Sod Doubles Peach
Need For Nitrogen

Peaches grown with sod for a
cover crop need about twice as
much nitrogen as peaches grown
under the standard systems OF
orchard cultivation.
r. G. Hill, Ohio Agricultural
Experiment Station horticultur-
ist, says this was brought out in
tests conducted at Wooster with
Halehaven peaches grown under
the sod system and regular cultl-
vation systems. Trees growing on
sod were given normal, twice
normal, and four times the norm
al nitrogen applications. Results
were determined by measuring
the rate of shoot growth, leaf
area. leaf color and yield.
Results show that if there are
Is to 20 inches of rainfall be-
tween May and September, trees
growing in sod and receiving
twice the normal nitrogen appll-
cation, will compare favorably
with trees maintained under the
accepted system of nitrogen fer
tilization and cultivation.
Four times the normal amount
of nitrogen applied to the trees
grown on sod causes excessive
growth with late maturing and
poorly colored fruit. Trees grow
ing in sod which received norm
al nitrogen application produced
less growth, yield and smaller,
lighter colored leaves than trees
under cultivation and cover crops.
These fertilizer tests will be
discussed at the 21st Annual Fruit
School, being held at the Ohio
Agricultural Experiment Station,
Wooster, November 1928.

Early Puliets Lay
High-Priced Eggs

Baby chicks, started between
November and January, will lay
more eggs when markets are pay
ing top prices, says D. D. Meyer,
extension poultry specialist, Ohio
State University.
In 1850, farm prices of eggs
averaged 13 cents more after July
l than they did between January
and the end of June. Meyer says,
'In many periods when the feed
egg ratio is not too favorable, 13
cents would be a very satisfact-
ory profit margin"
Meyer says the time may come
when it won't make any differ
ence whether eggs are produced
in spring or fall. AS egg produc-
ton begins to be the same the
year around, price will tend to
be the same also. At present,
however, poultrymen can get
more profits by producing when
eggs are worth more.
Meyer recommends permanent
type brooder houses for Novem-
ber-to-January brooding. He also
points out that auxiliary heat
will be needed if an electric
brooder is used. Electric brood
ers, especially in colony type
houses, fail to keep litter in sat,
isfactory condition.
Buying chicks from a recog'
nized hatchery or breeder also i!
best policy. When they are ready
to order their chicks, farmer:
will want to know something
about flock improvement anc
pullorum control programs of po
tential suppliers of baby chicks

Contempt Complaint
BY the Associated Press

CHICAGO. Feb. 13.-Govern-
ment prosecutors mapped plans

TEMPT action against a railroad
union for the recent To-day sick

on classified and postal salaries
since 1949. the last time salaries

AFL noted that Federal "blue COL

clared it is only fair that classified

increases.
Men and women in the lower

Congress Redistrictine
Plan Urges Splitting
Prince Georges

A plan for creating new con-
gressional district in Maryland,
involving splitting Prince Georges
County. has been advanced by
Walter L. Green, Prince Georges
County attorney. He set forth
the plan in a letter to Representa-
tive Sasscer, Democrat, of Mary
land.
Several plans have been put
forward during the current session
Iof the Maryland General Assem-
bly,, which must adopt legislation
affecting redistricting. The Free
State is entitled to seventh rep
Iresentative in Congress as a result
Iof the 1850 census.
Under Mr.. Green's plan, the
district would be made up of
Montgomery and Howard Counties
and all Of the territory in Prince
Georges County lying north of
Central avenue from the point
where it intersects the District of
Columbia to the point where it
crosses the Patuxent River. Mont
gomery is in the 9Th district, and
Howard and Prince Georges are
in the 5th.
las nearly as can be estimated, :"
Mr.. Green wrote, the population
of this new district would be
286,000 persons.
If a new district is created in
this manner. there will remain in
the 5th district approximately
268,000 people and there will re-
main in the 9Th district approx
mately 100000 people.
While this will divide Prince
Georges County insofar as the
congressional district is concerned,
there are many cities that are di-
vlded in q similar way and while
it might not be most desirable I'M
der other circumstances, it will not
disturb, materially. the immediate
homeplace of an sitting Congress-
man"
One plan advanced by the
Democratic leaders in the General
Assembly would carve the new 7th
district entirely out of the city Of
Baltimore.
Suggestions of Republicans have
included creating seventh dis
trict composed of Prince Georges
and Montgomery Counties.

Bargaining Sessions Resumed

Negotiators for major railroads
and four unions resumed bargain
ing sessions with the National
Mediation Board today. A three
year contract plan offered by the
carriers was up for study.
Management representatives SUBJ
mitted a proposed agreement last
night, based on the December q
memorandum signed at the White
House. That memorandum was
rejected by local leaders of the
four unions. who instructed their
national union chiefs to get a
better contract. The recent sick
strike followed.
The unions made it clear in ad-

would reject the whole thing. The
unions-the engineers. conductors
trainmen and flremen and engine
men-balked at the rules changes
proposed by the carriers and also
at the wage increases.
