; that which was left
attached to the tree probably re-
ceived bruises and will drop off be-
fore reaching maturity.
Tomato growers are already spec
ulating as to the likelihood of a
recurrence of the Late Blight"
which caused such heavy losses in
1916 and reappeared in few gard
ems in 1947. The chances are that
it will not be present; however, the
Disease Warning Service of the Ag-
riculture Department will give
timely warning so that If need be
we. Gan begin to use q protective
spray or dust.
Gardeners who want something
special in the way of japanese beetle
control in their lawns will be in
terested to learn of a new product
being made ready for the market.
1t is a combination of the milky
spore disease, DOT and a fertilizer.
The milky spore disease gives per-
manent protection to the lawn al
though it needs two or three years
to reach maximum effectiveness
after an application. The DDT,
however, will give general kill the
first season but only lasts a couple
of years. The fertilizer is badly
needed to help the grass plants
survive after being chewed on all
winter by the japanese beetle grubs

1t would not be amiss to give the
rose bushes good spraying with
nicotine sulphate just before the
first buds show color. This is to
control the rose thrips, tiny suck
ing insect that enters the buds
and sucks the sap from the petals
before the flowers can unfold. 1t
is not regular pest, one that
troubles us every year, but it does
put in its appearance often enough
to warrant taking q simple pre-
cautionary step.

Sow celery seed in a fiat or special

cool, moist situation during the

Recent experimentation has de-
veloped means of arresting the ma
turity of the flower-a third ap-
proach to the problem. DR.. Alex
Laurie, professor of Horticulture,
Ohio State University. who has
studied many phases of the flower
preservation, offers two formulas
that retard the maturing of a
flower. A stock solution OF hydra
zine sulphate Il ounce to quart
of water) may be made up and Is
used at the rate of l teaspoonful
to the Quart of water-to this add
2 tablespoonfuls of sugar. This solu-
ton may be purchased under trade
names. Where such solutions are
used it Is not essential that the
water be changed daily but 1t should
not be allowed to become foul.
Regardless of the methods used
to prolong the life Of flowers don't
expect too much from them II the
flowers are kept in q hot, dry room.
Even in the garden they wilt on

we can help to revive them by

SoybeanS are our last resort. wet
weather prevented fitting the field
for lespedeza, legume that must
be seeded early in the spring, before
hot weather comes along to kill the
young seedlings. This means that
we will have to depend on soybeans
for hay, and the seeding should be
done by the middle of May.
1t brings me to thinking also OF
how much the farmer must de-
pend on the weather. A few weeks
Iof unreasonable weather in the
spring may snarl the entire farm
program, and If prolonged may
cause disaster.
Our calf has learned to drink
from. pail-very precocious, we
think her since the accomplish
ment was learned after one feeding.
When we first took the calf from
her mother, we started feeding her
from a bottle Then, one morning,
the bottle broke while being warmed
and a quart of rich Jersey milk was
spilled on the kitchen floor. Rather
than take this chance again we
changed over to the pail method.

Life on 40 Acres Thoughts at Milking Time

In the country you never nave
trouble getting advice, and almost
every farmer will tell you a differ
ent way to bring up a calf. We
favored the bottle method because
when a calf nurses the milk goes
into the proper stomach "a cow has
four of these( and she is less likely
to have digestive upsets.
We are glad to report, however
that our calf seems to thrive on the
pail method and remains as frisky as
all get-out. She is just now dis
covering the world of dry feeds
nibbling each day on the calf meal
we keep before her.
A strange thing is happening in
our driveway leading from the high
way to the house. Where there is
nothing but rocks we are getting
a lush growth of alfalfa. So lush
is it that we can hardly get our COW
to pass 1t by on her way to pasture
Where it came from we do not
know. But we wish, If nature is 60
ing to bring us presents like alfalfa
she would leave them over the
fence in the pasture.

help the ground absorb more water.
Then come the pastures. These
must be established. using, for the
most part. orchard grass and Ladino
clover mixtures and bluegrass for
some of the permanent pastures.
And then comes the problem of
selecting the type Of beef cattle for
stocking the farm. He now has
about Is head of mixed" cattle.
These will be replaced by q founda-
ton herd. probably Of Aberdeen
Angus.
I'm not sure just now" Mr..
OMeara said. But I rather lean
to the black Angus. They look
mighty good to me just now.
There's one thing I'm sure Of.
I'm not going into the beef busi-
ness as hobby. want the farm
to pay its way"
No matter what farm program Mr..
OMeara follows, he'll never be
short of machinery. During the
six years he has been waiting, four
tractors, including one crawler; two
combines, a pickup hay bailer, side
delivery rakes, post hole diggers and
other assorted farm machinery has
found its way to the Circle M. The
farm machinery investment alone
would easily run to 10000.
But just now the house Is oc-
cupying most of Mr.. O'Meara's
thoughts.
Il waited until I could get the
material to build just what I
wanted" he said. They are just
not building this kind of a house
these days"
The house will have radiant floor
heating, large fireplaces and pic
ture window that looks out over
miles of Loudoun County landscape
And being in the tile business, nat
urally there will be modern kit
chen that will be any housewives
dream.
And for his own enjoyment Mr..
O'Meara is building detached rec
reation room. 1t will be pine pam
eled and will have a map OF
Virginia with Loudoun County and
the Circle M Farm as the center
of interest.
What I'm doing is fixing for the
future" Mr.. O'Meara said. III

