Rotation Grazing
Urged For Orchard
GraSs-Ladino Pasture

A herd of contented cattle knee
leep in lush pastures is a beauti-
'ul sight During this time of the
year, pastures are growing rapidly,
and it is no problem to provide
adequate pasture for the herd.
This is especially true if you have
some orchard grass-Ladino clover
pastures. However, this lush spring
growth doesn't last forever, warns
Mr. Charles p Ellington, Agron-
)my Department University of
Maryland College of Agriculture.
To keep your cattle from going
rom Spring feast to summer fam
ne. it is necessary to do little
planning for managing these pas
ureS. One of the main problems
With orchard grasS-Ladino pastures
IS the difficulty of adjusting the
stocking rate to get the most from
hem. Continuous overgrazing will
Kill out both the orchard grass and
he Ladino. Undergrazing- unless
he surplus is harvested for hay
or silage-usually favors the grass
and it then smothers out the
clover. You can solve this problem,
Mr.. Ellington says. by dividing
he pasture into four or five
fields and Craze them in rotation.
Harvest the excess growth for
iilage or hay.
This excess growth should be
tut in the early heading stage. as
he heads emerge from the boot
This stage of growth makes the
)est feed and also provides eX-
,ellent re-growth while there is
adequate soil moisture.
When cut at this stage, the ma

This Is My Address
To Young Graduates

Graduation is here and have not been
asked to be the speaker at the ceremonies
A long time ago 1 spoke at these moving
exercises, but guess 1 offended someone be-
cause have not been asked back.
So will use this space to give my grad
uation address. Here goes, and doubt very
much that similar one will be heard from
within our halls of learning.
Ladies and gentlemen, honored guests
and distinguished members of the class of
1861: address you tonight about a subject
of great concern to all of us. 1t is a sub
ject which must be cleared up or else our
country will decline as did the Roman EN-
pire. I refer to who are you going to be-
ieve.'"
You remember the U-2 incident: where
the American plane was caught over Russian
soil. Now Russia is dictatorship and has
slain and conquered many people and it prac-
tees perfidy and deception as a matter of
course in political deals. America is a re-
public and offers freedom to all the world
- it is an honest and sincere type of gov!
eminent But, when the world was shocked
at the U-2 incident, the truth came from
the lips of Mr.. Khrushchev and the Ameri-
can people were deceived by our own Presi-
dent who denied the flight.
Perhaps you know that there is place
called Cuba and that some time ago bearded
person named Castro took over the govern
ment as self appointed dictator and formed
an alliance with Mr.. Khrushchev You may
also remember that he said that America
was going to invade Cuba. Now this Castro
is not received in the best democratic circles
and when he said that we were going to
perpetuate an overt act of war upon Cuba
we called him fool" and liar" But the
truth came from his mouth and the decep-
ton practiced upon the American people was
by those whom we elected to office.

Bernard 7. Welsh

Make no mistake about 1t: Cuba was
Pearl Harbor in reverse: an abortive and
shocking act of aggression for which our
President has accepted full responsibility"
Now members of the class of 1861, you
may recall a certain teacher named Van
Dorari who deceived the American people on
television several years ago. You might re-
call the basketball cheating within the At
lantic Conference and the immortal statement
of the Carolina coach who said that his school
would stop importing New York players into
the fair state of North Carolina and that
the corruption of the team would stop
You might also note that there has been
no public revulsion about cheating in college
basketball, that after Van Doran was caught
most of us thought it was slightly funny.
You might also note that the newspapers
deplore the loss of our prestige because of
the U2 incident and the Cuba debacle and
there is a great deal of shame felt because
we were caught.
But, l point out to you that there are
no tears being shed over the lack of honesty
in reporting to the American people about
these international affairs and the American
people apparently do not feel sense of shame
for having produced society where the Gold
fines the Van Dorans, and the college bas-
ketball cheats are accepted and honored mem
bers
And we were all cheated The papers did
not print the facts. 1 do not know who con-
trolls news circulation. But l suspect that
whoever does release the truth upon the basis
that whatever is goodefor the stockmarket
is good for the American public"
Gentlemen, l say to you that this lack
OF honesty cannot last If you do not bring
honesty back into our American life, we will
be conquered by bomb or an invasion from
within = and the best hope of mankind will
have vanished into the second Middle Ages.

Wick Byron's Column

Blair Lee will be the next United States
Senator from Maryland.
That's a fiat statement That is the way
1t looks to us.
He may have some difficulties in the
Democratic Primary next spring But this
depends on his opposition. 1t may very well
be that he won't have any.
Blair Lee is highly qualified to become
u. S. Senator. He has served well in the
House of Delegates. He has shown an inde-
pendence that is refreshing in recent Mary
land Democratic politics. And one of the
smartest things he ever did politically was to
show Tawes right at the beginning that he
couldn't be pushed around Tawes may not
like him for it but he respects him.
Blair Lee is well aware of the job ahead.
He knows that running for office is hard
job but he has tackled many difficult political
jobs before
There had been some thought given by
Blair and some of his friends concerning the
post of Governor However, the job in the
Senate suits him better And it is felt that he
could do more good in the Senate than he
could do in the Governorship.
Maryland needs young vigorous and intel
hgent men in, the important Senate of the
United States. He is as years of age And
he has a lifetime of politics behind him. He
was born to be u. S. Senator. The Demo-
Gratis of Maryland are fortunate in having
such an outstanding man to be candidate
they can vote for next spring.

A Few Words
A Look Back. With Love

1t was somewhat disconcerting to sit
there, watching growing number of ghosts
from the past
1t was also exciting to sit there, watching
a new generation take an old love to its heart.
The old love is "Gone With the Wind"
possibly the most beautiful movie ever filmed
by Hollywood. Back on its seventh-year
rounds again, Margaret Mitchells story Of the
Civil War and the death throes of chivalry
as practiced by the knights of old has lost
none of its elegance, charm, horror and in
sight into the futility Of war.

peIwoman who wrote massive volume about

We wanted to know what they thought Of
this special school established by Dr. Hansen,
Superintendent of D. C. Schools to focus at.
tention on basic education.
DIR. Craig and his colleagues saw nothing
there that 1--WE don't have In Montgomery
County," And while it is true that the Ami.
don Plan, SO called, has received wide acclaim
throughout the country, DIR. Craig believes
that the school has been successful because
the teachers-aII vOlunteers-have been the
finest in the ID. C. system. He said that under
ordinary circumstances good teachers mean
good programs
Doctors Craig and Causey and Mrs Cue
were impressed with the enthusiasm and ded.
cation of the teachers.
1t must be encouraging to the various
members of the Montgomery County Educa
ton Association that their organization has
finally taken official action concerning the
continued policy by the School Board of hir-
ing outside people for many of the high posi-
tons in our school system.
This subject is an old one as far as we
are concerned. Long ago we wondered why
the present school administration thought it
necessary to reach out to other states to hire
officials when there seems to be such wealth
of material right here in our system.
1t has always been our opinion that per.
sonnet presently employed by the School
Board should be given every opportunity to
meet requirements of the better jobs. And it
is wise that the official organization that is
supposed to represent the thinking of local
educators has awakened to the need for Off
cial action.
The MEGA had better start footing its
own horn or it won't have a horn to toot
