Nitrogen Lack Shows In Farm Crop Colors ; st Pale Green Often Means Low Protein Content The culprit responsible for the pale green color and spindly growth of many pastures and fields of small grains last spring was lack of nitrogen, according to W.

JAPAN: Tells Secret In guarded memoirs left after his arrest as a war criminal, .former Jap Premier Prince Konoye left some glimpses of the maneuvering that marked his countrys diplomacy before the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor. One of the top disclosures was Konoyes report on the evolution of a peace plan covering the Far East after unofficial negotiations in which former Postmaster General Walker and Bishop Walsh of the Catholic Maryknoll missionaries figured with government knowledge. Sabotaged by Japanese officials, the plan called for Jap withdrawal from China, restriction of immigration thereto, and in the restoration of the open-dotrade policy. In return the U. S. was to recognize Manchuria. In another revelation, Konoye re- ported Russias tentative agreement suicide to prevent behind-the-scen- Composed of war widows and children and men needed to care for their families in Japan, first batch of Nipponese repatriates are shown aboard small steamer leaving Shanghai.

In corn when nitrogen hunger develops about midsummer,' the older or lower leaven of the plant turn yellow near the midrib and may gradually die. Farmers sometimes mistake ni trogen-hungsigns in corn for drouth injury. Where small grains and grasses are concerned, a lack n of nitrogen not only results in color but later maturity and lower yields. One of the other serious effects of nitrogen deficiency is a low protein content in crops, for proteins cannot be formed without nitrogen, This has an adverse effect in meat and dairy cattle raising, for low pro-- 1 tein crops have a low feeding value. Dr. Pierre pointed out that there are three ways in which nitrogen can be added to the soils so that crop needs can be met. One is through the growth of legumes, another is through the use of manures and crop residues and the third is through the use, of fertilizers containing nitro- With President Truman throwing his full weight behind a merger of the fighting services, early congressional action on unification of the army, navy and air forces was fore- seen. Meanwhile, rougher sailing loomed on the chief executives proposal for compulsory militaryi training for youths 18 to 20 years of age to build up an experienced reserve adequate meet future emergencies. In casting his lot for the merger of the armed forces after strenuous naval objections to unification, Mr. Truman called for a single department of national defense under a civilian head, with assistants for the various branches, and a military chief of staff, with commanders from the three services. The military leaders would join with the President1 in an advisory council. Maximum efficiency would result from unification, tpe President declared, because close would acquaint each branch of the armed forces with the capabilities and limitations of the others, and economy would be achieved by eliminating a duplication of effort to er pale-gree- j and supply. FARM BUREAU: gen. Discuss Humidity for Storage Apples Is Important Despite imperfections in the present parity formula, American farmers were urged to Parity retain the system by Secretary of Agriculture Anderson addressing the annual convention of the Farm Bureau in Chicago, 111. specifReferring The successful storage of apples depends on the ability of the individual to read . the danger signs. When apples show signs of wilting or shriveling, it is an indication that the surrounding atmosphere or humidity is low, according to Purdue university. The dry air is absorbing the moisture from the produce, thus , the apple shrinks. Sprouting and rotting results from warm and moist temperatures and lack of proper ventilation. Contain-er- s should be open and kept off the floor and away from the wall. Apples should be stored, at 34 to 3S degrees and 75 to 80 per cent humidity. Ventilation, sound produce, proper temperature and humidity are essential. to the gov- , production. ONeal, farm bureau president, called for all agricultural groups to unite on an over-al- l, plan rather than insist on a separate system for each commodity. Pointing up the need for additional rural health and education facilities, Senator Hill (Dem., Ala.) said that with millions of farm dollars ending up as profits in industrial districts after consumer purchases, only federal taxation and expenditures for social service could assure the return of some of the money back to agricultural areas for public purposes. -- UNO: ; The new improved Jeep, adapted for peacetime work, combines the four basic functions of tractor, light truck, mobile power unit and passenger conveyance.

Weddings Held at Home Till Invalidated by Clergy Until the Tenth century, the Christian peoples of Europe continued to marry themselves in the home, despite the efforts of the clergy for hundreds of years to have weddings held in the church, says Colliers. At that time, however, the laity began to yield, but only to the extent of performing the ceremony outside of the door of the church in the presence of the priest. This custom lasted until the middle of the Sixteenth century when an ecclesiastical council passed and enforced a law making invalid all marriages held outside the church.

Acting quickly on the enabling legislation, President Truman nominated the U.

Tom Connally (Dem., Texas) and Sen. Arthur Vandenberg (Rep. Mich.). Under the legislation approved, the President can enter into negotiations with the other four members of the security Council of UNO for provision of military forces to suppress aggression, with freedom to permit their use after congressional sanction of the arrangements. The President also will be able to join in the imposition of economic boycotts to bring a troublemaker into line. es Gems of Thought FARM CROPS: Years Review Relief At Last ForYour Cough Creomulslon relieves promptly because it goes right to the seat of the trouble to help loosen and expel germ laden phlegm, and aid nature to soothe and heal raw, tender, bronchial mucous membranes.
