growers will be interested in the
effect of various levels of nitrogen
on yield, quality and maturity-un-

Similar tests with tomatoes may
help answer the question, How
much more fertilizer, if any, is
needed when irrigation is used?"
Prof. Z. M. Rain of the horticul-
ture department has several new
tests on chemical weed control.
The effect of irrigation on chemical
weed control is being studied.
Chemical weed control in sweet po-
tatoes and peppers is also new

Prof. E. p. Brasher will display
over 80 varieties of tomatoes, in
cluding many Delaware crosses.
There are % different experiments
now under way at the substation
on fruits and vegetables.
Variety testing on many differ
ent vegetables is always important
to the vegetable grower, says Rob

turist. "At Field Day you can see
the results first hand" he adds.
Transportation will be provided
to all plots and research workers

Beach House Opens
July 26 At Lewes
CONTINUED from page one)

The emphasis of the Beach House
program is on providing the most
possible fun in the sunshine at the
beach. The stan each year tries 10
develop what skills each child has
and to emphasize health, physical
buildup. group living. and character
development.
The recreational program offers
variety Of activities. The children
viii go canoeing, fishing and hik-
ing. Almost all the children learn
to swim, and personal charts are
kept which show progress. The pro-
gram also includes crafts, games,
dramatics, and singing.
Children attending the first ses-
sion which opened June 20 have
had rides on the Lewes Fire Com
pany trucks, a picnic at Beaver
Park, and walk on the Rehoboth
Beach boardwalk.
This year the Beach House has
accepted larger proportion of
children with speech and hearing
defects. The board has stated that
the site of the Beach House is of
best use to children who can bene-
At from bathing and swimming.
For many otherwise healthy chill
dren, speech and hearing defects
are no restriction to normal sum-
mer fun at the seashore.
Throughout the program and all
group experiences, the aim is TO
helm each child TO have a sense of
independence ard achievement. The
development of group spirit, high
personal standards, and increased
spiritual insights are stressed at
all times.
During the second session, a
large portion of the children will
be from downstate areas, and will
represent Blades, Milton, Milford,
Dover. Georgetown, and Lewes. /.
