They are reg i ularly used to conserve moisture, regulate soil temperature and help in the control of weeds. In soil management they influence organic matter to some extent, the activity of soil Microorgan isms, and prevent soil erosion and compaction. Most mulches in common use are some type of organic mater ial — (pine and clean grain straw, I peanut hulls, ground" com cobs. Of these materials, pine and grain straw will decompose more ra pidly than the peanu t hulls and corncobs. Sawdust and wood shavings last longer as mulches because they decompose slowly. Saw dust is likely to become compre ssed and prevent rapid penetra tion to water. If Shavings are used, it must be remembered that an adequate supply of nitrogen is necessary to decompose the woody fibers. i A new material called “Forest i Mulch” is available and is a by J product of saw milling operations. ' It is fortified with plant food elements and shows a guarante 't ed analysis of 1 per cent Nitre . recorded in 1961 by the Sunday School, Foreign (Missionary Soci ety and (Daily Vacation Bible ; School. i New Nazarene work was star , ted in the Republic of Panama in 1961 At year-end, the denomi- j nation had more than 500 full time missionaries in 43 world a ! reas. Special offerings for world1 (missions at Thanksgiving and Easter each exceeded $1,000,000. (The Easter offering of $1,195,000 was a denominational record. gen, 1 per cent Phosphorous and 1 per cent Potash-giving a 1-1-1' ratio. What about peat? Peat is a good and perhaps the best sour ce of organic material avaiable. It is used for mulching, but I believe that it is best to incorpor ate peat with the soil and mulch with something else. Plastic materials and aluminum foil, when used as mulches, do not contribute anything to the soil organic content hut serve a useful purpose in the home vege table and flower garden if prop erly used1. The plastic mulch is being more extensively used by commercial growers of strawber ries and many other crops. After a mulch of organic ma terial settles and weathers, it 'be comes more fixed in location. The soil holds more water and prevents rapid run-off which prevents erosion. Where traffic is heavy, such as between the rows of strawberries, raspberri es and Staked tomatoes, a good mulch prevents soil compaction .1 Whatever mulch you choose, I remember that nitrogen fixing bacteria require nitrates for their use in breaking down organic matter and relate your fertilizer program to the type of mulch you are using. The more woody or fibrous the material the great er the demand for nitrogen.
