POISON IVY CONTROL.

One of the most obnoxious pests about
the suburban home, poison ivy. should
be eradicated as quickly as possible. It
is true that the plant is beautiful, but
its toxicity offsets any possible value.
Furthermore, it spreads quite rapidly by
underground stems and by seeds and
becomes an ever greater menace If left
undisturbed
An editorial In one of our well known
farm papers suggests positive and easy
control, that Of dusting calcium chlorate
on the leaves when they are wet with
dew. According to this article. leaves
die shortly and in a few weeks the stems
also perish, even to their bottommost
roots. The remedy Is simple and worth
trial. We do know that calcium
chlorate Is used extensively as a weed
killer in certain sections of the country
If 1t will eradicate poison ivy it Ger
tainly deserves place in the gardeners
program Of pest control.

There really Is no purpose in throw
ing such plants into the rubbish pile
when they lose their initial beauty. but
rather give them place in the garden
or. If one has no garden, to a suburban
friend. Easter plants are highly transi-
tory in the hot, dry atmosphere of the
home There is no reason to believe
that the foliage is diseased It is simply
that the plant can not thrive under
such conditions. If one but recollects
a visit to a florist establishment. he
will recall that most flowers in bloom
are held in a relatively cool and humid
greenhouse. When the dying Easter
plant is removed to the garden, it will
gradually put forth new leaves and de-
velop into sturdy plant Fertilizer
will not help the plants until they have
become re-established, but a mulch Of
leaf mold or of peat moss may aid

HITLER NAz| PARTY RETAUATE THREATS
 ID BOYCOTT GERMANY

BERLIN, March 28, -Adolph Hitler's Nazi party answered the foreign threat of boycotts against German goods by announcing a movement to boycott Jewish bus ness establishments within the Reich
 The purpose of this movement will be to retaliate against foreign CTS who have made protests based on allegations of anti-semetlc outrages in Germany.
 Government toleration of the movement was seen in commun- ique issued by the Telegraphen Union which denied the boycott would have official support, but admitted the administration would tolerate these measures so long as foreign governments take no steps against atrocity propagan- da."
 Because of the interior censor ship exercised in Germany, 1t woud have been impossible for the Telegraphen Union to carry the above communique had the gov- ernment opposed it.
