accepted a challenge from the
Southern Maryland Club to COM

With Bill Leeteh

of various sizes feeding over a
large area. Anglers have been
taking them right along on every
sort of lure. ranging from the
one-pounders up to fish in the
seven-pound class. Farther up
the coast. even eight and nine
Founders have not been uncom-
mon.
If you go after these fish, be
very sure of your boating &C
commodations. Advice to us up
and down the coast is to that
effect. Most charterboat cap
tains are booked far ahead, some
as many as three to five weeks,
and regular log jams Of anglers
occur each week end at popular
ports. So great has the pressure
become around Oregon Inlet and
Morehead City, N. c.. and other
southern spots that shippers TAX
ing parties to the Gulf Stream
are requiring a $25 deposit in ad-
vance.
Through mid-week, both the
Potomac and Shenandoah were
in good shape for black bass ad-
diets. with Monocacy running
unusually clear. The bronze
backs are very definitely partial
to live bait at this season. Be-
sides, it is too hot to do much
casting.
Trout streams in neighboring
States still harbor a fair supply
of fish, but their waters are low
and the fish are in small pockets
and deep pools and consequently
hard to catch. Few people fish
these streams during this season,
consequently if you can take the
heat. you'll find yourself pretty
much alone, something ardently
desired by every died in -the-wool
trout angler.

FORE and AFT
By MalcoIm Lamborne. lr.

Capital Power Boat Associa-
ton is planning an inboard-
outboard regatta here July 26
that promises to provide some
kind Of endurance contest-at
least for the officials.
In fact. some old regatta
hands are saying it's not a re-
gatta but a marathon. The show
begins at 1880 am. with the
first heat for the AU stock out
boards. There will be heats every
Is minutes until the middle of
the afternoon when the commit
tee will be given a Commute
breathing spell to prepare for
the onslaught of inboards.
Inboards will be sent off
every Is minutes, too, and the
final heat is not planned until
$50 pm.
CPBA voted last week to add
D and E service runabouts to
the program when it was real
lied that several members COM
pete in these classes but were
not represented on the program.
The association prides itself on
the fact it is an outfit run by
and for drivers. Hence the de-
cision to add two more heats to
the program.
If the regatta continues to ex-
pand and increase in popularity.
officials will have to give serious
thought to a two-day regatta
next year.
w. r. Boyer, secretary of the
Capital Yacht Club. has some
mighty big shoes to I'LL. General
Chairman Eddie Carr of the
Presidents Cup Regatta has ap-
pointed Boyer chairman of the
illuminated yacht parade COM
mittee.
This very successful phase
which opens the power week
end of the regatta in mid-Sep-
tember had been under the
supervision, until his death, of
Jack Miller of Corinthian Yacht
Club. Carr has made a wise move
in assigning the job to a leader
Of another prominent club.
Boyer has named two of Capt.
tails busiest yachtsmen to his
committee, Boots Boothy and
Dick Jones. It looks as though
this part Of the big marine show
is once again in good hands.
The big event this week end
for sailors is Baltimore Yacht
Clubs annual regatta on Middle
River off Sue Island. It's a three
race series for the popular one
designs tomorrow and Sunday.
At the other end of the bay,
Hampton Yacht Club will be
sponsoring an all-sail regatta on
Hampton Creek and out on
Hampton Roads. A traditional
curtain raiser is the Annapolis
Hampton race for big boats
which started yesterday and will
be winding up today.
Color movies of South River
Yacht Clubs mid June sail
regatta will be shown at a meet
ing of the club July IA at 8 pm,
according to Commodore Bus
Grubbs.
BY the end of today the mems
sailing champion of the Chesa-
peake will be known. The series
is being run in Star boats off
Baltimore Yacht Club.
Horace Walker and Jack
Blank are flying to Detroit this
week end for the first Gold Cup
boat races of the season and
expect to line up some entries
for the Presidents Cup Regatta
on the Potomac in September.

johnson Named To
Head Milk Group

Herbert c. Johnson, Jr., 1864
Selma Road, Springfield, Ohio,
was named today as full-time ex-
ecutive secretary for the Ohio Milk
Producers Federation, at called
meeting of the executive commit
tee and the board of directors of
the Federation in Columbus. Les
lie c. Mapp, Dayton, Ohio, Fed
Grafton president, announced that
Johnson will assume his new posi-
ton on March /.
Mapp said that ,JohnSon'S ap-
pointment is a direct result of the
growing concern being felt by
members of the Federation about
the serious problems confronting
sdairy farmers in Ohio at the pres
ent time. Some of these are the
recent declines in producer prices
for milk they must sell, the tight
ening cost-price squeeze being ex-
perienced by the producers, and
the increasing threat of imitation
dairy products, which have COM
bined to create an urgent need for
the states dairymen to have full
time representative who will be
concerned directly with their well
fare.
Mapp declared that Johnson's Of
flee, which will become the state
headquarters for the Federation,
will be established at the Hotel
Chittenden (Parlor Al, Columbus,
Ohio. Before taking this position,
Johnson has been Farm Planner
for the USDA Soil Conservation
Service in Clark County (Ohio),
since 1916.
The Ohio Milk Producers Feder-
alton, according to Mapp, was or
ganized in 1885 to promote the in
terests of its members, and the
interests of all producers and con-
sumers of dairy products. He said
the Federation in its present MEM
bership represents around 10000
fluid milk shippers who sell in the
major cities Of the state.

