By Jones Birchfield-

| Art said he started the job
over a week end. He found he
couldn't get it done. so he took
the next week off. You guessed
it. he had to take still a second
week off and then didn't get the
house finished
Art has all of the exuberance
of the first year in the country
tits fine" he says, that is, if it
doesn't kill me-"
\ Il
I would like to have a picture
of me milking. Since the weather
has warmed up. and the grass is
plentiful, I've discarded the barn
and now milk out in the field,
wherever I find the COW.
Milking time always turns out
to be something of a social gath
ering. The mare has to investi-
gate the milk pail. just to be
sure there isn't any grain in it,
and afterward usually stands
by with her head hanging over
the COW while I milk.
Then the steer and the two
beef heiferS gather around,
watching from my back. They
stand in semicircle, fascinated,
until I have finished. Then they
turn away and go about their
grazing.
My cow seems to like this field
milking. When she sees me
coming along with the pail, she
starts to meet me. She comes
alongside and stops at just the
right angle for me to begin.
We do have a fine time in the
country.

Two Diseases
Affect Roses

Because of the humid climate
In the Washington area, you'll
need to follow a regular disease
control program for your roses if
you want vigorous plants. DR.,
L. o. Weaver, Extension plant
pathologist, University of Mary
land, says such a program is es-
sentially a preventative one. It
means protecting rose plants
against disease causing or
ganisms.
Recognizing rose diseases and
the damage they cause is the
first step in a disease and insect
control program. According to
DR.. Weaver. the most common
rose diseases are black spot and
powdery mildew. He recon-
mends, during the hot summer
months. the use of ferbam as a
spray Use at the rate of two
tablespoons per gallon and ap-
ply at Today intervals. DR..
Weaver points out that busting
isn't usually as effective as
spraying for disease control. but
if busting is done regularly
control can be achieved.
Black spot appears on the
upper surface of the rose leaf,
forming circular outline with
an irregular fringed border. In
fected leaves turn yellow and
dop prematurely. The disease
thrives during moderate tenn
peratures, frequent rainfalls and
high humidity.
Mildew, a powdery white fun
gus growth, appears on the
leaves, stems and flower buds.
1t distortS the leaves and re-
duces the vigor of the plant.
While the rosebuds are still
young, mildew covers them.
Then they fail to open at all or
trey open imperfectly. High
humidity and moderate temper
a.ueS are most favorable for
t'o development of mildeW.

Liquid Nitrogen
Costs Reduced

Liquid nitrogen used by
United States farmers for the
first time last years. changing
the fertilizer picture consider
ably, VPI specialists say.
The beauty of nitrogen in liq-
uid form is two-fold to most
farmers: 1t costs about half as
much as nitrogen in bags, and
it can be applied with a mini
mum amount of work.
Equipment for applying liquid
nitrogen has been developed to
sell at prices we'll within the
reach of most farmers. Com
mercial applications also may be
secured in some areas, at a cost
OF about So or SO per acre, in
Guiding application.
There is one drawback to Stor-
age and application of the liquid
IN" The corrosive action of the
solution will eat away ordinary
metal containers and equipment
This is overcome by the use of
aluminium or stainless steel, OF
repla ICING ordinary 50-gallon
storage drums every one or two
years.
Farmers used four solutions
last year. varying from 81 to Al
per cent nitrogen. the same ones
used for years by commercial
fertilizer mixing plants.
The 81 per cent solution can
be applied directly to the top of
the soil. The other three must be
administered at a depth of two
or three inches.
Another encouraging factor in
the LIQUID nitrogen picture is the
virtual certainty that the cost
will drop still more, as produc-
ton and consumption increase.

Tomatoes Need
Side DRESSING

The tomato is now grown in
almost 100 per cent of home
gardens in every State. 1t may
be used raw, canned, made into
juice, catsup, sauces, conserves,
pickles, etc. One writer has
described lis ways of prepara-
ton. In food value it is loaded
down with ascorbic acid VITA
min c., has a good amount of
vitamin A, some of the B vita
Minis, plus calcium and iron.
Tomato soils need good drain
age but may vary from sandy
loans to heavier clay and silt
loans. A lot of organic matter
is needed. Prepare the soil
thoroughly and when you think
the ground is in the best condi-
ton you have ever seen, give it
one more working for luck and
you will be about right. Well
rotted stable manure brings good
response. Before blowing or
spading the garden broadcast 2
pounds of 5-10-5 fertilizer to
100 square feet. Add another
3 pounds to same area while the
seed bed is prepared. Side dress
ing while the plants are grow
ing may be made in bands in
shallow trenches 8 inches deep
on each side of the row.
Marglobe, Rutgers and Pan
America are good varieties and
all highly wilt resistant.
Use only strong, stocky, thrifty
plants. Set a little deeper than
they had grown previously.
Water at setting time. Be sure
the soil fills in around the roots
completely without leaving air
pockets. Be sure to plan on at
least 6 plants per person. A
bushel when canned will make
IA quarts.

