Plant Shrubs to Produce
Forest Like Effect Urged

time of planting to conform and
balance with the root system. In
planting shrubs the arrangements
should be so that there is something
blooming on your place through TIE
entire season.
Patchwork Spells Effect
Rules for planting shrubs:
Group the varieties. Unless alb
solutely necessary do not use less
than five Of any one variety, thus
avoiding a patchwork of color.
Carefully avoid planting of any
shrub that will break up open ex-
panSe of lawn. Screen out all OBJ
jectionable objects.
Avoid monotony by choosing
plants of varying heights, foliage
and habit of growth. Avoid cover
ing of foundation with all growing
types. Endeavor to arrange group
ings SO that they will harmonic
with one another.
1T is best to prepare the entire
area, cultivating the ground thor
oughly to remove foreign sub
stances. Good soil should be packed
around the roots, the tops being re-
duced materially at planting time, "
Morgan said.
BE sure to get good specimens
and mulch well with we'll rotted
manure. Keep well wetered first
season."
Plants should be "healed in" and
watered if they are not to be
planted at once.

OHIO LABOR is
LINING FORCES
AGAINST WILLIS
Record as Governor, Stand
in Senate, Reasons for
Opposition.
BIZ Times SnccinL

By Times Special
WASHINGTON, March 16.-Or-
ganized labor in Ohio is setting
about quietly to defeat the ambitions
of Senator Willis, outstanding po-
litical fact of the week in the realm
of organized labor.
According to reliable information
here, the Ohio labor organizations
have taken no official action, but are
conducting a quiet fight on Willis.
Labor officials here have made no
official announcement regarding the
Ohio situation, and labor officials
either profess to know nothing of
the development, or decline to be
quoted.
Out After Opponent
The reason for this is believed to
be that Ohio labor is not openly out
for Hoover in the Republican COL
umn. but is contenting itself with
getting rid of an opponent.
But whatever the explanation, the
word is going down the line in Ohio
to defeat Willis" Hostility shown
to labor by Willis while he was
Governor and his stand on labor
measures in the Senate are privately
given as the reasons for opposition
Records of Ohio labor show that
Willis tried while Governor to de-
stroy the workmen's compensation
machinery of the state and that he
obtained a ruling from his attorney
general which permitted private in
surance companies to enter the State
writing compensation insurance in
competition with the State fund.
Appointments Disliked
This gave James M. Cox one of his
leading issues in his first campaign
for the governorShip, his pledge hav~
ing been to restore the exclusive
State fund
Willis, while Governor, is said also
to have made number of appoint
ments opposed by labor, principally
on the industrial commission.

Arrangements of shrubs and
shade trees is a perplexing problem
for the average planter, says Assist
ant Park Superintendent George
Morgan.
Nothing could look more unnat-
ural than shade trees placed in a
row. Such arrangement will not
produce the forest like effect that
is so desired. A few simple rules
aid in securing satisfactory results, +"
said Morgan.
Here are few rules for trees:
Plant wherever you think it will
serve desired purpose.
Do not place trees directly in
front of the house, as This obstructS
the view from within and places
the house from a disadvantage from
without.
Frame the view toward the house,
adding prominence and beauty to
the dwelling.
Group the varieties.
Plant Away From House
Place the heaviest paintings to-
ward the outer portions of your
plan SO that they will appear re-
lated to the shrubbery paintings.
Do not place trees too near the
house.
Plant so that every portion of the
lot secures shade part of the day
and on the other hand so every
portion receives sunlight.
"a practical way to work out the
above suggestions is to place stakes
to represent trees, moving them
around until the arrangement de-
sired is secured, keeping in mind
that they are the most important
part of your planting and the most
difficult to change if not correct, +"
Morgan said.
Avoid Soft Wood
"Avoid planting soft wooded va
rietieS as they are short lived" ad-
vised Morgan.
soft types are a source of worry
when they reach maturity because
of their lack of resistance to heavy
winds. Insist on good specimens,
with heavy tibrous root system free
from insects and disease.
I'm planting dig the hole of suf-
ficient size to accommodate the root
system. Before placing in hole
prune off all mutilated ends and
broken parts. Plant about one inch
deeper than the trees stood in the
nursery row.
Air Pockets Dangerous
Fill with good soil until two
thirds full and water we'll Do not
mound up dirt around them.
In planting be sure that dirt is
we'll packed around roots and under
crown of plant, leaving no air
pockets, thus preventing drying out
of roots after the plant is placed
in the soil.
