''The heights by great men reached
and kept,
Were not attained by sudden
flight;
But they while their comcanions
slept
Were telling upward through
the night"
This column is dedicated to
Mrs. Ida Radcliffe and her staff
of Sc co-workers at Northwestern
High School. Those of you who
missed the dedication of Miami's
l1s million dollar comprehensive
high school will never know what
really you have missed. Words
elude me at this time to bring to
you the kind of picture / would
like. However, suffice it to say
it was one OF the grandest spec
tacleS I have ever witnessed.
The program, comt:lete in its
reticence and succinct in its brew
ity, brought home many points
which gave the over-capacity
audience much food for thought
and meditation.
This pillar is convinced that the
heritage we share is a precious
one and it is hoped that the stu
dents and patrons of Northwest
ern will preserve it to genera
tons yet unborn.
Accepting the keys Sunday Mrs.
Radcliffe, charming in her role
of principal of this august enter
prise, had this to say: "This is
concrete evidence of a new
awakening of public interest in
the needs of education and the
role that good schools play in the
development of good citizens. It
is the answer to new under
standing and new demands that
we provide our children with the
very best educational opportuni-
, ties a free people can afford.
Before she sat down the affable
Mrs. Radcliffe craved the indul-
gence of the vast audience for a

Seeding Time For
Lawns, Pastures

Now. Now. Now is the best time
of year to seed that new lawn OF
new pasture. You will normally
have the pest success, too. with re-
seeding an old lawn or an old pas
ture if the work is done now, ad-
vises George Vapaa, Kent County
Agent. There are several reasons
for il. Most of the hot weather is
over, so that young seedlings will
get a good start. Competition from
weeds is less than in the spring if
good seedbed has been prepared.
Rains and moisture usually can be
regulated a little better now than
in the spring. Chances of success
are less after September 18th, be
cause the grass should go into cold
weather with to 5 inches of top
growth.
"A good lawn or pasture is the
result of good care and manage
ment," says Claude Phillips, asro-
nomist at the University of Del
aware. Fertilizer. for example, is
probably best applied about Sep
tember LIST. Most home owners use
too much lime on lawns. A soil test
will give the best indication as to
how much is needed. A sample OF
soil delivered to the county agent
at the post office building in Dover
will be tested and recommenda-
ton given at no charge"
Seed mixtures will differ for
varying conditions. Sunny. shady,
sandy, or wet soils do better with
different mixtures of seed. The
county agent will be glad to help
you with your particular problem.
In general, for lawn mixtures,
about 1919 of ryegrass sometimes
identified on the tag as Poa trivia
lis) is enough. There should be a
minimum of $3.50 Kentucky blue
grass, anu varying amounts of red
top or fescue. Shady locations
should be seeded with minimum
of 500 creeping red fescue. Some
people do not like clover i'm lawns,
but clover does tend to build up
the soil somewhat.
Inc lutdl DdSLulc li1AtuAC JhOAAA0
about 500 grass and 500 clover
for grazing. The basic seeding
recommendation for Kent County
is z pounds of orchard grass, 1
pound of ladino clover and 3
pounds of alsike clover per acre.
other grasses may be added de-
pending on soil and moisture con-
ditions.
How to seed is also important.
An even distribution of seed and
a firm, well-prepared seed bed are
musts. A fluffy, loose seed bed may
cause failure. Be sure to pack
down the seed with a roller or
tamp.
Moving of a new lawn should
not be done until the grass is four
or five inches high. Never clip any
lawn closer than two inches. Most
mowers are designed so that they
will cut close to the ground. But
this simply stunts the plant and al
lows weeds to come into the lawn.
Lawns and pastures have similar
problems and similar needs. The de-
sired end result is good, even
growth that stays healthy over
number of years. The job is neither
too complicated nor too difficult.
But it does require that the JOB De
lone in the right way at the right
time.

To provide space for your

an even better idea is to put a

This should be about as high
as the child's head, and equipped
with a small table top where he
can put toys. You can paint it
