Horse Manure

From F. E. R., Dunn Loring,
Va. In preparing beds I plan
to spade in horse manure, COM
post and sawdust. using am
monium nitrate to supply nj
trogen and lime to counteract
the acidity. Since lime releases
the nitrogen how is this best
applied? The manure contains
quantities of weed seeds, how
may they be killed? Answer
If pulverized limestone (raw
rock) is used there is very little
likelihood Of the nitrogen being
released. Moreover, when
spaded into the soil the nitro
gen is absorbed by the soil. If
the manure is Spaded into the
lower level of the beds there
is not too much to worry about
since the seeds will not ger
inmate when more than 2
inches below the soil level,
Weed seeds can be killed in a
spaded bed through the use of
methyl bromide but a cover is
needed to confine the gas (for
two days. and then aired for
three days.-Planting can be
done within five days of appli-
cation.

Answer-Suggest treating your

Water will carry it down into

Shift of Debt to Brother
Upset by Appeals Court

The United States Court Of
Appeals, reversing its earlier
opinion, ruled yesterday that a
Washington area man who
failed to respond to garnish-
ment papers is not responsible
for his brothers debt.
In re-evaluating the case of
Clarence Austin, the court said
there was no proof that he ever
was served with all the neces-
sary court papers.
If. however, there had been
proof that punishment papers
and summonses had been
served, Mr.. Austin would have
been held responsible for the
debt owed by his late brother,
Henry Austin.
Garnishment is a legal pro-
ceeding by which the debts of
one person can be satisfied by
obtaining money or property
owed by him but held by an
other person.
In a July opinion, withdrawn
yesterday. the court said Clar-
ence Austin, a GSA building
guard, Of the $500 block Of ]
street NE. would have to pay
the $1,000 damage claim
against Henry Austin because
he had ignored the court pap
ers served on him.

Who Were You?
AP N'ewsfeatures

NEW YORK (AP) Adding
limbs to the family tree is a con-
tagious preoccupation sweeping
from the historic New England
coast across the plains to a newly
family-conscious West.
Social historian Clev N
Amory calls this epidemic grand
| father-on-th -the-brain.
The New York Public Library,
eastern hub of lineage-detecting
activities, calls it "a phenomenon
of the 20th Century"
Whatever, like theoretically GU
rious adopted children, people of
all circumstances are sitting the
contents of musty trunks, poring
over faded public records, n d
tramping throug abandoned
graveyards, cleaning clues to their
origin.
Why Dig Up Past!
More than 1000 genealogies are
published yearly at considerable
private expense. bringing the total
of family histories to 162,353. And
in Western States-and Texas is a
good example - where genealogi-
cal societies were unknown I e n
years ago, there are now a half
dozen with thriving memberships
and their own publications.
Why?
With the Mormon faith keeping
track of the generations is canon.
1t is also done to establish legal
claims to inheritances, and to pro-
vide proof of qualification for or
ganizations, such as Daughters of
the American Revolution founded
on ancestry.
Do 1t Yourself
Yet most experts suspect that an
innate desire for roots and a
yearning for family status in this
comparatively new, peerageless
nation is what really drives these
people onto the trail of their fore
bears.
At any rate, tracing the pedigree
is either a consuming hobby, or
an expensive. hired-out project. 1T
can take a year, or lifetime, de-
pending on the situation and fl
nancial circumstances.
A person of modest means can
do the Job himself, says j. Craw-
ford Hartman, a historian for the
New York Genealogical and His
torical Society, who himself be-
came interested in genealogy by
beginning the search for his wife's
family's origin.
Hartman's advice is to start
with records in the family Bible.
Gather more family names and ad-
dresses through senior relatives.
Follow the trail of vital statistics
to probate courts. Check military
records in and the genealogies al
ready published.
And in time, lots of it, and with
the amount of money it takes for
a vast correspondence, trips to the
county seats, tips to record clerks,
memberships to genealogy librar-
les, your kith and kin can be
traced to their arrival in America

costly and fraught with inaccuracy

Know Terms Before
Buying Roinweor

Shoppers for rainwear should be
aware of two terms waterproof
and water-repellent, according t O
Katie Thomas, county extension
agent.
Fabrics with a waterproof finish
are coated with continuous film
that seals the fabric pores to water
are more durable than others and
may have special properties, such
as high resistance to acids and
oils. They are higly resistant o
heat, spots, or stains, and may be
washed safely with soap and water
Water repellent fabrics h We
been treated so they shed water
easily, Mrs. Thomas explains. An
important feature of water-repel-
lent fabrics is their ability o
breathe. Because spaces between
the yarns aren't sealed, water-re-
pellent garments are more comfor-
table to wear than waterproof gar
ments.
Water-repellent finishes may be
durable or nondurable. Durable
finishes withstand repeated laund-
ering or drycleaning without major
loss of water-repellence. Nondur-
able finishes may be replaced after
laundering or drycleaning.
Before buying a raincoat, read

nation about the garment. Fo l.

