diseases depends upon the
weather. Some tomato varieties
are much more resistant to
such diseases than others. Rut-
gers is one. Blight may or may
not appear in this area. A good
tomato dust will usually pro-
tect the vines from this disease,
but it is uncertain as to whether
or not it will appear. It is our
plan to keep in touch with the
Department of Agriculture spe-
cialists and to warn gardeners
to begin busting or spraying
should the blight begin to show
in nearby areas.

The dogwoods may be pruned
in the early spring, or later
when in bloom by taking large
sprays from the. top. This is
not always accompanied by the
emergence of side branches,
but in many cases they will de-
velop. Keep the area over the
roots well m ulched and in
other ways keep them growing
vigorously.

Winter Injury

From Mrs. w. Ray Oberlin,

KenSington, Md.
Should l remove the buds
from my magnolia tree blighted
by the recent freeze?
AnSlDer
It is doubtful if the removal
of the flower buds would have
any effect upon the recovery of
your magnolia from the winter
injury. Suggest you apply an
acid-forming fertilizer (such
as the azalea and caWellia mix
ture) over the root area. A
mulch is usually beneficial in
keeping the soil moist and from
compacting.

1t cannot be positively stated
that the loss of rose bushes is
due to something in the soil,
because this may be a Sec
ondary development. Many rose
bushes suffered severe injury
from winter sun and winds.
Also, there is the possibility of
stem or brown canker. The re-
placement Of the soil and
bushes is undoubtedly a safe
move. The new bushes should
be regularly sprayed or busted

while the blossom of the female

several factors, probably In

victory. The new champions of

For football competition, the
Middle Atlantic Conference is
divided into three sections: the
university division, which in
cludeS some of the larger
schools in the conference; the
northern college division, and
the southern college division.
The race for the champion
ship of the northern college di-
vision was thrown into a three
way tie last weekend when Al
bright BANKED previously-un-
beaten Juniata, 40, and Wag-
ner scored a 42-8 victory over
Moravian. At this point, AL
bright, Juniata and Wagner all
boast 5-l-0 conference records.
Juniata and Wagner have no
conference games remaining to
be played. Albright, however,
will have an opportunity to win
the northern college division
title next Saturday when it faces
Franklin and Marshall.
In losing to Albright, defend
ing champion Juniata suffered
its first setback in % games.
The university division cham
pionship was won by Delaware
week ago when the Blue Hens
collected their fourth straight

Delaware suffered its first de-

hands of Bowling Green. Before
