Fans See Only Ayerapes.

"PREv1oUsLY, when a vote of the
fans was held, it was found that
most OF the players came from the
larger cities, like New York and
Chicago. Last year there were too
many White Sox and Cub players on
both teams. AS matter of fact the
National Leagues starting lineup,
with one exception, was composed
entirely of Cubs and st. Louis
Cardinals.

the pressure is on, might choose some.
body else who is batting 300 or even

THE system of having the man

and only way to make it a contest"

Portland Vase Is Finest
Cameo Cut Glass Relic

The Portland Vase, celebrated an
cient Roman glass vase or cinerary
urn, was found during the pontifi-
cate Of Urban VIII (1623-44) in a
marble sarcophagus (of Alexander
Severus, it is thought and his moth
er, Mammaea) in the Monte del
Grano, near Rome. It was at first
deposited in the Barberini palace at
Rome and hence is sometimes called
the Barberini Vase. It was bought
In ITO by Sir william Hamilton
and in 1887 by the Portland family,
who deposited it in 1910 with the
British museum, where it has since
remained, except for an attempted
auction in May, 1929, at Christies.
When no worthwhile bid was re-
ceived it returned to the possession
of the duke of Portland, who an
nounced it would continue to be on
view at the British museum.
The vase was broken to pieces by
a lunatic in 1845, according to a
writer in the Philadelphia Inquirer,
but the fragments were very skill
fully united again. The vase is 10
inches high, with the ground of dark
blue glass, and the fgure-subjects
which adorn it are cut in cameo
style in an outer layer Of opaque
white glass. 1t is the finest specimen
of an ancient cameo cut glass vase
known.

The Galloway aggregation will
play for dance Wednesday night,
June 8, at the St. Paul Auditorium,
giving Minnesotans their first OPP
portunity to hear and dance to the
melodies of one of the worlds

Galloway was secured after sew

Balm of Gilead
Proves Splendid
Tree For Trade
By MRS. MERLE NuFFER

If you are looking for tree that
affords a large amount of shade, is
a fast grower. and has beauty as
we'll as usefulness plant Balm Of
Gilead CPopulus candicanS). Tt is
decidious. but only for short time.
It's broad spreading top makes it
one of the best trees for summer
shade. l have beautiful speci-
men which towers high above the
house. 1t is four years old this
spring. These trees attain height
of so feet.
Although one derives great deal
of pleasure from trees. Towering
shrubs should come in for their
share of admiration, the white
floWered Duranta being one of my
favorites. 1t is identical in every
way with the blue Duranta or Gold
en- Dewdrop with the exception that
the blossoms form cascade which
makes the plant appear more grace
tul.
Another shrub which has proved
to be very satisfactory for this cli-
mate is the Pyracantha Formosiana.
In the spring it is lovely, covered
with its white blossoms, while in the
fall masses Of bright red berries add
a brilliant touch of color to your
garden.

Twenty-three years experience in
amateur gardening are summed up
IN the lovely walled garden at the
O. C. Horne residence, 500 Len
Rev avenue: garden which is
not only a source of constant en-
1oyment to members of the Horne
family and their friends, but which
is one of the valleys best Illus
trations OF the possibilities for
desert gardens.
Mrs. Horne, in discussing her
theories about home gardens which
are based on years of practical
work, emphasized the great re-
turns in pleasure which may be
obtained from the expenditure of
a little effort and money.
Plea To Renters
People who own their homes
beautify them as matter of
course but I should like to make
a plea to the renter, who. because
he expects TO remain only a short
time in the one location, does not
believe it worth his while to plant
permanent garden"
Mrs. Horne is sympathetic with
this point of view since she once
held it herself, refusing to plant
asything of permanent nature
as she thought each year would
be her last in that location. Like
so many valley residents, it was
years before she did move, 10 in
fact, and when I think of all the
joy and pleasure I could have had
during that time from Shrubbery-
when I think how 1 longed for a
rose garden, I can not urge others
too strongly to plant things that
are permanent and which will
bring pleasure throughout the year.
Moreover, think what it means to
the woman who comes after you
TO find lovely garden waiting for
her."
Outdoor Living Room
One Of the greatest needs for
comfort in Imperial Valley in Mrs
Horne'S opinion, is an out-of doors
living room. Her own garden. used
constantly by her family and their
friends, is proof enough. During
the warm weather it provides a
refreshingly cool refuge from the
heat and in all seasons of the year
its green shrubs and gay flowers
provide pleasure for many.
This great pleasure may be en-
joyed by all at relatively little
cost since shrubbery which will
make a nice showing may be pur-
chased for quite small outlay,
particularly when figured over
period of years.
In order to achieve an outdoor
living room. Mrs. Horne has rec
commended that the garden be en-
closed to give privacy so that the
family may use it as a real living
room.
Lattice fences. against which
climbing vines and shrubbery may
be trained, or shrubbery alone.

