take longer than 6 weeks to ma
ture can normally be increased
by sidedressing them with ferti-
lizer This fertilizer should be
placed to one side of the row
and about three inches away.
Fertilizers that are ideally suited
to SidedreSSing are 5-1O-5,
1864 and the special garden
fertilizers. The customary rate
is one quart per 100 feet of row.
You can again use your jar spout
arrangement for this job. After
the fertilizer is put down, cul-
tivate it into the soil with a
rake. 1t is best to sidedress just
before a rain is expected or
prior to watering.
Other Methods.
A sure way to insure an ac-
cessible source of plant food for
hill crops is to mix a level tea
spoon of a good garden fertilizer
with the soil in the hill before
planting the seed. A thorough
mixing is essential.
When setting out plants. mix
Evening star., 1953-03-08

one tablespoon of fertilizer with
the soil in the bottom of the
hole, add / to 2 inches of soil,
and then set the plant, leaving
a depression about / inch deep
around the plant. Fill this de-
preston with water Immediately
after planting in order to help
settle the soil around the plant
roots as well as to make the
plant food in the fertilizer more
readily available.
In side dressing plants such as
tomatoes, the fertilizer, one ia
blespoon per plant, should be
applied in a circle at least 6
inches away from the stem. The
best time to put on this addi-
tional fertilizer is after the fruit
has set but before it has matured.
In the case of head crops, such
as cabbage. make the side dress
ing soon after the head starts
forming.
Evening star., 1953-03-08

Plants are living things and
they need food-plant food. Un-
less growing plants have access
to adequate quantities of neces-
sary plant foods in forms that
can be used, they grow slowly or
they die.
The plant foods that are
needed most for growth in the
garden are nitrogen, phosphoric
acid, potash. calcium and mag
nesium. The first three can be
supplied by fertilizer while the
last two are usually provided by
lime, although fertilizers furnish
some calcium and magnesium.
There is only one way to tell
whether your garden needs lime
and that is to have the soil
tested. No wise gardener under
takes lining without knowing
for sure that lime is needed.
Remember this-too much lime
is far worse than no lime at all.
If you think you may need lime,
ask the Soil Testing Laboratory
at your College of Agriculture
for directions on taking the
sample.
FertiliZe Early.
The most critical period in a
plants life is just after the seed
terminates. Then the food re-
serve in the seed itself is nearly
exhausted; at the same time the
root system is so limited that it
comes in contact with only a
small volume of soil from which
to draw plant food. For good
yields, therefore, you must be
certain that an adequate supply
of available food is in the i'm
mediate root zone.
Probably the surest way for
the amateur to provide enough
food is to use fertilizer broadcast.
To insure good uniform distribu-
tion throughout the seedbed, one
quart of some such fertilizer as
an 5-10-10, or a special garden
fertilizer (many of which are
manufactured by reliable con-
cerns) should be broadcast for
each 100 square feet of ground
before spading or plowing. A
like amount should also be
broadcast after the ground is
turned. The inexperienced per-
son should broadcast half of

Wise Use of Fertilizers
For Heavier, Better Crops
Bx MoIcoIm H. McXiekor

the fertilizer going back and
forth one way of the garden and
the other half going the other
way. The double application, one
prior to and the other following
plowing, insures a thorough dis
tribution throughout the seed
bed. Splitting applications also
makes for more uniform spread
ing.
In choosing a fertilizer for the
home garden, 1t must be remem-
bered that many crops will be
grown and that you should Sc
lect one that will furnish plant
foods in such ratios as will best
suit most plants. A 5-10-5 has
already been mentioned as one
ideally suited to most crops.
Likewise. the special garden
fertilizers on the market are tai
lored for the needs of most
gardens in this area. The first
figure in a fertilizer analysis re-
fers to the percentage of nitro
gen; the second figure, percent
age of phosphoric acid; and the
third figure, the percentage of
potash
Band Application.
Those more experienced or
who are willing to take more
time may want to use the band
method of fertilizing row crops.
This method is used by most
commercial gardeners since it
insures a fuller utilization of
plant food furnished by the
fertilizer First. stretch a string
and plant the seed in a row di-
rectly under the string. Leaving
the string in place, make two
burrows, each about 2 inches to
each side of the seed row. The
fertilizer burrows should be deep
enough Sc it can be placed l to
1R inches below the seed or
seed piece. One quart of ferti-
lizer per 100 feet of row (two
quarts for both rows) should be
distributed in the bottom of the
burrows and then covered. A
good gadget for putting the
fertilizer in the burrows can be
made by equipping a glass jar
with one of the metal spouts
used by a gasoline filling station
for dispensing bulk motor oil.

