Cerise Refine Choice
In Capital Handicap
Al Laurel Opening

Laurel'S plans for tomorrow's
spring opening were all set to-
day, except for one slight hitch
having no bearing on the racing.
Issuance Of the tracks license to
sell alcoholic beverages was held
up temporarily pending a meet
ing this afternoon between the
liquor commissioners of Anne
Arundel County and track Of
ficialS.
Post time for the first race
viii be las pm. throughout the
meeting, and about Is horses
are expected to go to the gate
for the $1O,O00-added Capitol
Handicap. which headlines the
opening eight-race card.
Anne Arundel County authori-
ties asked Laurel officials to to-
days meeting to discuss q letter
from Sheriff Joseph w. Alton,
jr., who complained of laxity in
serving drinks to minors during
the fall session. The track didn't
hear of the complaint until yes
terday and was taken completely
by surprise.
Cerise Refine Favored.
While licenses are in the name
Of the track owners. all bever-
ages are dispensed by a conces-
sionaire. Laurel probably will
get a clean bill of health, but
failure to do so wouldn't inter-
,fere with racing.
Cerise RENE, A. year : old
daughter of Requested, owned by
Mrs. Ada L. Rice of Chicago,
stands out as the early favorite
IN the 35th running of the g.
furlong Capitol. Mrs. Rice nom
mated three horses for the race.

Tomato Support

"TRY THIS PLAN for making a
support for tomato vines. Take an
old car or implement tire, lay it over
the small tomato plant, and pack a
layer of straw around the plant in
side the tire to keep the plant moist.
Then place a piece of woven wire
fence or other stiff wire over the
tire and straw, so that it will hold
the fruit off the ground when the
plant grows up through it. This will
help materially to prevent black rot
where the tomatoes touch the
ground."-Mrs. E. L.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1954-05-01

'WHEN SET out my tomato
plants in the spring, I cover them
with large cans cut open on one end
and about three-quarters on the other
end. This protects the plants from
wind damage, cutworms, hot sun,
and to certain extent from frost.
When the plants are large enough,
I remove the cans, string a piece of
baling wire through them, and hang
them on fence post until the next
spring. In this way I do not need
to look for cans every year. Mrs.
L. P.

Gardening Helps

WHEN PLANTING garden seeds,
drop an onion set in each row every
ten or twelve inches. Even if seeds
start slowly, the onion sets quickly
mark the rows so that cultivation
can be done before the vegetables
come up and the weeds thus be kept
down. The onions are eaten before
the vegetables need the space.
When planting the garden wear
a clothespin apron to carry pack
ages of seeds. Then you always have
the seeds with you when ready to
plant and it saves walking to end
of row for then" Mrs. C.E

Lawn Moving Hint

"HERE IS A handy hint about
moving the lawn. I find it helps 10
NOW it in different direction each
time. Thus I NOV it east and west
one time, north and south the next
time.

way I do it. Cut off piece of your
discarded milk hose, just enough
to make one coil on the bottom of
a tin can about the size of your
bulb. Fasten the can on the end
of long bamboo fish pole, and
reach up and unscrew the old bulb
and screw the new one into place.
You will be much surprised how
easy it is to make the change.
If the old bulb is broken, you
may have to put in another coil or
two of the hose to get enough pres

agronomistS suggest another way
to use the land following grains
of small grain next spring. They
point out that Sudan grass plant
ed in the spring will help meet
pasture needs during the sum
mer.
Some farmers like to devote a
limited area to establish a one.
year, tWo-crop rotation of Sudan
grass for pasture in the summer
and small grain for pasture IN
late fall and early spring. This
approved as a good arrangement
if the soil is well drained and is
not too subject to injury by
trampling from the animals.
It's a common thing during
this warm weather for Maryland
farmers to walk into a poultry
house and find birds with wings
dropped, and painting or breath
ing rapidly.
That's a sure sign birds are
overheated," says Wade H. Rice,
University of Maryland Exten-
sion poultryman.
Rice adds that another good in
dication of overheating is a re-
duction in feed consumed and an
increase in water consumption.
And hot birds usually hunt a cool
place against damp earth or con-
crete floor.
The Extension poultr y m a n
urges poultrymen to reduce these
cases of heat proStration by such
methods as good ventilation,
aluminium roofing and cooling the
roof with water from an ordinary
lawn sprinkler.
"But when heat-prostr a e d
birds are found they need imme-
date and individual attention." he
adds. "In many cases birds can
be saved if they are not too far
gone. At least, it's worthy try"
The same treatment is recon-
mended for laying hens and
broilers. First, get them out of
the building and take them to
shady place where the air circu-
lation is as good as possible. Next,
place the breast downward on
damp ground or a damp sack.
Do not douse the bird in water.
A little wetting of neck and I'M
der the wings may be helpful, but
is easily overdone.

