Farmers Plow Under
$3O,.OOO,OCO A Year

Ohio farmers in 1947 more
than doubled the tonnage of fer
tilizer they bought in 1888, and
the increase in price per ton
probably resulted in their spend
ing $20,000,000 more for fertili-
zer last year than they spent in
1888. Earl Jones, extension agron-
omist, Ohio State University. re-
ports Ohio farmers bought u.s.
5l2 tons of fertilizer last year, at
cost of over $30,000,000.
The l948 tonnage was only
about $4,000 tons more than was
bought in l946, but Mr.. Jones
says considerably more fertilizer
would have been applied both
years to Ohio soil if farmers
could have obtained the fertili-
zers they wanted at the time they
wanted them. Supplies of fertil-
izer this year are a little larger
than in l947, but demand still
exceeds supply.
Ohio farmers bought almost
twice as much 2-l2-6 fertilizer in
l947 as the combined total of all
other analysis, but Ohio State
| gronomists did not put 2-12-6 on
| the list of fertilizers they recon-
mended for Ohio farmers to buy
in 1913. The analysis which was
most popular with farmers is
omitted from the agronomist'
preferred list because plant foods
can be bought cheaper in higher
grade fertilizers.
Ohio sales records show farm,
ers buy about four tons of fertil
izer in the spring for each three
bought in the fall, and that they
J buy about 25 tons of mixed fer
tilizer for every ton of straight
nitrogen, phosphorus and potash
| carrier.

James Noble should be alive to
help me defend his namcSake,

hungry country of Noble coun-
ty" - written by Jack Jonas in
The Citizen. Believe me, l told
this Jonas lad.
Hungry? We've always pro-
duced big people in Noble, I
said. "Circuses used to recruit
their giants down there Arch
bishop Bates has two cousins who
were giants. They were so big
they measured two feet between
the eyes"
Jonas stammered around, final

King avenue, about this, expect
ing sympathy.
Noble county always was a
shoWoff set Sam exploded. You
had Private Dalzell, and then Doc
Cain. Now you're all out of orat-
ors, SO you have a big landslide
to show off"
I asked Sam where he was
from.
"Woodsfield, Monroe county"
he said. I'VE get about quietly do
ing good by voting a straight
Democratic ticket"
Sam said Republicans are not
allowed in the Woodsfield court
house. They must send in their
taxes by mail.

cling out of GAINESVILLE has a wore

to get some seed of a new hybrid,

say to this?
1.-THE seed for the new hybrid
Thought cost me $1,000 per 1000
kernels or sixteen and tWo-thirds
dollars per pound. This would be
$93333 per bushel. This hybrid
will be released next spring in
limited amounts and anyone
Wishing to place an order now
for seed may do SO. The price
will not be prohibitive but, some
higher than present prices.
s"Some growers who are pro-

will be able to grow.

In Washington With
Congressman Griffiths

The controversy raging on Cap
ital Hill between the Congress
and Administration over the pro-
posal Of Congress for a 70 group
air force will most likely, bc re-
solved soon because Secretary Of
Defense Forrcstal has now sug-
gested a 66 group as against the
SIS he proposed some time ago.
A part of the appropriation for
the strengthening of our air
forces will be spread over the
next few years for continued re-
search and improvement, be-
cause, those OF us interested are
insisting that all new aircraft
must be of latest design and inn
provement. Of course, an inn
provement in world conditions
would give more time, but at
least two, and possibly four, years
of peacetime production is needed
to make the air force the striking
force as a defense measure we
most desire.
Why are government expenses
hard to cut? a good part of tht
answer lies in the fact that one
/ person out of every twelve en-
! ployed in the United States re
ceiVes a major portion of his in
come from the government.

The defense budget for 1949
fiscal year, starting this July lst,
will be in the neighborhood of

the immense amounts for foreign

upon the economy Of our Coun-

for civilian uses. To speak plainly,
it is in the books but will most

was cross-examined today at ar
Interstate Commerce Commission
nearing which is considering the
lines petition for a scent increase
in fares between Washington arlc
Hillside and Coral Hills, Md.
Mr.. Tanner was questioned By
Tobias e. Levow, sole opponent o1
the petition to appear.
Mr.. Ievow brought out that the
fare between the last stop in the
District and the first stop in Mary
land on the Seat Pleasant line
would be Is cents under the pro-
posed schedule. MIR. Tanner ad-
mitted the distance was less thar
half a mile.
Although the fare boxes on the
buses cannot handle coins less than
five cents, Mr.. Levow developed
that d fare increase of less thar
five cents could be handed through
q ticket system.
Mr.. Levow, Patent Off1ce exami-
ner, Is q resident Of Coral Hills. Ht
opposes the fare increase an ar
individual and a representative o1
the Hillside and Coral Hills Citi.
zens' Associations.
The company. in addition to ask
ing for the f1ve-cent increase be-
tween washington and the first
zone of Its Seat Pleasant division
also is asking the District Public
Utilities Commission for an in
crease in fares wholly within the
District. The present District fare
Is 10 cents and the company wants
to increase the fare to Is cents cash
or two tokens for 25 cents.