As we start to climb the slopes
toward the mountains that rim our
valley the vegetation changes. Here
we find clumps of the grey brittle
bush CEncelia). covered with yellow
blooms, looking for all the world
like a hugh pincushion filled with
long yelloW-headed pins. This shrub
is a hardy perennial which keeps
alive by refusing to send forth
blooms in dry years, but becomes
a riot OF bloom when rainfall is
plentiful. Here. too, we find many
cacti-the huge barrel cactus,
CBisnaga), with its circlet of yellow
blooms. this cactus being literally
the water-barrel of the desert: and
the Cholla cactus COpuntia) COM

Then as the shadows begin to

kindled in a desert wash; but as we
draw near they become our desert
smoke trees with their greyiSh-
white trunks and needle-like leaves.
Later, in June this tree is bedecked
with tiny pea blossoms, a deep rich
violet in color
Pathaps the most spectacular
shrub to be found on these slopes
is the Ocotillo, (Fouquieria Splen-
deus). This shrub grows from 10 to
20 feet high with many stalks to one
plant. The entire length of each
stalk is covered with sharp thorns,
and during wet seasons a cloak of
tiny green leaves is worn. At the top
os each stalk is a flaming spray OF
trumpet blossoms giving the appear
ance of a gigantic torch.
on the higher slopes, in direct
contrast to our Devils Candle
stick. we find the lovely yucca
with its large panicle of overpoWer-

which is often applied to this flower

CLIMATE IDEAL
In VALLEY FOR
MANY ROSES

there are the new single roses, gor-
geous. exotic things in every color,
both in bush and climber
The favorites of a quarter of a
century ago are now very difficult
to find. The Blush rose, and the
old fashioned Moss rose that de-
lighted our childhood days, would
be a rare plant in the garden Of
today. In their places, however, have
come new roses of such beauty OF
color and fragrance. of such SYM
metry and luxuriant growth as was
not dreamed of at that time. New
types are being developed each
year and it is a fascination
though somewhat expensive expert
ment, trying them out to see which
ones are suitable for our climate.
And almost always-they are.

RENTERS TOLD TO
PLANT FLOWERS

lily may live in the garden. eating
their meals there and entertain
imp their friends in cool comfort.
Use of Oleanders
OleanderS are ideal for encloS-
ing the yard if they are planted
close together as they grow rapid
ly. In illustration Mrs. Horne used
the Robert Hays residence. 740
South Sixth, where. in relative
ly short time. a hedge of oleanders
has grown to sufficient size to af-
ford privacy for the owners and
beauty for the paSSersbv.
Other quick growing shrubs are
tecoma capenSis, privet, myrtle.
while those which are ideal for
training against a fence are teco-
MIA capensis, plumbago, roses, jas
mine. honeysuckle, providing in
no time at all beautiful enclosure
for a garden
If a variety OF permanent shrubs
and vines is planted there is not a
month in the year in which some
thing will not be in bloom. Flow
ers alone have such a short bloom
ing period that the more perma-
nent plants are necessary for con-
slant enjoyment.
Fall Best Time
Fall. Mrs. Horne believes, is the
ideal time for planting, except for
those plants which cannot sur
vive the frost, as this fall plant
ing permits the root systems to
be thoroughly established before
hot weather Except in cases where
tn soil has been used over pc
riod of years, eXhausting its fer
tility. little soil preparation is
necessary.
I'VE have lived through the only
drought we shall have in all prob
ability, and we have experienced
the worst frost in history with the
result that we have found that the
loss in plants was comparative
small and that we can raise al
most anything in Imperial VAL
lev" said Mrs. Horne.
Plants recommended
Those plants which have gone
through frost and drought and
whicn. even if injured, were able
to stage a comeback are listed as
follows:
