'Onward for God and My Countrprogranv" The .theme of "the new program is illustrated by a painting of George Washington' in ; prayer. above" the heads, of a Cub Scout, and Explorer The original painting is to be pre-, sented to. President Eisenhower, or his representative, on February 8, th birthday of the organization. : Famed reproductions of the paint ing are to M presented at state capitals throughout America to gov ernors or other state officials acting for them. These reproductions will be accompanied by a brochure in terpreting the program. . Twelve outstanding Explorers, old. er boy members of the organization, have been selected as representativ es of the nation's twelve regions to go to Washington as partici pants in ceremonies launching the new program. They will visit the white House, the F.BX headquarters where they will be guests of J. Ed gar Hoover, have lunch at the Capitol, and visit George Washing ton's home at Mt. Vernon. At a breakfast in Washington dur ing Boy Scout Week, attended by about 125 leaders representing the Senate, House of Representatives, and national organizations, each young man will be seated next to the Congressman from hit own area. Before ths distinguished group, they will make a "Report to the Nation" on Scoutine's accomplish ments In 1955 'and its Four - Year Program. . . Each of the nation's 538 Boy Scout Councils were asked to name one Explorer for the honor of repre senting Scouting at. the ceremonies In the nation's capital. Considera tion for selection was an outstand ing record in Scouting and school work, appearance, and ability to speak. Because the emphasis of this Scout birthday is "Duty to God". each Explorer selected holds one of the religious awards or has been honored for saving life or has earn ed the Hornaday Award for disting uished service in conservation. Other outstanding Explorers' will participate in ceremonies at state capitals and at city halls and town observances. The twelve "Report to the Nation' Explorers will also visit Valley Forge, Pennsylvania, for ceremonies at that historic site and to inspect the area where the Fourth National Jamboree of the Boy Scouts Of Am erica will be held in July, 1957. Garden Time Bt ROBERT SCHMIDT Most garden soils in North Caro Una require heavy fertilization in order to produce good yields of high quality vegetables and flowers. Also the soils are generally deficient in organic matter. When good stable manure was plentiful it was aot dif ficult to keep up both the fertility and the organic content of the gar den soils, but with the decline in the horse population, the city gar dens at least have lost their princi pal source of organic materials. Plant food in the form of salts of nitrogen, phosphorus and potash can be adequately supplied by mixed fertilizers commonly called "com mercial fertilizers." These are made up of various inorganic and organic materials and sold according to spe. cific formulae such as 5-10-5, 6-8-6, 8-8-8, etc. These figures mean that in a 64-8, formula for example, the mixture contains 6 per cent avail able nitrogen, 8 per cent available phosphoric acid and 6 per cent av ailable potash. Two hundred pounds of such a mixture contains some what more available plant food than ton of stable manure but furnish es none of the valuable organic mat ter, beneficial bacteria and minor elements supplied by manure. Commercial fertilizers re made up of concentrated salts and must be used carefully. If they are al lowed to come into contact, with germinating seeds, roots or leaves they may cause severe injury. Therefore, they should be thorough ly mixed with the soil in the garden or well watered in when applied on top as in lawn fertilization. Most fertilizer recommendations are given in pounds per acre whiclj my be confusing ; to ) t gardener having a few 25 foot rows.

Small Forced Air Curers Available ; Smaller forced Air curers, adapted for aromatic tobacco curing barns, are now available says R. H. Crouse, extension agronomy specialist at N. C. State College. , These small curers may prove to be boon to the "one-acre" grower. Crouse says that the smaller cur ers are interesting many small growers who have not used cur ers in the past because of the high er cost of the larger equipment designed fpr the two to four-acre barns. The agronomy specialist says that all aromatic growers have been asked to use a recommended curer which will furnish a 90 to 100 de gree, thermostatically - controlled heat, and one that will also have . a, uniform distribution ef air with a fan capacity of 8,000 CFM for the 20 by 20 by 10 feet barns.
