CONSERVATION
 NOTES
By Lew Hanks

Let's hope our last Matanuska blow of the season is over. Crow ng weather can come anytime to suit me. With spring growth come cut worms, root maggots and weeds, remember. The Extension Service has a couple of circulars 7vailable on control of these pests. let these circulars, read them, md follow them, ard you can save lot of headaches. They were written by our local Experi- nent Station people. They are he last word on pest control.
 There is also a circular out on orome grass seedlings. It will pay you to read it. I have looked over quite few brome seedlings in the past. Stands ranged from excel lent to poor. The poor stands were usually lost in the fall. It is easy to do when using a nurse crop.
 f you seed with nurse crop YOU have three musts; these are: Seed the nurse crop ight-fer- tilizer heavy - and cut the nurse crop early. You either do these three things, or you walk over the field the next spring kicking at a few scattered plants and praying that your stand will thicken up that summer. Your prayers are answered, the stand 1oes thicken up, but with foxtail The nurse crops can do your dirt better watch them.

American bakers and housewives
are paying the highest prices for

This fact is pointed out by E.
E. Kelley, Jr., President of the
American Bakers Association,
commenting on a statement by
Congressman Clifford Hope Of
Kansas that the price OF bread
has gone up although farmers
are getting less for wheat than
they were in January 1913.
Pointing out that there is more

eye, Kelley said:
"That january 1913 price was
the highest in 80 years and it
lasted less than q month. 1t also
is interesting to note that the
carryover of wheat into the new
crop in 1913 was less than 200
million bushels. None of il was
government controlled"
This year the carryover was
near 9O0-million bushels Of which
all but 5O-million was govern
ment controlled. Beginning in
l949, the carryover has climbed
steadily and government con-
trolled supply has increased,
Kelley said.

that farmers would get more for

Future Looks Bright
For Egg Market

A two-cent increase in the price
of eggs during the past week and
predictions for a continued firm
market for the poultry product APP
pears as one of the brighter spots on
the farm outlook, local poultry men
were pointing out last week.
Bluffton's Wholesale egg men note
that the normal seasonal price de-
cline for eggs has been much less
than usual, land that mid-January
prices were near the level of the
previous north.
Agricultural Department reports to
the effect that there has not been any
substantial decline in egg prices dur
ing the entira past year were Veri-
fed by local dealers.
Button dealers say that there are
not as many eggs in storage now as
there were a year ago, and that the
demand seems to hold up better than
usual. On the local scene, a certain
amount of sickness this winter among
the focks has helped keep production
down and prices up.

Tastes In TOmbstohes
Haye Changed THU Years

Tombstone statuary over the years
can be seen in its varied contrasts,
in a stroll through old and new sec
tons of Maple Grove cemetery at
the crest of the Grove street hill.
In the broad expanse of the ceme-
terry, well-kept in winter as in sum
mer, the severe lines of modern,
grave stones stand out in marked
contrast to the more elaborate mast
erpieces of earlier years.
Have you, for example ever seen
the life-size angel complete with
wings and a trumpet, which stands
atop one impressive stone? Or have
you ever stopped to look at another
full-size figure of a woman repre-
senting a mourning muse which tops
another.
A curled-ub statue of a sleeping
baby is carved on the top of one
of the stones in the older section of
the cemetery Two stones have sta
tuary in the form of reclining lambs.
On the top of another stone sets
a finely sd1lptured pair of baby
shoes and stockings.
A repeated theme is statuary in
the form of a broken tree trunk,
probably emblematic of an untimely
end; there are several tombstones
with elaborate Gothic archway eff
fects, and a countless number of
stones are surmounted by urns and
vases.
Another unusual tombstone is a
huge boulder, placed in early days,
for regulations of the cemetery now
forbid such markers.
