Compost Food

Chop up all sweetcorn and
dahlia stocks and either bury
in the garden, or in the COM
post pile, or burn in order to
destroy the winter stage of the
corn stalk borer.
The old tomato vines might
we'll be burned since so often
they are infested with disease
Some of these diseases will live
in the soil for 5 years or more
and there is no point in spread
ing diseases through the garden
soils by burying the vines in
them.
There is little to be gained
by cutting off the tops of
chrysanthemums and peren-
mails since they hold fallen
leaves and provide a certain
amount of winter protection to
the dormant roots. The excep-
ton is the peony tops, and they
need to be removed only if dis
eased.

THIS WEEK
IN YOUR GARDEN

The snow this week turned
attention Of many gardeners
to putting the garden to bed.
We can expect many days OF
pleasant fall weather before
out-of- door gardening activities
stop. 1t is not too late to fer
tilize the lawn; the seeds Of
hardy ANIMALS ould be
planted where they are to grow;
bulb planting is far from fin
ished and often continues until
after the first Of the year and,
Of course, there are the garden
cleanup jobs to be done before
the tools can be cleaned and
given a protective coating Of
grease as they are stored for
the winter.
The leaves should be removed
from the lawn to prevent
smothering Of the grass. They
may be used to mulch the aza-
leas and shrub borders but are
not suitable for mulching the
perennial border unless
chopped up first. When used
to mulch the azaleas it is well
to first place brush between the
azalea bushes to prevent the
leaves from packing. Whe n
matted down they hold too
much moisture for the good of
the azaleas. OF course, the best
place is to put them into a
pile where, mixed with a bit
of earth and fertilizer, they
soon become compost. Compost
is an excellent soil improver.
1t may we'll take the place of
peat moss when preparing seed
beds, enriching the soil about
newly planted perennials, roses,
trees and shrubs.

Bulbs

The planting of all kinds OF
bulbs is a timely gardening &C
tivity. The daffodils should be
the first to go into the ground
and even at this late date will
produce good growth and bloom
next spring, although they will
flower much later than II
planted in September. The
small bulbs are next in order
and the tulips and Dutch iris
are the last to go into the
ground if fall top growth is to
be avoided. This lateness OF
planting does not affect either
the season of bloom Of tulips
and Dutch iris or the size OF
flower. If this season keeps on
being colder than normal the
tulips might just as well 60
into the ground now, but there
is no way Of telling how cold
or early the winter will be. We
can try early planting or we
can follow the normal practice

Sow AnnuoIs Now

Now is the time to SOW seeds
OF the hardy ANIMALS where
they are to grow since most OF
them do not transplant easily
Sow the seeds thinly to reduce
the chore of thinning next
spring. Most of these ANIMALS
should be spaced 6 to 8 inches
apart the larkspur IL inches.
The hardy little portuclaca likes
a hot dry situation for good
growth; the Iceland and Shir-

suits, most of the others are

good garden soil. They will be

Customs Plan
Cuts Red Tape
BY the Associated Press


A Treasury-appointed task
force has recommended that
major changes be made in
customs procedures in order to
offer foreign visitors a warmer
welcome andr eturning Ameri-
cans less red tape.
The five-man study group,
in 70-page report to Secre-
tary of the Treasury Douglas
Dillon, yesterday urged that:
l. More customs inspectors
learn foreign languages.
2. The 500 duty-free al
lowance on goods brought back
by American tourists be based
on retail prices rather than
wholesale values. This would
cut the allowance by about Is
per cent, but, the report said,
simplify administrative work.
8. Articles imported by re-
turning travellers be subject to
a flat rate of duty. Currently,
rates vary from item to item,
which takes a great deal of
time IN assessments and re-

duty-free allowance be abo-
ished. The report said the

FIELD DAYS AGAIN

FIELD DAYS AGAIN
WHILE IT IS true that the world must move forward
and make progress, yet there are many old and time-honored
activities which grow more important with the years. Progress
in this connection is shown by the improvement in these
activities. One such program in these parts was the old Field
Day. Many remember when these were held once a year al
the Experiment Station at Annals Hope.
THESE FIELD DAYS were great events. The Governor
would declare a public holiday. The schools would be closed,
and practically everyone would head for the Station to spend
at least an hour, and many made a days outing Of it. There
wouIdsbe agricultural exhibits, including farm produce and
animals. Prizes would be given, and many a farmer went
away beaming with pride at having won a prize at the Field
Day.
OTHER ACTIVITIES at the Field Day included a band
concert, a program in which the Governor and leaders ad.
dressed the gathering, and as dance groups played, there
would be impromptu dancing. And to topotf the whole thing
free meal were distributed. Some cattlemen, or other country
gentleman of means would contribute a steer, and there would
be enough roast beef for free lunch. At one of the last such
field DAYS a new punch was introduced and everyone sampled
it.
SUCH FIELD DAYS should be put on again. There is
much more to it than just a day of pleasure. The exhibits
many off which were carefully prepared for weeks in advance,
focused attention on agriculture and its value to St. Croix
and the Islands. The high schools would bring their handi-
craft for exhibit and competition, and these, too, brought de.
light and satisfaction to exhibitors and prizewinners. Nor
should this sort Of thing be part of a Festival or other celebra-
ton. 1t should stand on its own, all by itself.
FELL DAYS are not new. They are the local equivalents
of fairs, which are held in every state in the union, and in many
counties. If agriculture is to mean anything to us here and
it should : then one of the best and most significant projects
is the field day. All concerned with agriculture should start
work on a field day for 1862 or 1868.
