JACKSONVILLE Sen Richard Russell said Thursday night Sen Estes Kefauver of Tennessee has been using tactics in his bid for the Democratic presidential nomination Russell used the description of his opponent's campaign in a radio speech here It was the opening gun in his fight against Kefauver for delegate support in next second Florida primary The Georgia senator referred to appearance last week end before the Washington meeting of Americans for Democratic Action (ADA) accurately it should be known as a group for anti-demo-cratic action because this little organization of self-styled liber als actually seeks less democra cy rather than more democracy In this he said What made the ADA meeting significant Russell said was the fact that one of the speakers none other than my opponent in Florida the junior senator from and his hackers were seeking ADA indorsement for his Russell went on opponent demanded an even more liberal platform for the Democratic party in 1952 than it had in 1948 swallowing of ADA pol icies to obtain backing Is in line with the ring-around-the rosy tactics that my opponent has been the Georgia sen-a tor said he was campaigning In Florida for the

scientists Dade county avocado and lime grojvers Thursday heard Gallatin Soil Conservation Service scientist describe a new program for irrigating groves By Gallatin's method a grove is watered only when the soil moisture content reaches the for the trees Heretofore groe owners water-ed at regular intervals Gallatin reported that his "cycle of irrigating resulted not only in saving of money- but produced almost twice as much fruit as the conventional program for irrigating Dr Walter Reuther of the Agriculture Orlando experiment station reported that citrus grove owners in the sandy oils of central Florida may save money by cutting phosphate out of their fertilizer mixture Most of these central Florida soils have a natural supply of phosphate for the trees to draw Dr Reuther said owners in these areas need to apply phosphates only when soil tests show a need for Dr Reuther also advised growers that higher quality citrus could be produced by some changes In traditional fertilizer practices The traditional practice has been to apply a fertilizer containing lots of potash and a medium amount of nitrogen But research by Dr Reuther has shown that the best citrus is produced by the opposite formula high nitrogen and a medium amount of potash (Dr research was done in the sandy soils of central Florida and his recommendations were not meant to include the limestone area of southeast Florida) Dr Reuther's first report on his research with citrus fertilizers made last year before the Florida State Horticultural society at West Palm Beach baa been hailed as the most important findings affecting citrus culture in 20 years The Thursday meeting sponsored by the Avocado and Lime Growers Association and the county office was held at the Redland District Lions Club on Silver Palm dr Several other research reports affecting limes and avocados were made Dr John Malcolm of the Subtropical Experiment- Station suggested that growers could save money by fertilizing lightly rather than heavily during the rainy season He added that fertilizers might have to be applied up to six times a year rather than three or four if the light application method was used A recommendation that grow-ers band together in raising the quality standards of their limes and avocados was made by Dr Paul Harding of the Agriculture Department's Orlando experiment station It was Dr Harding who headed the research which resulted in determining standards" for orarges and grapefruit which was the basis for the citrus maturity code passed in 1949 by the state legislature Kimball 61
