LEGISLATURE'S
 FIRST TWO BILLS
 APPROVED BY GOV.

Governor Gruening's office ad- vised the legislature today of his approval of the first two bills sent to him by the 20th session.
 One allows the attorney general to switch $2,00O from a surplus fund in his office appropriation to make up the S2,0O0 omitted from his salary appropriation by the l949 legislature. The legislature voted last session to boost his salary to 5000 a year but only provided sl6,COO for the two-year period.
 The other bill enacted into law allows the courts to sentence of- lenders under 19 years of age to from three to 20 years in prison in rape cases involving juveniles. The law has provided for a manda- tory life sentence in such cases.

DOUGLAS
 VIEWS
WILDER VISITS COUNCIL

E. Glen Wilder, Alaska Housing Authority executive, was a visitor at the Douglas City Council meet ing last Wednesday evening in a special session.
 Wilder outlined the problems in starting the Douglas Housing pro- ject-which is now year behind, with construction supposed to have been completed during last sum- mer The main reason for his Coun- cil visit was to explain the reasons behind the Alaska Housing Authori- tvs decision to erect 50 housing units on undeveloped land, outside the incorporated city. The project definitely is of interest to Douglas because it involves the Douglas h. dependent School District.
 Business coming before the coun- cil that evening included reading of an amended dog ordinance which would double the license rates for both male and female dogs, and provide a dog pound facility for unclaimed dogs.
 It was announced by Mayor Pu- sich that full settlement had been made by the insurance companies on the wind-wrecked cannery struc- lures, which suffered in this win ter's north wind storm. Arrange ments are being made now for the rebuilding of the building with the possibility of the Douglas Vol unteer Fire Department taking over the construction end under super vision oi the City.

Garden Time

In the area near Wilmington,
commercial vegetable growers
are producing crop which is
relatively new to this State. This
is a species of multiplier onion
known as shallots, or as some
seed catalogues list them-eschal-
lottes.
Shallots are planted in August
or September as a fall crop and
in the extreme eastern part OF
the State also in January or Feb
ruary as a spring crop. The single
bulks or sets are planted just as
with onion sets. AS 500 as growth
begins, the bulk splits up into
several plants connected at the
base like multiplier onions. These
are used or sold as green onions
as soon as they reach a desirable
size.
Shallots are milder than ordin-
airy green onions and are better
adapted for fall culture. I believe
they should be used more gener-
ally in the future in home gar
dens of the Piedmont and Coast
al Plain as a fall garden onion.
I tried them out in my own gar

CONDITIONS FAVORABLE
FOR EARLY TRUCK CROPS

Weather conditions in North
Carolina were quite variable dur
ing the first half of February.
Temperatures from the End to the
18th of the month were well below
freezing in the truck producing
areas. On the 18th temperatures
rose to record high, dropping a
gain to slightly below normal by
the 18th. Obout one inch of pre-
cipitation in the form of rain and
snow fell over the truck produc-
ing area during the first ten days
of the month, and moisture sup
plies are generally adequate.
Early planting of Irish pota-
toes is under way in Currituck
County. In the other counties of
the area growers are preparing
land and getting ready to plant
though few have started as yet.
Freezing weather damaged the
cabbage crop to some extent in
the extreme northeastern part of
the State. Most of the crop has
been set out in all sections and,
except for Currituck County, the
condition of the crop is good.
Planting has been virtually COM
pleted in all sections. Some plant
shortages have been reported, but
generally the supply is adequate.
Cold weather has retarded grow
tn and the crop is about Z to 10
days late this year.
Lettuce plants haven't made
normal growth in beds this year
and growers are just beginning
to set. Almost three-fourths of
the crop was drilled in the field,
however, and is up to a good stand
with rough leaves formed. Con-
dition of the crop is good but
will be 3 to A weeks late. Harvest
will probably not begin before
May /.
The beet crop had terminated
prior to the heavy freeze the
first part of February and was
killed. Growers have just COM
pleted reseeding.
Prospects for North Cardinals
strawberry crop are quite bright
at present. The plants are just
beginning to show color now. No
buds had formed prior to the hard
freezes, so no bloom was lost. Red
spider is still prevalent despite
freezes and control measures and
is causing some concern amnog
growers.

NEW COLUMN GIVES
TIPS ON GARDENING

A new garden column entitled
Garden Time" prepared by Rob-
ert Schmidt, associate professor
of horticulture at N. C. State Col
lege, appears for the first time
today in this paper.
The column, which will appear
as a regular feature each week,
is designed to give practical sug-
gestions on how to grow better
fruits and vegetables for the FAM
lily food supply.
In today's column, Schmidt en-
pRasizes the need for increased
home and food production in the
present national emergency. He
suggests that Liberty Gardens"
can be a potent force in the de-
tense effort just as Victory Card
ems" filed a similar need during
World War IL.
Schmidt, native of New Jersey
and a graduate Of Rutgers Uni
versity with a Bachelor of Science
degree, has had extensive expert
ence in the field of horticulture,
particularly in the production of
vegetables. He developed the N. C.
No. / strain of Porto Rico sweet
potato, the Cape Fear pecan, and
the Herring collard, ,and he was
co-developer of the Sequoia Irish
potato. In addition, he has done
much research work on lettuce, to-
matoes, and other vegetables.
His experience includes periods
of duty at the New Jersey Agricul-
tural Experiment Station, Kansas
State Agricultural Experiment
Station, Mississippi State College,
and the North Carolina Agricul-
tural Experiment Station. He is
a member of the American So
ciety for Horticultural Science,
American Potato Association, and
American Dahlia Society.
Schmidt spent considerable time
overseas as an Army infantry Of
ficer during both World War l and
II. During the last conflict he
served for some time as a major
in command of a replacement bat
talon.
