Suggestions On
Fall-Winter
Fertilization
Phosphorus and potassium
can be applied well ahead of
i planting with little reduction in
J availability, advises Dr. C. D.
I Welch, Extension soil chemist
at Texas A&M University.
Fhosphorus in fertilizers is
soon converted to new forms In
the soil and does nut move
unless the soil is disturbed by
plowing or disking, says Welch.
Potassium, he adds, is also held
by soil particles and does not
move except in sandy soils low
in clay and organic matter.
Therefore, such soils would be
exception for potassium appli-
cation too far In advance of
planting time, explains the
chemist.
The big question about fall
and winter fertilization con-
cerns nitrogen. Welch says
losses and reduced availability
of nitrogen will vary with soil
properties, temperature and
moisture conditions.
Ammonium nitrogen, he says,
is held by day particles and
generally remains near where it
Is placed In the soil. Therefore,
nitrogen in the ammonium
form should be used but not
until soil temperature Is down
to 50-55 degrees F. When the
I soil temperature Is above the
20-55 degree range, soil bac-
| teria convert ammonium to
nitrates at an accelerated rate
j and losses cm,Id occur, says
j Welch.
Nitrates are mobile and move
with soil water. This means they
can leach from a very sandy
soil in areas of heavy winter
rainfall. Still another possible
loss is through denitrification.
This takes place, he says, in
soils that stay extremely wet
for long periods of time.
As for the best acceptable
dates for making fall and winter
application of nitrogen. Welch
says it varies with the different
regions of Texas. Each set of
roil and management conditions
needs to be evaluated. One
practical approach, he said,
would be to apply phosphorus
or phosphorus and potassium if
needed early, than the nitrogen
later, close to planting time.
But, he concludes, a reliable
soil test will help when the de-
cision is being made on what is
needed. Local county agents can
supply detailed information on
soil testing.
JS|L
He has clothed me with th«
garments of salvation.
—(Isa. 61:10).
As we turn to God in prayer,
we lay aside all tension,
stress or strain as though
they were old garments. Let
them slip from our shoulders
and fall away. Then we can
create a prayer of release and
freedom. Let us move through
every part of the day clothed
in the mantle of God’s love,
peace and light. With Him we
can handle in a calm, serene
way, all that needs our atten-
tion. We carry with us an at-
mosphere of peace.

Campus Uprisings
Disrupt Learning
If knowledgeable forecasters
prove correct, campus uprisings
of one sort or another, and in
varying degrees of violence, wdl
continue to disrupt the pursuit
of learning, the art of teaching
and the business of administer-
j lion at colleges and universities
across the country.
Who are the student protes-
ters, and what do they want?
To oversimplify the situation,
there are really two general
types. The most vocal and mili-
tant groups, such as the Stu-
dents for a Democratic Society,
simply want to destroy the
present system by violence so
they can set about building a
new one. Some who follow this
line simply want power, and
others believe that destructive
activism or anarchy is the best
way to a better world. This is
a very old-fashioned type of
student thinking. It is hopeless-
ly out of date considering the
state of government and society
in the United States today,
where there are manifold pro-
tections for human rights nnd
broad avenues of approach for
social and economic progress.
The second group of protes-
tors include the vast majority of
students who are concerned
about the world around them
and want to actively take part
in helping right the wrongs and
injustices that exist in it. They
are worked up about the right-
ness or wrongness of making
war, in general and in Viet Nam
in particular, about cafeteria
food, about having a larger
voice in college administration
and choice of courses, college
rmtrrugeRTFTitr about civil rights,
about government becoming
more responsive to the popular
will and about ail the things
that they think need righting
in the world. These protesters
some from every type of back-
grounds, including “the best
families.”
An article in The National
Philosopher Says Worldwide Control
Of Weather Is Fine, to a Certain Point
Editor’s note: The Philosoph-
er on his Johnson grass farm on
Aquilla Creek apparently has
discovered winter’s coming,
Dear editar:
I was in town the other day
to pick up another ten-cent
bolt for a quarter and as I was
finishing the transaction the
store owner asked, “Well, how’s
the weather out your way? Need
a rain?”
“Yeah,” I whispered, looking
around to see who else was in
the store, “I could use a little
rain.”
“What’re you WHISPERING
ABOUT?” he asked. "You eith-
er need a rain or you don’t!”
The whole store could hear him,
and X got my bolt and cleared
out.
