version of the C-5, which had
demonstrated over the past 15 years its
capability to deliver troops and equipment
quickly to points all over the world. And,
it would get the planes sooner, because no
additional research and development

There seems to be no choice about it;

Tips For Town And
Country Living
‘By Ted Clark—-Extension Agent
TRANSPLANTING TIPS
Transplants can be
classified into three categories:
1) Bare root (field Frown); 2)
Those in plastic cell packs; 3)
Those growing in peat pots.
Bare root plants should be
managed to prevent the roots
from drying out. If water is
needed before they are planted,
apply to the roots only, do not
wet the foliage. If plants can
not be put out immediately,
cover roots with peat moss,
sawdust or soil and keep this
material moist. Plants growing
in plastic trays should be
watered a few hours before set
ting so that the soil mix is not
too wet when the plants are
pulled from the trays. If plants
are difficult to remove from the
trays, push up on the bottom
ot each cell as the plant is pull
ed froin the compartment.
Transplants wing in peat
pots pshoulgro be watered
thoroughly to com‘fletely wet
the pot. Se:slants eep enough
to completely cover the peat
pot. It may be desirable to tear
off the upper half of the peat
pot before setting.
A fertilizer starter solution
can be applied soon after
transplanting. A homemade
starter solution can be made by
placing one pound of re&ular
garden fertilizer in five gallons
of water. Keep this solution
stirred up until most of the
material tfissolves. Pour off the
liquid and apply V 2 pint of solu
tion per plant. It is best to use
a plastic bucket to mix this
material due to the corrosive
nature of the fertilizer.
TOMATOES: TO TRAIN
OR NOT TO TRAIN
There are several ways to
train tomatoes and each
method seems to have its good
points and its bad points. The
tomato plant in its natural
state will produce an extra limb
or sucker at the base of each
main limb. It is this growth
that the home gardener will
have to make a decision about,
leave it or pinch it. Some train
ing methods and their short
comings are:
1. {anruned Plants: Un
pruned plants of both the
determinate and indeterminate
thes develop into bush plants
that are son;et.i‘xines ha:'ld to
spray properly due to dense
foliage. Unpruned plants pro-
W than prun:
!3‘ tsdbut the fruitl:: are
smaller and average weight per
fruit is less. This method re
quires less labor than other
methods.
2. One-stem Method: Every
sucker is taken off and only the
main stem is alloweg to
develog Tomatoes will be
somewhat earlier but yields of
fruit per plant is less. Much
labor is involved in pruning
plants. By using the one-stem
method, the tomato plants can
be spaced closer together so
more plants can be grown in a
smaller space. One-stem plants
are the simplest to spray. Some
research work indicates that
blossom-end rot might be
worse on severe;}' pruned
plants. Also, sunscald could be
a problem.
3. Two-Stem Method: This
method allows for the main
stem and one sucker to
develop. The first sucker,
below the first flower cluster,
is allowed to remain and then
all other suckers removed. This
method allows a little more
foliage for shade and the
tomatoes are a little larger
than the ungruned plants.
4. Once-Over Pruning: On
plants that grow as a deter
minate, suckers are allowed to
develop yp to the time that
fruit are seen on the first

Yes, now you can protect your car — as well as your home or
apartment — with “a piece of the Rock." Enjoy the same com-:
petent, quality service that helped Prudential build its reputa
tion .
When is the last time you really looked at your auto insurance
policy? Is it up-to-date? You may be paying for protection you
don't need, and you may not have enough protection against
possible serious losses.
Ask someone from the Rock to review and explain your auto in
surance, Your home insurance, too. Your Prudential agent may
be able to show you changes you can make in your insurance
to get more proteétion for the premium you now pay.
