TIME TO CLEAN UP THE
FLOWER GARDEN.

Many disease-producing organ
isms, such as those which cause
mildew, blights, and rusts of differ
ent flower plants, live over winter
on and in old plant parts. A thor
ough cleanup in the flower garden
this fall will not eliminate all dis
eases from the garden next year,
but 1t will decrease their preva-
lence and make it easier to have
healthy plants, according to Paul
&. TilfOrd, Ohio Agricultural Ex-
pertinent Station plant disease spe-
cialist
Tops of herbaceous perennials,
such as peony and iris. should be
cut close to the ground and removed
at once. Chrysanthemums and 9TH
er fall-blooming plants should be
cut few inches above the ground
as soon as Towering is over. An
nual plants should be pulled from
the soil. These tops should be re-
moved from the flower beds and
composted. In two Or three years
the old tops will have rotted and
will be excellent material to work
into the garden soil. BY that time,
there will be no danger from dis
ease producing organisms that may
be Oh these old tops at the present
time.
1t is better to burn the remains
of plants that died during the sum-
mer because of wilt or root rot.
The fungi which cause disease such
as aster wilt and delphinium crown
rot will remain alive in the soil for
years, and it is not advisable to add
plants affected with these diseases
to the compost pile. 1t is wasteful,
however, to burn plant material un-
less it is known to be infected with
disease organisms that will not die
out in composing.

the match by sending him to Europe,
but on August 3, 1896, the couple
married without the knowledge OF
the elder Vanderbilts.
Mrs. Vanderbilt became an out
standing hostess in both America
and Europe. More than any other
New Yorker she and the future gen.
eral entertained visiting royalty, a
record begun at the turn of the CEN
tury when they had as luncheon
guest Prince Henry Of Prussia.
The Cornelius Vanderbilts made
frequent pre-war visits to Europe
and on their yachts entertained
Wilhelm of Germany and Edward
VII and George V of England. In
1918 Mrs. Vanderbilt was received
aboard King Georges yacht at
Cowes 40 times and the friendship
with the German ruler resulted in
several broad hints that he would
like to have Vanderbilt in Berlin as
American Ambassador. The VAN
derbilts were received, too, by the
Gar and royal family Of Russia.
The VanderbiltS' children, Corne-
Illus. jr., newspaper and magazine
writer. and Grace, former wife of
Henry Gassoway Davis, Sd, Of West
Virginia, approximated their parents
experiences by following their own
bents. The general didn't like his
namesake's writings on the foibles
of society and they were repeatedly
cool for several years. The daugh-
ter married Mr.. Davis in a hurried
ceremony at New York'S municipal
building June %, 1927, followed by
a midnight ceremony at the Little
Church Around the Corner. Cor
nelius, jr., explained that the we'd
ding was hurried because mother
wanted Grace to marry an English
man and she's didn't love him."
Mrs. Davis obtained a divorce in
Wyoming in August, 1896. Her
brother, twice divorced, was married
three times.

GROSS INEQUITY

Wayne l.. Morse, public member

out that Ford employees had re-
ceived 25 to % pr cent increase!
in their hourly time rate since
Jan. /, 1941, and that granting
the proposed increase now would
create gross inequity with respec
to the industry as a whole. H'
continued:
1.-THE wages now paid at the
Ford plant must now be recog-
nizsd as being relatively good
wages, not involving maladjust-
ments, inequalities, gross inequi-
ties. or substandards.
ut would be a reflection upon
the patriotism of the Ford en-
plOyes to attempt n justification
of general wage increase upon
the basis OF any argument that
such an mere should be
granted under that provision OF
the executive order which states,
