words, did the Hagues, the Han- negans and the Flynns insist on Senator Truman, or were they obeying orders from their chief.
 Perhaps the most succinct an- swer is to state that, when the Pennsylvania delegation first bal- loted as between Truman and Wallace, Postmaster General Frank Walker of Scranton leaned over to Attorney General Francis Riddle of Philadelphia and asked him how he, Walker, should vote. Riddle was for Wallace. But af- terwards, Walker telephoned the President, and from then on he not only voted for Truman, but telephOned almost every chairman of State delegations urging, plead ing that they vote for Truman too.
 There were five members of
 the Roosevelt Cabinet in Chi- cage, some of whom had served
 with him for I2 long, arduOus years. But Le did not eQln-
 municate with one of them ex- eept Walker. On the other hand. Mayer Kelly Of Chicago dropped word that he had talked to the President about ten times. Han negan and Flynn talked to him almost daily.
 Here is the detailed, inside story of what happened:
 When FDR conferred at White House dinner with Ed Flynn, Bob flanagan, Mayor Kelly and other party bosses on Tuesday Of the week before the convention, they all agreed that they did not want Henry Wallace. The President shared this view. even though he had already promised Wallace an 'if ! were . delegate" letter of endorsement.
 It was also decided at the White House dinner that the two best Vice Presidential candidates were Senator Truman of Missouri and Supreme Court Justice Wil- liam o. Douglas, Nothing was then decided as to which was prefer able,

How Injurious
Are Ants?

4 NTS are rarely listed among
- the insects injurious 10
vegetable crops, probably be-
cause in many cases they do no
real damage, though they may
be annoying. However, in some
instances they feed on and in
lure seriously the leaves. stems,
roots or fruits of growing
vegetables. Thus they definitely
become pests.
Ants, by their tunneling around
the roots of plants may cause
serious injury because of excess
Sive drying on the soil. Through
these tunnels, also, the ants
transport root aphids to roots of
suitable plants on which the
aphideS will feed. Other types
of aphidS are "pastured' on the
leaves of plants. From these
COWS the ants gather certain
secretions which they use for
food.
Since aphlds are among the
most troublesome of insect pests
and affect many plants. their
peculiar relationship to ants. as
described above. is an excellent
reason for controlling any large
colonies of ants found anywhere
in the garden.

Disbud Peonies
For LARGER Blooms

IF YOU want TO have huge
- peony blooms this year, then
it's time TO disbud. BY this is
meant the removal of the
lateral or side buds from each
bloom stalk to allow all the
food to 60 TO the terminal or
end bud, thus producing one
huge bloom instead of more
numerous smaller ones.
The disbudding must be done
with care, using the fingers and
nails. First look at the stalk
and find the bud at the tip.
This is generally larger than
the rest and is the one that is
to he left TO grow.

Grow Family Favorites

Some one else told me. AT
least I've learned not to spray
the lady bugs, meaning she
had found out that they were
beneficial insects. rather than
harmful ones. a very impor-
tant discovery. this!
The trend seems to he towards
simplification, towards dropping
many varieties of tomatoes and
concentrating on the one best
liked last season, towards grow
ing only the vegetables the
family will eat, towards wider
spacing for easier work. towards
more sensible methods of Gull
ture and above all, towards in
creased production in the same
space. by means of additional
fertilizer through the growing
season and by use OF companion
and succession crops-both of
which were nebulous ideas in
1943 and have become sound
common sense in 1914.

Hardening Of

Hardening off is really accus-
toming the seedlings to the
outdoor atmosphere and condi-
tons by gradually exposing
them 10 these. Given a room
in the house with seedlings
growing nicely. a window might
be opened little for several
hours during the warm part of
the day.
The next day it may he
opened wider and possibly for
a longer period. Both opening
and time may be increased
daily and poor weather may be
included as well as fair Water
given should be decreased in
amount as exposure increases.

Troublesome Practice

Many folks planted vast
quantities Of the kind OF vege-
tables that may be cut several
times during the season such
as SWISS chard This boner Is
easy 10 correct and they're
certainly doing it this year.
Thinning was another trou-
bleSome practice - not because
beginners begrudged the time
and labor It takes. but because,
As one woman told me. Il Just
hated TO pull up those cute little
carrots and throw them away.
II seemed 50 cruel" In reality,
she was being cruel TO herself,
as not thinning defeated her
purpose in growing the carrots
since her crop from them, If
left unthinned, would be so
much reduced.
I'm not growing half the
kinds OF vegetables l grew last
year" said another gardener,
because my family wouldn't
eat them after l grew them"
This seems 10 have been a
common complaint and goes to
prove that il pays to plant just
a little of new kind of vege-
table TO see If IL makes hit.

Bit by Bit

If there is also a door in the
room. that might be opened
about a week from the start of
the process, or perhaps a second
window might be used with
the first. When the plants are
used TO outside air all day. keep
the windows open at night.
Then one warm day transfer
the flats or boxes in which the
seedlings are growing to the
garden, protecting them the
first night or two in case it
seems cool. A few days of this
exposure and they will be ready
TO transplant.
The same process should be
followed for plants grown in a
coldframe, propplng the sash
open just bit to begin with,
then increasing the opening bit
by bit.
