 | Radio fans will listen in to more baseball games this year than ever | before.
 A survey taken by NEA service for the Herald, reveals that most of the teams in the American and Ma tional leagues will have their home games reported by radio. In the smaller leagues, however, such as the American association, Southern association, the International and the Texas leagues, opposition to such broadcasting still persists and chances of reporting their games by radio arc remote.

WOOD WRITES 0F
 COMMUNIST PLANS
Claims SoYiets Only Seek to
 FOment Labor Trouble

New York, March 24 (UP) - A direct connection between Soviet leaders and the communists who have created labor troubles in yari- ous industries of this nation is all leged by Charles G. Wood, United States commission of conciliation, in a book, Reds and Lost Wages" |" soon to be published.
 Wood declares he was assigned to find 8 way to check an alien enemy movement" when com- munists began to invade all types of American factories and cause un- employment by leading the workers into futile strikes.
 The commissioner describes in detail the case of a section of the shoe industry in New York and Brooklyn which, he says, was in vaded by a group of Reds" led by "an avowed enemy of the govern ment." A form of contract which provided that none but communists be given employment was imposed on the manufacturers, Wood re- lates, but later was oyerthrown in the courts.

helped by legislation providing a
shorter working week, and asked
the engineers to aid in solving the
problem.

only a small amount OF water directly
on the rows will also be a great help.
I'm many localities dry weather has
practically ended the usefulness of
Summer gardens, at least for the time

from which they may be expected to
recover.
"It must be remembered, the horti-

ORIGIN OF PLANTS

With such vast numbers Of families
OF plants in the world, it Is really as
founding how few really important food
plants have been developed by man
and, strange enough, that these are
mostly included in few closely related
groups. The grass family has furnished
our cereals, wheat, corn, barley, rye
and oats; the night shade family the
white potato, tomato, pepper and egg
plant; the mustard family the radish,
cabbage, cauliflower, kale, turnip, Brus-
sells sprouts and rutabaga; the legume
family the peas, beans and peanut;
the gourd family the squash, musk
melon, watermelon and cucumber, and
the rose family about all the important
North Temperate fruits, such as apple,
pear, plum, peach, raspberry and straw
berry.
The history Of the development Of
food plants is mostly lost in the past,
but would certainly be a wonderfully
interesting story If it could be revealed.
How certain plants were selected for
use and gradually through the years
brought into their present forms would
be an interesting story, the facts of
which are In some instances more or
less conjectured, but will never be
known. It Is quite probable that other
plants might have been developed into
food sources. The types of food plants
might easily be very different from
those we now have II the early people
had started with other classes of plants.

THE HOME GARDENER

W

that there Is moisture available, which
Is usually the case in September. Cen
orally speaking, lawn grasses are n1ucn
like the Winter cereals, wheat and rye,
in their cultural requirements. In the
cool days of Autumn the grass makes
strong root growth, putting the plants
In strategic position for strong top
growth in early Spring. Too often In
preparing the lawn the soil Is simply
graded as desired, raked free OF stones
and clods, and seeded. Better prepara-
ton will be abundantly worth while.
II stiff clay subsoil has been as
tributed over the surface by the work
men who built the cellar 1t VIII pay TO
cover this with q few inches OF good
top soil or, If this Is not practical, to
work ground bone or other good ferti-
lizer into the top five or six inches All
depressions should be carefully filled
that there may be no catch basins for
surface water. L. S. Dickinson, in his
little book entitled 1.-THE Lawn" rec
ommends superphosphate at the rate Of
16 pounds per 1000 square feet as a
pre-seeding treatment for the lawn.
Dickinson goes on to recommend the
use of good, clean grass seed and sug-
gests that it is better to purchase pure
varieties and mix them at home II one
has important sowings to make. A quiet
day Is required for sowing grass seed
because of its light weight, and Dickin-
son suggests dividing the quantity Of
seed into four lots, going over the en-
tire area four times, each time in diff
ferent direction, thus inSuring an even
distribution. Raking lightly and rolling
complete the operation.
