The wrong kinds OF planCs LOT a
particular situation can never result
in real success, and hence little If
any enjoyment can be expected. 1t
is only through the growing OF the
right kinds of plants in well pre-
pared beds that we get the greatest
enjoyment from our gardening ac-
tivities.
Do Not Attempt
Too Much.
A too ambitious program Is more
apt to result in encouragement and
failure than to bring pleasure. With
our wartime activities and extra
duties we should be careful not to
attempt too much. A few minutes
work may be all that can be spared
morning and evening. If that brief
period produces satisfactory results,
flowers of quality in profusion even
on a limited scale. then it is worth
while. A garden that is too large to
be fully tended in the time available
will be neglected and soon becomes
discouraging. And in time like the
present we should avoid anything
that tends to discourage and depress.
Let's be modest and start on small
scale.
Regardless of the size or kind
OF garden that you choose 1t should

Shrubbery Pruning

Always prune shrubbery from the
bottom. Cut out old wood and not
new shoots, to keep the plant con-
tinually renewing itself. In pruning
shrubbery remove the entire branch
or stalk, cutting out the oldest wood
to keep the plant continually re-
newing itself.

Dish Gardens

Do not water the plants In your
dish gardens too often. Water only
when they become thoroughly dry.
Cactus plants grown In these gar

Arena Too
Good for
Lansing

EAST LANSING, Mich. -
Tony Arena was too good a CEN
ter last year, the 1912 Michigan
State College football team has
discovered. Arena was so dur
able and capable that he played
four full games, participated in
the entire nine and had Alb
playing minutes out of pos
sible $40. That meant that 9TH
er centers were occupying the
bench and as a result Coach
charley Bachman's squad is
lacking in experience at the
pivot post this year.
Howard Boyer. the Muskegon
sophomore is first in line for the
job. He played in only five of
the games last year and had a
total playing time of only 81
minutes. He saw longest service
against Temple, getting in for
26 minutes. Bill Monroe, re-
garded as a third string pros
pect, played only six minutes
all season. Other centers this
year are Ernest -Kockinon and
Austin Miller, both of Detroit,
who are sophomores.

for Finale
Discover Yonkees
Have No Chority

DETROIT, Sept. 17-(R-The
Detroit Tigers came up today
for their last bats of the season
against the champion New York
Yankees under the impression
that Joe McCarthy's men never
get satisfied.
Although the title already was
slowed away, the Yanks rubbed
it in on the Tigers yesterday
when Marvin Breuer pitched a
two-hitter for S to l victory
and today the visitors were
shooting for their Tooth triumph.
That was enough to make it
still tough for the Tigers, who
in defeat yesterday dropped a
game and a half behind Cleve-
land in the slow-motion contest
for fourth place. Breuer had a
no-hit game going into the
eighth.
Two walks and Joe Gordon's
wild throw in an attempted dou-
BILE play had given Detroit an
unearned run in the seventh, be-
fore they ever got a hit, but
Dutch Meyer singled in the
eighth to spoil Breuer's effort.
Doc Cramer doubled in the
ninth.
Three singles and walk scor-
ed a run for New York in the
first off Hal Newhouser, who
failed to last out the inning. A
homer by Gerry Priddy and Roy
Cullenbine's double with two
men on brought over three more
in the sixth off Jack Wilson. The
Yanks quit scoring in the sew
enth with a run off Hal Manders
on Gordon's walk and Kellers
double.

Fishermen
Report Huge
Salmon Catch

ASTORIA, Ore, Sept. II
R- Predictions that Bonnie
Vile Dam would kill the multi
million dollar Columbia River
salmon industry remained de-
batable today although fisher
men were u n o q d ing huge
catches for the third consecutive
year.
Since the season opened seven
days ago, boats have come IN

Loads ran up to $4,000 pounds.
The average was between 1000
and 5000 - reminiscent of last
years record-shattering 9,O0O,-
O00-pound catch.
Government experts, who as
serted the dam would not harm
the fishing industry, and fish
ermen, who feared sa m o n
would be unable to pass the
dam, agreed the catch settled
nothing; that they would have
to wait q few more years to
learn who was right.
Some fishermen, on the the
ory that salmon 60 TO sea for

expected the dam, built five
years ago, to affect this years
run.
Others pointed out that the
salmon which went to sea just
before the dam was completed
might have had q life cycle of
five, six or seven years, and
are returning only now.
Government experts admitted
that possibility, and added there
were q number of other unset

hatcheries have released more
