Stakes Keep Garden Trim
and Protect Plants

Properly staked plants insure an
orderly garden. Lack Of proper
stalking means that you are reason
ably sure TO have some wrecked
and messy beds later in the sea-
son. A heavy rain or windstorm
is likely 10 knock over tall and
heavy. foliage plants which natural
ly have stems not sufficiently
sturdy to stand up under such Cir
cumstances.
Peas pole beans and tomatoes
need stalking in Victory Gardens.
Delphiniums are the first plants
In the garden TO show the need for
stalking. The heavy spikes Of bloom
on these stately perennials make
them singularly susceptible TO de-
struction by winds or heavy rains.
Stake them before the buds start
to open and save the beauty Of the
delphiniums. Gladiolus with heavy
spikes Of bloom are likely to need
stakes. Lilies and iris Of the taller
types also need this assistance. Tall
African and French marigolds are
tipped over by wind or rain and
become a jungle. Stalking would
have saved them.
The first requisite Of good stalking
Is that the stakes should be strong
and capable Of holding up the
plant, but as unobtrusive as pos
sible. Green painted stakes are
least conspicuous. The cheapest
and most efficient stakes are the
bamboo canes sold in varying
lengths by dealers. They may be
bought already painted in their
natural color and you can paint
them yourself. They are strong and
durable. Recently heavy wire
stakes have been offered and they
are least obtrusive Of all especially
when painted green. Plants can be
tied TO them easily and hung up
right so that the tying cannot be
distinguished until viewed at close
range.
Set the stakes and tie the plants
before they come into bloom. A
good Job Of stalking that will not

NEW METHODS
 OF HANDLING
 FIRE BOMBS
Procedure of Attacking h. (endiaries Revised,
 Director States

New instructions for dealing with fire bombs have been issued by the U. s. Office of Civilian Defense, ac- cording to R. E. Robertson, Director of Civilian Defense in Juneau.
 These revised instructions" he explained today, "are the results of extensive research by technicians of OCD and the Chemical Warfare Service of the U s. Army, The major change in procedure calls for the use of a direct stream of water on the bomb instead of the spray hitherto recommended. Also the need for speed is emphasized, in attacking the bomb with a jet of water as soon as it falls rather than waiting for the thermit reaction to be completed or for 'burster' charge to go off"
 MT. Robertson stated that, Our own experiments and recent experl- ence in Great Britain have shown It to be absolutely necessary to change our procedure in attacking incend- iary bombs The jet method is quick CT and more effective. Actually the fire it starts is more dangerous than the bomb, and the quickest and surest way to reduce that danger is to strike the bomb with jet of water. This puts the bomb out of action in less than one minute so that, if necessary, other fire bombs can be attacked before they can start serious fires. With the new method we will save more lives and more property in the event of raid That is the only sound criterion for judging the matter"
 The new instructions, reduced to essentials, are as follows:

 Say Officers

Commis- sioner Felix Gray's Court and was sworn to by special agent of the Federal Bureau of Investigation after being authorized by the Unit ed States Attorneys office.
 Mrs. Watson is accused of shoot ing and killing her husband in front of their home at Pelican City on August 3. The affair climaxed a wild drinking party. Mrs. Wat son heard the charge and waived the customary preliminary hearing. She is being held in the Federal jail without bond and will be bound over to await the action of the grand jury.
 The charge was filed after an FBI agent had made a trip to Pelican City for further investi- gation in the case.

She told officers that If there had been another shell in the rife she would have used 1t on herself
