covering, try to see that it does not
touch the plant.
1t is time now to start winter pro-
lection OF any plants that require it.
Most plants in the open 80 not need
protection until frost starts to form
a crust on the soil. But it is not
advisable to wait until a cold snap
occurs and the ground freezes to a
depth of more than 2 or 3 inches.
The purpose of winter protection is
to keep the ground slightly frozen
and to prevent it from freezing to a
depth that would cut off the water
supply of the plants.
The mild days that sometimes oc-
cur in early winter provide a good
opportunity for pruning. Shrubs or
trees should never be pruned when
the wood is frozen, though, fo,
cuts in the frozen wood may
damage cells and make a NEAR
wound. But since wood is not frozen
except in severely cold weather, il
Is safe to say that pruning may be
done any time the weather is fit fol
working.
The procedure in the winter prun.
ing of shrubs is first to remove deac
canes close to the ground and ther
take out from a third to half O.
| the oldest canes. The age of the
cane can be determined by the con-
.dition of the bark Remove any

IN copper or brass. You can find
them in several sizes, from the small
yellow hips of the multif1ora to the
very large ones found on some of
the rugosas and Prairie roses. They
are difficult to handle because of
the thorns. but, if we'll anchored,
the grace Of the stems and the color
OF the hips and thorns make an
interesting wintertime arrangement.
One of the most useful berried
shrubs is the firethorn CPyracan-
thai. The hardest and one most
commonly grown in this area is
Pyracantha Coccinea var. lalandi.
The flrethorns are evergreen and
quite thorny. The red-orange ber-
ries make very good arrangement.
The rose-colored coralberry makes
"a graceful bouquet because of the
dropping habit of it's slender
branches. A close relative, the
snowberry, is also useful for winter
bouquets.
Callicarpa purpurea with its small
punches of purple berries which
somewhat resemble tiny punches of
grapes adds a different color in a
spray of graceful line.
The commonly grown barberry
and privets furnish other shrubs
useful for indoor use. The entire
holly family add several choices.
The American holly has bright red
berries, the inkberry dlex glabra)
has shiny black fruits, and the yau-
pom Il. vomitoriA has orange
scarlet fruits. The viburnum family
also offers variety.
The cotoneaster horizontalis or
rockspray is an evergreen in ordi-
nary winters. If the weather is
severe the leaves may turn red and
drop off. The small red berries and
very small, closely set leaves make
the rockspray different.

for fall planting it is better to make

Himmler ordered concentration

This was disclosed yesterday by

De Gaune Presents
Program Of Reforms
To French Assembly
By the Associated Press.

PARIS, Nov. 23.-Gen. Charles
de Gaulle presented to the Con-
. Stituent Assembly today a pro-
gram calling for quick nation
alization of Frances credit, elec-
tricity and insurance industries.
He called for reforms in public
service and administration, judicial
: reforms and constitutional change
in the military structure of the ma
tional defense. The general asked
for "modernization" of mining, in
uustry and agriculture and said the
franc must be revalued so French
money can be established on an in
disputable base"
Gen. de Gaulle declared the threat
of atomic destruction was hanging
over the world and French foreign
policy would be directed toward a
role of harmony among the nations
of Western Europe,
He said Frances policy would not
be one of blocs, but one of "co-
operation" This, he said, did not
exclude France from signing ac-
cords with specific countries. He
recalled the French Russian treaty
of 1914 and described Russia as
a country like ourselves, primarily
interested in preventing in the fu-
ture any Germanic menace"
He said that in the spirit of this
treaty. France is trying to foster
good relations with the United States
and was discussing possible fu-
ture accord on questions of COM
mon. interest with Great Britain.
Discussing his domestic program,
Gen. de Gaulle reminded deputies
that the war cost us half of our
national fortune"
He gave assurance that the French
program of imports would be con-
tinued ito the full extent allowed
by our financial accords with other
states, notably the United States"
Gen. de Gaulle said his govern
ment soon would propose a more
extensive program for the recon-
struction of France and her colonies.
