ticular as to soil, although it does
best in a warm, well-drained sandy
loan. A neutral soil is preferred
alkaline rather than acid and it will
do well in shade.
This Viburnum is followed by one
that is very different, although it
also comes from China. V. fragrans
looks like our native V. dentatum
which we know as arrowwood. 1t
Is brown rather than gray. Even the
foliage is a brownsh-g green. 1t has
a stiff upright type of growth, some
what taller than V. earliest The
flowers open before the leaves ap-
pear which adds to the stiff out
line of the shrub. This fragrant
Viburnum, though found in the
temple gardens of China, came to
America via England.
v. fragrans likes a slightly aka
Tine soil. full sun. good air circula-
ton and dry feet. A grower ad-
vises us not to let young plants
flower and emphasizes the need for
good drainage.
V. burkWoodi, of recent INTRODUCE
ton, was developed by an English
man named Burkwood, from a cross
between V. utile and V. earliest. 1t is
said to be nearly evergreen even IN
the far north. 1t, too, has a de-
licicus fragrance.
From Europe come V. opulus, the
t1ighbush cranberry. The sterile form
of this variety is commonly known
as the SNOWFALL which grew in every
dooryard a few years ago. Plant
lice attacked it so badly that 1t has
largely lost favor. The fact that its
berries are too sour to be relished by
birds explains why they remain
throughout the winter. giving color
to the shrub border. Three varieties
of this species, having large useful
fruits were developed and released
by the United States Department of
Agriculture. The species and Its
varieties are useful as tall back
ground paintings.
Another species called V. lantana
(Wayfaring-tree) Is vigorous grow
er also coming to us from Europe.
It thrives in drier places than most
of the species and is used extensive
~ as understood for propagating a
number of the members Of this fam
lily. Its light green wrinkled leaves
which are white underneath turn
deep red in the fall. Like many Of
the others it has white flowers fol-
lowed by red berries which turn
black in the fall.
The leatherleaf Viburnum, "
fhytidophyllum, has been rather
widely planted for its foliage which
is large, deeply wrinkled and dark
green. While considered to be
evergreen here and hardy. it suffers

TONNAGE BREAKS
ALL PREVIOUS
CANAL RECORDS

Tonnage hauled through the en-
larged Chesapeake and Delaware
Canal in 1910 will break all previous
records for the use of the canal.
A 1910 freight tonnage total Of
approximately 100000 is expected
for the calendar year. This will be
an increase of more than Is per
cent over tonnage carried through
the canal in 1889.
Use of the canal has increased
steadily as the improvements have
continued. Dredging is under way
to secure 81 feet project depth"
for the east entrance from the Della
ware River to the Reedy Point
Bridge. The rest of the canal depth

The proper selection of china and
the small detail of having plates hot
will do much toward making meal
a success.
If you let potatoes stand in hot
water before baking, they will bake
more quickly. Dry them well before
putting in the oven.
Put dry cake and macaroons thru
food chopper and use in ice cream,
or add to whipped cream, with few
pieces of candied fruit, for an attrac-
tive dessert. Chocolate cake crumbs
folded with the whipped cream will
give quite a pronounced chocolate
flavor.

already is 81 feet. The width of the
canal is $50 feet except at some
points, such as the depth cut, where
erosion and slides have carried dirt
into the canal. Bank sterilization
is now being done.
Increase in the tonnage carried
through the canal is held largely
due to recent use Of the canal by
deep-draft vessels. Project depth of
the canal three years ago was IL
feet at mean low water.
The short cut through the canal
decreases time between Philadelphia
and New York and Baltimore by a.
bout "a hours. The alternate route
is via the Virginia Capes.
Owners Of many shallow-draft
boats which previously hesitated to
make the trip due to limitations Of
the canal, now also use it as a short
cut, officials said.
One factor in the anticipated in
crease is the national defense mate
rails hauled through the canal.
Sixty-five deep draft vessels used
the canal in the first 81 days of last
month. Twenty-eight were engaged
in foreign trade; 20 in coastwise
trade, and II in intercoastal trade.

DRASTIC PLAN
TO ADJUDCE The
ROAD DANGERS

Immediate steps toward jurisdic-
ton over traffic violation cases from
officials whose compensation is de-
pendent upon fees or fines, is the
leading plank in a drastic program
for traffic court reform advanced by
the American Automobile Associa-
ton.
The announcement was made by
Thos. p. Henry, of Detroit, Mich,
President of the national motoring
body, who declared that the conven-
ing of AZ state legislatures in regular
session in 1941 afforded a unique
opportunity to improve the obsolete
and unsound conditions under which
motor vehicle law violations are adj
Indicated in hundreds of jurisdic-
tions.
The A. A.. A. President added that
the program advanced is based on the
report of a special committee Of the
Association and is in close harmony
with recommendations advanced by
the National Committee on Traffic
Law Enforcement, the National Con-
ference of Judicial Councils, and the
Automotive afety Foundation. Mr..
Henry said in part:
ut has long been apparent that the
inotorist cannot hope to secure falr
trial at the hands Of an official who
depends for his livelihood on the fines
he assesses or the fees he charges.
Such q method has no place in the
scheme Of American jurisprudence.
Hence, we demand that officials, such
ne the Justice Of the Peace handling
traffic cases along the highway,
should be placed on regular salary
or that regular justice courts, such
IS have already been established in
several states, be set up to handle
such cases.
"In addition to the unsavory a.
buses resulting from the fee system
of arresting and filming, general con-
ditions in the regular traffic courts
of our towns and cities are far from
satisfactory. Hence, we strongly
recommend that the procedure of all
courts in regard to traffic cases be
brought into harmony with the prin-
ciples set up by our special commit
tee, as follows:
a. All traffic cases should be
handled apart from other court bust
ness and minor traffic violators shall
not be treated as criminals.
b. Speedier handling of cases
should be provided for by establish
ment Of violations bureaus when min
or attractions are too numerous to be
handled through regular court pro-
cedure.
G. Physical courtroom conditions
should be improved as to facilities,
arrangements, cleanliness and ap-
pearance.
d. Traffic judges should be well
grounded in the knowledge Of traffic

laws, traffic policing, and traffic en-
gineering, in addition to regular legal
training.
e. Higher standards Of decorum
and courtroom procedure should be
established.
f. Primary aim of the traffic court
should be to impress defendants
with the need of law observance
rather than to penalize."