June is the time when there
will be bare spots in the flower
beds and uncertainties in the
minds of gardeners as to changes
and additions to fill the spots
where the first burst of bloom in
early spring has passed.
Summer perennials are just
about to bloom and the earlier
ones are dying down. In this re-
gard there is an item of para
mount Importance. Label the per-
ennials while they are still bloom

may not remember where each
plant was placed and you will

cut down. The hidden bulbs, both

June Is Time to Fill Vacant Spots
With Variety Of Pretty Annals
By liIIion WRIGHT Smith

up to 3 feet. My preference is
for the "cut-and-come-again
variety, which is medium in size
and height of bloom. The pas
tel pinks are lovely and har-
monte with all the blues and
violets of the veronicas, platy-
codons and asters.
There is still time to start
marigolds and they are most re-
warding for late summer. They
ask only the easiest soil prep
aration and take care of them
selves. The old lemon queen
and orange king have produced
lovely and interesting families.
Yellow supreme and limelight
are without a trace of the old
disagreeable odor of their foliage.
The low-growing French mari
colds fill vacant places in a
brief time and are especially
lovely with dwarf ageratun,
sweet alysSum and heliotrope.
1t is too late to get petunias
from seed, but the nurseries are
we'll stocked with a great variety.
The white variety, Igloo, is de-
light as an edging for nicotiana
which makes rapid growth. There
is no lovelier edging than Pc
tunias in any of their gay colors
and clumps of them will take
care Of any bare spot.
POrtulaca for Banks
There always seems to be some
hard little bank or terrace in the
best of gardens that def1es our
best efforts to bring it into the
picture. Try to forget the old
backyard of dubious conditions
with whitewashed stones out
lined with portulaca. It is a
gypsy sort that delights in hard.
dry soil and even though it can
not boast any patrician ancestry,
1t comes in beautiful shades of
pink, rose, wine, yellow and
cream, both single and double
You can put it in the hard place
and forget it until you see a
burst of color.
For the shady corner, there
are fuchias, heliotrope and be-
gonias. Linaria, often called
Baby Snapdragon, is another
satisfactory filler which can be
sown late and give free-fowering
vivid as we'll as pastel tones. For
plants about 18 inches high in
all-summer bloom there is moth
ing like lantana, but you will
have to buy the plants. It grows
vigorously and blooms with the
simplest care and its rose, yellow
and white flowers come continu-
ously until frost. You may pot a
few for your sunny window and
they will continue to bloom in
doors.
Another suggestion which will
add interest is to put in straw
flowers CHelichrysum). They will
give you bloom in late summer
and provide winter arrangements
that will add color to the pods
and grasses you will bring in
from out of doors.

than the Jap and China Pinks
Dianthus). They grow quickly
from seed and as edging or just
scattered they add delightful
patches of color with their own
heady perfume.

Junior Senator. addressing the
convention, said the Justice De-

guilty Of either treason or Of

Senator Mccarthy. said these
individuals, whom he did not
name, must be guilty of one or
the other"
I'm either event." he said,
their cases should be presented
to a grand jury and they should
be made to answer for the
agony. blood and tears they have
caused. If we, as Republicans,

that we should never again be
entrusted with the running of
this nation"
Cites Three Things.
Senator Mccarthy said the
Senate Armed Services sub
committee had found three
things about the Korean war.
He listed them as:
"One-Americans died because
Of an ammunition shortage.
"Two-The American people
had given the AcheSon-T
administration every penny
asked for arms and ammunition.
"Three-That those in power
at that time were directly re-
sponsible for the shortage of
bullets and resultant needless
deaths Of young men,"
What does this Senate report
mean?" Senator Mccarthy asked.

By The Assoeiused Press

MADISON, Wis, June 49,
Wisconsin Republicans today
censured their senior Senator,
Chairman Wiley Of the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee.
for his opposition to support the
proposed Bricker amendment to
the Constitution.
A resolution insisting that
Senator Wiley reconsider his
stand was adopted by voice vote
of the 1000 delegates attending
the one-day State G. o. P. con-
vention here. The delegates
then adopted a second resolution
calling on the entire Wisconsin
Congressional delegation to sup
port the amendment. !.
The proposal of Senator
Bricker, Republican, o. Ohio. is
aimed at restricting executive
agreements made without SEN
ate consent, such as those made
by Presidents Roosevelt and
Truman at the Tehran, Yalta
and Potsdam conferences.
Would Protect Rights.
Senator Bricker says the
amendment would prevent any
Of Wisconsin. to pay for mail it
from undermining the funda-
mental rights Of the American
people or from sacrificing es-
sential attributes of sovereignty"
kilograms urging impeach-
ment of Senator Wiley were re-
ceived by chairmen of county
delegations today. They were
sent from Milwaukee and signed
by the Committee for Consti-
tutiona1 Government" Scat
tered boos greeted Senator Wiley
when he prepared to deliver his
speech.
Senator Wiley, commenting on
the kilograms, called the Bricker
amendment "the most dangerous
thing that has ever been brought
before Congress.
"All I know is that my position
is supported by President Eisen-
hover and his cabinet, who tes-
titled against the amendment, "
Senator Wiley added.
