Natures Children
Purple Cone Flower
(Rudbeckia hirta).
ToDAY'S PROGRAM

If we could persuade this husky
weed that her place Is really in a
cultivated garden and not in the
farmers meadows and fields, we would
accomplish much good.
The purple cone flower is a lavish
hostess. Her guests, the bees, WaspS,
butterflies, flies and even the beetles,
all contrive to visit the cone flower.
The nectar Is in the deep purplish
brown f1orets and can only be reached
by the long-tongued visitors But
there is an abundance of pollen for
all corners. That is one thing the
cone flower has done to make her
self successful American and take
possession of so much territory. BY
dispensing pollen to the short-tongued
tribe, she is sure of having pollen
brought to her by these guests, and
those equipped with long, hollow tube
tongues not only bring pollen, but
they also leave it and sip the nectar
provided to coax them into the deep
nectar cups.
There are many seed children ma
tured. The wind as we'll as devoted
admirers help to transport them. The
flower heads have from 10 to 20
orange-yellow neutral rays around a
darf1. purplish-brown disk of florets,
which contain both pistil and sta
mems. The stem is from l to feet
high, hairy, rough, and as a rule
unbranched. The leaves are oblong to
lance-shaped, rather thick, slightly
notched, and very rough to the touch.
Sunny spaces are preferred, and
dry fields to these flowers are ideal.
Blooming time is from May until Sep
tember, and the range is wide and
long.
In a wild flower garden, you will
really appreciate this flower. Per-
haps the first year will not count
so much in your estimation of the
flower as background. However, its
long blooming season. and its in
slant response to love and food will
soon win your confidence and love.

 It starts in a radio broadcasting statica, where the featured news brcadcastsr, played by Ronald Rea- gon, incurs the wrath of the spoi1- sors and is denoted to the chil- drens hour program.
 Introducing an innovation to pep up the Riddles Hour he broad casts the program as news, taking portable radio equipment to chil- dren's playgrounds.
 Refriending an urchin of the slums, The Moase," kids gang leader, he stumbles on a clue that leads to the solution of the mys- I terious disappearance and murder of a prominent businessman. ] A thrilling gun battle between police and gangSters is the climax Of the closing scenes, and excite ment runs high in this episode ill i the picture.
