TRUCK STOLEN
BY HIJACKERS; ]
KIDNAP DRIVER
Gunner Believed Looking
for Medicinal Whisky;
Cargo Is CigaretS.

HijackerS believed looking for a
shipment of medicinal whisky en-
route from Louisville to Indianapo-
lis, stole a truck tractor and large
trailer early today after KIDNAPPING
the driver. Earl Deatline. 80. Of 1922
BelefOntaine street. an employe OF
the Globe Carriage Company. 1900
Kentucky avenue.
Charles Riddle. vice-preSident of
the company. says the truck was not
carrying liquor, and his firm has
handled none since the movement
Of medicinal whisky was started. He
believes the load was cigarets.
Deatline asserted he did not
know what made up the load. which
was placed on the truck at Louis
vile.
In a statement to police. Deaf
line said he was driving on Road
so. between Seymour and Mt. YER
non, when a large black automobile
occupied by three men drew along
side, and one of the men showing
a revolver through a lowered win
dow, forced Deatline to halt
Sought Whisky in Truck
The driver left the truck and en-
tered the sedan, and the man with
the revolver took the wheel of the
truck. Deatline was blindfolded
and forced to lie on the floor of the
automobile Both machines were
driven nOrthWard.
His captors asked him what was
in the truck. Deatline responded
that he did not know, as the load
was placed on the truck at Louis
vile and drivers seldom see the
loading.

Shortly afterWard other men APP
peared, Deatline said and he beard
one of the newcomers say:
We've got the wrong truck. Go
ahead and I'll get another one"
Search Made for Truck
About 2:30 this morning, Deatline
was released from the automobile
nine miles south of Indianapolis and
a mile west of the old Shelbyyille
pike. He was told:
You will find the truck about a
mile and a half west of Road so, be-
tween Seymour and Mt. Vernon"
Deatline went to a farm house and
te1annOOed Riddle tho nous Of the
robbery. Riddle brought the driver
to Indianapolis and started a search
for the truck, which, so far, has been
fruitleSS.
Riddle said drivers for his COM
pany had had considerable trouble
with hijackers in the vicinity of East
St. Louis, Ill, seeking loads of Gig
arets, but no difficulty of that kind
had been experienced in Indiana.

DEPUTY SHERIFF GOES
AFTER OWN HUSBAND
And Her Warrant Reads Failure to
Support His Wife.

By JHitCd Press
GARY, Ind, April deputy
Sheriff Irene Rennoe set out Friday
night for Cheyenne, Wyo., to bring
back a prisoner.
The prisoner she went after was
of all persons, William Rennoe. hel
husband.
And the warrant, which she car
ried for his arrest charges, OF all
things, was that he failed to support
his wife.
The odd situation came about
when Mrs Rennoe procured the
warrant, then learned she would
have to pay the expenses of sending
a deputy after her husband.
She was unable to do this, so was
sworn in as deputy and departed
on the trip in her own automobile.

ROSE CLASSIFICATION

The rose is one of the oldest of the
Rarden ornamentals and has been
greatly modified by the introduction
and cross breeding Of new species,
creating a confusing number of types
and forms Prof c. H. Connors of the
New Jersey Agricultural Experiment
Station in Circular 25l. Roses in the
important groups much as follows:
Hybrid perpetuals are the old-fasn-
toned June blooming bush roses, which.
because of their extreme hardness. can
be grown in very cold regions. As a
Tule they are not grown extensively in
this region because the monthly bloom
ers are preferred However. Washing
ton growers are well acquainted with
FRAU Karl Druschki, Gen. Jacquemi-
not and certain others.
The hybrid teas. represented by such
sturdy varieties as Columbia and Red
Radiance, are the mainstay of the local
rose garden. These roses combine stur-
diness with perpetual blooming habit
and in this region are generally hardy
without protection.
The tea roses, represented by such
delightful varieties as Lady Hillingdon.
are not as strong growers as the hybrid
teas, but are delightfully."- fragrant and
also ever blooming. On account of
tnelr smaller size, they appear to better
advantage when planted by themselves
rather than intermingled with hybrid
teas or hybrid perpetuals.
The polantha roses, better known as
baby ramolers. are everblooming varie-
ties of dwarf growing habit. They are
Extremely vigorous, very free Towering,
but generally lacking in fragrance
Many new polyantha have been intro
duced in recent years and it would seem
shat this group deserves more considera-
eion by local gardeners.
The pernetianas are hybrid teas into
which has been bred some of the char
acters of the yellow Austrian brier rose.
The Souvenir de Claudius Pernet is
representative of the group. Unfor-
tunately, varieties in this class are un-
usually subject to black spot and rose
eanker and. for that reason, are difficult
to grow with the ordinary care given by
the everyday gardener.

VEGETABLE INSECTS

When the vegetable garden assumes
r,aior importance in household pro-
Grams It is of more than usual impor-
fance that insects and diseases be pre-
vented from taking severe TOLL OF tne
crops. .,h,.
Among insects capable of considerable
harm in the vegetable garden are the
Mexican bean beetle. common capoage
uorm. asparagus beetle, cucumber beetle,
potato beetle and corn-ear worm. so
different are the various types OF III
sects in their feeding habits that 1t mas
been necessary to work out metnoos Oh
control for each. The Mexican peah
beetle attacks all table beans ana also
cowpeas, soy beans and some otneI
lepumes. The spiny yellow larvae teeo
on the underside of bean leaves and, IN
a few days, completely strip the plant,
leaving only lacy network OF veins:
Because bean foliage is injured by
lead and calcium arsenates magnesium
arsenate is usually employed. This may
be applied either as lid or duse,
and one oun6 oI magnesium arSenate

ing with a powder made Of arsenate OF
lead and hydrated lime, half and half,
will destroy most of the soft slugs.
Where white potatoes are grown in the
garden care must be exercised that the
Colorado potato beetle does not de-
stroy the plants. This pest is in the
immature stages easily controlled with
arsenate Of lead applied either as a
liquid or as q dust.
Insect pests are most easily COM
batted when they first appear on the
plants and, for that reason, the gar
dener should be watchful and time his
spraying and busting when it will be
most helpful. Destruction of foliage.

