Garden Contest Winners Soon

Prize winners in the Oakland Yard
and Garden contest will be announced

member of the Oakland Civic Club,

longer, and states that the interest
shown, and the improvements made
are very Encouraging to all home
people.
The committee has been handicap
ped on account of sickness and other

Shrubs for Spring Beauty to be
Planted This Fall

There are many reasons for setting
out shrubs in the fall instead of wait
ing until spring, according to Mrs. A.
L. Lee, chairman of the local Yard
and Garden Contest Committee. The
one reason, however, that is most con-
vincing-the one that changes fanci-
full musing to eager activity-is the
pleasant anticipation of the pictur-
esque garden that will be yours next
year.
Shrubs are the backbone of the
planting so give them first considera-
ton when you plan the development
of your outdoor living room.
Can you imagine spring coming and
going without Lilacs to cast their spell
over your garden? If you haven't
several kinds of this gracious old
friend, plant them now. The Lilac
(Syringa) season is all too short, but
by proper selection of varieties you
can extend their blooming period
several weeks.
Most familiar of all is the ever
popular Syringa vulgaris with its
lovely clusters of sweet scented purple
flowers. Syringa vulgaris alba is a
sister variety that grows slende~ly
upright and has blooms of white in
stead of purple.
Closely following are the Chinese
and Persian varieties. Syringa persica
and Syringa chinensis( the latter is
also. known as Syringa rothomagensis,
and Rouen Lilac) both have unusual
ly large plumes of exquisite perfumed
blossoms.
Syringal villosa is later Towering
type, as well as Syringa josikaea,
which forms large bush with rather
small, family scented blooms of hello
trope color.
The common Lilac is perfectly
hardy and does well under the most
unfavorable conditions. Of course, If
it is given plenty of sun and it is
planted in good soil it shows its ap-
probation with increased beauty. The
other varieties, however, need a bet
ter soil in order to make successful
start, and they like an occasional
feeding of bone meal or manure.
Another shrub that will be charm
ing feature in your planting is the
Flowering Almond. Like the Lilacs,
the Flowering Almond is also very
hardy and forms very pretty dwarf
bush. Early in the spring, even be-
fore the leaves have dared to venture
forth, the brave little flowers join the
spring symphony of color. The bios
SONS put one in mind of roses, except
that they are smaller and snuggle
close to the branches. ~"
Flowering Almonds can be had with
either delicate pink or pretty white
flowers, and for early bloom in the
shrub border, you will find it especial
1y valuable.
A shrub that will add still another
color to the border is Golden Bell
(Forsythia). Its flowers also. appear
before the leaves, and their sunshiny
golden color seems to light up the
whole garden. The earliest blooming
member of the family is Forsythia
intermedia. Forsythia suspense has
long, slender, trailing branches and is
adapted to foreground filling, while
the tallest grower (Forsythia for
tunei) makes an excellent tall hedge.
Surely the longing for an abundance
of spring loneliness in the garden is
reason enough to plant some of these

