The devastation, even after all these years,
shows what a merciless pounding Berlin took
during the war.
Strangely enough, the most magnificent
museum we have ever seen anywhere in the
world is in East Berlin. 1t houses the priceless
and magnificent Pergammon Marbles. Not
even the Louvre or the British Museum sur
passes it. Several ancient temples have been
reconstructed whole. The East Germans are
and have right to be-intensely proud of it.
The PergammOn Museum has been restored,
but much of the famous Museum Island" is a
fantastic, tortured mass of ruins.
Soldiers with rifles and machine guns are
in evidence everywhere There seems to be sui
lenness and fear in the eyes of the adults, but
the Communists have built magnificent parks
and Fairgrounds for the youngsters. The Ul
BRIGHT regime is making an all-out effort to
capture the young.
East Berlin is a working-class district

An exceptionally clean and

deposits which could distort the

III. Will the unusual cIeanli-

IeS-1n many cases it will. How
ever, Shell Heating Oil cannot
remove residue caused by an in

Heating Oil to give you top
heating performance, the burner
must be in good condition and
properly adjusted. When this
has been done, Shell Heating
Oil can help reduce your annual
oil heat bill.

No, The benefits of Shells

don't cost you one penny extra
yet the process itself costs Shell
t'pice as much as old fashioned
refining methods.
rs. What are the benefits?
You get clear, bright heating oil
that stays clean even though it
might remain in your tank from
one winter to the next.
This has been proped-con-
clusively-at the Shell Research
Laboratory in Wood River, ILL.,
nois. Shell is as stable a heating
oil as your burner can use. While
some components in ordinary
heating oils may settle out,"
Shell Heating Oil does not
change. 1t retains its bright color.
The photograph at left pro-
vides the proof.
#6. Does the cleanliness of
new Shell Heating Oil mean
fhatitwill produce more heat?
Yes but not for the reason YOU
might expect. An oil that isn't
as clean as the new Shell oil NAV
burn just as well, but only for as
long as the burner stays clean.
And a burner can become
clogSed very quickly if the oil
isn't clean.
Its easy to see why.

OIL burner is actually smaller
than the eye Of a needle.

The purpose in controlling rates
of expenditures are to try to bal
ance-so far as possible-expendi-

vent agencies from using up all
their funds before the fiscal year
is over.
The bill contains some appropri-

funds" The Budget Commission
letter reminds the agencies that
the bill states, in Section ID, that
no disbursements may be made
from the contingency funds with
out prior approval of the Budget
Commission.
The letter to the agencies was
signed by all the members of the
commission: Governor Ebert N.
Carvel, State Treasurer Belle Ev-

Alexander r. Abrahams.
The idea of quarterly allot-

about two years ago, in law
enacted by the 120th General As

Get Ready For
Alfalfa Seedlings Now

Growers who wish to seed alfal-
fla this fall should begin to get their
fields ready now. warns Ed Ralph
associate county agent.
The first thing to do isto take
soil test and determine the PHI
and the amount of lime needed, II
any. The PHI of a field being pre-
pared for an alfalfa seeding should
be over 6.0,preferable 6.5 IL poss-
ible.
Another thing to keep in mind
is the growth that is on the land
now or what will be on the land
when it is plowed for the new
seeding of alfalfa. Quite often a
rank growth of weeds is plowed
under. This may cause trouble, es-
pecially If it happens to be dry
about the first of August.
If weeds have absorbed the mois-
ture in the top several inches just
before blowing, and this loss is not
replaced by rainfall or irrigation,
the new seeding may have trouble
as the newroots reach into this
dry area.
Therefore, it would be safer to
keep the ground disced or clean
cultivated just prior to blowing so
the soil will not be dried out The
seeding should be made about the
middle of August or shortly there
after, Ralph said.
Any Sussex County farmer who
is interested in establishing a new
seeding of alfalfa should contact
us at the county extension office,
Ralph said. Bill Mitchell, our ex-
tension agronomist, is really in fa-
vor of more alfalfa seedlings in Del
aware, and we will be glad to work
with anyone who is interested in
seeing this crop, the agent said.
One of the most important things
after good seedbed preparation and
lining is to be sure to use an in
noculant, Ralph said. This may
mean the difference between succ-
ess or failure.
The main pest involved with al
alta production is the alfalfa Vice.
vii. but it can be fairly satisfact-
orily controlled if sprays are used.
oOHle eHtOHiOloBlSlS seem 10 Inlnk
that maybe Heptachlor will be back
on the approved list this fall which
would help in the control of this
pest.
Alfalfa has several advantages
over other hay crops because of its
'igh yields and its deep roots
which enable it to withstand drou-
ght. The fact that 1t can be cut
3 or times spreads out the rain
damage risks so that the entire hay
crop Is not on the ground at once.
