Jersey Road Deaths at 164

Twelve persons were killed in motor vehicle accidents in New Jer sey during the week ending Sunday night, four more than the eight who lost their lives in the corresponding week of last year, .Attorney General Grover C. Kichman Jr. announced today. This loss of life was worsened by the delayed death of another person injured in an earlier mishap and brought the 1955 toll to date to 164. The 1954 total to this date was 157. Mercer’s toll went from 8 to 10.

Kichman observed that last week’s accidents, which killed five drivers, five passengers and two pedestrians, indicated inattention or lack of prudence.

"Disregarding a red light cost a driver’s life while disregarding a stop sign took the life o f a passen ger. Two persons died in a railroad crossing crash and two others when their vehicles ran o ff the road. The other accidents exemplified unsafe acts by motorists and those afoot, which are only too prevalent and too often fatal," he said.

The Attornev General noted that arrests for traffic laws violations arc greater this year than in 1954 but even stricter enforcement seems necessary.

"There is an old saying that ‘accidents don’t happen, they’re caused,’ and it might be added ‘by violations.' It also should be remembered that the higher the speed the greater severity of the accident which occurs," Mr. Kichman added. “ More drivers should THINK before an accident and not afterwards. For survival, it isn’t how fast you can got but how fast you can stop!”

Court Holds Death Driver Was Drunk

The driver of a beer delivery truck that crushed a man to death on the Mercerville-Edinburg road March 4 was found guilty of drunken driving, a subsidiary charge, last week in West Windsor Court. He was fined $225 and had his license rewked for two vears.

Thomas !•, Servis, Prince-ton, still faces grand jury action on a charge of death by vehicle. He is accused of smashing into a stalled pick-up truck, despite a flashlight warning and pinning Fred A. Cub- berly, 55, of Hamilton Square between the i>ick-up and a car in front.

Cubberly was attaching a tow line between the two vehicles when the tragic accident occurred. His son Edward, 23, tried to warn his father o f the oncoming truck after his frantic fla.shlight signalling failed to deter the beer van.

Magistrate Raymond S. Britton imposed the penalties after two experts testified that Ser\'is “was unfit to drive."

State Trooper Steven Karback of the Princeton barracks said he ad ministered a drunkometer test to Servis shortly after the incident and determined from a chemical analysis of his breath that the truck driver was heavilv under the influence of alcohol.

Assistant Mercer Prosecutor Fred English staled later that this case is the first in.stance in the county where drunkometer findings have been introduced as evidence.

Dr. P. C. Tan of Princeton Hospital, the other expert to testify, told the court he e.xamined Sends two hours after the tragedy and found him intoxicated and “unfit to drive.”

Rug Firm Seeks Contract Changes

■A. ami M, Karagheusiaii Company of Freehold served notice Friday that its contract with the rug mill union, representing about 800 employees, will be ended May 31 in an effort to set up a new bargaining agreement more favorable to the company.

Harold J. McCormick, industrial relations director, said new contracts which cut operating costs have already been negotiated by two of Karagheusian’s competitors, Bigelow-Sanford and Motiawk. He said this factor, competition from non-union manufacturers and from foreign iiniiorts iirompted the move.

Michael J. Merola, business agent for Local 26, TWUA, CIO, said tlie union broke off negotiations early this year because of company proposals lor contract changes which were ''.unacceptable.”

In order to negotiate for contract clianges, the company had to serve notice of contract termination 60 days before the May 31 expiration date.

The employment at the mill at Freehold has dropped from about 1,100 to SCO in the past two years because o f economic conditions, .Merola said. Most employees are now on a 40-hour week -with only a few working a threc-day week. Some are working three shifts a day and others two shifts.

Auto Licenses By Mail Ok’d In Legislature

No More Standing in Line for 2 Million New Jersey Motorists

Some two million New Jersey motorists can breathe a sigh of relief. They won’t have to stand in line for their registrations and licenses next year.

This good news came Tuesday as the Stale Legislature has approved an optional mail order system. Only the signature of Governor Meyner is required before it becomes law and he is expected to take care of that.

The plan calls for a new scale of passenger car registrations at $10, $15 and $25, based on vehicle weight; a one-year driver license at $3, as currently, or three years for $8. Under the program the number of agencies will be cut from some 150 to 35 with registration and license issuance grouped with safety inspection.

Expiration dates of permanent plates will be staggered throughout the year, falling in the month of the driver's birthday or the month he bought the car.

The registration fee set up will be; under 2,700 pounds, $10; 2,700 to 3,800 popnds, $15 and over 3,800 pounds, $25. Details of the setup will be handled by Motor Vehicle Director Frederick J. Gassert.

