State Group Leases
Lake at Park For
Community Park Area

The state Game and Inland Fish
Commission has taken over the Mt.
Lake Park lake for the purpose of
making a community park area out
of it. Edwin NJ. Barry, chief Of Inland
Fish for the commission, stated that
the lake had been leased from its
owner, Ray Right, for ten years, with
a year to year renewal lease.
The lake, which has already been
drained, will be dug out by the use
of bulldozer with the cooperation
of the State and County Roads Com
missions. The lake will he made deep
enough for swimming and will be
stocked with fish. A parking lot will
be made where there was once an old
boat house. Picnic tables will also be
set up
George F. Coddington, Jr., fish cul-
turist, said that when the lake was
drained, they found only catfish, suck
crs, and goldfish. Coddington stated
that the lake would be stocked with
about 800 to 1000 adult bass and blue
gils sometimes during the month of
October which is when the lake is
scheduled to be opened to the pub
lie. There will he gathering of people
who would like to examine the guam
tity and quality Of the fish
Barry said that the state had also
planned a community park in Acct
dent, similar to the one at Mountain
Lake.
Mayor Joseph limbaugh had
talked about similar pond at the
former limbaugh farm west of town,
now owned by the town of Oakland.
The land, which is in the midst of
the water farm for the town, would
hive to be leased to the Game and
Fish commission for long term, and
this was considered inadvisable, since
this as the source of part of the
towns water supply.
The lake at Mt Lake Park was
used for many years as swimming
place, and clearing it of mud and
debris should again make it suitable
for years to come.

Spinach, Neav Cool Weather Crop Here
Shows Promise Along With CauIfoqver

the way, as it was found the demand
was great the latter part Of August
and in September.
Mr.. Duvall said he had heard Of the
possibility of growing cool weather
crops in this county and came here
last September and during the winter
made dozen trips, checking weather
records, taking soil samples, finding
stone-free soil for best spinach grow
ing and concluded that conditions here
should produce the crop he desired.
He is confident of a successful ven
ture, in spite of the unusually hot
weather thus far this summer.
Other Crops Favorable
Some twenty farmers who have
formed a vegetable growers coopera-
tive, are of their own accord, with
the assistance of the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad and the Extension ser
vice, discovering that they can realize
a comfortable profit from the growing
of cauliflower
Members of the cooperative are now
growing so acres on their own farms
and with some helpful rain in the near
future some outstanding yields are
expected. The marketing program is
already set up through r. L. Wrinkle

Cool weather crops in Garrett
county continue to attract the at
tcntion of business men and farm
people, and this year an additional
vegetable is being tried out with good
results in prospect.
A fifty-acrc area of spinach is be-
ing grown by the Produce Pre-Pack-
aging association which is being per
sonally supervised by w. Lee Duvall,
treasurer of the concern. The trial is
being carried on on the farms Of Will
Friend and James Hamilton in the
Gortner and Red House areas, where
the prescribed acreage was rented
from the owners.
VI. Davall told of the possibilities
of his endeavor before the Lions club
members at a recent meeting. The pre-
packaging Of vegetables began about
ten years ago all over the United
States, he related, pointing out that
-packaging had nothing to do with
frozen foods.
Spinach \ Main Item
1t was found that spinach was a
main item but it was also found that
from June to October every year the
packaging plants had to close because
spinach was not available. An attempt
by farmer near Canada to grow
spinach five years ago pointed out

Parasitic Insects
Released to Control
Corn Borer Spread

It's not that we don't have enough
flies in Garrett county, but we don't
have the right kind That's the opin-
ion of agriculturists who have re
comfy imported $500 of them-to try
to control the spread of the corn
borer.
John H. Carter county agent, has
received three different mailings of
these parasitic insects from labor
atory in Morristown, n j., and they
have been released in the Accident
area where the corn borer is doing
the most damage.
Mr. Carter said the corn borcr has
been found to be pretty well over the
entire county, and that to stamp them
out the support of every person who
grows corn is needed. The pests can
be controlled by blowing under all
corn stubs in early spring before the
moth can emerge from where it has
withered. The flies or wasps obtained
to reduce the threat, are calculated
to have their effect also by eating the
borcr before it enters the corn stalk
Where the corn borers are at work
they cause the stalk to weaken and
fall over. They will also devour the
ears OF corn. Garrett county was not
bothered with the corn borer until in
