Family Living
Costs Not
To Decrease

Maryland homemakers will find
their 1854 food bill not much differ
ent from 1858. That is the observa-
ton made by nutritionist Janet
Coblentz, University of Maryland
Extension Service-based on the
1854 outlook for the nation. Miss
Coblentz said shoppers can expect
some bargains in durable goods
and clothing.
Since the beginning of the cen
fury in this country, she said, there
has been a gradual shift in eating
habits from cereal products and
potatoes to such foods as dairy
products, eggs, processed foods and
vegetables. This is explained be-
cause of rising consumer income,
improved food production and mar
keting techniques, and expanding

knowledge of good nutrition.
Abundant supplies of meat, eggs.
potatoes, sweet potatoes and some
fruits will bring down prices on
these items. Prices on fresh fruits
and vegetables and dairy products
will be about the same as last wear
Prices of bread and bakery pro-
ducts, coffee, rice, shortening. lard
and sugar will be running a bit
higher because of costs of process
sing and marketing. This year we
may expect increased consumption
per person of margarine, shorten
ing, frozen fruits, juices, sweet
potatoes, chicken and some dairy
products.
The slight price decreases likely
in durable goods and clothing NAV
no more than cancel out rising
costs of services, especially if food
prices stay the same. This means
that the family whose budget is
made up largely of clothing, house
furnishings and equipment costs
will have lower living costs.
City renters and others for whom
personal services and medical bills
are large budget item will prob
ably experience higher living costs.

Cabbages Thrive
In Rocky Soil

THE FLATHEAD Lake region is
well known for its production of sweet
cherries, but East Shore orchardist
Chef Nixon is one of the residents who
has proved that vegetables also thrive
in the areas rocky soil.
In their orchard tract garden, Mr..
and Mrs Nixon produced these two
king sized heads of cabbage, one of
which tipped the scales at &c pounds
and the other at % pounds. Several
cabbages in the 10 to Is pound bracket
were also harvested.
Potatoes grow big in the orchard
country, too. Three tuberS of the Sebago
variety grown in the Nixon garden
weighed respectively three pounds, two
and one-quarter pounds, and two
pounds, while just across the fence
orchardist Fred Kelso came up with
a Melted Gem which measured over 10
inches in length.

As to the time of application,
DR.. Ronningen says, fright away"
He points out that 20 to 40
pounds of nitrogen equivalent per
acre will make good grazing for
live sto&l this fall. With the cost
Of high analysis fertilizer about
IS to 20 cents a pound, that would
mean fertilizer cost of from 81
to So per acre. Low analysis ferti-
lizer costs more for each pound of
nitrogen applied.
How much return can be eX-
pected from this investment?
"A conservative estimate" the
forage specialist says, would be
Il to y ton of extra hay for each
acre treated. If we estimate mixed
hay at $35 per ton, the extra hay
growth due to fertilization would
be from So to SIT per acre. That's
roughly double the cost Of ferti-

Nitrogen Fertilizer
Boosts Fall Grazing

One way Maryland farmers can
stretch short supplies of hay and
silage is to stimulate pasture pro-
duction this fall.
The source of stimulation is
nitrogen fertilizer, according to
DR.. Tom S. Ronningen of the Uni
versity of Maryland agronomy de-
partment.
DR.. Ronningen doesn't recon-
mend fertilizer for any and all
pastures, however. He says the big
gest returns will be from perma-
nent bluegrass pasture or rotation
al orchard grass pasture where the
grass cover is good and the soil
has a good supply Of moisture.

Inquiries Received
For Christmas Trees

People already are beginning to
inquire about Christmas trees at
the district forestry department
office in Cumberland. In fact, Will
liam II. Johnson, district forester,
said wholesalers began calling the
office during the latter part Of
July, wanting trees averaging
seven feet in height. Johnson said
only about 1000 are available from
state owned land in Garrett and
Allegany counties.
Private landowners will be able
to supply quite a few trees to con-
sumers in the area, it was thought.
The industry is being expanded in
Western Maryland where for the
past three years an average Of one
million trees year have been
planted in the two-county areas.
The trees planted mostly on pri-
vately owned land, should be ready
for market about 1858 when thin
ming will take place.
Farmers or private landowners
with open, clear land may secure
trees for reforestation purposes
from the state forestry depart
ment. The more popular Christmas
trees which can be grown with
success locally are white spruce,
Norway spruce, Scotch pine and
red pine. Firs, which are the most
popular, have successfully been
grown in some sections of this
county, Johnson said.

