Visual Defects Surveys indicate that about one out of every five children gradu ating from grammar school has vis ual defects. After boys and girls leave school their eyes continue to deteriorate. At 20 years, 23 per cent of the population have visual defects, surveys indicate. At 30 years, 39 per cent have short comings in vision. At 40 years nearly half, 48 per cent, have impaired vision. From then on eyesight fails rapidly, chiefly because of the hard ening of the lens of the eye, caus ing what is known as "old sight.” At 50 years, 71 per cent have short comings in vision, and at 60 years, 82 per cent. Most persons during their 40s should have glasses to read with. Moisture Needed Fertilizers are of no value to the plant unless the soil contains ample moisture and air. Fertilizers should not be applied to dry soil; so, dur ing periods of drouth, artificial watering should be practiced. On soils known to be highly acid or de ficient in calcium this condition can be corrected by applying agri cultural ground limestone or hy drated lime at a rate of 50 to 70 pounds per 1,000 square feet. The rate of application of lime should be based on soil tests, and lime should be applied only if analysis shows it is necessary. FATS OVER TOKYO!
