Low Age In Serious Crimes

Juveniles by statute but

number of the serious crimes in
Washington, said Capt. John F.,

Tracing the lowering of the
ages at which serious crimes
such as murder, rape and as
sault are committed, Capt.
Ryan told the Southwest Citi-
zens' Association the age has
dropped from a pre-Pearl Har-
bor level of from 81 years and UP
to the present low of Is years.
Capt. Ryan called on the citl-
zens to help the police. He said
citizens hire policemen to be

criminals who are constantly at

said, has not truce, no peace, no

BEHIND
HOME PLATE
BY H. S. DOUGLAS

In order to get real look at his
squad, Paul Campbell, manager OF
the Packets, has his boys playing
inter-suuad games every day.
The fact that the Packets have
been losing these training camp
games doesn't mean thing, as the
sole purpose of them is to get some
line as to whether or not the lads
presently assigned to the Hagerstown
squad have got enough on the ball
to play in the Piedmont league.
AS l have said many many times
before, it is simply impossible, in the
early days of spring training, to get
anv real idea as to how many OF
the boys that went down to Winter
Gardens will actually be on the team
when the season opens.
One thing is certain, however, and
that is that Campbell, and the owner
of the club, Gene Raney, will do
everything in their power to get
from the Washington Senators Farm
System the type of players that Will
make the Hagerstown Packets a
team that we all can be proud OF.
So don't worry because the boys
are losing these training camp
games, because what they are get
ting is experience in actual COM
petition, as we'll as showing their
manager what they can do.
Have you got your tickets yet for
the opening game at home on Sat
urday night, April "a? If not, you
can get them from any of the Boy
Scout Troops in Hagerstown, or at
various stores and business places
throughout the city
Let's really fill the stadium for the
first home game of the year.
The three Washington County
leagues are getting lined up for the
coming season; the Hagerstown Lit
tie League is making plans for an
other division, while new Little
League is being formed in Williams
port.
Twill have more to say about these
leagues, as we'll as the Pony League
and the Junior League, in future
issues.

Record Turkey Crop Pushes
Prices to Low Levels
BY GILBERT GUSLER

TURKEYMEN ARE TAKING a sharp
pay cut this year. They raised record
crop, 9 per cent larger than last year,
but prices are lowest since 1912. Costs
haven't changed much from last year.
Profit, if any or labor income from
turkeys will be the smallest in many
years.
The trouble is too many turkeys. Good
returns on the 1858 crop led growers
to expand flocks. They raised 81, GAS, 600
compared with 56,23O,OOO last year and
the previous record of 60, 1863, 900 in 1882
The crop consists of 42.e million
heavy-type turkeys, up per cent from
1858, and 1871 million of the light type,
up 16 per cent. Of this years crop
only 20 per cent were heavy-type COM
pared with rs per cent in 1852. Allowing
for the difference in weight, total
tonnage of turkeys may be little or
no larger than in 1852. However, the
government bought per cent of the
heavy-type birds in 1852, so that this

years supply for commercial distri-
button is greater than ever before.
Heavy Early Marketing
About As per cent of the crop had
already gone down dressing lines by
the end of October, if growers held to
their late summer intentions. These
marketings would account for 4O.4 per
cent of the heavy-type and SIT per cent
of the ight-type turkey crop. 1t appears
that roughly 535 million pounds Of
turkeys will remain to be marketed on
November compared with 500 million
pounds on the same date last year.
While the increase in turkey supplies
for the rest of the season does not look
so formidable, other meat supplies are
heavy. Increases over last year are
mostly in chicken fryers and pork. Per
capita supplies of chicken are the
largest on record and red meat sup
plies are close to record levels. With
other meats so plentiful, the needed

SEVERAL INQUIRIES have come
over the desk recently regarding le-
gumes in irrigated pastures. 1t seems
that the main questions concern the
amount to seed per acre and the proper
ton of stands of grass and legume in
the mixture.
Both questions are pretty much re-
lated. Many times, however, the stand
of the Iegumes will be affected by the
kind of seeded and the size of the
legume seed.
Usually in Montana we think in terms
of alfalfa, red clover, Ladino clover and
birdsfoot trefoil as the legumes to use
in an irrigated pasture.
A good, firm seeded is necessary in
all cases in obtaining stand and the
firmer it is, the less amount of seed
should be used per acre.
Usually 1 to pounds of all of these
legumes will be enough to furnish a
proper balance between grass and le-
gume after the pasture is two years
old. The first year it is grazed, the
legume, particularly if it is alfalfa or
red clover, will be too heavy in proper
ton to the grass. In such cases, it
makes rather hazardous grazing con-
dition because of the likelihood of bloat
in animals.
For this reason, many of our pro-
ducers are following the practice of
reducing or even eliminating the legume
at the time of seeding and adding it
after the grass has become established.
Usually it is harder to establish later,
but does give freer use of the pasture
where it is one year old.
The greater use of birdsfoot trefoil
as the legume in irrigated pasture is
helping to solve this problem Birdsfoot
trefoil does not cause bloat and even
though it is more difficult to establish,
it provides safer pasture combination
of grasses and legumeS.
Because birdsfoot trefoil is harder to
establish, the practice of seeding " to
pound of red clover with it is becom-
ing common. The red clover furnishes
the legume requirement while the birds
foot trefoil is becoming established and
will gradually disappear under proper
utilization.
