There have been so many requests asking if it were possible to start another class , that we are sending out this notice asking you to notify a chairman -near you if you are interested in being a can- teen aid, a iblood bank helper, a chapter house canteen •worli•er, or an Armed Service Worker. This is •a ten; hour -course and the Sta- tion Wagon will transport you to and from the course. If you are interested please call Mrs. M. J.

The wise ,gardener, says ,Mrs. A. 'T. M. Petersen, Livonia Town- ship Victory 'Garden Chairman, never wastesany organic matter. She saves not only manure )but grass clippings leaves and oil .plants and reiorporates them into soil to buildits fertilizer con- tent and to improve its moisture holding capacity. . One . of the best ways to con- serve this material, according' to Mrs. Petersen, is to (build a com- post ipile or dig a compost .pit. Such a pit is not unsightly and can be •placed in a hidden corner of the garden plot. To make it, dig a hole about 4 feet wide, 6 feet long, and 2 feet 'deep, per- ferably in the shade where the composted material can be kept moistened. It the soil is sandy, ,board up the sides to keep them from caving in. In this pit, accumulate grass clippings, leaves, weeds, discard- ed plant materials, vegetable tops, cabbage leaves and other refuse, :being careful not to include any diseased plants which might rein- oculate the soil of growing plants. As the material piles up, spread a layer of soil approximately an inch thick over the compost. (The proper proportion is one inch of soil to four inches of leaves or other material). If available, a (little manure should -also be, added as the bacteria it contains ,will hasten the decomposition. In dry weather sprinkle the com- post often, since it will decay more rapidly if moist. Also turn i Vol. 5, No. 24 Chinese gash Day After a hard day in the field grow- ing food for Maj. Gen.

Compost material can be fort- ified by the addition of a com- mercial fertilizer such as the Spec- ial Victory Garden Fertilizer. It may also be advisable to add about -one -;half pound of lime to each bushel of compost unless the'. soil in your garden is known to', be alkaline. Leaves and other materials :will not decay during the winter months since decom- position is dependent upon bac- terial action and bacteria do not become active until the weather warms up in the spring. -A- Blood Bank Here August 18 Blood Bank will be at the Stark School on August 18th.

I. Besemer This is the time of year for far- mers to review their labor situ- ation. Many .of our Wayne Coun- ty farmers have city boys doing their work on the farm and doing grand job. In most all cases, these boys will be leaving for school soon; therefore, the farmer should let our office know his la- bor needs after the boy leaves. We are at present interviewing more year round, experienced help for farms than at any other time be- fore. Now is the time for farmers to put in their bid. We also find some good sized boys that " are willing to help but for the remain- ing 8 or 7 weeks and :help farmers over the hump. All tomatoes, sweet corn and fruit growers that have a lot of picking to do, should call our office and we will be able to supply pickers by the day. It is a poor policy to let us know the last minute on your vegetable or fruit picking needs. Come to°our (Continued on Page 6) Wesley Hoffman eported Missing Mr and Mw Clarence M.

At present there are a number of returning or dis- charged veterans who are asking for farm jobs. It is our job to try and accommodate these veterans. There are 65,000,000 pounds of cherries to be picked in the Tra- verse City area. You can do your part in the War effort by going to Traverse area and picking cher- ries. You may obtain extra gas for this purpose if you will have four people over 14 years of age in a sedan or two people in a coupe and there must be 80 hours or more of work accomplished per car. If you are planning this trip, Please take your house -trailer or camping equipment if you have such. If you do not possess any of the above, go anyway. Also take along 8, 10, or 12 quart pails. The rate of pay for picking cherries in the Traverse area is 50 cents per lug -a lug ,holds 2:6 poundsof strip- ped cherries. An average picker should pick from 10 to 14 lugs a day. You may also pick and bring back cherries for your own home use and in some areas canning fa- cilities are available. To make out applications for gas and other forms go to your nearest U.S. Em- ployment Service Office, County Agricultural Agent, located at 316 McKerchey Building, 2631 Wood- ward, Detroit. People that have in mind a vacation instead of cherry picking, need not apply. Persons having good producing apricot trees are asked to cooper- ate with the South Haven Experi- ment station in making it ,possi- ble for the station to obtain propa. gating wood. In making this request, Stanley Johnston, superintendent of the South Haven Aation, which is a branch of Michigan State College, explains that the college wishes to continue its search for a pro- ductive type of apricot that would be commercially successful. As the result of offers of individuals two ,years ago, propagating wood was obtained from 50 apricot trees that had good production records. Trees grown from this wood are now being tested at South Haven. Those persons willing to cooper- ate are asked to send Johnston small samples of fruit from their trees. If the fruit sent in appears to be of high quality he desires to obtain, bud sticks or cions of the trees between now and Sept. 1st. Receipt of all samples will be ac- knowledged. It has not been determined just why the apricot has failed to pro- duce successfully outside the far -.western states. Johnston believes that some of the difficulty in Michigan may be due to the fact that apricot trees bloom very early, at least a week before peaches. Thus, the apricot blos- soms frequently are open in cold, rainy, or frosty weather, and the -result is a small set of fruit. By obtaining propagating wood from individuals, the college hopes to develop a variety that will bear well under Michigan conditions. There is a sizable potential mar- ket for Michigan -grown apricots, Johnston explains, and a product- ive apricot variety of good quali- ty would greatly increase the val- ue of the state's industry. Fruit samples and correspond- ence should be sent to Stanley Johnston, superintendent, South Haven Experiment station, South `Haven. 1'ovvnshzp Briefs Den No 4 of LV -1 collected 60 pounds of waste kitchen fat on their drive for the month of July.

Tracks Phone 102, PLYanouth, Mich - How To Sprinkle Your Garden Sprinkling the vegetable gar- den for a short time every even- ing or so may provide recreation for the gardner, but it does more harm than good to the growing crops, says Keith C. Barrons,'as- sociate professor of horticulture, Mit1higan State College. Such watering merely wets the surface of the ground, causing subsequent ,harm to the plants by inducing the development of a shallow root system, Barrons ex- plains. If the gardener deems it nec- essary to supplement rainfall, not less than the equivalent of one inch of rain should ibe applied each time, preferably with a ro- tating -type sprinkler, suggests Barrons. The simplest way to learn if one has applied suf- ficient water is to ;place several shallow, flat pans, such as pie tins, in the area •covered by the sprinkler. It is possible then to estimate the amount of water ap- plied by its depth in the pan. A victory :garden 30 by 50 feet in size would require irrigation for about five 'hours with the sprinkler delivering 3 gallons per minute, Barrons estimates. Ever, though one measures how much water is being applied ,per min- ute, sudden increase in use else- where will cause the pressure to decrease, necessitating a' longer springling ,period. Watering is best done in the evening or after the hottest part of the day because of excessive loss cf moisture due to evapora- io,n, Barrons states.