Farmer PIoWs But
Once In 4 Years

Sloping land on Howard Calls
dairy farm in Summit County is
in full production although he
plows it only once in four years.
Call does not grow cultivated
crops on this land. He sows mix
ture of alfalfa, ladino clover and
bromegrass in oats every four
years and uses it for hay, silage
and pasture.
For the first two years he max
es most of the meadow into hay
and silage. He uses it more for
pasture the second and third years
and pastures close in the fall be-
fore it is plowed.
Earl Jones, extension agronom-
ist at Ohio State University, says
grass sods are heavy enough to
keep erosion to minimum after
plowing Call rotates his pasture
plots and uses lime and fertilizer
on meadows.
Jones says Calrs cropping sys-
tenn is adapted to dairy and beef
breeding farms on s-oping land.
He also points out that the system
is good where heavily travelled
roads cut through farms or where
distance from barn and water eli
inmate some fields for pasture
purposes.

MARcH'S
BIRTHSTONE

March is the month of the aqu-
amarine and the bloodstone, both
symbols of courage. The aquamar-
inc, a beryl gem stone related to
the emerald, is the choice of many
because of its clear, blue-green
beauty. 1t has the depth and tone
of sea water and, like the sea,
varies in the intensity of its color,
from delicate pale blue to cool
green.
The ancients wore this stone, en-
graved with the head of the Sea
God, for protection against the
perils of the sea. 1t is noted in the
Vision of Piers the Plowman," a
poem written about 1877, that the
wearer of the aquamarine was
miraculously protected from the
ravages of poison.
AquamarineS are famous for
versatility and subtlety of color,
making them particularly becom-
ing to women, whether blonde or
brunette. In rings, clips and other
jewelry for women they are often
set with diamonds. Aquamarines
are mined in Brazil, Madagascar,
and the United States.
The bloodstone, a dark green
chalcedony spotted with red in
clusions of jaspar, is found in ST.
IBERIA, and India. 1t commentaries
the crucifixion in that there is an
old legend that a piece of green
chalcedony lay at the foot of the
cross on which Christ was cruci-
fled. Later, during the Middle
Ages, this stone was often used for
treatment of blood poisoning and
the healing of wounds.

Fertilizer Said
Best To Combat
Lower Prices

Washington, ID. c. Agricultural
authorities are telling farmers
throughout the country that in
creased fertilizer use is their best
way to meet the lower farm prices
higher costs squeeze.
Under present circumstances.
farmers naturally must keep a
weather eye out so as to reduce
expenses on items which do not Of
fer adequate returns. Such is not
the case with fertilizer expendi-
lures; in fact, the dividends from
its proper use make it the farm
er's best bargain. In 1910, 81 in
vested in fertilizer brought a So
dividend in extra crops; six months
ago this investment brought an
average return of S3.75, with divi-
dends on certain speciality crops
such as tomatoes running as high
as SIS. Even with a slump in mar
ket prices, far greater than ex-
perienced in recent months, fert-
ilizer will remain the best guard
ian of the farmers economic well
fare. BY increasing output per
acre through greater fertilizer use,
a farmer can maintain and even
bolster his net income.
The major explanation for this
favorable situation lies in the fact
that fertilizer prices have not risen
as fast as prices for other COM
modities the farmer buys. During
the past II years, according to the
u. S. Department of Agriculture,
prices paid by farmers have gone
up almost 100 percent and farm
wage rates have jumped 140 per-
cent, but fertilizer prices have in
creased only so percent. Relatively
low fertilizer prices prevail, de-
spite increased labor and trans
portation charges, and bagging,
processing, equipment maintenance
and replacement costs.

state.
AS result, local governments
have always been subsidized to a
certain extent by state tax money.
Originally, the money was granted
to them on a percentage basis
from the sales tax, but lately it
has been doled out to local govern
fnent in terms of dollars per year,
rather than on a percentage basis.
This means that each session,
the local governments have to
come to the legislature and plead
for sufficient funds to supplement
their local tax sources in order to
run their governments. And as
state costs have been rising, SO
have local costs.
To further muddle the situation,
the legislature seems to increase
the burden of local government
each session by assigning to them
new functions which cost money to
carry out. Since local governments
have few tax sources left, they
must come to the state for more
and more money.
Governor Lausche had advocat-
ed that local governments be given
approximately S18 million dollars
per year to divide among them
selves. Some Republican leaders
advocate a return to the per cent
age system SO that more intelli-
gent planning can be made for use
of the money to be received from
predictable sources, rather than
desist from planning every two
years until the legislature makes
its Whims known.

BEES, STEEL NEED
PLANS FOR FUTURE

Planning for the future is as
important to the beekeeper as to
the owner of a steel mill says
Charles A. Reese, extension apiar-
ist at Ohio State University.
Reese says there is no better
time than now to overhaul equip
ment, including hive bodies, tops,
bottoms, frames and supers. Bee
keepers also may need to change
apiary management to correspond
with changing agricultural practic-
es.
Many operators will save money

VILLAGE LANDMARK SAVED
GOSHEN, N. Y. Up - When the
village board recently found itself
hard-presSed for funds to repair
the village clock in the Presbyter-
ian Church tower, out-oftown help
saved the day.
John w. Richardson of White
Plains sent word that he would
put up $500 Of the estimated ST 300
repair cost because as a boy at
the village school he learned to
tell time by the village clock. An
other Goshen native, DR.. c. Hud-
son Thompson, offered to match
the amount as a memorial to a
beloved uncle, former organist at
the church. The village now thinks
it may be able to scrape up the
other $500 if sentiment does not
move other individuals to contrib
ute.
1t was just 100 years ago that
subscribers to a town clock fund
first decided to give tinepiece to
the village.