BONDS ARE STRONG
IN HEAVY TRADING
Forced Liquidation Dries Up
as Stock List Shows
Advance.
BY F. II. RICHARDSON.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, october Apart from
the foreign list, which was still subject
to considerable nervous selling, and
some secondary domestic rail issues,
bonds had a strong tendency today for
the first time this week.
The early strength of stocks dried
up most of the forced liquidation and
large part of the selling from over
seas ceased with the stronger tone
in London and Berlin. Money rates
were unchanged Volume was again
OF record proportions.
Two features were apparent at the
opening. Fivst, there was quite stable
buying of high-grade public utilities,
such as American Telephone 51Rs, Du-
queSne Light AIS, Philadelphia Co.
5s, Columbia Gas SIS, Utah Power g.
Light IS and Utilities Power & Light
512S. These all advanced fractionally.
Secondly. it was evident that the wide
declines in the earnings of most rail-
roads had turned sentiment against
carrier bonds. Even those of good
grade, SUCH as Canadian National SIS.
Canadian Pacific As. Frisco "A" As and
Great Northern rs. were off slightly.
In the second rail group declines were
wide, as large blocks of bonds we're
onered at losses ranging from | to Az
points. The chief sufferers were the
descriptions of Florida roads. Seaboard
Airline 6s were off AZ points to a new
low. Seaboard All Florida IA" IS
dropped 2 points. Florida East Coast
5s were at new low. Losses were also
shown by Chicago & Eastern Illinois
5s, Chicago Great Western As, Denver
q Rio Grande Western SIS, Erie General
Lien As, Frisco AIS and Wabash 411s.
Though the general tone of foreign
dollar credits was downward, there
were enough gains to indicate the turn
ing of the current movement. Indi-
vidual features included wide advance
Dominican Republic Bonds, the first
5z2s gaining 54 points. Italian issues,
after weak start, turned upward
japanese bonds showed strength.
German Government lbs early made
new low, but later retraced the lost
ground. German Central Agricultural
Bank IS 1939) were of a point. Ber-
lin 61as lost 2 points and there were
smaller losses in United Steel Works
612s, Bavaria 612s and Cologne 6Ibs
German Preparations rs, however, made
small improvement. French issues
were lower and Argentine Bonds were
about 3 to 4 points below their recent
levels.

In discussing the worldwide business

Business in this country is about IA
per cent of in contrast with a As per

Senator said. With basic elements OF
American production upon a sound
foundation, our recovery should not be
long delayed. In a former depression
over 1000 strikes we're recorded. in
yolving bitter warfare between worker

CUT IN VIRGINIA
CORN CROP SEEN
Reserve Bank Also Notes
Drop in Other Yields Due
to Drought.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
RICHMOND, Va, October l.-Vir-
ginia's corn crop today was forecast to
be l6,607,000 bushels, compared with
the forecast of 2l,518,000 bushels as of
August and yield of 44,13S, 900 last
year, by the Fifth District Federal Re-
serve Bank monthly review that re-
ported Virginia crops declined 3S per
cent during August following the rec
ord drop of 25.2 in July
The drop in all crops, the review said,
was attributed to the drought which
has continued since early Summer.
The review figures showed that oats
turned out better than had been ex-
pected. with yield forecast of STA
coo bushels.
Potato Crop Smaller.
A decline of IA per cent was noted In
the late potato crop since the LIST of
August. The total production of pota-
toes, including the early crop, was ex-
pected by district officials to be is pa
600 bushels, compared with 17,46l 900
bushels in 1929.
Shipments of early potatoes to Sep
TENDER l amounted to 81 ,345 cars. COM
pared with 21,05l cars shipped to the
same date last year. The Virginia
sweet potato crop declined during Au-
gust, and on September l was forecast
to be 100000 bushels, compared with
4,600,000 forecast a month earlier and
yield last year of 6,705, 900 bushels.
Hay fields declined further in condi-
ton during August, the Review said.
and crop of only $4,000 tons was ex-
pected, compared with 13730O0 tons
cut in 1929. Pastures in all sections of
the State except in the Southwest
showed heavy declines, the Review said,
and on September l were % per cent
normal.
Peanut Prospects Declining.
Peanut prospects were set forth as de-
clining about 81 per cent during Au-
gust and on September / was forecast
as 117600,000 pounds, compared with
146.080,000 pounds harvested last year
The commercial apple crop in Vir~
ginia was forecast to be 100000 bare
rels, compared with 100000 barrel
gathered in 1929. The fruit, while con.
Siderably under size, was said to be
good, both as to quality and color.
There was very little damage from
insects, but in many sections the drop
was heavy.
Outlook In Maryland.
Compared with the total Virginia
crop drop of 20 per cent, the Review
gave Maryland prospects as declining
an average of 86 per cent in August,
with the composite condition on Sep.
TENDER / at TAI.
| In West Virginia the crop condition
! figures on September / averaged 57.6
per cent of the 10-year figure, the sec.

changed in average condition during
August the composite condition of 94.3
per cent on September / being the same

