Plant Berry Bushes, Trees
That Provide Food for Birds
BY ISABEL FUCKER
Detroit Times Garden Editor

IN FALL. when the birds are
departing southwark, many
gardener bemoanS the fact that
his garden provides hut little
food TO hold the nocks for
longer time.
But as no one ever found him
self with food plants for birds
without having planted them. II
might be a good idea to think
ahead 10 fall at this season Of
the year when provision may be
made for planting a few Of the
berried or fruiting shrubs that
attract birds.
For food in summer and early
autumn five plants are particu-
larly recommended. The first Of
these is the Tatarian honey
suckle which Will soon be in
bloom.

Fragrant Flowers

From the point of beauty il
may be had with three different
ColorS Of blossoms, white, pink
or red and regardless of flower
color all of these will have red
berries which the birds like. The
flowers are not large but are
very fragrant. the shrubs are
strong growing and easily estab-
lished and will grow in shade as
well as sun.
The red osier or red-twigged
dogwood is liked in planting

New Potatoes

Though several new varieties Of
potatoes have been growing in popu-
larity in recent years, the CONNER
cial grower should change from the
old standard Cobbler, Green Noun
tain or Rural varieties only if the
newer varieties show by test that
they produce more potatoes or better
quality potatoes. Diseases, blacken-
ing in cooking and other troubles of
the standard varieties led to an in
tensive potato breeding program
during the years since 1915. Work
initiated by the department of agri-
culture brought forth the Katahdin
variety in 1882, followed since by
Chippewa, Houma, Sebaga, Sequoia,
Pontiac, and Erlaine No. 2. All
these new potatoes have good shape,
white flesh, are resistant to the
mosaic disease, and have little ten
dency to blacken after cooking. Most
of the new varieties, however, are
subject to the leafrol disease, and
are less mealy than Green Mountain
and other standard potatoes when
cooked, according to Prof. E. v.
Hardenburg of Cornell university.

Corn Borer Remedies

Now is the time for farmers to
map their warfare against the Euro
pean corn borer. Clean blowing is
an important practice in the control
program and is more satisfactory
than burning, because this latter
practice fails to kill all the borers
and destroys valuable organic mat
ter. ALI cornstalks and weeds should
be removed or plowed under before
May 10. If oats follow corn in rota-
ton, the land should be plowed be-
fore oats seeding. Since it is neces-
sary to pillow corn stubble, it might
be well to follow corn with soybeans
and disc the soybean stubble the
next year for oats seeding. Where
legume seedlings are to be made in
oats following soybeans, thorough
packing of the soils will aid in Sc
curing good stands Of the legumes.
In areas of heavy infestation, it is
desirable to avoid early planting of
corn on very fertile soils in order
to escape as many of the first gen.
Grafton borers as possible. Because
first generation borer moths prefer
to lay eggs on tall, fast-growing corn,
such plants will have the heaviest
egg deposits.

Dog Flew Out to Combat
SO Times in a Bomber

SANTA ANA, CALIF.-Six hum
dred hours in the air, including SO
combat missions in the South Pa
cific. is the record of an 18-month-
old Scotty named Skipper, the
canine mascot Sergt. Joseph Ange-
lini of Philadelphia picked up in AL
buquerque, N. NJ, when the pup
was six days old.
Sergeant Angelini and Skipper
were aboard the first BIZ bomber
to fly over Guadalcana1. Skipper
whined a bit on the first trips, but
he quit that when he got used to the
noise Of the guns, Angelini says.
Skipper had a cut-down oxygen
mask that he gratefully wore at high
attitudes and life jacket that saved
him once when the plane crash-land-
ed off the Solomons. Later they
named a bomber for Skipper.
Sergeant Angelini is now a pilot
cadet. Skipper is with him, living
a sedate life at last and dreaming
of the deer and gooney birds he
used to chase on Guadalcanal

Service Mems Valentines
Date Back to Crimean War

Valentines for service men are by
no means a new idea. The wars OF
the past century have always
brought forth a batch of missives
which take cognizance Of the fact
that many sweethearts and hus-
hands, sons and brothers are in uni
form. .....
As far back as 1855, during the
Crimean war, British soldiers were
receiving Valentine greetings from
the people at home. These cards
were usually reproduced on fine
white paper from hand-cut wood en-
cravings and delicately colored by
hand.
One Crinean war Valentine, now
a token priced by New York col
lector, depicts green-uniformed
British soldier holding musket, and
carries this stirring message:
Rise and form, behold your duty
Homes ard hearths you must
defend,
Win the smiles, the love of beauty
. Which to courage strength shall
lend.
England's eyes are fixed upon you
Bright ones too will shine more
bright
When they seek that safety from
e.. you,
Yours the duty, theirs the right.

