EDITORIAL

‘Doesn't Seem Quite Fair
Recently a Strasburg motorist was routed from bed late
sat night, arrested and came mighty near being taken to
“Bradford, Pa., for being implicated in a motor accident
fthere. Judge Atlee and the Lancaster Automobile Club pre-
“vented the latter action and in a few days the innocent vic-
“tim received word he was the “wrong man.”
=. In addition to all this inconvenience there were over $6
Court costs here.
In our estimation there should be a comeback of some
sort for a perfectly innocent man who is inconvenienced and
“embarrassed to such an extent.

- Waste Brings Poverty
Most of our difficulties of an economic nature are sclf-
created. For example most persons with little or nothing
today, have, in the past earned sufficient, which if it had
been wisely invested would have provided for all of their
© needs.
Most persons wasle and fritter away enough time with
foolish and petty trifles to give themselves a good broad edu-
cation through reading and study. Our soil is run down and
depleted in fertility in many sections of the country through

pay to till it until fertility has been restored. Our fine for-
ests have been laid waste with a hand of ruthless. senseless

'T WAIT TOO LONG

Hints to Gardeners
By Gilbert Bentley
Flower Expert
Ferry Seed Station

Looking Toward Fall
ITH the spring planting season
past and the returns already
coming in from this year's flower
gardens, thoughts turn regretfully
to fall.
Let us conclude the summer gar-
den “Hints” with suggestions on
fall bulb planting. Save this in-
formation on how to plant bulbs.
Bulbs are planted in fall to give
them opportunity to develop ample
root growth. It is the safer prac:
tice to protect bulbs in the ground
with a mulch of leaves or straw.
Mulch should be put on after the
ground is frozen hard. It is inten-
ded to protect them from the dam-
age of alternate freezing and thaw-
ing, not from the cold.
One of the most important fae-
tors in successful bulb flower grow-
ing is proper planting. Well-drained
loam should be used. Press soil
around bulbs well so there are no
air spaces.
Depth of planting must be care-
fully measured. Observe these
recommended depths: Anemone, one
inch deep, crocus, snowdrop and
scilla, 2 inches; jonquil and tulip.
3 inches; hyacinth and narcissus, 4
inches, and lily, 5 inches. When
measuring depth, measure from the
top of the bulb. For instance, set
hyacinth under four inches of soil.
Bulbs should be set the following
distances apart: Anemone, 4 to 6
inches, crocus and snowdrop, 2
inches; scilla, 3 inches; jonquil, 6
inches; tulip, 4 inches; hyacinth,
€ inches; narcissus, 6 to 12 inches,
and lily, 12 inches or more.
It always pays to buy bulbs of
fine quality. Good, healthy bulbs
are always firm and comparatively
heavy for their size.
Never allow unmixed fertilizer to
come in direct contact with bulbs.
When fertilizer is used mix very
thoroughly with soil before plant.
