It’s much easier to carve
roasted meat if you allow it
to “rest” about 15 minutes
in a 170 degree F. tempera-
ture after cooking. The
meat’s texture also is im-
proved.

By Max Smith
DURING THE past week
we have received a number
of phone calls from property
owners all over the city
and county regarding the
dried condition of their
broadleaf evergreens such as
holly and azalea; the leaves
are turning brown and drop-
ping off. I know exactly the
condition of these shrubs be-
cause we have a few of our
own in s'milar trouble. This
is winter injury to these
evergreens caused by excess
dehydration; last February
when the ground was frozen
and we had extremely dry
weather with strong winds,
these plants could not get
enough moisture from the
soil to offset the loss of
moisture from the leaves; as
a result parts of the plant
became too dry and will die;
in severe cases the entire
plant may die. There is little
to do at this time because
the damage is already done;
it might help to get a more
rap'd recovery if the ground
around the plant was thor-
oughly soaked with water
every 10 days for several
times. Pruning of the dam-
aged area is not recom-
mended until later in the
spring when it is definitely
vis'ble just how much of
the branches are dead.
WITH AN excess of corn
silage on many farms this
spring the question is pre-
sented regarding whether or
not this silage will keep
during the summer and un-
til next fall; also, will it
keep in a trench as well
as in an upright silo. If the
silo is tight, there is no rea-
son why the silage will not
keep until this fall; by the
same token silage that is in
a trench that is tightly seal-
ed should also keep until
needed. In warm weather
silage must be removed fast-
er than in cold weather to
prevent surface spoilage.
THE PROBLEM of broad-
leaf weed control in lawns
faces many homeowners; in
the near future dandelion
and plantum will be show-
ing rapid growth. The
cheapest way to control
these weeds is to spray the
lawn with the amine form
of 2,4-D; however there is
some risk with this spray to
other plants and many folks
do not have large enough
sprayers. Therefore, the eas-
iest way to eliminate these
weeds is to buy a lawn
fertilizer containing the pow-
der form of 2,4-D. This fer-
tilizer is applied with a fer-
t:lizer spreader in the usual
manner and sufficient herbi-
cide will be applied to knock
out most of these broadleaf
weeds; this fall or next
spring it is advised to re-
peat the treatment for good
control.
SHEEP PRODUCERS are re-
m‘nded of the need to get
their sheep sheared in the
near future; there is little to
be gained by allowing the
animals to carry this wool
until warm weather. In fact,
there could be some loss of
wool and, in addit'on, the
ewes will not milk as well
for their lambs when carry-
ing a heavy fleece in hot
weather. The sheep should
be dry when sheared and
the wool kept clean and in
a dry place. With the local
demand for wool being very
poor the wool pools in both
Berks and Cumberland
Count.es offer about the best
market. At these pools the
wool is graded and the own-
er is paid on the grade and
quality basis. Fleeces should
be tied with the flesh side

THE Prayer of the Week
The evening prayer this week is by Elmore Mec-
Neill McKee:
“O God, who has set the solitary in families, who
dos? join man to man in friendship, and who dost en-
kindle the hearts of nations to draw near to one an-
other, grant us thy gift of understanding. Make us
sensitive to all troubled, lonely, disappointed persons.
Make us sympathetic with all who are bereaved, frus.
trated, and ill.
“Make us eager to bear the burdens of the un-
employed, the poor, and the homeless, people of all
races and classes. Teach us to bless those who curse us,
to pray for those who spitefully use us, and to forgive
those who speak ill of us, or reject and pass us proudly
by. Take our spirits to those deep well-springs of life
eternal where Jesus met thee face to face. Leave us ill
satisfied till thy love flows through us, and no barrier
of our own mars the fulfillment of thine eternal pur-
pose in us. Amen.”