Famous Britsher Who Saw Stain Is "Suspec Under the
McCaFran Immigration Act

LONDON = Commander Stephen
King-Hall is distinguished British
author and publicist, an impeccable
anti Communist, who publishes the
we'll known National News Letter
from 1852 Buckingham Palace Road,
London S. w. l. In recent issue,
he has given fairly typical overseas
reaction to the McCarran Act and
the American attitude toward foreign
visitors, thru mythical converse
ton between U. S. immigration of
ficer and a late British visitor to
American shores.
American Official: Have you ever
been to Russia?
British Visitor: Yes.
40: For what purpose?
BY: To see Mr.. Stain.
40: Was it social or political
visit?
BY: Political
40: Were you then engaged in
joint activity with Stain?
BY: Yes, l was giving him all the
help in my power.
40: Did he need this help?
BY: Most urgently.
40: Do you consider that if you
had refused to give this assistance
his government might have collapsed?
BY: Most probably. Have cigar?
40: Not till this inquiry is over.
Have you ever been a radical?
BY: Yes, in the early years of the
Goth century. Later on, | changed
my mind.
40: Do you support any form of
government repugnant to the prin-
ciples of the American way of life?

A stranglehold on the Public Pow
er developments of the past 20 years
is slowly developing in Washington
as the private utility lobbyists get
in their good ticks.
The highlight of the attack on ex-
pansion of power facilities was the
give-away of the Hells Canyon pow
er site in Idaho to a Maine corpora
ton. 1t was followed by statement
from Pres. Eisenhower explaining
that he had the Tennessee Valley Au-
thority in mind when he told South
Dakota audience recently that 1--WE
must fight against creeping social
ISM
Less spectacular but equally inn
portant are quieter events that are
cutting the ground out from un-
der IVA, the Southwestern Pow
er Administration, and the Rural
Ele ctr fication Administration.
Most of them are via the apProp-
riations route.
Slashed from the IVA budget was
SCI, 100000 earmarked for two new
steam-plant units at Fulton, Tenn,
and continuing work on other hydro
and steam units. These units are
needed if IVA is to meet its grow
ing power commitments. The play
is to create power shortage in the
valley, according to IVA officials,
and then blame the IVA for it. The
cities and co-ops which can buy power
only from IVA will be the hardest
hit by the cutback in the program.
The Southwestern Power Admins
tration, which sells power produced
by federal dams in the Oklahoma-Ar-
kansas-TeXas area, also buys power
from steam plants to meet the needs |
of its coop customers. To do this it |
has continuing fund into which goes
the money from the sale of power and
out of which is paid the bills for the
steam power. No federal appropria-
tons are involved as sales equal or
exceed purchases but the SWPA re-
quires congressional authorization to |
use this money.
The Truman budget authorized a
continuing fund of $5,65O,OOO for
the SWPA. The Eisenhower bud
get cut it TO $3,736, 900. The House

| of Representatives has slashed it to
$150,OOO.
The Rural Electrification Admins
tration is the federal agency which
helps rural electric co-ops by lend
ing them money at low interest rates
and providing technical services. Its
administrator, Claude Wickard, was
forced out of office early in the
game.
The House appropriations commit
tee has now cut the loanable funds
of the REA to $165, 100000 which is
$129,000,000 less than the co-ops say
is needed. Administrative funds have
also been slashed to the point where
$50 employees, mostly technicians,
have to be fired. Also pending is a
bill by Rep. Clerdy (R-Mich.) in
creasing the interest rate on REA
loans from two to four per cent.
Power customers in the southern
Missouri area have experienced an
other twist. They were to get power
from the Bull Shoals Dam which was
nearing completion. When the De-
tense Department said all the power
from Bull Sohals would be needed for
aluminium production, they were told
they would get power from the Table
Rock Dam on which construction was
just starting.
The Defense Department, however,
has stopped construction on the Table
Rock Dam and no requests for funds
for its completion have been sent to
Congress by the Budget Bureau

S215 million grain elevator here has
been postponed indefinitely by the
city dock commission because the in
terest rate on revenue bonds has ris-
en- too high.
The commission also rescinded a
grant of 100000 made in February.
1t was to have been used to start
work on the structure.
Increase in the interest rate from
" per cent to Az per cent was said
to have put the cost of financing the
project higher than income from
rental earnings which would have
retired 30-year revenue bonds.
The first interstate crude oil pipe
line was completed from Bradford
Field in Pennsylvania to Bayonne,
New Jersey in 1888.