If you get sleepy while driving,

and breathe fresh air the cause
of your sleepiness may be carbon

yesterday. Carbon monoxide is still
''the creeping killer" said ]. James
Ashton, manager of the Delaware
Safety Council.
Each year, more than 300 per-
sons are victims of the poisonous
gas, he reported. The figure includ-
es motorists who warm up h r
cars with the garage doors closed,
auto mechanics who repair in clos
ed garages, and people who sit in
parked cars with the motor on to
keep the heater working. 1t does
not include those killed on one-car
accidents, rear-end collisions a n
other accidents in which the driv-
er apparently fell asleep but may
we'll have been suffering from car
bon monoxide poisoning.
Carbon monoxide, the silent
killer, causes more deaths than any
other poison" Ashton said.
1t is colorless, tasteless, on r
ritating and almost odorless. l t
can kill within minutes. The symp-
toms of carbon monoxide poison
ing are: tightness across the fore
head, followed or accompanied by
throbbing in the temples, headache,
WEAKNESS, weakness, dizziness, loss
of muscular control, nausea, d
increased pulse and respiration.
If you're driving at night
the darkness seems blacker t h n
usual, the glare of oncoming lights
brighter than usual, carbon mono
xide might well be the cause.
If the concentration of C ar b o n
monoxide in the air is great enough
the victim may fall unconscious
without any warning signals.
Fresh air." Mr.. Aston said, sis
the one sure way to prevent car
bon mOnOxide poisoning"
Make sure exhaust gases are not
getting inside your car by check
ing your muffler and exhaust pipe,
he advised.
Other suggestions from the Del
aware Safety Council:
1. Before starting your car en-
gine, open the garage doors wide.
2. Never drive with all the win
dows closed.
8. Don't follow other cars t o o
closely. Their exhaust contains
carbon monoxide fumes which
may enter your car.

emergency living is similar n
many ways, but it lacks the mott

Fallout shelters have been COM

A two weeks supply of food is
required. Some of this can be stor-

nearby. Foods selected should in
clude those things the family likes
to eat.
A first aid kit is essential, plus
additional medicines the family
might need. And, of course, you
want enough warm bedding a n d

One Out Of Four
Need Management

If you take a ride down a typi-
cal country road in Delaware you
will see quite a difference in the
farms along the way. You will see
one or two like the pictures on
the covers of farm magazines rel
ly outstanding. You'll see several
that aren't show places but from
the road you can see signs Of sue
cessful operations. But as you
ride along enjoying the rural splen-
dor, you'll also notice that one out
of about every four farms aren't
doing too well.
If you stop at one of these less
the difference between the farms
along that road is not in the quail
ity of the land they till or even
in how hard the farmers work.
Chances are it isn't even the
amount of capital or credit h t
each farmer has. Usually it's the
farmers ability to make and carry
out wise management decisions.
Good management deals W i t
how to organize the farm, e
labor efficiently, choose the right
enterprises, adopt new farming
methods, and plan when, where,
and how to market the products of
the farm. A generation ago it was
muscle and man power today sue
cess is found in the use of mind,
machines, management, and m a r
kets.
Here are some principles t h a t
serve as guides to good farm
management decisions.
l. Concentrate on the most pro-
fitable enterprise. In Delaware
there are large number of en-
terprises that can be fitted into the
farm business. But out of this large
number there are a few which have
always been more profitable than
others. Concentrate on the profit
able ones.
2. Get business that is large
enough. Remember it takes a large
gross 10 get a large net.
8. Use labor efficiently. T h e
most costly item on American
farms today is not gasoline, mach
inery, or fertilizer, or even taxes
it is the labor of the farm opera
tor and his hired help.
4. The fourth principle is to get
high yields. This is doubly impor-
tant because it is the best way to
cut unit costs and have more pro-
duct to SELL
