Driving guide available
HARRISBURG - The
Governor’s Energy Council
announced recently that it
has published a new, free,
“Automobile Save Driving
Guide” that is designed to
save drivers energy, money,
and tune.
I
Automobile costs are
constantly increasing. One
can’t ignore or avoid them;
but, costs can be trimmed
and that’s what this money
saving Guide is all about.

The sun shone golden and
the sky was a deep glaze of
delft blue that afternoon. My
farm wife friend, J., walked
to the sweet com patch to
gather fresh com-on-the-cob
for the evening’s supper.
After twisting a long solid
ear from the tall green stalk,
J. carefully pulled the husk
and silk from the vegetable,
exposing fat juicy kernels
inside.
“What are you doing to my
house?” snarled a tiny voice.
Astonished, J. dropped the
ear to the ground.
Liming l tip
FLEMINGTON, N.J.
Should meadows or pastures
be limed’ Yes, if the pH is
below 6.0, one or two tons per
acre of lime should be ap
plied to the surface. Liming
will encourage some of the
more desirable volunteer
forage species, including
clover, to return tc a
meadow, and will also aid
plant growth, according to
the New Jersey Extension
Service.
How much to apply?
That’s, easy. “Test... don’t
guess,” they say. Samples
can be taken easily this time
of year. Use a good sampling
device. A large auger or a
spade will do.
The sample should be
representative of the field or
area being tested. So, take
borings at eight or a dozen
spots, randomly, over the
area. Mix the soil well and
take about a pint of this
mixture for testing.
Guide” can be obtained by

Energy Council, Public

if Ouch! Stop that!”
demanded the voice,
somewhat louder this time.
J.’s curiosity overcame
her surprise. She picked the
ear of com off the ground
and carefully turned it over.
Glowering at her from a
large hole in the center of the
cob was a gray worm with
black speckles down his
back. At two inches long by a
quarter-inch thick, it was the
biggest com worm she had
ever seen.
“Ugh! I hate worms in
sweet com,” she grimaced,
eyeing the ugly pest. “Who’d
want to eat that after you’ve
been in there stomping
around?”
“Well, you’d better get
used to us,” grinned the
nasty intruder. “My entire
family and all our friends
and relatives, all three
billion of us, are lobbying
with the state and federal
regulatory agencies to do
away with all insect sprays.
The worm’s ugly face lit
up at the thought of anti
pesticide legislation. He
closed his eyes and a dreamy
look spread over his coun
tenance.
“Then my cousins could
really move into the or
chards and settle down,
living peacefully amidst the,
peaches, the apples, the
pears, the plums,” he
mused. “All our little wiggly
children could play

vegetables?” J. questioned
the arrogant insect.
“Just tell them that if it’s
healthy enough for a worm,
it’ll be healthy for a person,”
called the worm, as he
crawled back into his cozy
home deep in the com cob.
And as J. left the field,
empty handed, I think I
heard her say: “I wonder if
worms are high in
cholesterol?”