effects lasting quality but also the
color. Some flowers develop clear
er. richer color indoors than out.
If We cut our glads as the first
fioret opens. the entire spike should
develop indoors. The same applies
to the daylily. Peonies and daffo-
dis should be cut just as they begin
to open for clean bright colors. Iris
are cut just as the first bud begins
to unfold. Dahlias and chrysanthe-
NUNS apparently are the exception.
They should not be cut until fully
opened.
Cut flowers should be placed in
water as quickly after the cutting as
possible. Contrary to the fashion,
book illustrations . bucket Of water
is the recommended container to
take into the garden when cutting
flowers. The fashion book shows a
basket. And, for certain flowers, a
burning candle is necessary. Few
60 to this trouble but make a
second cut as soon as the flowers
are taken indoors and then immerse
the stems either in a fame or in
pan Of boiling water. This is to
seal the stems of those which bleed
or lose their milky sap when cut.
Oriental poppies. Shasta daisies,
roses and chrysanthemums are the
ones most commonly burned.
The hot-water treatment may be
given lily-of-the-valley, tulips, iris,
primroses and forget me nots.
Dahlias respond best to deep ice
cold water, although many give
them the hot-water treatment. In
burning, the object is to char the
end of the stem and this may take
two or three minutes. The boiling
water treatment. may take from two
to five minutes. With either prac-
tice the flowers should be protected
from the heat.
Immediately after burning or
cooking the stems should be placed
ins deep cold water for an hour or
more before attempting to arrange
How to Reduce Evaporation.
The above points relate primarily
to the intake of moisture. We can
also improve the lasting qualities
of our cut flowers through reducing
evaporation. One of the oldest rules
is to keep them out of bright sun
shine and strong drafts. A dry room
also hastens the end. Flowers last
longer in a cool room and if the
air is moist the life is further ex-
tended. If this is not practicable
perhaps they can be moved to q

Foods and Farm Products
Lead Week s Price Decline
BY the Assecioied Press

Drops in prices for foods and farm
products led TO q OF per cent de-
crease last week in average whole-
sale prices as measured by the Bu-
reau of Labor Statistics.
The bureau announced yesterday
that its index at the close OF the
week ended November 6 was IL per
cent under a month ago and per
cent above year ago. 1t was 1927
per cent of the 1926 average and
about the same level as the first
week of May, 194S.
Wholesale food prices declined ID
per cent during the week. Quota.
tions were lower for most meats.
cheese and butter, lard and oleo.
Average wholesale food prices are
So per cent below month ago and
81 per cent under year ago.
For the November 6 week, aver
age wholesale farm prices declined l
per cent to a level of IA per cent
under a month ago and 3.9 per cent
below a year ago.
Among commodities other than
foods and farm products the bureau
noted a record high in the whole
sale price of lead: increases for hides
and mems suits; lower prices for
mems shoes, cotton piece goods and
crude rubber.

Many of the bets were as low as
so cents, Mr.. Perrin said, and the
average was about rs cents.
Everybody was having a wonderful
time, Mr.. Perrin said, and the op-
timism was not diminished by the
appearance of two Fairfax County
policemen about $50 o'clock. They
talked and joked" and left in about
Is minutes, he said.
Then, about 1:30 o'clock while the
sixth race" was being run, in
walked Fairfax Police Inspector
Henry T. Magarity with two ABC
agents and several county police
men.
They charged c. K. Vance, soc

the lodge proprietor, with permit
ting gaming, permitting liquor or
the premises and selling beer after
hours.
| William r. Schreck, 2704 Central
avenue, Alexandria, chairman of the
Ways ard Means Committee, took
the blame for the horse race game
and was charged with gambling.
Both men were released under
5000 bond on each charge and g
hearing was scheduled for Wednes-
day in Fairfax Trial Magistrate
Court.
Fairfax officials recalled that sew
eral months ago police raided a
bingo game at service club carnival
in Herndon and one club member
took the blame and was charged