We who live in Garrett County
take for granted the fact that we
have quite a bit of wet land. In adj
dition to the glades and swamps
there are many seepy areas on hill
sides. Outlanders, and particularly
! those from lower-lying parts of
eastern Maryland, are always sur
prised to find so much wet soil on
our plateau. One fact that may
surprise anyone is that more tile
drains have been laid in Garrett
County than in all the rest Of the
state. Drainage of wet places must
have been one of the activities of
our very earliest farmers, if you
can Judge by the old rock and pole
drains you run into on present
drainage jobs.
Land drainage has come to be
regarded as a conservation prac-
tice for several reasons. One is
that often when wet areas are
drained, it is possible to take bet
ter care of the sloping lands on
farm. Or drainage of wet spots
may be necessary to the proper use
of adjacent well-drained land. Very
strictly speaking, you could hardly
apply the term conservation to the
drainage of large marsh or swamp
areas. While many of these places
are practically useless as they are,
they are not actually deteriorating.
And they may be needed lot
more fifty or a hundred years from
now than in this time of farm sur
pluses. Sometimes it is even hard
to justify drainage from the stand
point of economies. You can often
buy an acre Of good land for what
it costs to drain an acre of swamp.
However, an additional acre of
farm land right at home is worth
a lot more than just any acre, so
there is seldom any question of
the ACCESSIBILITY of draining wet
spots and the smaller wet areas.
Usually it takes between 800 and
500 feet of tile to drain an acre.
If you can get Henry Petersheim
with his ditcher Gf this is free
ad, maybe Henry won't appreciate
it, for he always seems to have
plenty to do the digging will cost
five cents a foot. That, plus ten
cents for tile if four-inch will do,
adds up to $500 to $500 cash
and not too much labor for con-
verting an acre of useless land in
to good cropland. Perhaps the cost
Of lining should be added to the
above figures, for most Of our wet
soils need three and a, half to five
| tons of lime after draining. What
ever the conservation and economic
aspects, one thing is certain. When
putting in tile drains it pays to do
the very best job you know how.
That means careful location of the
lines, digging the ditch deep
enough, care in placing the tile
and backfilling, and building a
good outlet.

lizer."
While recommending nitrogen
fertilization of good bluegrass or
orchard grass pastures as a meas
ure to help farmers over the pres
ent shortage Of feed, Dr. Ronning-
en- thinks it is much more impor-
tant to plan long-range programs
for increasing pasture production.
He points out that nitrogen proba-
bly, won't be needed if clover is
maintained in pastures He urges
farmers to have soil tests made
regularly on pastures, and add
lime and fertilizers as needed.

POLICE QUELL
NEAR-RIOT IN
DOWNTOWN SPOT

One tavern patron calling
another "a hillbilly' set off a
near riot in a Madison-st
drinking spot early Tuesday
morning and subsequently
seven men ranging in age
from 19 to % were found guilty
of disturbing the peace when
brought before Municipal Judge
Don Wargowsky.
The 'hillbilly" angle was
brought out in testimony by Pa
trolmen William Keesor and Will
liam Robel who made the arrests
after twice ordering the group to
disperse and go home.
Patrolman Keesor said he was
first called to the Erie Tavern at
11:55 p. m. where a disturbance
was going on. Noise from the af-
fair, he said, could be heard a
block away. Keesor testified that
he broke up the light and ordered
all participants home.
Shortly after, he received an.
other call to the same tavern and
this time, accompanied by Officer
William Robel, found the same
group causing another disturb
ance.
Two of the participants, Conley
ISaacs, %, Railroad-St, and Ger.
aid Collier, %, visitor from Rog-

the others told to go home.
Contrary to orders, authorities
said they insisted on visiting the
pair in Jail.
Subsequently all were charged
with disturbing the peace.
IsaacS and Collier pleaded gull
