YOUR PRICELESS HERITAGE: THE SOIL"
Part II Fertilization)
Part II Fertilization


In my last news report the subjects of soil tinage and
erosion control were discussed. / pointed out that tilage had
as its main purposes: Improvement of soil structure, removal
of weeds, and management of crop residues. Erosion control,
Of course, presents or slows removal Of soil by wind, rain,
and SO forth.
In this report, fertilizer practices will be discussed to tell
of ways in which maximum benefits can be derived from our
precious soil.
Soil nutrients form very tiny but vital portion of your
soil. This small part of the soil is essential to plant growth.
Without proper nutrients, soil can be as barren as a desert.
AS plants grow, plant foods are drawn from the soil. Some
of these are slowly replaced by nature through breakdown
Of soil minerals. However, sooner or later, soils become de-
pleted if we keep removing crops and if we do not supply nu-
trients to replace those used up. When this happens, plant
foods must be supplied from an outside source. Growing leg
unes viii put some nitrogen into the soil, and other elements
can be conserved in part by organic farming but sooner or
later it is always necessary to use commercial fertilizer.
Five basic ingredients determine d large measure Of soil
productivity. They are humus, nitrogen, phosphate, potash,
and lime. In addition to these, almost one dozen trace MIN
erals such as iron, magnesium, sulfur, copper, and zinc are
known to be essential for the production of healthy plants.
Soil may be tested for the presence of any of these materials
so that you can learn of deficiencies or weaknesses in your
particular soil. Soils vary from place to place so recommen-
dations for one area do not necessarily hold for other points.
In the Virgin Islands, our main problems of fertilization
are humus and nitrogen. Hurnus, which is simply decayed
vegetable matter, unfortunately is quite deficient here.
Steady. year round warm weather prevents the substantial!
Accommodations found in the northern United States. More
over. many farmers here. do not make the best use of hlnus
that is available. Burning grass or cane destroys about one
years production of valuble humus, and great quantities ct
nitrogen are lost back to the air when land IS burned.
Wherever possible cane trash and other plant parts should
be under so that soil Heterogeneous can Turn the vegetable
matter into plant food.
Az YOU can realize, no matter how rich your soil, it can be
worn out by taking off crops and putting nothing back in. At
the Federal Experiment Station at Kingshil we are available

From FACTS FOR FARMERS.

80 Courtlandt St., New York City
False State Department propaganda
about Cuba being financed by lush
II. S. sugar subsidies totaling $780,
100000 to $3.50, 100000 year has
backfired badly. Robert G. Spivack,
NEW YORK POST reporter, says
that Washington officials "forgot to
check their facts" and were taken in
by misleading propaganda" original
ing from members of the powerful
domestic sugar lobby"
In an effort to show Premier Castro
as an migrate. Lincoln White, State
Department press chief, told news
conference that Cuba gets an annual
subsidy of $3.50, 00,000--the differ
ence between the world sugar price
and what the U. S. actually pays. This
touched off a move in Congress to
knock out the subsidy on Cuban
sugar. Castro, not at all abashed, said
he welcomed the move since the sugar
subsidy is an instrument of imperial
list exploitation. In danger of being
hoisted from their own petard, u S.
sugar companies became alarmed and
quickly urged their lobbyists to try
to head off any such action.
''The whole enterprise" says cor
respondent Spivack of the proposed
subsidy revocation, ''has been based
on an erroneous idea of who gets the
money. 1t turns out that the premium,
which amounts to 2.38 cents per
pound, does not go to the Cuban gov
eminent. Instead it goes directly to
the American sugar interests operat-
ing in Cuba and comes to 500, OOO,-

Sugar Firms, Not Cuba, Subsidized

900 a year. The big sugar companies
anxious to maintain the status quo
would be just as happy if everybody
dropped the subject '''7' '-''''.'
More recently, the Cuban govern
ment has taken over three small sugar
mills, valued at $40 million, which
belonged to the U. S.-controlled Guam
tanamo Sugar Co. Purpose of the
seizure, however, was not based on
any hope of getting subsidies under
the u. S. Sugar Act but, according
to the newspaper, REVOLUTION,
the voice of the Cuban government,
''the workers have always been vic
TINS of the exploitation of the YAM
kee officials Of these companies, who
were closely allied with the Batista
regime"
Serious blow to it's economy as
the loss of the u. S. sugar market
would be, the people of Cuba seem
to regard this as a small enough
price to have to pay for independ-
ence.
Certainly, the peasants would pre-
fer to grow beans for their families
to eat rather than sugar for the U. S.
Moreover, the problem of selling
whatever sugar Cuba continues to
raise has been greatly relieved by
the contract signed with the Soviet
Union, which loaned Cuba 500 mil
lion for IL years and agreed to buy
5 million tons of sugar in five years.
officials are still looking
for ways of bending Castro to his
knees but at least they have now
learned that it can't be done by re-
voking the subsidies being paid to

Stronfium-90 Not Half
As Safe As Believed

WASHINGTON, D. C.-(CNS)-
A person can safely absorb in his
lifetime less than half as much stron-
tium-9O as scientists thought he
could.
That's the conclusion of the Ma
tional Committee on Radiation Pro-
lection, and Arthur F1emming, Secre-
tary of Health, Education and We'll
fare, has accepted their recommends
lions.
The committee told Flemming Feb
ruary &c, that what is considered a
safe strontium-9O lifetime level
should be reduced from 80 micro
microcuries to 33.
The committee said that while
strontium-9O is the most dangerous
radioactive material in nuclear fall
out, all radiation is dangerous.
The committee also believes that
radiation is completely cumulative.
That is, any amount causes just as
much harm if spread over a long
period as if received all at once.
Flemming told how the government
is trying to remove strontium-9O from
milk. In ST. Louis, the first high
incidence strontium-9O area, various
agencies are trying to find out (1)
how strontium-90 gets into the food
chain cycle from the environment
and (2) how the cycle might be inter
rupted to prevent strontium-9O from
reaching man.

Chairman Cooley (D-N.C.) of the
House Agriculture Committee said
that Congress would probably cap
prove a straight one-year extension"
of the Sugar Act, without the con-
troversial amendment.
Meanwhile, farmers here have
noticed that Secretary Benson, who
claims to be against farm subsidies
and for free markets, has made not
the slightest peep against the SUBJ
sides going to the big u. S. sugar
companies or the crazy-quilt sys-
tenn of unfree quotas.

FAMOUS FABLES
By E. E. EDGAR

TOO GOOD: To the elder
Henry Ford the only foods
worth eating were health
foods, which were not noted
for their taste. He was suspi-
cious OF any food that APP
pealed to his palate.
One day Ford's cook pre-
pared a new recipe. The
motor magnate tasted it and
found it delicious. After the
meal he went back to the
kitchen and asked for another
helping.
Flattered, the cook gave 1t
to him. This was the first
time such a thing had hap
pened and the cook was i'm
mensely pleased with himself.
His dissatisfaction was
premature, however, for Ford
did not eat the second portion.
Instead he sent it to q dieti-
clan in Detroit for analysis.
He was convinced that any
food which tasted that good
must contain something
harmful.

Then his heart return would
allow West to take the rest Of

When East rightly assigned
