Nine Families
RoutedbyFire
In Apartments

Nine families were burned out
of their homes yesterday by
a fire at the Andalusia Apart
ments. 1904 Kenilworth avenue,
in Prince Georges County Just
over the District line.
William D. Pierce. assistant
chief of the Tuxedo-C -Cheverly
Fire Department, estimated the
damage between $50,000 and
100000.
One apartment resident and
two flremen were treated at
Prince Georges County Hos
pital for smoke inhalation.
IL Companies Respond
Firemen from II companies
in Prince Georges and the Dis
trict fought the stubborn blaze
for an hour before bringing
IL unoer control.
Mr.. Pierce, a volunteer as
sistant chief whose full-time
job is as a fireman with Dis
trict's Truck Company No. 4.
said the fire apparently started
in stuffed chair in the third
floor apartment of a woman
who was visiting in West Vir-
ginia when the fire was dis
covered.
Mr.. Pierce said the fire
heavily damaged six apart
ments on the upper two floors
of one end Of the building.
Three other apartments on the
flrst floor were left uninhabit-
able from smoke and water
damage.
The fire apparently had been
going for some time before it
was discovered by Mrs. Beulah
Rustin who lived in the apart
ment next door, Mr.. Pierce
said. The flames got into the
ceilings and walls, making it
dificult to extinguish, he said.
Overcome by Smoke
Mrs. Martha Wagner, rs, was
overcome by smoke. Mr., Pierce
said she was the only occupant
in the building when firemen
arrived and declined to leave
at first because she thought
her apartment was not in
volved.
Mr.. Pierce said that as fire-
men went through the building
apartment by apartment, they
found her unconscious. A Prince
Georges County Hospital
spokesman said Mrs. Wagner
was in good condition after
spending the night at the hos
pital, waiting for relatives to
come for her.
The two firemen treated at
the hospital were Bernard Os-
terman, 10, 4103 Newton street,
Colmar Manor, of the Cottage

BrGckish Water Useful
For The IrrigGting
Of Crops
(continued from page one)

Continued from page one)
deners must know exactly the salt
content to make effective and safe
use of brackish water. Since salt
content is measured scientifically
in terms of it's electrical con-
ductivity-growers faced with US
ing brackish water to produce a
crop should make arrangement for
its analysis through their county
agricultural agents of Soil Conser-
vation Service personnel.
A survey of water quality in
rivers, creeks, and bays along the
periods of excess precipitation and
runoff bring about gradual de-
cline in the salt concentration of
these waters. Such waters are a
potential source of irrigation wa
ter Normal winter runoff, in most
cases, is able to flush these areas
to the point where they are usable
in the Spring, Fieldhouse said.
Experiments in Virginia show on
accumulation of salts in the soil
where brackish water has been
used for irrigation. However,
winter rains usually leach these
salts out before the next growing
season.
Brackish water applied before
seeds have germinated causes a
marked reduction in termination.
For this reason the use of saline
water must be restricted to the
period after the seeds have germin-
ated, Fieldhouse warned.
Increasing salinity appears to
increase acidity of sand loans,
making manganese more available
in quantities that may be toxic to
the plants. With beans, manganese
toxicity reduces pod yields. The
availability of iron and aluminium
are not appreciably affected by
salinity however.

SO Wheat Price
Support Is $500

The minimum basic price sup
port rate on l959-crop wheat ir
Kent County has been set al
$2.06 per bushel, according tC
Chairman R. Harry Wilson OF
the Kent Agricultural Stabiliza-
ton and Conservation County
Committee at Dover.
The basic county rate is for
No. | wheat without garlic. 1t is
further adjusted up or down fol-
grade and quality to determine
the support price for the indi-
vidual farmer. Most premiums
and discounts for l959-croI
wheat support are the same as
those in the 1858 program.
AS in previous years, the
farmer will be able to obtain
price support on his l959-crop
either by getting a loan on farm
stored or warehouse-stored grain
or by entering into a purchase
agreement with the government.
Supports will be available from
harvest time through January
81, 1860. A farmer who wishes
to store his loan wheat in a
terminal can get information on
terminal rates at the county Of
flee.
The rate just announced is a
minimum which will be used in
making the initial loans when
the wheat harvest begins. If the
wheat parity price and other
factors indicate a higher rate as
of July l, 1859, the farmer will
receive the difference.
