Agronomist Gives
Corn Yield Tips

Seven points hold the key to
getting more bushels of corn from
fewer acres in 1949, according to
E. P. Reed, extension agronomist
at Ohio State University.
These points include controlling
water, cultivating regularly, plow-
ing on contour, planting new hy-
brids at the proper rate and using
plenty of lime and fertilizer.
Although he admits that most
Ohio farmers will not be able to
improve the drainage of their
fields at this late date, the agron-
omist says they still can reap divi-
dends by paying attention to the
other six points.
"Corn needs organic matter"
he declares. "If you have grown
legumes regularly in the rotation,
your soil will be in better shape.
Then, it is important to see that
it does not crust over. Regulate
your civilizations to preserve good
soil tilth."
Flowing on the contour helps
hold moisture and keeps the fertile
top soil in place, he explains,
while planting of some of the
newer hybrids will result in yield
increases over the older hybrids.
On adjusting planting rate to
the productive capacity of soil, Mr..
Reed comments that this can mean
an increase in yield of Is to 20
bushels to the acre on good corn
land. Suggested planting rates
for soils with different yield levels
are, for rows 40 inches wide.
2 kernels per hill for expected
yields up to so bushels per acre,
3 per hill for yields between 81
to rs bushels, and 4 per hill for
rs and above.
Nse of lime and fertilizer, he
concludes, is equally important.
Applications of 400 or more
pounds of fertilizer per acre
usually results in yield increase Of
Is to 20 bushels per acre. In
Ohio tests, he states, row appli-
cations of fertilizer have given the
best results.

TELEPHONE CONTRACT GOOD NEWS

NEWS WHATEVER relating to forward movement
on the public works program is. good news, SO we rejoice that
contracts will be let for new telephone systems both here and
in St. Thomas. Ordinarily this should be occasion for mild
celebration, but experiences of the past teach us to 90 slowly.
lime and time again there have been great plans, prepare
tons, much publicity, and accompanying these great rel oicing,
but in practically every case the program has begged down. If
anyone questions this let him look at the sewer program, with
the dug up streets, and all that goes with it.
THERE is NOTHING more necessary at the moment
than a modern, efficient, adequate telephone system. For
years we have been saddled with a system which is as anti
quated as it is ineffective. Let a little rain fall and everything
goes wrong, calls are crossed, those that succeed in coming
through and at times the poor operators experience mild
shocks. Again and again in urgent situations citizens have
tried in vain to put through calls only to sit helplesSly while
nothing happens. In this modern day, with everything Ameri-
can, the present telephone system in ST. Croix is a tragic com
mentary on both the government and the great public works
program, much publicized, but of little or no effect, at least
up to the moment.
IT WILL BE wonderful to see new, French telephones
in offices and homes; to know that calls will 60 through when
ever required; that rain and other weather conditions will not
have the sad effect that they had in the past. The thought
is most encouraging, and we hope that the Administration will
take every step possible to see to it that this dream comes true.

Moderate Appointed
New French Premier
By the Associated Press

PARIS, Oct. 19.-President Vim
cent Auroil today assigned Rene
Mayer. former Finance Minister
and Radical Socialist. to take
the premiership of France and at
tempt to form a government.
Mr.. Mayer, member of the same
moderate party as Henri Queuille
who resigned as premier, October
6, said he had accepted the as
signment.
He goes before the National AS
sembly tomorrow to seek the
needed vote of confidence before
he takes up the task of lining up
a government. Socialist Jules
Moch gave up the job Monday
night because he couldn't get a
set of ministers among the mid
dle-of-t he-road parties of the
colition to agree on policy.
Mr.. Queuille's government had
fallen in a dispute between the
Socialists and the Radical Social
lists over the price-wage policies.
Since Mr.. Moch's failure to form
government. others had been re-
luctant to accept the assignment.
Mr.. Mayer. however. expressed
hope he would be able to find
agreement which would end the
14-day-old government crisis.
He had been offered the job by
the Socialist President previously
and had turned it down, hoping to
be able to PERSUADE Mr.. Queuille
to take the post once again. Mr..
Queuille's term of more than a
year in office had been a postwar
record. However, he was unsuc-
cessful in the attempt to persuade
Mr.. Queuille.
