BROWN Member o f Congress, Seventh Ohio District. The original plan o f the Adminis­ tration to have Congress, complete it’s work and adjourn by June 16th seems to have gone the way o f most good in­ tentions, It now appears that the con gressional session will last until at least the middle o f July and perhaps even latter. Much will depend, of' course, upon whether or not the ex­ pected war in Europe breaks within the next few weeks. Usually the country is happy to see Congress ad­ journ; but under the present condi­ tions the situation seems to be re­ versed and most citizens are hopeful that Congress will r'emain in session until the European crisis, is past. Then, too, there has been such a de­ finite demand from the country as a whole for remedial legislation that £he Administration is being forced to per­ mit congressional action on a number o f important legislative matters. For instance, the Administration originally took the position that no amendments to the Wagner Labor Relations Act would he considered at,this session of Congress. ' However, pressure from business, industry, and many labor organizations, -as' well as from the ge'neraly public, has compelled a re­ versal .of policy, and hearing will soon start on that controversial subject. Amendments to the Wages and Hours Act are also scheduled. The Social Security Act is due for an over-haul­ ing, The administration of WPA is being investigated and new legisla­ tion "for the handling of relief for the unemployed must be worked out. Changes will be made in .the Public Works Administration- laws also. Many tax measures must be re-enact­ ed and needed changes made in the tax sytem. Legislation for the relief o f the present serious railroad situa­ tion is still before Congress. But per­ haps the most controversy will center around laws relative to the United States .foreign policies, such as the ' various proposed--, neutrality laws, dozens of which have been proposed and are now awaiting consideration. So it looks as if Congress will remain in session far longer than originally expected. V DIVORCE SUITS Abandoned by their husbands, three wives have instituted divorce suits in common pleas court. Gross neglect and cruelty are charg­ ed in a petition filed by Qlive E, Carrabba against Paul E. Carrabba, whose residence is unknown to her.

COLUMBUS. — Eighty-seven well preserved Civil War veterans are al that 'remain' o f Ohio’s once massive Grand Ar.my o f the Republic. Every year since 1890 has seen a thinning out o f the ranks, but rec£ ords in the office o f State Secretary Lida S. Lucas show that the last five years have taken the heaviest toll. During 1938 the number o f Ohio G. A* R. members was reduced by more, than half and 20 posts went out o f existence when the last o f their members died. At the start o f this year there Ohio department, Since then, Miss Were 90 members in 46 posts o f the Lucas said, at least two posts have been dropped from the rolls because o f deaths. The oldest o f Ohio’s Civil War veterans, according to Miss Lucas* records, is M. B. Barrett o f Cadiz, whose 99th birthday comes on June 16, 1939. Despite his advanced years, Barrett participates in G. A. R. actitvites and plans to attend the annual state ^encampment in Columbus the week o f June 25. Barrett boasts proudly that he voted for President Abraham Lincoln in 1864. He joined the 88th O. V. I., o f the Grand Army during the Civil War, but an attack o f the measles prevented him from going into battle. . Many o f Ohio’s 44 posts have only one member, Miss Lucas said.

KICKED BY HORSE AND , SUFFERS BROKEN HAND J, E. Kyle in nursing a bruised right hand with a broken bone as a result o f being kicked by a horse on his farm*. 1' , . ' . - There are several places in the country where it has become neces­ sary to add potash to orchard soils, according to J. H. Gourley, chief of the Horticulture Department o f the Ohio Agricultural Experiment Station, No complete survey has yet been made to indicate just where sfll these areas are. Although it has not yet been recommended that potash or a com­ plete fertilizer be applied to orchards in Ohio, it would not be surprising if areas were to be found, where pot- ashas well as nitrogen would be de­ cidedly beneficial. Symptoms o f de­ ficiency o f potash are shown in foliage with burnt or scorched edges, scanty growth, poor root development, and low yields. • The Ohio Station has been studying the application ,of potash to orchards, especially the movement o f the pot- asr within the soil. It has been found that there is a large accumulation of available potassium to a depth o f at least two feet beneath trees that have been mulched with'straw or other lit­ ter. No potash whatever has been ap­ plied in these, mulched orchards, but ail o f it has accumulated from the po­ tassium that leaches out o f the mulch material. This would indicate that potash is not likely to be deficient in mulched orchards. In blocks of trees at Wooster planted adjacent to the mulched ones, potassium- is very low, although possible deficiency symp­ toms o f the trees have not yet been observed. ^ When potash is applied to the sur­ face soil it moves downward very sowly, but it has been found that, if the potash is put in at a greater depth (as has been done with a soil auger), the'potash moves both lateral­ ly and downward to a; rather remark­ able extent. That is, if the soil is continuously moist, the potassium is not fixed but is very mobile, where as if it is placed where it is alter­ nately wet and dry a considerable part goes -over into an unavailable form.