Vitamin b Gives Lift

Men, women and children who
need a lift which is not to be fol-
lowed by a headache had better
check up on their consumption Of
vitamin B. Laziness, predisposition
to Mysteries, grouchiness and other
mental disorders are accentuated by
lack Of vitamin B. Most foods con-
tain some of this vitamin but only
a few Of them are really good
sources. Doctors and nutrition ex-
perts agree that it is better to get
the needed supply of vitamins from
food than from pills, and it is also
cheaper. Foods which are rich in
vitamin B include lean pork, liver
and other meat organs, whole grains.
dried beans and peas, soybeans, and
nuts, particularly peanuts:

Rationing Shows Need
To Preserve Home Stocks

Now that it has been definitely de-
termined that supplies Of home-pre-
served products will not cause fam
lilies to forfeit stamps in War Ration
Book No. 2 soon to be issued, the
well stocked pantry becomes even
more valuable.
Before spring gardens come into
production many families will need
to fall back on their home-preserved
foods to assure their families ade-
quate diets, says Wi1ifred Jones.
specialist in food preservation for
the Texas A. and M. college. For
that reason they should take the best
possible care Of home canned, dried
and brined foods they have on hand.
Miss Jones suggests that food
canned in glass should be kept in a
cool, dark place. The darkness helps
the food hold color and vitamins.
Timed goods should be kept dry TO
prevent them from rusting. Rust
can eat through metals and cause
the food inside the can to spoil.
There is special treatment need
ed by home-dried fruits and vege-
tables. These should be stored in
tight, moisture-proof containers and
kept in cool, dark, dry place. Miss
Jones advises that homemakers
check their dried products frequent
ly to make certain they are kept
dry and that they are not damaged
by weevils or other pests.
Home processed quick-frozen foods
need place in the freezing COM
partment of a mechanical refrig-
orator, and they should be kept there
until they are to be used. They
must be kept frozen solidly, Miss
Jones says, and unless refrigeration
is constant they should not be kept
too long. Once frozen foods have
thawed, they spoil quickly, and they
should not be refrozen.

Chickens Pose Problems

Getty farmers who 60 in for rails
ing chickens with their victory gar
dens-a new trend in some commu-
nities-are posing new problems for
city councils, according to the
American Municipal association.
South Pasadena, Calf, for exam
pie, has adopted a new ordinance
limiting householders to maximum
of IL hens and so baby chicks-but
no ROSTERS. Chickens must be
penned at least so feet from the
nearest neighbours dwelling, and
baby chicks must be disposed OF
when they become four months old.

Duramold Process Utilities
Plywood for Army Aircraft

The Duramold process of utilizing
bonded plywood as a substitute for
aluminium in plane construction, de-
veloped several years ago by the
Fairchild Engine & Airplane cor
poration, has already resulted in
saving tons Of the strategic metal in
the production of the firms new AT
IA yankee Doodle" training plane.
Each skin section is produced
complete and ready to fit to the
fuselage or wing in a couple of
hours. Strips of thin wood veneer
are laid on the inside surface of
large steel dies. After laying up the
first layer Of strips, bonding glue on
a base paper is placed on top Of it
and covered by another layer of
veneer strips placed at a 90-degree
angle with the preceding layer. This
process is repeated until the neces-
sary layers for the particular skin
have been laid out. The inside
of the die is covered by q rubber
composition blanket and subjected
to a vacuum at either end, thus
exhausting the air from between the
alternate layers Of veneer and glue.
The die is then rolled into huge
pressure chamber where it is SUBJ
jected to high steam pressure and
heat for several minutes. At the
conclusion of this operation the shell
or section of the skin is removed
from the die, perfectly formed and
fused together.

Busy Bees

About 100000 pounds of honey
and 3,380,000 pounds of beeswax
were produced in the United States
in 1912. This production of honey
was 81 per cent smaller than the
crop of 226, 00O, 900 pounds produced
in 1941. Although the number OF
hives on hand at the beginning Of
the main honey flow in 1912 was 10
per cent greater than in 1941, and
bloom was abundant, frequent rains
over most of the country kept the
bees confined to their hives during
much of the honey harvesting peri
cd, resulting in the smallest honey
crop for many years.

Tire Care Needed to Keep
Farm School Buses Rolling

Whether many rural children at
tend school next fall may depend
largely on how we'll school bus driv-
ers observe ODT conservation poll
cies, Joseph B. Eastman, director
Of the Office of Defense Transporta-
ton, warns.
ITO reduce mileage, each bus
should be stationed overnight near
the point where the first pupil boards
the bus in the morning and should
be parked close to the school during
school hours" Eastman says.
1T should be noted that the word
Should rather than Shall has been
used in this recommendation. We
understand that in many cases
garages are not available at the end
Of the route and at the school build
ing. which might make this plan
impracticable. However, many
drivers take the bus home and then
let it stand overnight in the barn
lot We also understand that in
many cases the school bus is used
during the day for worker transpor-
tation, and this would not permit the
bus to remain at the school building.
1.-THE recommendation, however, is
quite important because it will re-
duce the number of bus miles by as
much as so per cent. On many
routes the driver takes the children
to school and drives home at 9 a. M,
drives back to school at p. m,
takes the children home, and then
drives to his own home. The num-
Der of empty miles is approximate
ly equivalent to the number of miles
with pupils under such a plan. If
the empty miles could be elimi
mated, the bus tires would provide
pupil transportation for twice as
many school days."

Use Farrow Quarters

Using narrowing quarters success
sively for different groups of sows
and their litters is one method of
increasing pork production, the Uni
versity of Illinois college of agricul-
ture says. On some farms the same
quarters are used for different lots
of sows at intervals Of about two
months, so that when one lot of pigs
is ready for weaving, the next soWs
to farrow are moved in. Two or
three groups of soWs, each having
two litters a year, will produce from
four to six lots of pigs of as many
different ages on some Of these
farms.