FL0UT ORIENTAL
 AZTEC THEORIES
AnthropoloeisS Not Convinced
 by Chinese Faces on UrnS

Washington, Oct. R - Any link between ancient Aztec civiliza- tion and that of old China and old Egypt yesterday was, pronounced utterly without archaeological foundation" by anthropologists of the national museum.
 An account of G. Ryden, arch aeologist, now displaying in Los Angeles 26 newly-unearthed 2500 B.. C., Aztec funeral urns decorated with many purely Chinese in char acter and other strongly resembling ancient Egyptian sculpture and pot tery'' failed to convince pr. A. Hrd- licka and Dr. Neil Judd.
 "A century of painstaking arch-- geological study of Latin America las revealed nothing to support the theory of Chinese and Egyptian in- fluence," Judd said.
 Nor did he place credence in a theory that the early Malays may have migrated via island groups to the South American shore, result ing in small tribe of bearded Bo- livian Indians.
 Officials of the National Geo. graphic society pointed out that the strange stone images of Easter island. 2.OOo miles off-shore from Bolivia, had been used to bolster up the Malay theory of an early Asiatic influence on America.
 But the Smithsonian scientists emphatically said the only theory of Asiatic origin in early America which may hold Is the Alaskan, where only a few miles divided the continents. And even that is shap- ing very slowly, very laboriously.
 Like paving a road that hither- to was an indistinct rough path" was the smile of the learned Dr. Hrdlicka.
 He was, at that moment, un- packing. arranging his most pre- cious archaeological find of an Alas kan summer spent in this very quest-1O0 of the oldest American skeletons of that oldest of all Amer ican regions.

As the first step in the campaign, the conduct committee called sev- eral brokers before it and questioned them at length regarding recent operations.
 The penalty for trading operations which have the effect of demoraliz- ing the market ordinarily :s suspen- sion of membership, although the exchange authorities have the pow CT to order expulsion.
 The reaction of the market yester- day when 50 representative securi- ties showed net loss of 5.74 points, was not blamed on immediate short selling as much as on the after effect of the campaign which has been waged by the bear party for several weeks.
 Warned On False Rumors
 Recently stock exchange officials warned members against dissemina- ton of false rumors calculated to in- duce needless liquidation. Member firms were called upon to furnish the business conduct committee with copies of all correspondence which may have gone over their private wires bringing into question the financial condition of any firm or other unwarranted rumors.

SEEK NEW PLAYERS
 FOR RAMS ELEVEN
Poitis Negotiating for Former
 FOrdham Football Men

Manager Al Politis is negotiating with two former Fordham Uniyer- sity stars and if he is successful they will be in the uniform of the New Britain Rams when that team plays the New Haven Triangle Pros III the Elm City eastern league park next Sunday.
 The to loss was not the only beating the New Britain Rams took Sunday. The gate receipts showed a loss of approximately $500. The crowd was small and three-quarters of 1t was made up of large group of loyal fans from Thomaston. New Britain fans were sitting by the ra- dio Sunday or were on Church street watching the Herald playo- graph in action.
 Politis Is not discouraged over his teams failure Sunday. He hopes to obtain enough finances on the road trips to engage good attraction within a week or two. There are many teams about the state which NoQlo pC "llIllS lO COlllC lO lllio city abut they are not of the best calioSA and rather than book a set up, the New Britain manager would rather play out of town, he says.
 Bridgeport has a professional team and negotiations are already under way to engage in series with the team of that city.
 Two players upon whom Politis figured for last Sundays game were not available. Red" Matulis was injured and George (Battler) Mur- tha. former Red and Gold captain, will not be allowed to play because of his duties as a practice teacher in the Senior High school. Roger Scully had an injured leg and should not have played, 1t was learn ed after the game.
 Vic Radzewich, hero in defeat last Sunday. was not figured upon until Sunday morning when he came to the practice session and asked to be put in the lineup. He was not acquainted with the teams play and signals but he managed to pull down several passes for good gains.
