The Old Gardener Says:

1t is very important to protect
the roots of all plants from the
sun and from the wind while
planting operations are under
way. Many losses for which
nurserymen are blamed are really
caused by failure to keep this
fact in mind. Strawberry plants
should he set in a pail of water
or with their roots in mud until
they can go into the ground.
Rose plants should be kept in
water or "heeled in" "Heeling
in" is also recommended for
fruit trees and for shrubs which
cannot be planted as soon as
they are unpacked. This means
digging a shallow trench in some
sheltered spot into which the
plants may be set at an angle,
close together, the roots then be-
ing covered with earth. A piece
of burlap or a shoveltul of earth.
thrown over a plant laid aside
for a few moments at planting
time, will help to avoid loss.

Fn|K Frock Wakes One Young Ingenious
Designed With Unbroken Lines.
So That Figure Appears
Tall and Slender.
Restrained Use of Rufles in
Jabot and Shaped Sleevelets
Has Youthful Effect.
BY BARBARA BELL.

TT is going to be very smart, this
Summer, to look young and in
genuous in little cotton frocks
i made in a frilly, yet not fussy,
way cchc model pictured shows
the new trend in hot weather frocks,
and however you may feel about 1t
now, when Summer is actually here,
this is the sort of dress smart women
will be seen in AS in most dresses
of its type, it has been kept simple.
1t is designed with unbroken lines
that never fail to make the figure
look tall and slender. This is a sea-
son when fashion puts special en-
phasis on ruf3es, and the restrained
use of them here, in the brief jabot
and shaped sleevelets, brings a sug-
gestion of youth to this model that
will be becoming either to the young
or the not-So-young.
These dresses are very useful, and
they bring more than mere novelty
to a wardrobe. They are the out
growth of the vogue for glorified
house dresses. At a moments notice
woman can transform herself
from the matter person she
appears to be in an ordinary frock
into one who is apparently without
a care in the world, feat, you'll
agree.
Most of these frocks are found in
dainty dimities. figured lawns and
handkerchief linens. Usually the
colors are little deeper than pastels.
Blues are. of course, first, not only
the bright turquoise tones, but the
beautiful sapphire blue of Patou, and
an English blue called marine. Con-
siderable yellow is being used. and
pinks that range from coral to shrimp
and from flesh to raspberry, are al
ways popular.

DOUBLE KILLING
NOW BELIEVED
ACCIDENTAL
Single Bullet Took Lives Of
District Man and Girl in
HagerstoWn, Police Find

HAGERSTOWN, Md, April S.
The deaths Of Harold B. Hall, 40,
Of Washington, former prohibition
agent, and Charlotte Hudson, II,
which, authorities believed, were a
murder and suicide, may possibly
both have been accidents, police
divulged today.
After a thorough investigation
and a reconstruction Of the double
shooting, Capt. Clarence G.
Emmert, Of the local police, and
Detective William Peters are con-
vinced that the young girls death
was an accident, with the posi-
bility that Mr.. Hall did not intend
to shoot himself.
The pair died Tuesday after the
man is supposed to have shot Miss
Hudson and then turned the gun
on himself.
Despite the testimony of the
girls mother, Mrs. Maude Hudson,
that she heard two shots in quick
succession, police believe that the
pair died from one bullet. They
stated that the bullet went
through the mans left temple and
then entered the left side of the
girls head.
Powder burns we're found on Mr..
Halls head, but none were dis
covered on the girls. This evi-
dence strengthened the belief that
both died from the same bullet.
Mr.. Hall was at the time of his
death employed in the Veterans
Bureau and lived in Washington
in the 100 block Of M st. N. w.

BABY SELLING
CHARGE FALLS
Official Credited With State
ment lnferring Scandal De-
clares 1t Was Distorted.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 81. (U.P,
Miss Elizabeth Owens, state
official whose charge of baby
bartering by doctors created 8
widespread scandal, said today she
hadn It known "of one case in the
last year."
eff it is done, it is done very
seldom,'' said Miss Owens, CHIEF
of the child adoption division OF
the state department of welfare.
The charge that some doctors
had arranged for adoption of ba-
bies born to INDECENT mothers in
order to obtain their medical fee
appeared in a report submitted by
Miss Owens to Gov. Frank F.. Mer-
rialn at Sacramento.
The paragraph, Miss Owens ex-
planned, thanked the medical pro-
fession for its aid to her division
in law enforcement but excepted
the doctor who occasionally ar
ranges for an illegal adoption.
1.-The exception was taken from
the rest of the paragraph and
distorted,' she said later.
A minor official of the welfare
department was quoted as saying
there had been three reports of
illegal adoptions within the last
six months but that the bureau
had no funds to investigate them.
Miss Owens said that the cases
would be reported to the district
attorneys of the counties in which
they occurred. She did not speci-
fly the counties.
Under the present law only par
ents with court sanction, the Child
rem S Home society and the Native
Sons and Daughters central COM
mittee on homeless children are
empowered to arrange adoptions.