The program has been bounced around off and on since 1937. A ccording to officials, the plan when in full operation will save some ^K),(X)0 to $4tX),tXX) a year in administrative costs. A building program to provide for the centralized system will cost several million dollars. A new building is proposed on Route 1 near Baker’s Basin, Trenton, to Louse rat "Office. ■—

ExpectedKicks On Park Rules Here Fizzles

No Objections Made When Mayor Offers Subject for Discussion

Expected protests to the ordinance regulating the parking of motor vehicles iu the Borough fizzled out Tuesday night at a session of the local governing body.

There were a number of spectators on hand including a dozen higher elementary school students accompanied by Miss Ethel Mc- Knight and Miss Marie Parker in connection with their studies, but there were no objections as Alayor William G. Rose brought up the subject for discussion bv members o f the audience and the Council.

The ordinance adopted last September after receiving approval from the Bureau o f Traffic Safety o f the .New’ Jersey Department o f Law and Public Safety was officially placed in oi'eration last Friday with the police force under instruction from Police Committee Chairman Ralph Whitney to carry out the regulations.

It was believed that some protests to the parking restrictions would be made at the meeting. There has been some expression of dislike for some sections of the ordinance which covers a dozen streets in the municipality. However, the time for expressing disapproval was last September when the ordinance was adopted. It was originally set for }>assage in July, but was held over several weeks at the askance of the Chamber of Commerce and several citizens.

.A supi»lement to the ordinance is slater! for May. .A proposal to block >ff the Stockton street entrance to Harron avenue during school hours (S a.m .to 4 i~nTpwas presenled by Whitney, No parking during this period was also offered. Attorney Henry G. P. Coates said it was nec- ess'iry to deter further action until the May 3 session in order to add the new plan to the current ordin- iiiicc. The change is scheduled to lurtlier the saftfy of the lower elc- nienlary youngsters who arc admitted to school buildings from Harron avenue entrances.

Councilman George Dubell expressed the opinion if any modifications in the present ordinance might be contemplated they could also be incorporated with the Harron avenue supplement, but there was no indication this was forthcoming.

In regard to the parking topic, Mrs. Lynn Miller of Miller’s Market, North Main street, requested a .'sign be posted near her place o f business designating 15 or 20 minute parking only. She said that motorists have been parking for long periods near or in front of her store during business hours. The matter was turned over to Whitney.

Ordinances creating a police de- i-artnient and planning board were ok'd with no objections.

Spring Finally Gets Like Spring

Spring officialh' made its appearance a little more tlian two weeks ago and finally has wanned up to its job. Big winds and rain were the trend for a spell, but the weatherman had a chat with Mr. Sun over the weekend and things in general have been jiretty nice.

March, which is noted for coming in like a lion went out like a lamb and the weather, altliough cool in some spots, has been definitely comfortable since then.

The first day o f the month, known as .April Fool's Day (Friday) wasn't fooling as the mercury climbed to a high o f 71 degrees. Saturday was also on the ideal side with the thermometer hitting a high of 72. The rain, which came quite frequently in March to pile up a total of 535 inches compared to a normal of 3.77, also got in a small lick Sunday night, providing .04 of an inch.

Weekend readings as released by Cooperative Weather Observer James R. Pickering were: Friday, 71 maximum, 38 minimum; Saturday, 72-41; Sunday, 62-42; Monday, (x2-35. Tuesday. 33.

The Resurrection1. The first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early

when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre, and seeth the stone taken away from the sepulchre.

2. Then she runneth, and cometh to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple, whom Jesus loved, and saith unto them, They have taken away the Lord out of the sepulchre, and we know not where they have laid him.

3. Peter therefore went forth, and that other disciple, and came to the sepulchre.

4. So they ran both together: and the other disciple did outrun Peter, and came first to the sepulchre.

5. And he stooping down, and looking in, saw the linen clothes lying; yet went he not in.

6. Then cometh Simon Peter following him, and went into the sepulchre, and seeth the linen clothes lie,

7. And the napkin, that was about his head, not lying with tlie linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself.

8. Then went in also that other disciple, which came first to the sepulchre, and seeth the linen clothes lie,

9. For as yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from the dead.

10. Then the disciples went away again to their own home.11. But Mary stood without at the sepulchre weeping: and

as she wept, she stopped down, and looked into the sepulchre.12. And seeth two angels in white sitting, the one at the head,

and the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain.13. And they say unto her. Woman, why weepest thou? She

saith unto them, Because they have taken away my Lord, and I know not where they have laid him.

14. And when she had thus said, she turned herself back, and saw Jesus standing, and knew not that it was Jesus.

15. Jesus saith unto her. Woman, why weepest thou? Whom seekest thou? She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him. Sir, if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and 1 will take him away.

16. Jesus saith unto her, Mary'. She turned herself, and saith unto him, Rabboni; which is to say. Master.

17. Jesus saith unto her. Touch me not; for I am not yet ascendeoto my TatEer: Tmt go to iny hfethfen, and say^onto TtlOT,' I ascend unto my father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.

