NEW PROBLEMS?

From Mrs. v. F., WashingtonJ
This will stump the experts. I
fear, but if there is an answer to
my problem I'm sure this is the
way to find it.
l have Burmese chair with
reed seat and back. an intricate
pattern such as only the Orientals
make. (The chair is also beauti-
fully carved.) A small boy who
visits us could not rest until he
put a hole in the seat-it is rather
old. The question, who can re-
pair or recane it for me? Ordinary
Gaming will not do at ALL
Now for another unreasonable
request. I have a glass pitcher
with German silver filagreed trim.
The glass has been broken. Can
any glass blower make a new

Also, I'd like a hand crocheted

New Stove Turns
Wood Into Gas And
Then II Burns II

The old pot.bellied stove has
finally given way. Not that it
hasn't been on the way out many
places for a long time. But Coun-
ty Extension Agent Frank Web.
ster says the up-draft principle
of the poi. bellied stove has been
used for 100 years or more pract.
ically without change until re-
Gently.
Now an efficient wood. burning
stove which distills wood into
gas and then burns the gas has
been developed In this country.
It combines the best features of
Wood-burning stoves designed in
Europe, where the problem of
fuel wood has been more acute.
The agent said this new stove
suggests that the farmer with a
woodlot, in particular, can make
his fuel go farther and with less
trouble. Trimmings and forest
waste can be used.
NEEDS LITTLE ATTENTION
This new stove, being produc.
ed in this country as a furnace
and now being developed in
heater size, needs to be filled
only once every IL to "a hours
and requires little other atten-
ton. Wood is fed automatically
to the crate by gravity from a
fuel magazine.
It's much more efficient than
the old. timers, uses less wood
and can use lower grades of fuel
wood. Instead Of allowing the
combustible elements to escape
up the chimney or be deposited
on the flues In the form of SCOT
and creosote, they are passed
along a circuitous route where
they are mixed with an air cur.
rent and practically all con.
sumed.
There is also relative freedom

Church Survey May Get Results

The religious survey planned by the Mid Columbia
council OF Churches for Sunday may have far-reachng
effect on the Tri-City community.
The survey will include the questioning of every
family In the area far possible Such information
church membership, preference if not member of any
church. and the relationship of the children to the church
life OF the community will be asked.
While less has been said about the aim of the survey
than about how it is to be conducted it is obvious that
the ultimate aim is to bring people in the three cities
into the fellowship of the churches.
it might defeat the biggest possibilities of the pro-
ject.
Ever since the Hanord works project established
there has been great stress the business industrial and
social sides of the community It has been very
to expand the housing facilities of the The in

for is to provide sustaining jobs for the people of

But although small groups of people have been work.
ing faithfully to make this community of church goers
church attendance still is much too low, indicated by
the many empty pews in the churches of Kennewick,
Pasco, and Richland. IT.
The survey will give ministers and their coworkers
detailed information which to plan their goals for
greater church membership should be difficult to
increase the total church membership in the by

the best of guarantee against lowering of the moral and

that everybody is always welcome in the churches
He added that many people not against going to
church but that they need some special reminder to bring
them in.

soil that needs organic matter
or fertility should be built up
well before planting. Production
in fertile land with plenty of or
ganic matter is likely to be high
and If the soil is poor no more
than average.
Good barnyard manure Is ex.
cellent material to use in pre-.
pairing for new strawberry plant
ings, but If it cannot be obtained
planting a green manure crop
In September and turning 1t un.
der next spring is a good substi.
tute as one step.
COVERS 10 MONTHS
The preparation program us.
ually covers about 18 months, so
either the barnyard manure or
green manure application this
fall should be one of several
steps to add organic matter and
fertility. If green manure is
grown a good practice is to
grow three successive crops Of
green manure before setting out
the strawberry plants.
The soil should have a cover
crop on it during the winter to
check teaching, and unlike sol.
uble fertilizers either kind of
manure won't wash away when
the plants need it and the plants
cannot gorge themselves on it.
There is no clear.cut evidence
TO show that one green manure
crop is better than others. The
ones that seem to produce the
most organic matter and put
some extra nitrogen in the soil
include hairy vetch, Austrian
winter peas, sweet clover, and
Ladino clover. How good the
green manure crop will be de.
ponds upon how much it grows.
Fertilizing while seeding the
green manure crop compounds
the investment and gives the
field full advantage of fall rain.

needs and on the basis Of this

He said further information
can be obtained from the coun-
