stock market declined this week
as the result Of what Wall Street
commentators called emotional
Trading.
The state of President Eisen-
mowers health and whether he
would run for Office again were
assigned as reasons for market
movements almost every day.
Declines marked the first two
sessions because, it was said.
there was doubt whether the
President would run for second
term.
Advances marked the second
two sessions because, it was said,
the improved state of his health
made it more likely that he
would run.
On Friday the market ended
mixed with prices unchanged on
average for the day.
On the week the Associated
Press average of go stocks de-
Iclined 81 and closed at $178.30.
The fall of in prices for motor
shares also was prime mover
i'm the decline. Steels followed
the cue of the motors.

Control Measures
For Corn Stalk
Rot Are Advised

Ohio farmers can minimize their
losses from corn stalk rot by fol
lowing several control measures
this spring, an Ohio State Univer-
sity extension plant pathologist adj
vises.
B. F. Johnson says no one prac-
tice, or combination of them will
give complete control of stalk rot,
but these will help:
Use resistant hybrids, such as
K62, Isl, C54 and W64. No hy-
brids are immune.
Treat seed corn with captain or
thiram for Seeding blight. Captain
and thiram come in powder form.
About q of an ounce per bushel
is sufficient. Farmers may treat
their own seed for cost of only
few cents an acre, or they may
have it treated for them by local
elevator or seed store. Seeding
blight is caused by some of the
same fungi that cause stalk rot.
Balance soil fertility Wy apply
ing fertilizer according to soil test.
If no test is taken, use COM
plete fertilizer.
County Agent, Fred T. Grimm,
saps stalk rots caused much trouble
in some Ottawa County fields last
year.

this program will create prob
lens of great magnitude.
Follow-through Urged
"To solve these problems and
to insure the efficient and eco
nomical provision of the high
ways contemplated in this pro-
gram, the ow-through by
both public officials and high
way users is imperative.
The committee recommended
organization of special advisory
committees. representing all
highway users, to aid in several
studies. Pending Federal legis-
lation would authorize studies
into equitable distribution of
costs among various beneflciaries
of the Federal-aid highway and
desirable sizes and weights of
motor vehicles using them, a
Federal-State re-evaluation of
needs of the interstate system.
The report also cited the vital

Problems involve highway ad-
ministration. modern highway
laws with adequate provisions for