May Outlaw Toys That Look Like Pistols

Trenton.—Measures iiending before the 1955 Legislature could outlaw the sale of any toy which Icwks like a pistol or prevent a citizen from killing a sharp-shinned hawk under any conditions.

With the Legislature ready to enter the home stretch, a survey of 700 measures dropped in Senate and House lioppers reveals the headaches which await the lawmakers in solving major problems, may be offset by the laughs to be generated by less important bills.

One bill would compel people in the egg breaking business to pay a $50 annual state license fee, while another authorizes a study of smoke and .smog by the Interstate Sanitation Commission. A third bill changes the word “ cover” in a law to eonvev" so th.it the statute makes

We arc told, if we listen to their lamentation, that religion has failed, that the plain, homely virtues of faith and loving kindness and mercy as between men and their fellows are dead and in this vale of tears the mourners are the most sensible of mortals, since there is no reason to rejoice in anything we hear or see.

To such an attitude of mind Easter comes as a shining and beautiful refutation as an angel seen by those who are in sorrow round a tomb. Easter is not to be observed merely as the commemoration of a triumph over the grave, a victory over death, nineteen centuries ago. It stands for the glory and the power of a resurrection here and now, of a rebirth day, of the springing of new life in this glad hour for a "confident tomorrow.”

The meaning of the festival is not to be confined with the ceremony of any sect or any ritual. It cannot all be told in music or in flowers and fire of the most eloquent of sermons. It goes far deeper than words can utter; it reaches the deepest of the truths w'e know, at the very heart of our human lives, in their need of that which is higher than ourselves, and in their aspiration toward that which is true eternally.

Easter is the freedom light, tlie upspringing joy of the emancipation of the soul of man. Least of all the festivals is it a time for selfish introspection, for the backward look and the unprofitable resemblance of failure and disaster, the sin besetting and the same disfiguring the pattern of our human lives. It is, instead, the time for the looking and thinking and acting beyond and aw'ay from ourselves.

As in the solemn and beautiful jubilee we consider the lilies and hear the music and feel the inspiration of the sermon and enter into the radiance and the rapture o f the morning, let us take thought how we may impart to other lives and bring to other hearts the joy we feel, knowing that as we are ministered unto it is our duty to minister and to spread abroad the messages o f the Eastertide to a world that needs all the cheer that any have to give.

Call of the Fish BrooksSports and pastimes come and go. Every nation has its favorite

ones. But there is one world wide pastime which has appealed to all races and all ages of history and that is fishing.

In these sweet spring days, as the bird’s cheerful pipe and the expanding foliage soften sorrow and toil, this traditional diversion calls the men out to the fishing brooks. What constitutes its fascin ation? How comes it to be so nearly universal, appealing not merely to children and untaught people, but to statesmen, educators, clergy men, business executives?

Primarily it is a case of competition. Man against nature. The man likes to match his wits against the instincts of the fishy world. He perceives that these fascinating creatures are endowed with certain powers of shrewdness and perception, keener than any faculties he has acquired. He tries to overcome these powers. It takes all his skill, inventiveness, observation of the ways of nature and the finny tribes. When he conquers these creatures, he feels a sense of triumph over physical. forces.

It takes philosophy to become a good fisherman. One must be patient with the moods of nature and weather and fishes. If these creatures are in no mood for biting, his bustling hurry will only alarm these timorous things, and they dart in alarm into the remotest shelters.

With the right temperament, he comes into hannony with the nature alxjut him. The quiet of the brooks and lakes softens the irritations of like and he is happy under either sunlight or rain drops. He will tramp many miles in wet clothes and with an unre- W'arding catch, when at home he can't walk five blocks to the grocery store. When a man acquires these traits, the fish dinner is tlie least important result of his day's work. Oh, for the life of a

Motor cars which operate on railroad tracks would he required to be equipped with a headlight and a rear tail light just like the big engines. Night liarness races could be held at Freehold by a proposed law, while under the provisions of another bill all Saturdays would be considered public holidays in state, county and municipal offices. Two other bills provide that any person licensed to operate a car in New Jersey would be deemed to have given his consent to a chemical analysis if suspected of being drunk.

All printing paid for by state funds would be required to bear a union label and municipalities would be permitted to designate “no parking” areas in front of offices of physicians and surgeons, by pending bills. Policemen could legally carry a revolver or other weapon while en route to and from work, by another mea.surc.

Persons who refu.se to relinquish a telephone party line in times of emergency could be sent to jail. Quail found in licensed semi-wiId preserves could be shot on Sunday. Sale of a metal tipped arrow to a minor would land the storekeeper in jail. And rainmakers who claim they can produce precipitation on order would be licensed by the state.

ElectionMunicipal officials in 19 New Jer

sey commission government cities and towns are campaigning these days in preparation for elections scheduled for May 10.

