If Self Sterile,
Fruit Tree May
Be Made Bear


Backyard fruit, growers who
have 13nIy one OF t&os tres$ fSs
each kind of fruit frequently have
trouble getting them to bear, even
when they have a good crop OF
blossoms, say fruit specialists in
the United States department of
agriculture.
Blossoms of certain common
fruit varieties do not fertihze
themselves but must be cross-pOl-
lnated. They are self-Sterile, and
depend upon pollen - usually
brought by bees - from nearby
trees of other varieties.
A small home orchard should be
planted to varieties which fertilize
themselves, or. if they are self
sterile, two or more varieties OF
the same tree may be planted,
Where self-Sterile trees already
are established, a permanent rem
edy is to tOp-wUl-k a few of the
limbs to varieties that bloom al
the same time as the rest Of the
tree. The best time for top-work.
ing fruit trees is just as growth
starts IN the spring. ''
A temporary measure is tC
place a limb of different variety
blooming at the same time a.
the tree to be pollinated-in the
top of the Self-Sterile tree. Bee:
will visit the blossoms of the liml
and pOllinate the flowers of tn,
tree. Branches cut from one tire,
and placed in another retain then
freshness for several days If tn,
cut ends are placed in water.

rieties of apples. and in most va

Sparing The Heat
Will Save Meat,
Is Advice Given

Cook meat at moderate tempcra-
ture. says the bureau Of home
cconomicSh. Meat is a protein
and. like white of egg, is tOughen-
ed and hardened by long heating
at high temperatures. Broil, roast,
or fry tender, well-fattened cuts
from young animals, in an uncov-
cred dish without water. Bralse,
simmer, or stew less tender, lean
er cuts with a cover, with OF with
out water.
All cuts of pork, lamb and veal
are tender. Pork and lamb are
fat enough for roasting and broll-
ing. Veal usually is fat enough
only for braising-generaily with
a little liquid added.
The less connective tissue there
is in beef-the more tender 1t IS.
"S,ugher cuts are made tender il
cooked as pot roasts, "smothered',
or braised steak, or stew, or II
ground or chopped and cooked as
tender meat in hamburg steak or
meat loaf. Fat usually is added.
To pan-broil tender steak OF
chops. brown both sides in light
" creased. sizzling hot skillet,
lower the heat and cook slowly,
turning the meat to insure even
cooking. Pour off accumulated
fat or the meat will fry. Never
cover or add water in pan-broll-
ing.

 New York, April S.-CUPJ-This admirer of the manly art of self de- fense walked along the rue de cauli- flower for the first time in many months today, was gratifled to find it unchanged. Winter has taken but a slight toll.
 The same guys, out to apply the touch and put the bee on, lolled on the corners where the fitful Forties slice into Broadway. The same sterling characters lounged in 'Le Boxes" unofficial clubrooms-the outer offices of the Garden and Mike Jacobs Twentieth Century club. The cigar smoke was just as thick, the air just as scarce, the derbieS just as black.
 Only one new spot has sprung into life-Mickey Walkers Toy Bull- dog tavern-a spot where the whiskey is as hard as Mickey used to be when he was a welter, the steak knives sharp as machetes, and the bartenders know your first name. As the genial host, Mickey keeps the same hours he did as a fighter, 4 D. m. to p. m. Everything is running beautifully, Mickey said, but for one thing-the wall decora- tions are too inspirational to the customers. The walls are decorated with tremendously realistic pictures of fights, and the customers, after

ulated by the various referees who officiated at the affair for being the best sportsmen at the tourney. Naugatuck met the strongest team in the tourney in its first match, Washington, and on the return home local players expressed the opinion that they could beat this team again if full strength were available.
 The Germantown, Pa. team which Naugatuck trimmed in a thrilling battle was seven times champion of the country and members of this team expressed the belief that if Naugatuck keeps the same team for three years, it stands good chance for the national title.
 Members of the local outfit and their wives explored historic spots in Washington, Sunday. Some visited with Atty. Joseph McGroary of Washington, former Naugatuck res- ident, who showed them around the town.

