Liberian Government
Pays $50, 600 On
Lend Lease

The Liberian Government has
recently made the first amortiza-
ton payment of .$150,0O0 to the
United States for lend lease ex-
penditures in connection with
the Free Port of Monrovia. Pay
ment was made by Liberian Am
bessador to the United States
Clarence L. Simpson.
Construction of the port cost
$20,000,000 which amount will be
repaid in full by money earned
in operating the port facilities.
Officially opened in 1948, the
port is one of the most modern
on the West Coast of Africa. It's
main wharf is 1000 feet long,
and can accommodate four freigh-
ters or tank ships at one time.
Built to handle about 100000 tons
of cargo a year, there is now need
for more space to take care of the
ever-increaSing imports and ex-
ports.

The prompt payment of this

he had not been offered any job
Ly PreSident-ele Eisenhower.
He told members and guests of
the PigSkin club that he liked his
job at the United Nations too
well to leave. Speaking at the
Clubs 18th annual banquet held
in the Terrace room at the Ma
tional Airport, the UN executive
made it clear that he was not an
ticipating coming to Washington.
This statement was made in re-
ply to a question regarding ru-
mors that Gen. Eisenhower was
considering DR.. Bunche for a po-
Sition as rowing ambassador and
world trouble-shooter for the
United States.
The UN trusteeship director
simply replied that he has had no
offers from anyone.
DR.. Bunche referred to the
United Nations as the only hope

sented to the North Carolina

Life in the Countrv
The Swallows Have Returned,
Flying Gracefully About the Old Barn

The barn swallows are back.
They came one day last week,
forget now Just which day it was.
But one evening there they were,
sailing gracefully IN and out of the
old barn.
I am not sure, but I believe
the swallows take over the old
nests from year to year. can't
say that I blame them, for the
engineering skill required in the
construction of a swallow nest is
considerable.
The nests usually are construct
ed on the side of a rafter support
ing the roof. I have watched the
building and have seen the swal-
lows dampen straw with mud and
cement it along the side Of the
wooden supports. The finished
nest. while not as graceful as
the nest Of the Oriole, is some
thing to look at.
I have never seen q young swal-
low learning to fly. It may be
that they flutter about like some
OF the song birds, but believe
they must remain in the nest
until they are full grown and are
then able to fly away.
I must build a martin house
Martins can keep you interested
for hours. just watching them
fly into the nest holes. They
never perch. but enter the house
almost at full speed. 1t is like
some one once said: "They have
had thousands Of years of prac-
tice."
DR.. Sam Burch is another 40
acre man. But unlike me, he kept
shy Of cows. It is easier, he said,
just to walk across the field each
day to neighbor's house and
come home with a gallon bucket
of milk. I think he has some
thing.
On his place up near Boyce,
Va, DR.. Burch has one of the
handiest one-man stables I've ever
seen. It was once an old barn,
and the stable fixings are his own.
There are three large stalls, a
tack room and a fioored center
isle that makes grooming your
horse almost a pleasure.
The Burches, like us on The 40
Acres. have a long range plan.
There is one compensation for
being poor, he said. It keeps you
from going too fast and making
mistakes.
I am sure that is true, but there
are times when I would be glad

|Nutive Orchids Make Fine Show

A wildf1ower garden would
hardly be complete without an
orchid. Our native terrestrial
orchids are both snowy and of easy
culture. While the common yellow
slipper orchid is generally thought
of as being the most easily grown,
local experience indicates that the
Moccasion orchid or pink lady
slipper must be in a soil well en-
riched with pine needles. This is
hardly borne out by experience.
The hardy orchids should never
be moved except while dormant.
Moreover. the roots are coarse,
stringlike. and rest upon the soil
under a blanket of leafmoYd.
When dormant the roots may be
lifted and handled easily, provided
they are not permitted to dry out.

Agrononist Saws
To PIoW Down
Corn Fertilizer

II you're looking forward to a
big corn crop this year, it will pay
to start off right by plowing down
fertilizer. according to Frank
Bentz. extension soils specialist
at the University of Maryland.
Corn needs 1870 pounds of nitro
gen, 40 pounds of phosphate and
1873 pounds of potash to make a
100-bushel crop. Some of this
plant food can be furnished by the
soil. Good. legume sod crops
plowed down will help. So will
manure. But even a good applica-
ton of manure to a legume sod
will still leave the soil short of
enough plant food for a maximum
corn crop.
When manure has been spread
on sod to be plowed for corn, Mr..
Bentz advises an application Of
200 to 400 pounds per acre Of
0-14-7, either before or after
plowing. Then apply $50 or 300
pounds Of 5-10-5 or 5-10-10 per
acre at the time of planting.
If no manure or legume sod is
plowed under. you'll need to pillow
down 500 pounds per acre Of
5-10-10 or 5-10-5, in addition to
your planter application of 300
pounds of either formula.
This will still leave a nitrogen
shortage, so so to 70 pounds Of
nitrogen per acre applied as a
sidedressing when the corn is
knee-high will make up the diff
ference.
Sound expensive? Maybe, Mr..
Bentz says, but the way it will
increase your yield will make 1t
pay.

Early Tomatoes
Low IieIdino

1t is not wise to pay too much
attention to xtra-earliness in to-
matoes. The low yielding, poor
quality. extra-early varieties are
usually only a few days to a week
earlier than the good standard
varieties. Most early varieties will
not set fruit until the soil and
the weather are warm enough. all
though it is possible through
spraying with fruit setting har-
none to get fruit from the first
blossoms.

Appreciated Trees

George Washington planted
many trees or gave them as gifts
to his friends.
Abraham Lincoln's early ex-
ploits in Illinois and Indiana are
commemorated with numerous
historic trees. Devotion of both
men to trees instilled an early ap-
preciation of their decorative and
economic values in the country at
large.

Hobby becomes big business. Ralph
Sheetz of Huntington, Indiana,
started raising mink as a hobby in
1892. The hobby has grown into a
big business. In 1851, Mr.. Sheetz
raised 21OO pelts. He has won lat
prizes with his mink and is di-
rector of the Indiana Mink Breeder
Association. Preparing these expen-
sive animals for market requires
the very best equipment and ma
terials. That's why Mr.. Sheetz uses