The municipalities are Avalon Borough, .-Xvalon-by-the-Sea, Bayonne, Belmar, Bradley Beach, Brigantine, Camden, Cedar Grove Township, Edison, which was formerly Raritan Township, Harvey Cedars, Margate City, Ne\v Brunswick, North Bergen Township, Ocean City, Pas.saic, Ridgewood Township, Spotswood, Trenton and West New York.

The commission form of municipal government law, comnifinly call ed the Walsh Act, was adopted in 1911 and the City of Trenton was the first to adopt it. Later in 1935 the city embraced the municipal manager system but changed back to commission government in 1939.

Beverly, Medford Oaklyn and Rahw'ay adopted commission government but subsequently abandoned it and returned to old form of government.

The City of Newark operated under the Walsh Act from 1917 to

1953 when it changed to a strong Mayor-Council form of government The City of Hoboken governed under the Walsh 2 ct since 1915, decided to change its government in 1951. It later voted to have Mayor-Council form of government.

WarningRobert Cushman Murphy, chair

man, Department of Birds, Ameri can Museum of Natural History, is sued a warning to conservationists of New Jersey and other eastern states at the Wildlife .Association convention in Atlantic City recently.

First, he said, it would be very unwise to assume that the wealth of the sea and its vast cubic content are sufficient to prevent depletion by human exploitation. Secondly, he urged that states purchase and set aside more land, both wet and dry, for future hunting ami conservation purposes, while tlie opportunily remain.s.

The glamor of the Orient and the lyricism o f some of his passages- description of the farm land,_ the snaring of a rabbit and even o f Jason himself—give a beauty to the novd without which the novel would be only another escape story. And to some “ Coromandel 1” will be a wonderful escape piece.

MinorsNew Jersey has memorialized the

Governor and Legislature of New York State to give favorable and early consideration to enactment of legislation to increase from 18 to 21 years the minimum age of persons entitled to purcliase intoxicating liquors in New York Slate.

However, recent decisions of W illiam Howe Davis, New Jersey State Alcoholic Beverage Control Director, reflect a disregard for the law prohibiting the sale o f liquor, wines and beers to minors by some tavern owners of the Garden State. In the past week. Director Howe penalized five tavern owners for selling booze to minors and during February, eight licensees were ordered to close their taverns for various periods of time for the same offense.

The cases usually involve men in uniform, young girls accompanied by older escorts and 18-year-old youths served beer by waitresses who forget to inquire about age.

New York State could properly point a finger at New Jersey’s efforts to enforce tlie alcoholic beverage ban on drinking minors, especially when the armed forces welcome 18- year-olds and the fact that many teen-agers nowadays are over six feet tall.

CropsNine staple crops in New Jersey

are expected to be planted on increased acreage this spring, according to the Stale Department of A griculture.

The intended acreages of corn, barley, fall sown rye, sweet potatoes, hay and soybeans are expected to be larger than last year. White potato intentions show no change at this time and the acreages of winter wheat and oats are smaller than in 1954. Corn shows the largest increase, being estimated at 213.000 intended acres, an increase of 12,000 over last season.

If growers follow out their early intentions there will be 2,000 more acres of barley; 1,000 more acres of sweet potatoes, 5.000 more acres of- all types of hay and 7,000 acres more of soybeans. The planted acreage of winter wheat is 9,000 acres under last season but the acreage of fall planted rye is 7,000 above a year ago.

In all ,the nine staple crops will larger in 1955 than a yearbe 3%

New Tax Deadline Helps'rhe new tax deadline which falls on April 15 can be said to

worth money and some taxpayers know it. By having an additional month to pay up many citizens are able to spend some of the money they would otherwise have had to put away for taxes in March and can hold off until April to get the money for the levy.

This is especially true of a businessman who records a varying profit monthly. In prior years, he had to take most of his March pllections and sometimes more and lay it aside for taxes. Now he is permitted to spend some of this money and can wait until April to pay his taxes, some of it from April profits.

Thus the Government is giving these taxpayers more of a break than they thought. The taxes will show up the same on the books, but the extra time often amounts to money.

f o r the fellow who lives day by day, the extra month may give him a good chance to get ahead, whereas otheihvise he would be operating on the old tax schedule.

A striking example of the beginning o f wliat seems hopefully to be an educational swing back toward love of God atnl country and respect for our American economic system is to be found in the transformation wrought in the controversial high scIkk)! civics textbook, Magruder’s “ .American Ck)vernment,” a national scholastic “best seller” for 38 years.

Spirit of America In the 1955 edition these passages

do not ajipear. Here is an excerpt typical of the orientation of the rewritten 1955 book: “.As the leader of the free nations of the world, the United States is working for a lasting peace among all nations. But at the same time we know that the only sure guarantee of peace in today’s strife-torn world lies in our own strength and in that o f our allies. \\ e oppose the Soviet-led communist dictatorships because we love liberty even more than we prize peace. W e agree with Patrick Henry that peace is not to be bought at the price of chains and slavery.”

