Fishing Hnks of the Lawn Needs Fertilizer Year 'round LINCOLN Lawns turn green in the .spring, but they still need fertilizer. That's the opinion of John Furrcr, University of Nebraska Kxtension agronomist, who says a good fertilizer program is very important in lawn manage ment . Lawn grasses need fertilizer that wiii e :i c o u rage leaf growth. This means that the fertilizer .should be high in nit.'oge.i and lower in phosph orus and potash. Nebraska soils are well sup plied with potash," Furrer re ports. The individual must decide whether to apply fertili zer containing potash. Too much phosphorus may encour age clover." During the growing season, lawn grasses need a total of 5 to 7 pounds of actual nitrogen per thousand square feet. Nit rogen may be applied at three times during the year as fol lows; - 'J pounds in early spring, - 1 pound in early June, - 2 pounds in the fall. The June application should be much lightt r than those applied in spring or fall to pre vent ever stimulation of the grass during the lush growing seas'.n," Furrer points out. Gra s requires two pound; of phosphorus and one pound of potassium each year per thou sand square feet. Applications of these amounts of plant foods is optional with the home .owner. . t, Enjoy the finest ... a Gibson two-door refrigerator freezer with automatic cycle def.-osting.

Quality Ewes To Be Distributed Nebraska s h e e p producers who are incurring serious losses through use of aged ewes can obtain quality yearling ewes through the 1962 University of Nebraska Ewe Distribution pro gram. Ted Doane, Extension animal husbandman at the University, says reports indicate that aged ewes are causing serious losses to farmers in diversified farm ing area as well as to those entering the business for the first time. Through the Nebra-ka Ewe Distribution program, sheep producers can obtain Columbia type ewes which are highly de sirable a.s foundation stock to increase numbers of Nebraska flocks. Nearly all the white faced ewes will b? shipped into Nebraska from Western range areas. Doane points out. Univer sity livestock specialists will as sist in selectiing ewe for the pro gram. Persons interested in obtain ing ewes through this program should contact County Extension Agents who will forward all ap plications to the Department of Animal Husbandry at the Col lege of Agriculture, Lincoln. All applications are due in Lincoln by May 15 with delivery slated between June 15 and July 15. Producers can order as few or as many ewes as they desire. All ewes will be guaranteed free cf scabies and will be sheared. Price of the ewes is ex pected to be about the same as a year ago - lowest in several years. A partial payment of $4 per head must accompany each order. The payment will 'be de ducted from the total purchase nrice. Clarence Sehmadeke.
