PRESIDENT SIGNS
FRUIT FLY BILL
Measure Provides $4,250,000 to
Fight Menace to Nations
Fruit Crops.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
President Hoover yesterday signed he
measure providing $4,25O.O00 to finance
the fight against the Mediterranean
fruit fly. fight which already is being
vigorously Waged in Florida, where the
pest was first discovered.
The money made available was the
remainder of a $6000.000 emergency
appropriation made last year for the
eradication of the pink boil worm in
Texas
Officials from Louisiana, headed by
Commissioner Wilson of the State De-
partment of Agriculture, were in Wash
ington yesterday to discuss with Federal
officials steps which Louisiana might
take in assisting in control of the fly.
Mr.. Wilson reported to DR.. c. L. Mar
latt. director of the quarantine and
plant control administration. that car
load of Florida fruit, found to be host
to the fly, had been destroyed in, New
Orleans
All States adjacent to Florida have
Joined with Federal authorities to pre-
vent the spread of the fly, which, DR.
Marlatt declared, was the gravest men,
ace to the fruit and vegetable industry
that the country has so far faced. Geor-
gia is maintaining an inspection along
the borders and so are Alabama Nissis-
sippi and Louisiana. Texas authorities
have announced that they also intend
to restrict the movement of fruit from
Florida to Texas.

GARDEN ITEMS.

Prof. Watts of the Pennsylvania Agri-
cultural Experiment Station, writing in
the Market Growers Journal, suggests
that watering lightly is better means
of hardening plants than to expose to
low temperatures. But is hardening a
necessary practice in the home garden?
A well known Michigan investigator
found that hardened tomato plants
never recovered from the stunning effect
and bore malformed, poor fruits on the
early clusters as result. 1t is better
to time the sowing of seed so that the
plants may be brought along at good
growth rate and taken directly to the
open garden without undergoing a
period of enforced rest by starvation,
cold and low water supply.
A useful suggestion for handling very
small seed was given in the April /
number of Horticulture. Mix the seed
with five times its bulk of fine, dry sand
and then SOW the mixture in the row.
No covering beyond that of pressing the
seed into the soil with a fiat board or
back of the hoe is needed.
The hardy primula is an excellent
little plant that may be utilized very
successfully in many different ways in
the flower garden. 1t finds use as an
edging plant along the walks or in front
of the borders or may be planted in bed
by itself The attractive foliage stays
green all through the entire season and
in early Spring the plants are literally
bouquet of bloom Another point in
favor of the primula is the ease of

plants at most any time of the year,
preferably just after blooming.

Home gardeners who have stored their
dahlia roots in the cellar had better

removed to a cooler location if avail

of reaching this extremity. 1t will be
noticed that the buds of the dahlia do
not arise on the tubers but on the old
stem. This means that tuber by itself
is of no value for propagation, but must
have a part of the old stem attached.
In large root clumps there are always
several buds. With the aid of a strong
knife the base of the old stem may be
easily split in such way that an active
bud is left attached to each tuber Such

STATE ENDS TESTIMONY
IN WORD MURDER TRIAL

BY the Associated Press.
PANAMA CITY, Fla, May 4-The
State late last night concluded its
testimony in the trial of Mrs. Johnnie
Word, charged with the murder of her
husband. Rev. j. P. Word.
Mrs. Word, who was indicted two
months after her, husbands body was
found in the back yard of their home
here, is expected to take the witness
stand today.
The State attempted in its testimony
from Is witnesses to show that Mrs.
Word, who was some 20 years younger
than her husband, killed the minister
merely to be rid of him. The minister
was rs years old and she is SIS.
Mrs. Word told neighbors at the time
of the killing that her husband had
killed himself. Attorneys would not
say whether she will declare it was an
accident or suicide.