In 1953, 375 municipalitiei reported increased percentages of

EDUCATIONAL GOOD NEWSBack in the 1930’s when our na

tion was wallowing in one of the several depressions that have oc curred in our upward march to constantly better living conditions, some important people among the educational forces fell that the American private enterprise system had proved to be a failure and should be changed. They joined with other forces —some sincere people and some scheming Communist conspirators— to reorient education in the United States, to prepare a coming generation for some form of collectivism.

Their efforts sliowed up in many textbooks, in classrooms, lectures, and in a mushrooming propaganda program, beamed to adults, which pointed up and over-emphasized the defects in our system of capitalism and claimed great advantages for various forms o f collectivism. Communist Russia had just been recognized with approval by President Roosevelt, and in the cultural and literary groups in ilie East, where the concentration of Communist agents was heaviest, the collectivism envisioned by Karl Marx and championed by the Russian Reds attracted many influential intellectuals.

Frowned on PatriotismAt the end o f World War II, the

conspirators who were by then manipulating propaganda in every field of .American life needed to break down the American citizens’ love of country and their will to safeguard its system, and thus prepare the way for a take-over by the Communists. "Patriotism” became a word used only by “ reactionaries.” Loyalty to tfle J 'Orld under “world government” became an aspiration toward which many school children were directed. “World citizenship” was a slogan on many campuses.

It has taken a number of years for the insidious aims of the conspirators behind this collectivist world-government scheme to be recognized by important people in education. Some were duped by the con.spirators. In fact, in some cases loyal Americans were so confused they lent their talents to formulating educational ma^wials and tcch-

By MARGARET A. MOTT Mercer County Home Agent

New Fabric FinishesAll fabrics found on the market!

today iiave some type of finish applied to them in the manufacturing process before they come to the counter for your use. Usually fabrics having a finish of one type or another carry a label indicating the nature of the finish and some information on its proper care.

Finishes that are added to fabrics fall into two major classifica' lions. Some finishes are added to enhance the appearance and achl to the properties of the fabric. Other finishes add only temporary attractiveness to the fabric surface.

Those that fall into the first cate gory are usually of a peniianent nature and the treated fabric can be laundred or dry cleaned by standard methods. The tejnporary finishes usually do not penetrate the surface, therefore the finish may disappear in the first laundering or dry cleaning.

When purchasing fabrics or ready tp»vrewr, kbel d e iT - •mine type of finish applied and what method of care should be used in order to obtain the longest life from the fabric. If the fabric is washable, be certain to follow exactly the directions for care to retain the fabric finish through the life of the garment.

It is safe to say that if the label indicates “dry clean only,” that the homemaker should follow these instructions implicitly or bad results may occur. Many times even if the fabric is washable itself, the findings used on the garment may not be "wash fast.”

There arc some “ finishing products" on the market that can be used in the laundry process to replace the “ temporary” finishes that have washed out of some fabrics. Some packaged finishes that are available to the consumer today are anti-static agents, water-repellents, fire-retard- ants or stiffening agents. Others import different specific qualities. Directions on labels must be followed carefully for successful results.

That 'Old Pine Look’New pine paneling can be treated

•Restoring Furniture Finishes

If you have a piece of varnished furniture which is showing some hairline checking, you can slow up this tendency by a fairly simple treatment. You can also brighten many varnished pieces which have taken on a cloudy appearance and freshen worn shellac finkshes.

The hairline checking of varnish finish is often cau.sed by exjK>sure to sunlight or heat and by smldcn or repealed changes in temperature. It may also be caused by too mucli or to<j little moisture in the wood before the finish was put on, or the way the veneer was cut and which side was used for the outside surface. To slow up this tendency to check, wash the finish with 1 quart hot water, 3 tablespoons boiled linseed oil, and 1 tablesjHKm gum turpentine. Wipe off with a cloth moistened in clear warm water and wipe dry. When the piece is thoroughly

tion as a scavenger and as such may lie lound in great flocks about nui- iiicipal garbage dumps. Sometimes great numbers may be observed feeding on golf links or following plows and cultivators over cultivated lands. Wherever it is to be seen ii usually must be recognized for its general beauty and for its excellence as a flier. .

The Herring Gull is just over 2 feel long with a wingspread of just under 5 feet. Its tail is about ly^ inches long and its bill about 2 ^ inches long. The female is slightly smaller than the male. The back is gray and tlie wings are black tipped with a narrow margin of white to tlie rear. The head, tail and underparts are white and the legs flesh- colored. The bird is conspicuously larger than tlie Ring-billed Gull but ihe tail of the immature Herring Gull has broad dark band at the end while that of the Ring-billed has a narrow black band near the end. The legs of the Herring Gull are pink to flesh-colored while those of the Ring-billed are yellowish. Immature Herring Gulls are for the most purl a uniform brown but by the second winter they develop the broad black tail tip and by the next vear the white tail.