 "It's those pictures that get 'em," Mickey said. "One look at that pie ture of Dempsey at Toledo after they've had a few slugs, and they start looking for a Willard. We ain't got any Willard, so they usually wind up with me. And I'm getting tired"
 The chief topic of conversation along the Rue de Cauliflower these days is of Herr Max Schmeling, the black Uhlan of the Rhine, who, with "Heil, hell Hitler and hot-cha- cha" sails from Hamburg the 18th of this month to meet Joe Louis here in June. There is wide divergence of opinion along the Rue as to just why Herr Schmeling made the fight with Louis. Some say he is coming strictly for the dough and will fight no more than is necessary to qualify for his end of the purse. It is this school of thought that maintains that Schmeling is stony broke and spends his afternoons mooching the free lunch in the Adelon bar. Others insist Schmeling is independently wealthy and wants nothing from the Louis fight but the glory of whip ping the man critics rate as one of the greatest fighters ever to stick his fist in glove.
 A third school is of the opinion that the German is an exceedingly vain man, and is fighting so as to once again smear the headlines with his name, and show his wife, the beauteouS cinema actress Annie Ondra, that as celebrity he is able to stand on his own feet. A bit confused by all of this we turned to Jack Cuddy, a fellow toiler in the bonds, for aid. Cuddy was in Berlin month ago, and broke tea with Herr Schmeling at the fighters town house. We told Cuddy of the things we heard along the Rue, and asked him for the truth. And the truth, it seems, is this:
 Herr Schmeling is not broke.
 "You don't live in the place we had tea if you're broke," Cuddy bluntly stated. He's got plenty. I don't doubt, however, that Max was decidedly influenced by the money he'll make against Louis. As you know, he's 8 money-loving man. And he must think he'll lick Joe, too, otherwise I don't think he'd jeopardize the reputation he has as 8 fighter with his countrymen. Max

NAUGATUCK ""
 VOLLEYBALLERS HAD FINE YEAR
George HallOway Picked on AII-TOurnament Team
 at Washington, D. C.

Naugatuck, Aprl 8-The Nauga- tuck "" volley ball team has re- turned home from Washington, well-satisfied with the results of their play in the Cherry Blossom tourney in which they placed third. This tourney wound up a season for the Naugatuck team which was the best it ever had.
 The locals consistently this season met some of the best opposition in the country and acquitted them selves creditably. They won tour nament in Bridgeport in which the West Side, N. Y. Bronx, Man chester and Bridgeport completed and finished runner-up to Provi- dence in the New England champ Aonship tourney and later finished in third place in a meet at Man chester where leading New England net combines took part. Naugatuck also won a tourney in Worcester in which Boston and Worcester competed. The locals poorest show ing was made at Jamacia early in the season when they failed to win . match against Philadelphia, Ja- maica and Camden N. J. all crack teams.
 Halloway Picked
 George Halloway of the Nauga- tuck team did so well at Washington that he placed as one of the spikers on the all-tournament team picked after play closed. His hard drives were going so fast that members of opposing teams frequently turned their backs to the net in order to avoid being hit in the face by the ball.
 Naugatuck suffered bad break in the crucial match with Jamaica, losing of which eliminated them from their tourney. With the score 13-all in the second game, Nauga- tuck having lost the first, Fred Bak- CT star spiker fo rth, locals, tainted from exhaustion.
 Locals Handicapped
 Only six players represented Naugatuck at the tourney and had they full strength with subs avail able for use against weaker teams, the players believe they might well have won the tourney. Because of the inability of Captain Joseph Smith to attend, it was necessary to change the lineup with Fred Ash more playing with HaNoway, Alder son with Hassell and Elton Abram- son with Baker. This team had not played in this order before, which laek of practice undoubtedly cost them a few points. Several games which Naugatuck lost were decided by the narrowest of margins and the few points might have meant the difference between victory and de- feat.
