Rep. Blodgett Calls It "A Healthy Move"

ANCHORAGE R - The resig- nation of Eugene Roguszka from the Division of Aviation post was hailed today by Rep. Robert Blod- gett, "as a healthy move'' in the interest of the people of Alaska. Blodgett made the statement to the capital correspondent of the An chorage Daily Times.
 Blodgett said the Northwest Alaska legislators move to give the division the status of a de- partment was "basically aimed in this direction"
 q supported the appointment in the first year of statehood" Blodgett said. within a year, I became aware that it was not a satisfactory appointment and be- gan to have reservations. By an- other year, I began to pressure for change as did Sen. John Coghill.
 "The Ice Bloc supported the bush airfield bonding program wholeheartedly, the federal aid to airport program statewide and the international airports, but the aviation program has not func- toned as it should" Blodgett said.
 "Air field maintenance has been so severely neglected that the state is now faced with the necessity of reconstructing many air fields throughout the state. This would not have been necessary with proper maintenance" Blodgett con- cluded.

SAFE LANDING

HALESINBORG, Sweden R - Two Swedish Air Force jet train CTS touched accidentally yesterday in a bizarre piggy-back collision only 100 feet above the ground. Then both landed safely.
 Witnesses said the planes, Brit ish-built De Havilland Vampires, came in for landings at the same time and at such an angle with only three feet between them for more than a minute before they touched.
 The lower plane made a perfect landing, but the other skidded off the runway, and smashed it's nose. Each plane carried teacher and a trainee, with the teacher at the controls.

Canned Tuna Figured In Food Poisoning Cases

NEW YORK R - The A & P Food Store chain ordered all A & P canned tuna in it's 4,400 stores withdrawn from sale today in the wake of reports of suspect ed food poisoning, fatal in two cases in Detroit.
 A company spokesman said that although the suspected tuna was from a California packer, it was clearing it's shelves of all A & P tuna as a precaution.
 County health officials in De- troit also warned housewives to turn in any 612 cans bering the lid markings "WY3Y2" and "118X."
 Health officials in Detroit said the two victims died of Type 'E'' botulism, which they called rare poisoning. The victims were be- lieved to be the first in the United States from this type.
 Type "E' botulism originates in fish products and attacks the ner- vous system, authorities said.
 The suspect container was part of small shipment packed under the A & P label by a West Coast packer.

Stormy Atlantic Claims Stalwart Barkentine Bear

NEW YORK R - The stalwart old sailing ship Bear, veteran of Adm. Richard Byrd's Antarctic explorations and rescue of hum dreds of whaling men off Alaska, sank last night in stormy seas she so long defied.
 The three-maSter went down 260 miles east of Boston while under tow from Halifax, Nova Scotia, to Philadelphia to become a combined restaurant and com mercial museum.
 Two men aboard the 198-foot vessel made it safely in a iferaft to the tow boat.
 The Coast Guard said the tug reported that the Bear, a Barken- tine, sank after her foremast broke off. A Barkentine is square-rigged on the foremast with fore-and- aft rigging on her other masts.
 The Bear was built in 1874 in Greenock, Scotland, as a seal fish ing vessel. The United States gov- ernment bought her in 1884 and as- signed her to the Revenue Cutter Service, later the Coast Guard.
 For 40 years, she sailed out of Oakland, Calif., making 45 voy- ages to the Arctic.
 Her most notable feat came dur ing the winter of 1897-98. An early freeze trapped whaling men off the Yukon and left them in danger of starvation.
 The Bear, with a wooden hull SC tough she could serve as an ice breaker, approached as near as possible to the men. Then the crew using dogsleds and driving rein deer, reached the trapped whalers.
 On her stormy last voyage, it became apparent that age had taken it's toll and that her days were numbered.
 He square-rigged foremast trail ing over the side, listing to star board and down at the bow, the Bear had struggled through the night.
 Showing the same sturdiness that won the admiration of Adm. Richard Byrd 30 years ago, the 9O-year-old Bear took the worst the raging Atlantic could give.
 The saga of the Bears latest battle began yesterday morning when she broke loose from a tow line. She was on her way to Phil adelphia, to be preserved as an historic relic

into a place where 1t pays not
left In the fields unless you can
feed this loose corn.
Also, be sure to clean up In
and around your grain storage
before this new crop goes In.
Enough new pests will get into
your corn after storage without
having them In when the corn IS
stored.
Several people In Sussex
County have been asking how to
tell Johnson Grass from Barn
yard Grass, Watergrass, and
similar grasses.
We now have publications that
show how to identify this pest.
The title OF one bulletin IS Con-
trolling Johnsongrass In Illinois.
| It is circular No. 827. Although
this is not q Delaware pubuca-
tion, the controls and recon-
mendations do apply to Delaware.
We also have a USDA bulletin
on Johnsongrass.
The underground stems or
rhizomes as well as the top
growth Of Johnsongrass are
shown In these bulletins. Con-
trolls are also listed for those who
are broubles with this weed and
desire to control It.
Quick Identification and early
spot treatment are the two best
things to do to prevent the weed
from spreading.
JohnSongrasS is headed out
now, so you can spot it In your
fields and treat 1t now. Don't
wait until next spring II you have
this pest.
Fertilizer should be kept out
of the reach Of all animals.
Nitrogen and potassium salts In
fertilizer are toxic to animals and
an overdose may result In death.
After recently reading Of the
death of 40 angus cattle because
they ate from bag Of fertilizer
felt It might be a good idea to
mention this fact again.
Fertilizer is not dangerous
when used properly as a plant
food, but It IS not meant as an
animal food. Care shouldbe taken
to store fertilizer where 1t will
be out Of the reach Of animals.
II spillage occurs, clean up the
area. Fertilizer in the field
should never be left to stand In
piles. Besides being a hazard to
animals, 1t may also burn plants.
Also, burn empty bags. There
may be enough left In them to
be harmful to an animal plus 1t
will look better II bags are not
left lying around.
Before turning livestock into
a newly fertilized pasture, wait
until at least a quarter inch OF
rain has fallen.