Herring Gulls usually nest on the ground but on occasion may nest in trees. Little nesting material is used. The 3-5 eggs are highly variable and may be light blue, green, drab, brown or cinnamon and may be spotted or blotched. They are nearly 3 inches long and to 2J4 inches through. Incubation is for from 21-28 days with both parents taking part. The young birds are able to walk about soon after they are hatched and there is but one brood a year.

The food of Herring Gulls varies greatly. It may come from almost any source whether this be on the surface of the sea or on a farni in some highland. It may be garbage, insects, young birds, mice or plant material. Where the nests arc close to duck nests the food may be the eggs or young of ducks. Because of this the birds are not naturally popular with sportsmen. However, they perform such a valuable function in destroying farm pests that their value to farmers must be taken into consideration in giving them a proper evaluation. The fact that they frequently work in great flocks rather than as individuals makes them of particular importance where insects may be present in sufficient abundance to be considered as plagues. Herring Gulls may eat shellfish. They may fly into tiie air witli a clam and drop it on rocks below, breaking the shell and permitting the bird to eat the soft inner parts.

One cannot overlook the beauty o f the birds assessing their true worth. A flight o f gulls behind a ferry boat, a group following a trac-

"tnr tm fnrm A ilUftratinj;group flying high in the air is always worth watching. The National Wildlife Federation asks that these birds be better understood by all.

'fl ese are busy days. Trout season ri only nine days off and the boys are looking over the fishing equip-

™Now is the time to check the rods, reels, lines, bools and other items that go with the sjwrt. The Fish and Game Division is out stocking more than 200,000 trout prior to the opening. So it is up to the fiesher-nian to be ready. n i

Of course, don’t forget the fishing license. All persons over H yeat-s ol age need one at a fee o f $3.15. rn addition a $1 trout stamp must be purchased and affixed to the license ectlificate. They may be secured from Borough Clerk Elsie Liedtke at Borough Hall or Clayton s Sports Store, Mercer street.

Ray McNamara has had them a- round since last weekend and expects to keep tossing lettuce at them until this Saturday. One of the white rascals hopped out o f his bunk Sunday night and Mac got some extra exercise chasing him a- round the store Monday morning. Yea, he caught him. Many moms and’ pops have been getting the big eye from the youngsters when they peep in the window for a look-see. You know the story, “ Daddy can I have one of the bunnies.’’

The U. S. Navy keeps up-to-date some 6,700 nautical charts and 1,000 aeronautical charts and publishes 8 million copies a year.

Trenton.—Anglers were warned today by the State Division o f Fish and Game that it is unlawful to angle with fly, bait or lure, or with hook and line, in the streams, ponds or lakes stocked with trout for the 1955 season before the season opens at 8 a.ni. Saturday, April 16.

From the Hackettslown Fish Hatchery, the Division expects to distribute 240,(X)0 trout in the public streams of the state before the season gets underway. The stocking of ponds began on \Iarch 14 and during tlie next two weeks suitable public streams will receive allotments of trout.

Dr, Joseph IL McLean, State Commissioner o f the Department of Conservation and Economic Development, and Dr. A. Heaton Underhill, director of the Division of Fish and (jame, are looking forward to excellent trout prospects for the new season. Dr. McLean has requested that every effort be made to see that New Jersey streams continue to produce good trout fishing.

The new trout season will extend uninterruptedly to and including November 30. Other than the opening day, fishing hours shall be from sunrise to 9 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. During the entire season there will be no minimum size limit on trout. The creel limit will be 8 trout per day, of which number not more than 4 trout may be taken from designated fly-fishing water. The possession limit is one day'" catch.

Saturday stocking of trout which proved so popular last year will be continued under the supervision of the Division this year. This gives the weekend fisherman a chance at the trout during the entire season. A majority of the Brown trout on hand at the hatchery will be held over for stocking during the season. Rainbow and Brook trout predominate in the current pre-season distribution program.

Mights Inn Blanks Craft for Top Spot

The see-saw race continued in the Woman’s League last week and saw the Old Hights Inn oust Diamond Craft from the first spot as the two clubs hooked up in the top duel of the night.

Sparked by Clara Cornell, 163 and Peg Livingston, 161, the Inn crushed the Upholsters, 3-0, to take over first place. The Craft dropped to the runner-up post.

Three teams were tied for third, 2J4 games off the pace. They are the Town Shop who nipped Craig & Sons, 2-1; Ted’s Gulf and the Floli day Inn who split a trio o f tilts.

Two oilier matches saw Jim's Drive-In trip Tindall Equipment, 2-1 and Blumenthal’s register a similar decision over Hightstown Rug Co.

Other high scores were registered by Helen Hutchinson, 165, Mary Wink, 165, 185, Jim’s; M. Valpreda, Kyj, Tindall; P. Smith, 161, A. Sanford, 163, Rug; Irene Norcross, 187, E.

