THE BANGOR DAILY NEWS BANGOR MAINE SATURDAY MAY 13 1939 pH NEWS WANT ADS DIAL 6441 Important Aerial Survey In Progress thousand Square Miles Around Bangor Being photographed by Men Flying 14000 Feet Above Earth Use Oxygen for Altitude Work Survey Being Done for Government St Joseph Plumber Go to Work in Conducting Aerial Survey Here With The Extension Service And Penobscot County Farm Bureaus AGRICULTURAL CONSERVATION Many fanners are asking why the lime they have ordered aa a of haa not yet been delivered The reason is that the State Highway Department has temporarily prohibited transportation of heavy loads north of a line which paste through south Penohecot county This line is so located that shipment for the present is prohibited to most towns in the county Since we have been unable to determine exactly when this regulation will be removed we do not advise farmers to put off seeding until their lime is delivered We believe it better if the farmer will proceed with his seeding and apply his lime later except on potato farms The farmers except potato farmers could apply the lime on top at the earliest opportunity following seeding If the oats or peas in which the seeding is made become too large so that travelling through them with a lime sower would Injure the crop the next best time to apply the lime would be directly after the oats or peas are removed Neither of these methods is as good as harrowing the lime in but can be followed as the next most desirable procedure when lime is not available at the time of seeding The potato firmer should not apply lime on top It should be harrowed In Thorough mixing with the soli Is necessary to avoid scab Farmers who find It impossible to use their lime at any time during the spring or summer could well plan to apply 'it this fall on land to be seeded next spring The Joy Boys 4-H chib of Garinas held a special meeting Saturday at the home of their Vocal leader Mm Angie Perrivai where assistant county agent Coleman Randall discussed lime and it's uee in maintaining soU fertility and aarteteH the boy in making plana for a tennis court which the boys are planning to build as a club project and discussed how the court should be built Quake la California AUTO INSURANCE The Alton Bees 4-H dub led by Mrs Hermon Hopkins has adopted a set of 23 rules a a a dub constitution At their first meeting which was held at the Brown school house dub members seared food and health habits Probate Notices Mrs Eleanor Bowen discussed care of pigs and gardens at the test 'club meeting of the Mt Sundae 4-H club of Burlington which is led by Mrs Cl arise Thornton Mrs Thornton also showed the girls bow to do even and uneven basting At Trefeaw Coart he at Baa or ta ted for Uw Count of Pans i rot aa twelfth da?
