Fall-Out Tests Made

Radioactive fall-out from H

suburban Prince Georges and
Montgomery Counties.
For several months, the State
Department of Health, coop

run bi weekly tests for radio
activity in raw water impound

Brighton and Rocky Gorge on
the Patuxent River. All tests
have given the Commission

The two Patuxent reservoirs

money to improve entrances of both streets
where they join Rockville Pike.

Rockville Pike.
Woodrow W. Steverson, asso
ciation president, said plans are
to build a 32-feet long, concave
brick wall five feet high paral
leling the Pike front the South
side of existing Ritchie pkwy.
When Ritchie pkwy. finally is
dualized, the wall, made of used
brick, will separate the two
lanes. The name of the commu

direct attack on the metro
politan area. Civil Defense ex
perts state that an H-bomb
could be expected to destroy
much of the water system by
blast and heat and pollute open
reservoirs by radiation.
The best advice for those sub
urbanites who would hope to
survive an attack, the WSSC
spokesman slated, probably is
contained in a newly published
Federal Office of Civil and De
fense Mobilization pamphlet,
which advises citizens to stock
pile a two-week supply of water
(“a minimum of seven gallons
a person”) in a protected area.
The OCDM also recommends
that a home shelter area be
provided with a 20-gallon can
for garbage and a 10-gallon can
for human wastes, since refuse
collection and sewer services
probably also would be Inter

Steverson said Donald E. Gin
gery, developer of Hungerford
Towne. has agreed to supply the
labor to build the wall if the As
sociation provides the materials.
Other projects will be plant
ing of 20-feet high maple trees
along both sides of Mt. Vernon,
one block deep from the pike.
Two brick gateposts will flank
the entrance of Mt. Vernon pi.
Work should start on the wall
and gateposts next month with
tree planting to follow, Stever
son said.

Sometime nature is too boun
tiful. For instance, sometimes
fruit sets on so thick that it
breaks the limbs. And then the
tree is crippled. If this is hap
pening to your trees, you’d bet
ter thin out some of the crowd
ed fruits rather than run the
risk of breaking your tree. You
will help both tree and fruit.
Disbudding perennials like
dahlia and chrysanthemum will
produce bigger, better blooms.
It’s just another form of thin
ning, and disbudding is the prac
tice that produces those huge
“flower show’’ specimens.
Earlier in the season, you’ll
remember that we told you how
you could increase the number
of blooms by pinching back the
stems. This forced some more of
the side branches to develop, and
this in turn produced more buds.
If you let them go, you’ll have
lots of flowers, but they’ll be
small. If you now remove the
side buds tall you need to do
is pinch off the bud after it has
formed) you’ll have fewer
blooms, but since the strength

check these lawn mowing haz
ards. How do you rate?
Do you police the yard of
toys, tools, sticks and stones be
fore you start? A rotary mower
can make a mess of most any
object it hits. What’s worse, a
broken piece of blade is dan
gerous as shrapnel.
Do you mow in your bare
feet? You’re asking for trouble
if you do. Keep your shoes on.
You can take them off after
you’re done.
Do you have control of your
mower at all times? Don’t let it
pull you, if it’s self-propelled.
And if you have to leave tt for
even a few seconds, shut it off.
If you’re teaching Junior to
mow, make sure he knows how
to stop the mower as well as
start it.
Do you mow with people
around? It's not only impolite—
it’s dangerous! That's worse yet!
