Dutch Bulb
Crop
Sharply

The production of Towering
bulbs in Holland was greatly
reduced by the severe winter
The extent of the shortage is
now evident since the digging
of the crop has bG Il completed.
In general the production Of
tulip bulbs is approximately IS
per cent less than the moder.
ately short 1862 crop.
This varies between the diff.
ferent types Of tulips-the spe.
cies, such as Cluisana and
SylveStris, are 20 per cent below
the previous year. The early
varieties mostly used for forcing
are only 65 per cent of last
years production; the Triumph
70 per cent, PARROT so per cent,
lily flowered 40 per cent, the
Darwin hybrids 80 per cent,
Darwin varieties so per cent
and cottage so per cent of 1862.
These are for the types as a
whole and there is some varia-
ton between varieties within
a type.

3-Woy Operation

Even though the season is
late for the sowing Of grass
seed, it is much better done
now than in the spring. Renovat-
ing old lawns or planting new
ones requires lining, feeding
and seeding. These operations
may all be down in one day
since the burning power Of the
nitrogen in the fertilizer will
probably be dissipated before
the tender roots and shoots of
the seed emerge. If these can
not all be done on the same
day, it is better to put the
fertilizer on the lawn a week
befo.e the, seed; otherwise
fertilizing should be delayed un-
til at least a month after seed
ing. Be sure the soil about the
seed is firmed, either by roll
ing, walking on a plank or
patting the surface of the
ground with the back of the
shovel. Blue grass seed does
not need to be covered in order
to germinate. New seedlings
should be mulched with straw
Zone bale per thousand square
feet) to prevent the seed from
drying out and the soil from
washing. The straw may be held
in pl&ce with brush or with
binder twine stretched across
the are1.
One pound of good grass seed
per thousand square feet is am
pie. The amount Of lime to be
used is best determined by a
soil analysis. If this is not feast
BILE, apply so pounds Of the
pulvc-ized limestone per thou
sand square feet. The amount
of fertilizer to be applied should
also be determined by a soil
test. Lacking this, apply Is to
so pounds of a turf food (1O-6-4)
per thousand square feet.

How 10 Fight
Sod Worms
BY BRYAN X. FINGER
Assistant Montgomery County Agent

|
Sod webworms have been
found attacking several lawns
in this area. The worms are
the larvae of lawn moths. The
adults are small, whitish or
gray moths or millers. The web
worms are light brown and
about "a inches long. Their
bodies are covered with fine
hair. The adults hide in shrub
berry during the day, but during
early evening they can be seen
flying over the grass. It is at
this time that the females
scatter eggs over the lawn.
The worms work only at
night and they live in protective
silken webs or nets that form
about their bodies. AS soon as
they are hatched, they start
feeding on the grass leaves.
When they grow larger they
build burrows or tunnels close
to the surface of the soil; they
reinforce the tunnels with bits
Of dirt and pieces Of grass, line
them with silk, and live in
them. They cut off blades of
grass, drag them into the bur-
rows, and eat them. AS partly
grown larvae, they overwinter
in their Silken tunnels.
Sod webworms prefer new
lawns. They attack bentgrass,
bluegrass, feScue, and other
grasses. Irregular brown spots
are the first signs of damage.
1t the infeStation is heavy, large
areas Of grass may be damaged
severely or destroyed in only
a few days.
You can find the worms by
breaking apart some of the
drying sod. If there are three

secticide.
Some insecticides that can
be used are Chlordane, Dieldrin,
or DDT.
Have you had trouble getting
a good stand of grass even
though you have followed all
the recommendations? You
probably had a "damping-off
or fungus seed rot problem
'Damping-off" is a fungus dis
ease prevalent on terminating
seeds and young seeding plants
This parasite is soil-borne and
is always present. Don't let this
disease destroy your germi'
mating seed or young seedlings

and costs so little. Seed pro.

Thiram, or Semesan will con.

full per pound of grass seed. For
small lots of seed, add the
chemical to the seed in a paper
bag and shake the bag for five
or ten minutes or until all the
seeds are coated. 1t is important
that all the seeds are coated
with the fungicide.
If you would like to have a
fall harvest, plant radishes, leaf
lettuce, and mustard. Don't let
the weeds over-run your garden
and 60 to seed or you'll have
a worse weed problem next
year. Continue to spray your
late crops with a general pur-
pose garden spray, for insect
and disease control. If you had
Fusarium Wilt in your tomatoes
this year, next year 1t will
probably be worse unless you
use wilt resistant varieties.
Some wilt resistant varieties
are Marion, Homestead "a,
KC LAG, and Chesapeake.

GIudioIus Corms

The gladiolus corms should

The weather has been un-
usually favorable for mildew
and it may be controlled with
karathane, phaltan, sulphur or
Acti-dione PM. The Acti-dione
is a very good eradicant and
is safe to use regardless Of the
air temperature. Sulphur is ef-
fec We but can not be used
when temperatures are above
IS degrees. It seems hardly
necessary to control mildew on
lilacS at this late season since
they are practically dormant.
However, it may spread from
the lilacs to Grape myrtle, to
dahlias, roses and other shrubs;
and of course, mildew-infested
foliage is unSightly. Follow the
manufacturers directions when
applying any of these materials
for the controlling of mildew.

The fall planting Of bulbs can
be started as soon as the ground
is ready. The daffodils should
go in as quickly as possible
since late planting delays their

Dutch iris are best planted in
the early winter. The other
bulbs can go in as the ground
is prepared.

Former Miner Max
 Hirshberg Passes On

Carrie McLain has heard, from ber son. that Max Hirshberg nassed away on December 3, at the age of 8S. He died in Seattle. According to Carrie, Max had a real flavorful past. He was a big mining operator in the Teller area, with two small dredges op- erating in Sunset Creek across the barbor from Teller. Carrie recalls that he owned a store in Teller in 1901 and 1902. In 1915 when she went to Teller to teach, Max had a beautiful story and half home on Sunset Creek which sported a large vault and a huge library of valuable books. She says, "The shelves reached from the floor to the ceiling" Hirsh- berg was also the originator of an idea to line his ditches with con- crete. With about 30 miles of ditch, he soon got out of that no- tion. His most famous feat, accord ing to Carrie, was riding a bicycle from Dawson to Nome in the spring of 1900. Max was married to Carries sister-in-law's sister.
