INSECTS

The first mimosa webworm
infestation has been seen in
Maryland. Spray with either DOT
or lead arsenate. Rose blooms
are being damaged by Japanese
beetles, Asiatic garden beetles
(which are a little smaller than
Japanese beetles, and solid brown

Der beetles. Spray forage and
buds with a DECENTRALIZATION COM
bination spray or dust about once
a week. The malathion is added
to check spider mites. Elm leaf
beetles have been heavy this
year. Locust leaf miner damage
to black locust is becoming
noticeable in some areas. On

recommended. For the spray

Sentinel Forerunner?
Old County Newspaper
Found by Resident

A page out of Montgomery
County's history was disclosed
last week by the discovery of
an issue of The Rockville
Journal and Montgomery
County Advocate, d tie d
March 4, 1854.
The yellowed, four-page news.
paper was printed and published
by "Braddock & Fields" in Rock
vile. 1t is believed that Fields
was the same Matthew Fields
who started The Sentinel in 1855.
The paper was discovered in a
bureau drawer by Howard l..
Murphy. RID No. 2, Silver

was brought to his home by his
mother, now deceased, from her
home at Spencerville.

LAWNS
During hot dry weather the
grass should be allowed to grow
fairly high. The mower should
be adjusted. so.that the grass will
be two inches tall after cutting.
The higher cut will help shade
the ground and help to keep the
soil cool and preserve what
moisture there is. A close cut
dries out the surface of the
ground quickly with resulting
damage to the roots. Then the
lawn will begin to brown.
EVERGREENS
The red spider mite may be a
problem during dry weather,
especially on jumpers and Hem
locks. If your plants look sickly
and are losing their good green
color, they may be infested with
this mite which is usually more
abundant during dry weather. If
you want to check TO see if the
mites are on your plants, take
a piece of white paper about
letter size and hold it under a
branch. Shake the branch and
then study the paper carefully.
If there are mites, they will APP

mark of pencil point on paper.
They can be seen easily as they

spray of water from the hose to
dislodge them, or if the infesta-
ton is severe, use a spray of
malathion.

and set this off with two medical
ads, each a column long, purport-
ing to cure, great variety Of
ills real or imagined.
In fact, the whole paper was
dominated by medical ads claim
ing absolute cures of almost
every ailment in a medical die
tionary.
One of them started in a wildly
enthusiastic vein: FITS! FITS!

remedy.

For instance, Messrs. Braddock
and Fields complained bitterly
that, "The roads continue in a
wretched condition" and that
spectators in wheat were affect
ing prices of breadstuffs. "a
screw is loose somewhere" wrote
the editors.
Nor did the mighty B&O
escape their pens. It seems the
board of directors of the line
preferred as little publicity as
possible concerning their meet
ings. Wrote Braddock and
Fields: This perhaps may be
polite, but for the life of us,
we cannot see why there should
be any secrecy in regard to
their views and acts"
The paper carried late news
from Europe, brought to America
by steamship. Some of the items:
THE Emperor Napoleon makes
last appeal to the good sense
of Emperor Nicholas; the English
government has advertised for
ships to carry troops to Turkey;
the Turkish cabinet has dismissed

Russia"
The editors also carped at the
Maryland Legislature for making
no provision to publish laws in
county newspapers. "How is it"
they asked, that they expect
laws to be obeyed when not one
man in so ever has an oppor-
tunity of reading them?"

specific areas where real relief can
be given to struggling small bust
ness concerns, Scott said.
The Senator said the proposed
legislation would breakup long
standing bottlenecks in the revenue
laws that have been slowly choking
small business to DEATH.
Scott said the bill hinges on a
provision that would Strongly en-
courage considerable expansion of
business houses and small indus
tries.
The key provisions, he said "per-
mits a business or industry to
count certain percentages of gross
income spent for capital expendi-
lures as operating expenses.
Many companies, Scott said,
"would realize a technical tax
savings by buying new equipment,
trucks, remodeling buildings, con-
verting machinery, etc. While it
would be a tax savings, it would
pump many millions of dollars into
the economy.
The Senator said adequate safe
guards are in the proposal to pre-
vent tax windfalls. Under it, he
said, a company would be allowed
to treat as operating expenses so
per cent of the first $4,000, 80
per cent of the second $4,000 and
20 per cent of the third $4,000
that is re-invested in depreciable
property or inventory.
"This would be - tremendous
help to small companies that want
to expand but have little or no
money left for such things after
taxes, Scott said.
The bill also includes:
/. Provision for self-employed
people, and others who are not
covered by an organized pension
plan, to set aside up to $1,000 a
year for retirement purposes with
accompanying tax benefits.
2. Changes in depreciation poll
cies to allow businesses to treat
used equipment that is purchased
the same as new equipment for
tax depreciation purposes.
8. Provisions for allowing cor
porations to be taxed as partner
ships or corporations.
A. Authorization for the mini
mum accumulated earnings credit
of business to be increased from
$50, 900 to 100000.
5. Requirements that the Treas
ury Department simplify tax rul-
ings and either abide by court de-
cision in tax regulation enforce
ment or carry cases in question to
court.
