Cellophane covered War Stamps tied with red, white, and blue ribbon form the bouquet. This new patriotic fashion trend, designed as a novelty to promote the sale of War Savings Bonds and Stamtis, is sweeping the country. Like real flowers, the Victory corsage should he worn only a few times. Then the Stamps should bo pasted into a War Stamp Album to aid in tlx purchase of a Bond. F. Peele, 2b 2 0 0 A.

Lovvorn, Experiment Station agronomist, advises thorough, con tinuous cultivation throughout the growing season as the best way to fight nut grass. Experiments have shown that the grass can be elimi nated in two years by clean cultiva tion. However, to be effective, this cultivation should be done at least once every two weeks throughout the season. Certain weed killers call-_ ed herbicides are often used, but they have never proved entirely sat isfactory with nut grass.