- An unusual shrine, charac ter
izing Joseph, Mary and the child
Jesus as "the working holy fam
lily" overlooks two main high
ways from a hillside on the
grounds Of St. Ambrose Roman
Catholic Church.
The solid white marble statues
donated by MIR. and Mrs Charles
Abraham, members of the church
were made in Italy. The carpenter
Joseph has his saw and hammer,
Mary holds broom, and Jesus,
depicted at age 2, holds the
world and a cross.
The Rev. Thomas Kelly,
pastor, says this is appropriate
because the Portage County area
is conspicuous for its family

Field losses may cut deeply
into your corn profit this fall.
. You could have several bushels
left in the field after harvest and
unless you have some way OF
cleaning this up, It is lost.
= To avoid heavy field losses,
you should pick at the right time
and with equipment that IS prop
erly adjusted. The moisture level
greatly affects Smelling char
acteristics. With field Smelling
equipment, a moisture level Of
26 percent Is ideal. You will have
fewer kernels and less corn left
In the field. OF course, this corn
is too wet for safe storage and
will require special handling or
artificial drying.
Harvest losses can be reduced
by careful driving. Running the
picker slightly off the center OF
the row can double losses.
Drive slowly while picking.
Losses ofboth ear corn and she'll
ed corn Increase at a fairly con-
stant rate up to speed Of 3-3 1/2
miles per hour. AT high speeds,
shelled corn losses level off,
while ear corn losses Increase
rapidly.
Adjust the picker to field and
weather conditions. If YOU'RE
wondering just how much is be-
ing left In the field, use these
formulas. For shelled corn,
count the number Of kernels on
the ground within a 40-inch-
square area. An average Of 20
kernels per square is equal to
a loss Of one bushel per acre.
Several areas should be checked
to insure a representative loss
picture.
For ear corn losses, step off
about 43 steps down the row and
count the number Of ears missed
or lost In that distance. One
flll-sized ear per row In this
distance equals one-bushel loss
per acre.
There are several corn pub
locations that you may be inter-
ested In knowing about.
W. T. McAllister, Delaware
Farm Management Specialist,
has two publications entitled "It
pays to Store Corn" and "Har-
vesting Drying and Storing High

For the Dogs
Lexington is college town once more
BY Allie Tardy

It's an old familiar routine
for Mr.. Homer Davis to put
his college trained dogs
through their PAGES for spec
tators, bue it was a brand
new entertaining, enlighten-
ing and downright fantastic
experience for the TardyS.
Ma. Davis has an audience
almost every day in the week,
made up of local people and
out-of-towners, but since my
visit, I've talked to a good
many folks hereabouts and
find there's a lot of you who
haven't had the pleasure of
watching his canine show and
I'm here to tell you, you are
missing something's
Davis College has accomo-
dations for twelve students,
with legrees being earned in
six to twelve weeks, and the
dormitory stays felled to ca
pacity. Upon graduation, dogs
are returned to owners all
over the United States, either
trained in police work or OBJ
ediance and showmanship.
Main attraction is "Cito,"
a five year old German Shep-
hard, valued at $15,I.OU,
ard who holds more degrees
than a college professor. He
has an endless array of tro-
plies and ribbons won in var
ious shows and makes it quite
plain to guests that he takes
pride in displaying them.
Mr.. Davis raises his voice,
but states his commands in
quDat relaxed manner and
is obeyed explicitly. One can
feel a great mutual respect
between trainer and dog.
"Cito is a big ham as well
as being a CLOWN" said Da-
Wis, ana this Cito proved by
pretending not to be able to
climb a ladder several times
and then racing up same,
nimbly as a squirrel. There
was an array of different ar
ticles on the porch and Cito
was sent after each article
by verbal command such as
go bring me the glove,
etc." and though he nosed
around all the different things
he always came back with
the right one. In fact he does
just about anything he is told
to do and you have the very
strong feeling that you are

gence equal or maybe super

spells his name. There are
abouc a dozen or SO blocks
scattered about and on com.

this) he picks out the c, |, T

carries the INTO his master

Pasture Management
1t will pay you to get weeds
Out OF pastures. This is eSpec-
tally true in dry areas. Some
times weeds seem to thrive
on dry Weather, while good
grass does not have a chan
ce. Actually, the weeds are
taking up the moisture and
plant food that should belong
to the grass. So get them off!
Every pasture should be
sprayed or clipped during
June. Pastures not clipped or
sprayed will sometimes pro-
duce from 20 to so percent
less good grass than will pas
lures with no weeds.
1t is also important this
year to rotate grazing. This
gives the pastures a chance
to grow back some between
CRAVINGS. This is especially
true on dalliS grass, lespe-
deza, sudan, millet and CoaS-
tai and common Bermuda,
where areas are limited. Be
sure and nitrate grass pas