I Sweet Corn Reminder*I He sure to treat early sweet corn j seed with a combination fungicide land insecticide to protect the seed I rot and soil insects. Because I of the coolness of the soil, germination is slower, and young plants start slowly. This gives diseases and insects a ciiance to attack the newly germinated seed. Treating seed goes a long way toward remedying this trouble.

Use 800 pounds of an 8-8-8 complete fertilizer at planting time with tlie band machine. Fertilizer applied with the band machine does not come in contact with the seed, but is placed about two inches away. As plants start to develop, nitrogen, phosphorus and potash from the fertilizer will be close by to give them a good start.

Many of the lighter types of early sweet corn soils show a magnesium deficiency. Unless dolomitic liming material has been applied to the soil recently, or if the soil test shows a deficiency of this material, mix in magnesium sulphate at the rate of 50 to 100 pounds to the ton of fertilizer. Fertilizer companies will be glad to include the magnesium in your fertilizer.

After the plants are up about 15 to 20 inches it may be necessary to add more nitrogen as side-dressings and cultivate it into the soil along the row. Later on when the tassels begin to show, another application of nitrogen or a complete fertilizer may be needed.

Vegetable Weed ControlRecommendations for chemical

control of weeds in vegetable crops for 1955 cover 12 crops: Asparagus, carrots, parsnips, celery seedlings, parsley, cucumbers, cantaloupes, spinacli, sweet corn, onions, peas and lima beans.

You can reduce weeds in these crops by planning your operations now for pre-emergence or post- emergence application.

Weed control chemicals must be used with accuracy. Carefully follow directions as to the amount of both materia! and the water mixture, per acre. The amount to be applied will depend on the use of proper type of nozzle, the pressure suggested and maintained and the thoroughness and timeliness of the application. I’ criodically you must check the amount of spray your eqnipmeiit ti? delivering per acre.

You can spray the entire ground surface or the area just over the row. The latter is suggested when cultivation between rows will be done to break soil crusts to aerate

the soil. If the entire surface is sprayed, the first cultivation and frequently some of those which follow can usually be eliminated.

Cultivation will depend on the character and condition of the soil.

The roots of plants must have air and receive it only through fairly deep cultivation a distance from the base of the plants.

A copy of the “ 1955 Vegetable Weed Control Recommendation for New Jersey” is available at the County Extension Service office, Court House, Trenton.

Early Crops on a RidgeExcessive soil moisture rather

than a lack of moisture is the most important reason why many of the early planted crops should be planted on a ridge.

The ridge method of planting has many advantages, when you consider the soil, its drainage and the amount of rainfall that may occur during the early spring. Where drainage is not sufficient during heavy rainfall planting on ridges has. in many instances, saved the crop and brought it to early maturity.

The common procedure with ridge culture is to plow the soil in the usual way, broadcast about two- thirds of the fertilizer you plan to use and then thoroughly disk it into the surface.

Then make the ridge about 6 inches higher than the center of the row by pulling the soil in, either with disks or shovels. Firm the soil on the ridge before planting the seed or setting the plants.

Firming the soil on the ridge is especially important when sowing .seed because numerous instances have been observed where the soil was not firmed sufficiently and a depressed crop growth resulted because of its looseness. This soil must be firmed mechanically so that norma! plant growth can develop.

Keep Calcium HandyStaring in April and continuing

through the summer, special attention must be paid to maintenance of egg quality. Egg shells become thinner and weaker, meaning that special care in handling is necessary to avoid breakage and cracks.

To help the hen continue to produce strong shelled eggs, be sure an unlimited supply of ovster shell or limestone grit is available for the laying fk>rk

Keep it clean so they will eat it. A few handfuls sprinkled on top of the mash ration is a means of in

creasing consumption of some of this important shell forming material.

To keep egg breakage to a minimum during this critical period of the year, place no more than 1(X) eggs in any basket, See that all nests are well filled witli clean nesting material.

Check the number of nests in the laying pen and be sure you have the recommended one nest for every five birds. If your flock is giving high egg production, more nests added to the pen will help to control breakage.

It is important to make every egg count. Your income will be affected upward l>y reducing egg breakage.

Litter ManagementLaying house litter can cause

trouble at this season, as every poultryman knows. J. C. Taylor, extension poultryman at Rutgers University, suggests details of management to keep litter loose and dry.

All wet litter should be removed and replaced by new, he says. Hydrated or ground limestone applied to the litter at the rate of 1 pound to 15 square feet helps keep litter loose. It has little effect on moisture content o f the floor litter,

The scattering of a few handfuls of scratch grain in the litter the first thing in the morning and late in the evening helps to keep the litter stirred up. If this doesn't keep the litter in loose condition, it is necessary to stir the litter frequently either with a machine or fork it over.

Ventilation of the poultry house or pen is an important factor in Ht- ler condition. The object of ventilation is to remove excess moisture from the pen. Each house seems to present its own special problem.that must be worked out by the owner.