What he doesn't understand
is that among farmers the
weather is a delicate subject
and it's considered highly un-
neighborly, not to say rude, to
hope for a rain outloud when
some people around you haven’t
got their crops out yet. Speak
not of rain in the house of those
who still have hay on the
ground.
It’s not that anybody thinks
hoping has any effect, but it’s
as risky as denouncing any re-
ligious denomination when you
are in a cafe and don't know
what denomination the people
at the next table belong to.
After I got home I opened
up the newspaper I had hauled
off and bought when I was in
town, if the price of newspapers
was as inflated as tractor bolts
and warfare they’d cost a dol-
lar instead of a dime, and imme-
diately ran into an article on
weather control.
According to it, scientists are
working on eventual worldwide
control of the elements. Some
day, it claimed, man will be
able to decide when it’ll rain,
when the sun will shine, where
we need snow and how much;
will be able to eliminate torna-
does and hurricanes and will
never have a ball game called
off on account of rain.
In fact, it said, the whole
world will be air-conditioned,
winter and summer.
This will be fine, until some
day in the dead of winter
when everybody has thrown his
blankets away, has his windows
open and is running around in
his shirtsleeves . . . the elec-
tricity goes off.
Personally I intend to keep
a supply of firewood on hand,
if I can get somebody to saw I
it for me.
Yours faithfully, !
J. A.
Observer points out that one
reason the student values today
are different than they used to
be is that . . the parents,
having struggled through the
Great Depression to create an
affluent society for their chil-
dren, have not only made it
possible for them to think about
other things, but have made it
almost impossible for them to
even understand what poverty,
or the fear of it, is.”
In a U S. News and World Re-
port interview, Dr. Glenn S.
Dumke, chancellor of Califor-
nia’s state college system, speaks
of the future of student vio-
lence. He expresses the view
that the time is very near when
an “outraged citizenry” will de-
mand that campus violence be
ended. Both students and fa-
culty may find sharp changes
being Imposed from outside the
academic community — changes
involving such things as elimi-
nation of courses that cause
controversy or problems, sum-
mary expulsion of students
causing trouble and loss of ten-
ure for professors encouraging
dissent. As Dr. Dumke puts it.
the academic community, facul-
ty and administrators have to
face up to the question of
whether the campus should be
used “as a staging area for vio-
lent social change or revolution
. . . And if it is not, how is aca-
demic freedom to be preserved?
Few in the academic community
have been willing to confront
this question . . . We’re going to
lose academic freedom unless
we are willing to think, through
the colleges’ proper role in re-
lation to society.”
It is unquestionably true that
the vast majority of people
connected with the nation's
colleges and universities — stu-
dents, faculty and administra-
tors alike — want to preserve
and strengthen our institutions
of higher learning, in an atmos-
phere of academic freedom and
with dedication to the mission
of raising man’s understanding,
accomplishments and aspira-
tions. If the majority is to
achieve this purpose, there iff
much to support the view that
this same majority must soori
come up with some answers and
some action of its own to control
campus violence and take the
appeal out of it by ousting hard-
core anarchists and revolution-
aries, meeting the legitimate
needs of students and channel-
ing the idealism, activism and
energies of inquiring minds ton
ward constructive purposes.

One wit claims that an
angler’s stature in the fishing
world is measured by h'1
mouth as well as his ability
to iish.
In other words, if you're j
going to tell iish stories, you’d
bolter talk lik * a llsheiumn, j
To foster improved rela-
tions between novices and old
hands, the folks at Mercury'
out hoards have come up with
a few suggestions that will
get any beginner oli to a
good start.
Certain words always ruffle#
the leathers of the pro. Role -
heads the top of the Just.
Poles are .something you
would fly flags from or push
a boat with. Except for the
cane variety, which is an
unmentionable in some quar-
ters. poles have nothing to
do with fishing. Substitute rod
and you're safe.
Fi ji r.mu.h, strike, bunt or
hil u plug, but never bite it.
Bites and nibbles immediately
reflect the use of bait —
never recommended when
spinning a yarn.
Call your outboard iig her. 1
It's the only other gal in the •
lives of men to which v.'ives
seldom object.
Use local fish names only.
A speckled trout in Florida
is considerably different than
a spec in Ontario. A lake
trout becomes a mackinaw in
the west, and a togue in the
northeast. And you’d better
call bream “brim’’ or be de*
nounccd as a carpetbagger.
So choose your words with
care, advise the lads at Mer-
cury outboards. You may not
be able to make ether fisher-
men believe you, but at least
you can hold their attention.
