P r E SID MT KENNEDY'S
VIEWS as reported by Investia,
and corroborated by an Ameri-
can stenographer present at the
interview, are worth reading by
Americans. He said a peaceful
solution of the Berlin problem
would greatly improve U. S.
Soviet relations in other areas,
and added that an International
agency might be allowed to con-
troll the autobalms or super-high-
ways leading from West Ber-
lin to West Germany. He sug-
gested that NATO and the War
saw Pact nations might sign a
treaty that they would not at
tack each other. The President
assured the Russian people they
have no reason to fear an in

military might.

Some Hints On LuWn
Core For The Present

| You won't crab about your grass
next spring if you fertilize it this
| fall.
That's the advice of a leading
expert who can help you grow
lawn so beautiful it will make your
neigh.bors green with envy.
Good lawns are not accidental"
says DR.. Harvey j. Stangel, chief
agronomist for Allied Chemicals
Nitrogen Division. Fertilization
and proper cutting are absolutely
necessary to produce a good lawn.
Without adequate plant food your
grass will be unable to grow Wig
orously. And if the grass is cut
too closely it is robbed of vigor
and can't compete with weeds
particularly crabgrass.''
Fall is the ideal time to fertil
ize because many annual weeds
such as crabgrass and dandellons
die out and the grass has a chance
to fill in the bare spots. When
spring arrives, the spots are cover
ed by young grass and weeds don't
have room to thrive.
Nitrogen is usually the fertil-
izer element lawns lack for health
y growth and a dark green color,
DIR. Stangel points out. 'U a
fOrmaldehyde, a slow acting source
of nitrogen, is one of the best nj
trOgen sources for lawns. Because
it is non-burning and resistant to
teaching it is used as the source
of nitrogen in the better turf
fertilizers. After urea formalde-
hyde nitrogen is applied to the soil,
the soil bacteria break it down
slowly. 1t becomes available to the
plants as needed. Heavy rains will
not leach it out of the soil. Your
turf will be fed evenly through
out the growing season. Because
all of the nitrogen is not available
at once, there will be no heavy
growth requiring frequent NOW
ing, followed by poor growth and
poor color as the turf runs out OF
nitrogen. With the even feeding
provided by urea formaldehyde
fertilizers you will have green
lawn all season"
Since grass plants o n u m e
more nitrogen than any other ele-
ment, it must be supplied to them
in sufficient amounts. Otherwise,
you'll have scrubby lawn. Be
sure your turf fertilizer contains
more nitrogen than phosphate or
potash. Analyses such as 1864,
20-10-5, 15-5-10 ETC., are all good
turf fertilizers.
To develop the greenest, grass
lest lawn in your block, DR.. Stan
gel suggests you take these steps
now:
1. In early fall apply 20 to 80
pounds per thousand square feet
of complete fertilizer containing
nitrogen, phosphate and potash.
The fertilizer should contain more
nitrogen than phosphorus or pot
Milford chronicle., 1961-10-27

ash. Early the following spring ap-
plication of 10 pounds per thou
sand square feet should be made.
tions at six week intervals may be
made for lawns which need more
plant food. The heaviest applica-
tion should be made in late sum-
mer or early fall to avoid disease
problems associated with tender,
lush growth in late spring.
2. Make a soil test. Apply lime
if needed.
g. Each time you water, soak
the soil to 6 or II inches. Don't