Spray 'Extenders'
Farmers appreciate the in
creased yields they get from U.S.
ing insecticides on crops, but they
would be even more appreciative
if they had insecticides that didn't
have to be applied SO often.
1t looks like scientists are find
ing the solution.
r. L. Bissell, University of
Maryland Extension entomoIo-
gist, says U. S. Department of
Agriculture researchers have
found that the addition of chem
ical "eXtenders" to some insecti-
eide sprays greatly increases the
time they remain lethal against
insects.
In comparative tests carried
out by chemists and entomolo-
gists of USDA's Agricultural Re-
search Service, DOT oil solution
sprayed on the foliage of spruce
and pine trees was effective
against flies for less than IS days.
However, when methyl ethyl ke-
tone was used instead of oil as
solvent for DOT, spray residues
on the foliage killed flies for 60
and more days.
Similarly, the lasting effective
ness of other insecticides, such as
aldrin and lindane, was improved
by addition of chlorinated ter
phenyls "a resin-like materially to
the spray. When used as normal
oil or emulsion sprays, aldrin and
lindane retain their fly-killing
ability less than 10 days under
outdoor weather conditions. In
combination with the chemical
extender, they porvided nearly
perfect fly control for more than
102 days.
'These experiments show pos
sibilities of better insect control
in the future" BisSell says. "The
materials are not now generally
available"

Research Center, Beltsville, Md.

Poultry Day Opens Sept. Is;
State Fair Farm Exhibits
Cover Agriculture's A B C's

ure OF TINS exhibit, winch was set
up by the National Live Stock
and Meat Board in cooperation
with the University of Maryland,
is titled, Twenty Favorites with
Ground Meat"
Malcolm H. Kerr, Extension
animal husbandman at the Uni
versity, is at the exhibit to point
out that ground meat has become
more an dmore of a favorite in
the meal, largely because of the
wide variety it provides and its
economy appeal.
This particular display is
unique in that it presents the
ground meats most used in each
of four major areas of the United
States-the east, south, north and
west.
Especially popular in the east,
according to the display, are such
ground meat dishes as pennywise
porterhouse, and lamb and bacon
whirls. On the other hand the
southerners prefer chile meat de-
luxe, meat pie with catchup bis
cults, and cherry meat mullins.
Favorite ground meats in the
north are shown to be meat balls
and spaghetti, corned beef hash
ring with mached potatoes, and
liver patties. Predominant west
ern styles are such dishes as bar.
becued ground beef, fiesta lamb
patties, mock chicken legs and
others.
This is only one phase of this
interesting exhibit, of interest to
homemakers as well as all visi-
tors. A Meat Board representa-
tive is on han dto explain the
various displays.
Although the homemaker buys
and prepares most of the meat
served in Americas more than AZ
million homes, only about so per.
cent of these homemakerS can
name eve nthe more commonly
purchased cuts.
Malcolm II. Kerr, University of
Maryland Extension animal hus-
bandman, says this surprising
fact was revealed in tests made
by the National Live Stock and
Meat board.
Perhaps that explains why
Maryland homemakers are show
ing so much interest in a meat
Identification contest which is a
feature of the educational meat
exhibit at the Timonium State
Fair. The exhibit, installed by the
board in cooperation with the
University of Maryland, is located
in the livestock building, near the
judging pavilion.
Visitors to this exhibit are
shown a display of Is enlarged
pictures of meat cuts, including
beef, pork and lamb. These cuts
are numbered from l to Is. Those
entering the contest are given a
card which lists the names of the
Is cuts. The object is to match
the names of the cuts on the card
with the numbers on the pictures.
The list of Illustrated beef cuts
includes porterhouse steak, blade
pot:roast,' short ribs and others.
Pork cuts shown include loin
chops, boston butt, and spareribs.
Among the lamb cuts are shoulder

BE- chops, freched leg of lamb and

chops, freched leg of lamb and
lamb riblets.
The boar dpoints out that diff
ferent meats vary in size of cuts
and in color of meat, but the
muscle and bone structure in all
meats are the same. Bones are
important factors to consider in
meat Identification according to
the Board, since many cuts are
named after the bones.
Homemakers especially, will
want to test their knowledge of
meat cuts by entering this con-
test, and a representative of the
Meat Board will be on hand to
explain this and other exhibit
features.
Did you know that the average
person in the U.S.A. consumed
.6A ounces of meat daily last
year and that this amount of
meat provided AZ per cent of the
daily protei nneeds, Is per cent
of the calories and 43.5 per cent
of the iro nneeded daily by a nor
mally vigorous man.
These are among the facts en-
phasiZed in the educational meat
exhibit near the judging arena
of the livestock building at the
Timonium State Fair The exhibit
was installed by the National Live
Stock and Beat board in cooper
alton with the University of
Maryland.
"ViSitors to this exhibit are
finding that it is chock-full of top
notch practical information that
everyone should know" says
Malcolm H. Kerr, Extension ami
NAL husbandman of the Univer-
sity.
Pointed out in this exhibit is
the Importance of meat as a rich
source of protein - the element
needed for body growth and for
resistance to infections. Also
brought out is the RICH ranking
of meat in furnishing minerals
these being necessary for build
ing rich, red blood, sturdy bones
and teeth.
Meat is also high lighted as an
excellent source of vitamins, es-
sential for efficient use of food
and for well-being and body
vigor. The average daily amount
of meat consumed per capita last
year, TO reXample, furnished "a
per cent of the needed daily sup
ply fvitamin A-30 per cent of
the thiamine, 26 per cent of the
riboflavin and SO per cent of the
niacin-the three latter being B
VitaminS.
These and other features in
this exhibit are attracting a lot of
interest. Visitors will find Mr..
Kerr on hand to help explain the
exhibit and answer questions.
Wheat can also be treated with
so percent copper carbonate, at
the rate of two ounces per bushel.
