SUBSTITUTE BILL Offered
IN SANDUSkY BAY Fish FIGHT

A substitute measure, proposing
creation cf a commission to study
the Sandusky Bay fishing prob
lens, was presented by the house
conservation subcommittee Tues
day evening at the hearing In Co
lumbus. The full committee ac-
cepted the report but delayed ac-
tion on the new bill.
This proposed commission would
be made up of three senators,
three representatives and trlo
named by the governor. They
would be paid only expenses but
could subpoena witnesses and
records. Their report would be
presented to the governor and leg
islature before Jan. Is, 1851. A
$4,000 appropriation to finance the
study would be included in the
general appropriation bill.
Rep. Edward DeChant, Lorain,
asked removal of his name from
the substitute bill. He had spon-
sored one of the bills asking ban
ming of commercial fishing in San
dusky Bay. DeChant called the
substitute bill a waste OF time
and money.
Reps. Esther Hardy, Sandusky,
Lowell Fess, Greene County and
Joseph Logan, Putnam County, APP
proved the substitute bill. The
commission would hire "protes-
sional" help to study fishing prac-
tices of commercial fishermen and
sportsmen in the bay; causes OF
discord between the two groups,
and condition of waters and wa
terlife in the bay.
Few commercial fishermen from
this area were in Columbus Tues
day when the House of Represen-
tative's subcommittee reported on
the three bills designed to pro-
hibit commercial fishing in San
dusky Bay.
Proponents of the bills, includ-
ing 25 carloads of fishermen and
sportsmen from the Fremont area,
attended the hearing. Atty. Hen
ry IStahl, president of the Sandus-
ky County Chamber of Commerce,
headed the delegation.
Hook and line fishermen charge
that the decreasing fish population
in the bay is caused by hauls of
the commercial fishermen, who
deny the charge and say that the
poor fishing is due to pollution,
soil erosion and too many carp.

Plum CurCulio
Spray Tips Given

Ottawa County Fruit Growers
who have had trouble with plum
curculio are advised to take i'm
mediate steps to control this pest.
The first adult beetles were found
near Port Clinton on May 2 by
Roy w. Rings and Alan l.. Stef-
fen Of the Ohio Agricultural Ex
pertinent Station,
Although a petal-fall spray is
mot recommended for general use
on peaches, it may be of consider
able value in certain areas where
difficulty has been experienced in
the control Of this pest. Chlor-
dane is the most effective chemical
available for killing adult beetles
which appear in the orchard at
petal-fall time. Lead arsenate
may be used in this spray if chlor-
dane is not available.
Benzone hexachloride is the most
valuable material to use on peach
es in the shuck-split stage because
Of its unusual toXicity to young
Curculio larvae which are just be-
ginning to tunnel into The fruit at
that time. In this respect benzene
heXachloride is superior to other
known materials and is recon-
mended for general use in this
spray. Since insccticidal residues
of this chemical do not persist
over long period, second appli-
cation should be made about 10
days after the first.
In orchards where plum curculio
has not been controlled satisfactor-
lily with a benzene heXachloride
schedule, the two applications of
this material may be followed by
one or two sprays of chlordance
at Today intervals. Although the
benzene heXa-chloride- -chlordane
schedule is much more effective
than the former material alone
such a schedule is rather costly
Chlordane is recommended in the
later sprays because of the ten
dency of benzene heXachloride tC
produce off-havor in processed
peaches if it is applied later than
10 days after the shuck-split stage

Plan Contests For
Young Dairyrnen

Ohio All club youths will find
this summer that quality pays
in more ways than one!
Again this year, the milk and
cream quality All demonstration
program will receive the financial
report of the Ohio Dairy Prod
ucts Association, according to w.
H. Palmer, state All club leader.
This means, he says, that any
All team demonstrating before a
rural adult audience the sanitary
measures necessary to produce
good quality milk and cream will
receive payment for its work.
Basis of payment will be 81 for
each individual demonstration
and $4 for each team demonstra-
tion. This arrangement provides a
source of extra money for the in
dividuals concerned, or for the
club secretary, Mr.. Palmer states.
State demonstration contests
will be held in connection with the
Ohio State Junior Fair, and the
winning team members and Win
ming individuals will have their
expenses paid to the National
All Club Congress.
Urging all Al youths to take
advantage of this offer, Mr.. Pal
mer explains the biggest value in
the demonstration work is in the
opportunity it offers for rural
youth to develop poise and lead
ership traits through making ap-
pearances before the public.

Vets Are Slow In
Asking For Medals

LACARNE-Holders of World
War II military decorations have
been slow to apply for certificates
that attest to their awards, the
Adiutant of Erie Ordnance Depot
is advised by Second Army Head
quarters.
Medal winners are receiving GER
tificates of the diploma type, which
bear a replica of the particular
decoration.
Nearly one million servicemen
and women decorated during the
war have not yet received the GER
tifcates to which they are entitled.
1t is estimated that 4,300 are au-
thorized to receive certificates for
the Distinguished Service Cross,
$4,000 for the Silver Star, $4,000
for the Legion of Merit, $4,000
for the Soldiers Medal, 100000 for
the Bronze Star, and 568,000 for
the Purple Heart.
Winners of decorations should
address their requests for certi-
ficates to The Adjutant General,
Department of the Army, Wash
ington 25, d. c., indicating the
number, date, and headquarters of
the general orders that awarded
the decoration originally, and en-
closing copies of the complete ci-
tations, if available.
In the case of decorations
awarded posthumously, the next
of kin may obtain the certificate.

Corn Planting
Dates Are Given

When should field corn be
planted?
Every year this question starts
an argument, but T. H. Parks,
extension entomologist at Ohio
State University, offers some good
reasons why corn should be plant
ed between May II and 27 through
out central Ohio.
This particular time has the
advantage, he says, because the
corn will experience minimum
damage by corn borer, cutworms,
sod webworms, seed maggots, and,
in the southern half of the state,
the grain moth.
Although he admits these dates
may have the disadvantage of be-
ing too late to permit prompt
seeding of wheat in the fall, he
cites comments of the agronomists
that these dates usually assure a
good stand and optimum yields.
Ample choice of hybrids are
available for planting between May
II and 27, and corn planted during
that period has a better chance Of
maturing and escaping frost dam
age.
Corn planted before May II is
likely to have poor stand, and
weed control will be a major prob
lem; while that planted after May
27 may be attacked by chinch bugs
and grasshoppers. Late paintings,
too, usually lower yields and in
crease the frost hazard, and usual
ly result in corn in poor condition
for storing.

Anyway, the veteran writer is

Answer:
Keep on with your school. |
am sure that you will find that
it will pay you bigger dividends
in the long run although the
present prospect is not a rosy
one.
To begin with, | don't see why
one girl, who has so many Sis
tiers and brothers, should be ex-
pected to take over the whole
burden of the house work.
Why can't all of them or
those who are at home divide up
the work so that it will not be "a
tremendous burden on any one?
Even the sister who has been
operated on should soon be able
to help with simple work as
mending or work that can be
done without strain.
Of course, if circumstances are
such that your mother will suf
fer actual neglect while you are
away, it may be wise to stop
school for a few weeks until she
is better or the sister can look
after her but if you do stop tenn
porarily get your teacher to as
sign your lessons and try to keep
up with them at home SO that
you will not have any difficulty
in catching up when you do go
back.
l know that the prospect of
a job with your very own money
is a temptation just at this time

help you to get much better