JAPANESE IRIS

When considering iris for the gar
den. the purchaser should bear In mlno
the Japanese group which, because OF
their later Towering and real beauty
add greatly to the June garden. Al
though generally conceded more OF a
water iris than the more common gar
den form, the Japanese varieties, never
theless. thrive under usual garden con-
ditions. One handicap that has peen
attached to the japanese group is oelng
gradually removed, namely, that OF un-
rronounceable japanese names. Here
and there a plant dealer is offering an

In brilliance Of hue the japanese
iris surpasses the better known garoen

SOIL DISEASES

The home garden. by the very ma
ture of its continuous use for the sam.
crops of flowers and vegetables year
after year, becomes a veritable hotbed
for certain diseases that live in the
soil. This Is one reason why China
asters. sweet peas and certain other
flowers do well for one or two seasons
and then fail rather miserably. In
the vegetable garden cabbage club root
and potato scab are among the dis
eases which, If they gain a foothold,
increase in virulence as the years 60 by.
Heavy applications Of lime will greatly
reduce cabbage club root but. unfor-
tunately, will at the same time increase
the scab hazard to potatoes. The mar
ket gardener. with his many acres. meets
the soil disease problem by simple rota-
ton OF crops. But, unfortunately, ro-
tation is almost impossible in the small
home garden and, as a result. one is
often forced 70 abandon certain crops
for few years.
OF late years there has been consider
able interest in sterilizing soil with
strong antiseptics. such as compounds
of mercury. However such treatments
are expensive and as rule it seems
more promising to grow plants that are
naturally resistant to soil-borne dis
eases. Fortunately a great majority of
our cultivated flowers and vegetables
may be to classified.

GARDEN NOTES

Yielding as it does variety of prod
ucts such as juice, ketchup, preserves.
etc, the tomato is most useful vege-
table. If trained on stakes. tomato
plants can be grown much nearer to
one another than when permitted to
grow at will on the soil and the fruit
is Of higher quality. In fact, near some
cities outdoor-groWn stakes tomatoes
compete closely in price with green
house stock.
That there is a close relationship be-
tween the potato, tomato. eggplant and
pepper may be readily seen by study
Of the flowers. The solanum family, to
which they belong, contains also many
poisonous plants. including night shade.
The Frau Karl Druschki rose, usually
blooming but once year, promises. in
many gardens. an abundant second crop
of flowers. The moist weather must
have proved favorable to this variety,
which is classed as hybrid perpetual.
Golden Clean, the new double
howered nasturtium, is an attractive
novelty. Each plant makes a consider
able display, with short runners a foot
or so in length radiating from the
crown. The large semi-double golden
yellow flowers are carried on erect, stlH
flowers are extremely fragrant.
A species that deserves praise be-
cause of its snowy display of brightly
colored flowers at this season of scanry
bloom is the fashioned bergamot.
The plants are of the easiest culture,
apparently thriving under a wide range
of soil conditions
Asclepias tuberosus, commonly known,
as butterfly weed and growing naturally
in open fields of this vicinity, is worthy
of introduction into the garden. III
fact, the species is listed by many diff
ferent seedmen. The brilliant orange
blooms add greatly to the beauty of
the flower garden in July and August.
This plant is member of the milk
weed family.
Dahlias are making excellent growth
this year, but care should be paid to
the tying of the plants to the stakes so
as to prevent their Blowing over in
storms. If the favorable growing
weather continues through the Summer
this Autumn should again present a
profuSion of brilliant dahlia blooms.

CUTTING CLADIOLUS

Some gardeners hesitate to cut their
eladiolus blooms with long stems for
fear of weakening next years corms
now forming in the soil. However, II
four leaves are left uninjured, the corms
will ripen nicely. Cut stalks will keep
for several days if a little OF the stem
IS cut away each day and the water
renewed.
Some years ago, one Of the private
research institutions tested large num-
Der of different antiseptics for adding
70 the water in which cut flowers were
held and reached the conclusion that
none was really worth while.

BLUE HYDRANGEAS

The blue color seen at the present
time in many hyrangea plants is not
natural At least, in 16 varieties Of
fered by a local nursery firm, none Is
listed as having blue blooms. but NEIL
lion is made of the fact that blue color
alton may be induced by soil conditions
Acidity of the soil brings about loss
Of the normal pink color and. as a re-
suit, various gradations all the way
from pink to clear blue are seen. Some
years ago considerable experimental
work was done by the New Jersey Agri-
cultural Experiment Stations on the
causes Of the change in color Of hy-
crangeas, and at the time it was found
that color could be profoundly infiu-
enced by certain soil treatments. Lime
tended to maintain and promote pink
while aluminium sulphate, orange sui
phate and other acid-producing chem
3rals tended to turn the blooms blue.
In the home garden the kind Of FER
tilizer applied to hydrangeas should be
taken into consideration. Certain mix
lures tend to make the soil more acid
others tend toward neutrality or even
a1kaHnity.
1t is rather strange that this one
form of hydrangea is so affected when
the hardy species, Hydrangea panicu-
lata grandifora and Hydrangea arbo-
Yescens grandifora, are constant IN
color irrespective of soil reaction.
