MAKE PAYMENT RECORD That Pacific Northwest farmers are eager to meet their obligations to the very best of their ability is borne out by the unseasonal volume of mortgage loan payments which borrowers are making this spring, officials of the Federal Land bank of Spokane pridefully -declare, Ordinarily, the peak of loan pay ments to the bank is reached in the fall out of harvest returns. Through the past year, however, payments have held up well straight through. During the past week they spurted up to more than ssoo,ooo—getting borrowers this much closer to the time when they will own their farms free of indebtedness, which, F. 0. HUDNUTT, M.

Subscriptions Advertisements and Printing For The Nespelem Tribune May Be Left At The Nespelem Drug Store Conditions Right For Late Gardens Last of Early Vegetables Can Be Seeded Even Though Frost Danger Still Exists Washington conditions are gener ally suitable for planting the last of the early garden vegetables such as leaf lettuce, parsnips, beets, car rots, chard, early cauliflower, celery and wrinkled peas, advises Dr. John C. Snyder, State College ex tension horticulturist. Although danger from frosts still exists, these vegetables will withstand low tem pesatures unless the soil is so cold they will not germinate. As the last of the early vegetables, with the exception of wrinkied peas, have unusually small seeds, care should be taken to avoid planting them too deep. This is especially true if rainy weather is likely to follow planting. The average depth for planting ranges from one-half to three-quarters of an inch or slightly deeper in semi-arid regions. Peas usually develop a better root system if planted from two to three inches deep ang are betfer able to withstand dry conditions later. , Plant Seed Thick Variations in depth of planting, lumpy soil and other conditions of ten make it difficult to secure a good stand of the small-seeded vege tables. This can be remedied by -planting the seed thicker than ordinarily required and thinning the plants to the correct intervals after they have come up. When heavy seeding has been the rule, thinning should never be neglected or the plants will be seriously stunted and the yield greatly reduced. Most of the early vegetables should be spaced about an inch apart. Beets and carrots may be allowed to reach lead-pencil size before thinning so that those pulled out can be used in salads or other greens. Leaf lettuce can be thinned as used. As soon as the last of the early vegetables have been planted, the soil can be prepared for planting of the warm-temperature vegetables such as beans and tomatoes about the middle of May. incidentally, is the fundamental aim of this cooperative financing system. As part of the explanation for last week’s gain, Treasurer O. H. Junod points out that on May 1 the bank granted all old borrowers the privilege of meeting the interest portion -of their installments and deferring payments on the principal from May 1, 1935, until July 11, 1938. Formerly this privilege was granted, under terms of the emer gency mortgage act of 1933, only to those borrowers whose mortgages were not otherwise in default. Extend Payment “Broadening this privilege to in clude all borrowers whose loans have been closed before May 12 of this year apparently has encouraged many delinquent members to pay up their accrued interest charges,” Mr. Junod concludes. “This Land bank, being a cooperative institution which has marketed bonds to private in vestors collateraled by farm mort gages, must rely, of course, upon payments from its stockholding members to pay interest on these bonds and retire them at maturity. To preserve the integrity and ser viceability of this system, it is vit ally necessary for borrowers to meet their payments promptly when due. By meeting their installment faith fully, borrowers not only protect the equity in their farms, but shorten the time when they will become debt-free. “As an indication of the faith which private investors hold in this system, and the resulting benefits to agriculture, a new issue of 3% per cent Land bank bonds recently put on the market was heavily over supscribed, enabling the bank to close new loans at the lowest rate in its 18 years of service to North west farmers—4% per cent.” School Conclave Plans Announced Dr. Showalter Calls Educational Leaders and P-T.

THIS SEASON BEST TIME FOR WASHING BLANKETS Sunshine and warm winds -make spring an ideal time to wash blankets and restore them to their original softness and fluffiness, Miss Martha Lowery, State College ex tension clothing specialist, says. Blankets that are to be stored for the summer should not only be washed before being put away bu should be placed where moths can not reach them. Good blankets are often ruined by improper washing. Blankets should never be rubbed and soap should never be applied directly to them. Water softened with large amounts of water-softener can be equally in jurious. If a water-softener is neces sary, borax o:x ammonia are usually considered the safest. A mild soap and warm but not hot water, usual ly makes the best combination for washing. Hand washing, while more tedious than machine washing, is less likely to cause woolens to shrink and lose their softness. After the blanket has been washed in the first suds, the water should be squeezed out and the blanket washed in a second tub of suds, the same temperature as the first. Squeezing and swishing the blankets through the water will prove less injurious than rubbing or twisting. They may then be put through a loosely set wringer with as little stretching or twisting as possible. Rinse in several changes of luke warm water should follow the wash ing in the suds. After thorough rins ing, the water should be squeezed out without twisting and the blankets hung out-of-doors if the day is warm and sunny. They are best hung lengthwise on the line with one-half or one-quarter of the N Oti c eTo Cream Producers Of 1 The Nespelem Valley We have established a cream receiving station at the stage depot located at George Hemphill’s Service Station.
