LOCKWOOD, Md, LR- Profile of the soldier of the future:
 He wears headgear much like a football helmet His special cloth ing protects him from any form of enemy attack. He casually climbs obstacles and crosses ditches with the aid of a rocket belt strapped on his back.
 He moves almost effortlessly with the help of zero ground pressure creeping boots," and he carries light all-purpose super gun with 150 rounds of ammuni- tion.
 This isn't the product of a science fiction writer. It comes from the Army's chief of combat developments.
 And these things will begin to take shape about 1870, Maj. Gen. Harry w. Johnson told a closed door meeting of Army and civil ian workers at the Army Chemi- cal Center here.
 Most of what he said is classi- fled, but the Army did disclose a few things.

Tot, 2, Tries Smokes, Now
 Enjoys , Cigarettes Daily

PEORIA, H., tR - A 2-year- old Peoria boy about a month ago picked up lighted cigarette and smoked it. Next day he wanted another. He got it.
 Now the little tot, Lawrence Smith, smokes five cigarettes a day. His mother, Mrs. Lawrence Smith, says she is worried because she can't break him of the habit.
 i've tried" Mrs. Smith said. But Lawrence cries and cries until he gets his cigarettes, He wants his 'moke'."
 Mrs. Smith, a divorcce who works as a waitress, said she is going to take her son to a doctor to find out why he wants cigar cites.
 Mrs. Smith. who said she doesn't smoke, said she believed Lawrence picked up the habit from the baby sitter.
 The mother tried to substitute candy cigarettes for the real thing, but it was no go.
 He just threw them aside and screamed until he got real cig- arettes," the mother said. "Once I tried giving him raw tobacco, thinking the taste might break him of the habit.
 Tt had no effect" Mrs. Law renee said.
 Lawrence doesn't light the cig- arettes he smokes. That's a job for either his mother or the baby sitter.
 "There's a danger from fire if he lights his cigarettes himself" Mrs. Smith said.

SHOWING OFF WITH SHARKS!

PHILADELPHIA, LR - Would the aquarium people permit un- derwater swimmers to enter the tank and feed the shark?
 That was the question asked by the Young Women's Christian Association. It wanted to show off skin diving techniques to get publicity for it's adult classes.
 Heck no. the aquarium people replied. They said the shark, not used to swimming around with people, would get so frightened he'd dash toward the glass and bash his brains out.

Chat About Fish Costs $3.50
By JAMES BIRcHFIELD

1t cost Col. Edward Black
$3.50 to convince his friend
that Goldfish don't swim up the
Potomac River every spring.
Col. Blacks trouble was that
he was in Ell Paso. Tex, and not
handy to the banks of the
Potomac when the discussion
about fish arose. Col. Bill
Hensel argued that cod, and
not herring and shad, swim up
the Potomac to lay their eggs
each spring. And he wouldn't
be backed down.
What do you do in FL Paso
on q hot Sunday afternoon to
settle such an argument? Natu-
rally. you call up the guy who
writes Life in the Country
for The Star.
That is just what Col. Black
did.

tor said. Then to the man on
the other end Of the line, THAT
will be $3.50 please"
There was the tingling of
bells and quarters were dropped
in the slot, and finally, after a
call for change, Col. Black came
on the wire.
Say" he said, "can you
settle an argument? Do cod
come up the Potomac in the
spring."

If you want your evergreens
to be healthy and attractive
keep them free of red spiders
advises the National Arborist
Association.
These pests are one of the
causes of needles losing their
normal green color, turning
yellowish brown and dropping
This damage is particularly
noticeable on the inner twigs
and branches.
Red spiders, also known as
spider mites, are pinpoint in
size and practically invisible
To test for their presence, hold
a sheet of white paper beneath
a branch and strike the branch
a sharp blow with your hand
This will dislodge the mites
Dropping them on the paper
they appear as animated speck;
Of dust as they move about.

The National Arborist

July Seeding Gains
Year for PerennioIs

appears. the root systems will
be badly intertwined.
Covering Pots
Water the pots or fats as
soon as the seeds are sown and
cover with glass, newspaper.
or a polyethylene plastic to
prevent drying out. Pots may
be placed inside Of the larger
sized plastic bags and will not
need watering during the germ
nation period.
Not all kinds Of perennials
may be grown from seed.
Many of the named varieties
may be multiplied only by slips
or by cuttings. However, there
is a good reason for growing
your own-and this is that
many of the plant growers only
grow the more common va
rieties for which there is a re-
latively large demand. The
newer varieties or those Of spe-
cial form or qualities for a
particular situation are the
ones which the gardener must
grow if he is to have them.
New Seed Is Better
The seed of some perennials
and biennials deteriorates
rather rapidly and for good
results, the gardener should
ask for new crop seed. This is
especially true for pansies and
delphiniums.
The gardener who wishes to
start seed in July but is going
away on a vacation in August
may wonder about the advisa-
bility of sowing seed. The
flower pot inclosed in a plastic
bag is the ideal answer to such
a situation. However, one word
of caution: Do not have the
soil mixture too wet. Seed must
have moisture to terminate but
If there is too much moisture,
they will not thrive. Moisten
the soil and allow to dry for a
day or two before placing in
the plastic bag. No further
watering will be needed until
the plants are transplanted to
pots or flats. This is probably
the easiest way to grow peren-
mails that has yet been devised.

Red Spider on Evergreens

malathion and others that have
been developed specifically FOR
mite control. Such materials
may be purchased at garden
supply stores, and directions
for use are given on the pack

Red spiders are prolific, SO
inspect your evergreens about
every two weeks during the

times at weekly intervals if
mites are present.

Everybody knows that a hay