71% Approval For President

by KENNETH FINK Director, Princeton Retearch Service

Prinrrtrm —PrewUxiiu . Lihcnhowcr is more popular today with rank and file New Jersey voters than he has been at any time sinch March, 1954

larity check shows that more than 7 out of 10 of the state's voters interviewed in the statewide survey approve of the way the President is handling his jobe in the White House.

This is an increase o f 2 points since early Febru.try when his popularity index stood at 699i

In March, 1954. the New Jersey Poll Eisenhower popularity barometer registered an approval vote of 75%. By June, it dropped to 6 ^ ; in October, it registered 7(1%; in December, it dropped to 63%—the low point since measurements began 25 months ago. And in early February it climbed back to 69%.

In conducting today’s Poll on Mr. Eisenhower’s popularity, a continu ing feature of the New Jersey I’oll, staff reporters put this question to a cross-section of voters across the state:

“Do you approve or disapprove of the way Eisenhower is handling his job as President?”

The statewide results:Approve 71%Disapprove 22No opinion 7

Nine weeks ago. the favorable vote was 699^; the unfavorable vote, 24%, while 7% expressed no opinion

Today’s unfavorable vote is the lowest it has been since March, 1954, when 21% expressed disapproval.

GARDENOLOGY

Many persons will have gardens this year -for the first time. Others who have had gardens may benefit by the advice given here, says Charles H. Connors of Rutgers University.

All gardeners are itching to get their fingers into the soil, but don't be in too much of a hurry. Some soil, especially in new developments,

^ , , I is in poor condition and many oldershellac. Apply with 3/0 steel woo! j n o n e too good. Too p;id, rubbing with the Wipe haste in digging may result inwith a hntless cloth. Shellac ipustijej-joyg damage to the physical con- be fresh. Old shellac remains sticky ditioii of the soil and will not dry.

Coif us terfoy—there's ao ohfigotfonf

He ready with your organic matter, lime—pulverized limestone, if you can get it—and fertilizer and then wait to dig until the soil is in fit condition. It's better to try to improve the soil you have than to bring in good topsoil, which is hard to come by and expensive.

And you may run into the same ■ a&- a. i t-tlK'inc

with the other day. He bought some topsoil and it was full of a pesky weed that he is liaving a hard time to get rid of.

Wait until the soil is in fit condition to dig before you spread your organic matter. Among simple tests to tell when a soil has lost enough of its excess moisture to be in fit

condition to dig is to turn over a forkful and hit it a smart whack with liie back of the fork. If it breaks up fine, go aliead and dig. If it remain in large wcl lumps, wait a while.

Another lest is to take a handful of soil and squeeze it. Then hold it at arm's length, palm down, and drop it to a firm surface. If it falls with a thud and sticks l6gether, it it too wet to dig. If it breaks apart in small particles, go ahead.

Spread the organic matter evenly, then strew on this your fertilizer at the rate of 2 ^ pounds to 100 square feet of 5-10-5 or similar analysis. If you use pulverized limestone, spread this, either at the rate suggested by a soil test or about 3 pounds to 100 square feet. If you use hydrated lime, spread about two-thirds that amount and spread it only on as much soil as you can turn in one working period. Then turn it all under, thrusting the digging tool vertically into the ground to get full depth. Break the soil up as you go, so as to get as thorough a mixture as possible.

Spare your back and do not try to dig too much in one period, until your muscles become hardened to this work.

•HAZEL & EDNA REPAIR

We hope we shall not be visited by any more hurricanes as we were last summer, says Charles H. Connors of Rutgers University. The damage done to trees was considerable.

As we go about, we see where people have tried to repair this damage. Sometimes these attempted repairs, while they make the tree look a little better, are not much more of a protection than if nothing was done.

Any jagged end o f a branch should be cut back to the next side branch. Leaving a stub usually provides a good entrance for decay organisms. When the main branch is cut back to a side branch pointing in the direction you would like growth to take place, and the wound is properly treated, better healing usually results.

Ill many cases, a poor crotch 'ifi'ords a place where the whole branch can tear away, leaving a bad wound. The remedy in this case is to dean up the broken place with a chisel, sc that the wound is smwth, and then treat that for quicker healing.

This latter case is a warning. We should not allow branches to develop with a sharp angle from the trunk. Furthermore, it is always wise to bok over the tops of trees to see whether double leaders are forming at a sharp angle. If these grow at equal rates, damage will frequently develop by splitting.

When double leaders are relatively small, one can be taken out, leav

tke ikat -points into rection of the prevailing w in tT ^ ter they become larger, two inches or more in diameter, usually the treatment is to cut one of them W k to a side branch, thus suppressing the upward growth. If they become very large, the remedy is bolting or cabling, which is expensive.

After making a cut on any branch larger than two inches thick, be sure to <x)Hl the wound with shellac and then with tree wound paint.
