JL JCT ; The big questions In the county are still in regard to pasture settings, so mayoe you woura juxe. to near our answers to another. l. v wnat are the steps in pre paring a good seedbed T A (a) Test the soil and follow the fertilization recommendations. See Seth Long or Frank MoGoogan of the Soil Conservation Department or Bee us at the County Agent's office if you need any help . (by Spread the lime uniformly. Too much lime in one place is just as bad as not enough in anoth er, (c) Disk thoroughly. Flushing is not necessary. Disking 4 to 6 weeks before ' seeding ' time pulverises the soil and leaves the cut up vegetation in the top layer of the soil which pre vents a crust from forming and re sults in more plants coming up. (d) Smooth the seedbed. This can be done with a tandem disk and drag- harrow. (e) Fertilizer materials can be ap plied before or at seeding. Some means should be used to work it into the soil, (f) Before seeding, firm the seed bed in order to get an even dis tribution of the seed and to prevent deep covering. This can be done by dragging several planks nailed togeth er over the seedbed with heavy weights on them. BURGESS H. D.

TVr the present, however, the United States has little choice because It is not prepared for a major war. Neither are its allies, and, consequently, all would probably oppose any attempt to force a showdown with the boviet TTnlnm. The outcome, : in the United.
