CAMDEN GARDEN CLUB NOTES
(Third instalment of a-prise win

nett, of the Camden Oarden Club).
A most interesting type of manure
is “Green Manure." lliis is a cover
crop, plowed under while green, when
soft and succulent, as then the decay,
ing vegetable matter is so valuable to
the soil. The most valuable materials
used for green manures arejnembers
of the Legume family, beans, peas and
clover. There are good reasons why
these are most useful. They are the
only plants that take nitrogen from
the air and store it in the soil. On
the roots of legumes are small knots
or tubercles jrhlch are ideal placds
for bacteria, which store up in them
the nitrogen existing in the form of
gas in the air. Rye, kale, rape or tur
nips may be used for green manure,
but they simply return to the soil
what they have taken from it. Ehren
then, they are of great value to the
soil for, like manure, they bind par
ticles of sandy soils together and

RECRUITS WANTED
'or the pulpwood drmy
IN EVERY puipwood producing soc-
tion, a great civilian army is helping
to win the war. But in place of guns and
grenades, its weapons are the woods*
inan’s axe and saw. These men are a
part of the productive Home Front which
General Eisenhower said is necessary
to defeat the Nazis in 1944.
' But more volun
teers—at prevailing
pay scales —are
needed. There is
plenty of puipwood
oround here, pulp-
wood going uncut
while military needs
for puipwood products mc'«^«. The
shortage is in manpower to cut it.
Do You Know?
Over 14 of ail puipwood is used
in packaging farm products. The
packing and distribution of foods
may bo seriously dpsot this year
by a shortage of paper and boxes
made from puipwood.
How can you help?
Cutting puipwood can be a part-time or
full-time job. Perhaps you can do your
part in, your own woodlot. Perhaps you
can cut on shares in a neighbor's woods.
If you have the time
but no wood, get in
touch with this mill
and we will try to
team you up with
someone who has
wood and no way to
cut H. • '
