Mental Patients

For the sixth year, the Men
tai Hygiene Society of Maryland
is inviting the general public to
share their Christmas joy with
the 1000 patients in the state
mental hospitals.
The object of the annual
Christmas Project is to provide
with holiday wrapped packages

in these hospitals who would 9TH
erwise be forgotten. In 1858, the
Project benefited nearly half of
the patients.
Gifts in special demand for in
dividual patients include-cigar-
cites, playing cards, new or
used), hard candy and station
cry. Cosmetics, costume jewelry,
handkerchief and belts for men
are frequently requested. Gifts
for wards and day-rooms can
provide relief and recreation for
hundreds of patients throughout
the year: electric trains, pianos,
radios and TV sets, all kinds of
recreational equipment.
Individuals or organizations
wishing to participate in this pro-
ject may get in touch with their

Says Wood Chips
Are Best Mulch
Around Home

The chips are down for the
American landscape and. the re-
suit is a superior much. The
chips in point are wood chips
coming popular as protective
ground coverings for trees,
shrubs and even lawns. They
are coming into existence in in
creasingly large quantities as a
result of power clippers now
being used by tree men to dis
pose of branches that formerly
were hauled to dumps a n d
burned.
Demand for the chips is so
keen, they are in short supply at
the moment. In the years ahead,
Homer L. Jackson, research oil
rector of the Davey Tree Expert
Co., says supply should be ade-
quate. Davey researchers have
pioneered in the use of wood
chips as a mulch on their own
experimental grounds. And Mr..
Jacobs reports this material has
a number of advantages over
commonly used peat moss, straw
and grass clippings, m on
others.
Wood chips prevent wee d
growth, discourage seeding
sprouting, help prevent soil
erosion on banked lawns and
resist crusting over, averting
moisture losses from run-off. In
addition, the chips last longer.
Farmers, too, have found that
wood in mulches and soil amend
ments helps improve soil struc-
ture and improve crops.
In the use of wood chips on
the home grounds, extra nitrogen
should be supplied tree or shrub,
according to Mr.. Jacobs. Liberal
applications of nitrogen fertilizer

there are enough comic situa-

Heaviest outbreaks of blackleg
usually occur in the spring, but
calves should be vaccinated ahead
of time so they can build up
solid immunity. The disease often
strikes so swiftly that several an
imals may be lost before vaccina-
ton can establish a barrier in the
herd against it.
Any area with a history of
blackleg is likely to be permanent
ly dangerous, the Foundation en-
phasized. The injecting germs can
survive in the soil for years.
This is one of the chief reasons
why fresh outbreaks occur in the
spring." says the Foundation. "A
livestock owner may decide not to
have his new calves vaccinated be-
cause he has experienced no losses
in recent years. Before he knows
it, the germs in the soil have pick
ed their victims and it's the same
old story of dead calves and fl
nancial losses"
Outbreaks may also occur as
the result of improper vaccination,
neglecting to re-vaccinate animals
that were originally vaccinated
when very young, and overlooking
animals still within the susceptible
age bracket.
Calves vaccinated at the age of
two or three months should be re-
vaccinated after weaving. The Sec
ond treatment established an inn
munity lasting II to 18 months,
which will usually protect the an
imal beyond the susceptible age.

Mennonites Aid
In Food Relief

Mennonites in this community
through their Mennonite Central
Committee are initiating a relief
program to aid distressed refugees
and war sufferers in battle-ravag-
ed Indo-China.
A first shipment of 80 tons of
canned beef, soap and clothing is
enroute to the state of Wet Nam.
These relief supplies were shipped
in response to Investigations by
Delbert Wiens of Reedley, Calf,
the Committees first representa-
tive who has been in Saigon since
August.
Three relief workers from Com
mittee projects in Formosa and
Korea will be transferred to assist
Wiens in the distribution of relief
supplies and to carry on relief and
rehabilitation services. They are

from FormoSa, and Adam EWert
of Mountain Lake, Mimi, and Mrs.
Eva Harshbarger, a former men,
ber of the Bethel College faculty,
North Newton, Kan, both from
Korea.
More than 100000 refugees have
already been moved from northern
to southern Indo-China. Expert
enced relief workers who have
seen Chinese famines and Euro
pean refugee problems describe
the situation as "the worst it can
be-" The most urgent need appears
to be the resettlement and reha-
bilitation of these refugees, ac-
