Eight Register TO
Have Plots PIowed

Eight people in Ypsilanti had
registered for blowing on neighbor-
hood lots for victory gardens when
the deadline for such registrations
came Saturday. II ia believed that
some delay on this phase Of victory
gardening was because OF poor
weather conditions which have
made blowing as yet impossible.
The deadline for these registrations
may be extended.
Twenty-Five people have applied
for community victory garden plots
but here again a delay is being
caused by the cold weather In both
cases registration is about normal
for this time OF the year.
