R. Dodd, ex tension agronomist of Ohio State university. Professor Dodd meas ured the results in numerous tests j on Ohio farms of nitrogen applica tions in the fall of 1944 and the spring of 1945 and his findings were based on these tests. The nitrogen fertilizer was applied on pastures in the form of ammoni um nitrate at an average rate of 123 pounds per acre in the fall and 115 pounds in the spring. Professor Dodd reported that the effect of the plant food on the i Better cows will result from bet ter grazing conditions. growth of the grass was more pro nounced in fields where legumes made up less than 50 per cent of the stand of grass. But even with , a high per cent of clover the in crease was 68 per cent. In the va rious tests studied, 37 farmers who applied an average of 133 pounds of ammonium nitrate on meadows got an average increase of 1,700 pounds of hay per acre. The fall applications made a dif ference of 1,500 pounds of hay per acre, and spring applications in creased yields on an average of 1,790 ■ pounds of hay per acre. While the average date of fall application of Ohio was October 22, and the nitrogen was placed on the fields in spring as early as possible, Mr. Dodd said the season of appli cations is not as important as is the farmer’s decision to apply the nitrogen one time or another, be cause profitable dividend is assured from either application. :: ~ Know Your Breed Ayrshires By W. J. DRYDEN Strathglass Lucky Puff, nation al champion long distance Ayr shire butterfat producer— lB9,B43 pounds milk, 4 per cent, 7,598 pounds fat in 5,233 days.

The Florida State Railroad I i Commission has reprimanded the Southeastern Telephone Com pany, which serves the Perry area, for failure to expand its jl service anct ordered the company to prepare a detailed statement "as to how you intend improving the local telephone service and reducing your existing overload within a reasonable period of time.” This information was furnish- Itd by the Associated Press to : Florida newspapers which car ried the story Aug. 24. The Florida Telephone Corporation was also reprimanded at the I same time. According to the AP story, the railroad commission, which re | ccntly held a state-wide hearing |on telephone service as the re- I suit of numerous subscriber com plaints, told Southeastern that while lack of new equipment and replacement parts had been ad vanced as a reason fos poor ser vice, ‘‘the situation has worsen , ed to such an extent that the commission can no longer excuse it on the ground that equipment and materials are generally un obtainable.” (The Southeastern Telephone Company claims that it desires to expand its service in this area but equipment is not obtainable.) Raising Child A report says that as a rough j average it costs as much to raise a child and put him through col lege as to buy a house.
