Zurich Citizens News, 1974-07-17, Page 6PAGE 6 ZURICH CITIZENS NEWS THURSDAY, JULY 17, 1974 News of Dashwood Mrs. Aaron Restemayer had the misfortune to fall from a ladder fracturing her right arm. Mr. and Mrs. Jack Cudmore, Willowdale, spent the weekend Watch rot "Whether you are growing staked, pole, field or cherry tomatoes, all can suffer from blossom -end rot, " says J,K. Hughes, a horticulturist with the Ontario Ministry of Agric- ulture and Food. The disease is usually related to a deficiency of calcium and/ or water stress from lack of soil water. Fruit becomes mis- shapen and black, dead areas develop near the blossom end, opposite to where it joins the plant. Application of a fertilizer such as calcium nitrate and gypsum willhelp supply suffic- ient calcium to the plants. If water stress is the cause, frequent watering early in the mroning is necessary. Mr. Hughes cautions against water- ing tomatoes in the evening. "Early -morning watering will give the plants time to dry off, and lessen the chance of botry- tis fruit rot developing." To help maintain uniform soil moisture, a mulch such as straw, grass clippings or thin black plastic may be added around the plants. Close, deep cultivation late in the season should be avoided. Steer This Way BY LARRY SNIDER Insects are a real threat to summer driving. Not only windshields, but headlights and front grill should be check- ed and cleaned regularly. Bug buildup on grill interferes with cooling air flow, hurts perfor- mance. Clutch slippage, in a manual - transmission car, may develop if owner has a habit of resting his left foot on clutch while driving, or if pedal adjustment has been neglected. Excessive wear in center of tire tread usually indicates tire was overinflated. Remove luggage rack when y ou're not using it. Adds to car's wind resistance, adds strain to engine, adds to your gas bill. The alternator should be checked every 5,000 miles, more often if car spends a lot of time on dusty dirt roads.
