soon De Llme TO SET QUO SHRUBS and
trees, both deciduous and evergreen.
In planting evergreens, it is well
to get them into the ground as early
in the spring as possible since they
must be well rooted before hot
weather sets in. We cannot very
well remove leaves to cut down
evaporation so we should plant them
as early as possible. Mid-March isl
not too early to. set them out. al,
though the ground may be too wet
to work and we shall have to wait.
In planting evergreens, we should
try to incorporate humus in some
form, compost or peatmoss, in the
planting hole. 1t will store moisture
near the roots and help to assure
their survival. In addition, the
peatmoss makes the soil acid, con-
dition that most evergreens favor.
But most important. Is its water
holding capacity which greatly in
creases the supply Of moisture in
the soil where the roots can get it
as needed.
A second point In planting ever
greens, is to see that in most situa-
tions the soil is not mounded up
around the crown, but rather that
there is a slight depression into
which the water will run. This per-
mits the rainfall to soak down into
the planting hole. This is especially
important for hemlocks and hollies.
Holly leaves should be removed as
far as possible to reduce evaporation
until the roots are well established
Where this is done they will usually
make satisfactory growth without
the removal of any substantial por-
ton of their branches.
If the evergreens are being planted
in an exposed situation, one where
strong winds sweep, it is well to
erect a burlap shade which will
protect them from both the sun and
the wind.
In selecting evergreens for the
yard, it Is well to remember that
the jumpers will tolerate a hotter
dried situation than most other
KINDS. Ine yeWS, DOxWood ana
hemlocks do well in both sun and
shade and thus are most satisfac-
tory for a hedge that extends into
shady spots as well as full sun. The
hollies like shade but will thrive
in sun if not too exposed.
Evergreens seldom thrive in pock-
cts where they do not get some air
circulation. The redspider is often
times injurious to them in such
situations. Although this pest is
seldom troublesome in cool shady
places.
In transplanting evergreens 1t is
well to prune them to compensate
for loss of roots. Nearly all kinds
of evergreens may and should be
pruned to stimulate new growth and
to keep them compact. The ex-
ceptions are the spruce and the fir,

they have q central leader and any
injury to 1t destroys their symmetry
Pruning Of the other kinds, however,
keeps them compact and Is usually
necessary to keep them from out
growing their situation.
In selecting evergreens for the
home grounds. 1t is well to choose
those whose habit Of growth is In
keeping with the place where they
are to be used. Some kinds may
be kept to low level while others
tower 20, 80 or more feet into the
air. Some Of the strong growers
can be kept sheared to a lower height
but it is more desirable to choose
kinds that are not such strong
growers.
Most gardeners concentrate on
the narrow-leaved evergreens, over
looking the many towering and
berried kinds. The rhododendrons
azaleas, cotoneasters, firethorn
Oregon hollygrape (Mahonia), An
dromeda, ETC., are attractive in foli-
age and flower or fruit. They are
highly desirable for fariation OF
foliage. Then there are such de-
lightful shrubs as the abelia, a semi
evergreen, laurel, leucothoe, mag
nolia and elaeagnus (Russian olive)
All are being grown and enjoyed
in the Washington area and deserve
wider consideration In selecting ma
terials for the home garden.
1t Is time to check the dahlias
cannas and other bulbs. If they
have begun to shrivel, moisture is
needed. If too wet, rotting may be
taking place and they will need to
be dried of a bit. Inspection at
this time may save them.
In ordering flower and vegetable
seeds, select varieties known to
thrive in this area. Some varieties
have been bred for cooler climates
than ours, some thrive best in
lighter soils. A check on local ex-
periences may avoid failure and
disappointment.
X
The soil mixture for starting
seeds should be full of humus and
low in fertility. Save wen-rotted
manure for the fiat into which the
seedlings will be transplanted. This
is well Illustrated by the recent
demonstrations of how well seeds
may be started in sphagnum moss
which has almost no plant food
in 1t.

promote the growth of Communism
If the people of the United States
will only take an active interest in
preserving our democracy, which has
made the United States the great
est and most prosperous nation OF
earth, there will be no danger OF
Communism ever taking root here
After the wars with Germany
and Japan are won we shall see
whether Russia will keep her prom
ises in the matter of holding free
elections In the liberated countries
II she should fail in these promises
or fail to give evidence that they
will be faithfully kept, then the
United States should decline to give
her any financial assistance for her
economic rehabilitation until her
promises are fulfilled.
If, however, Russia should thus
fail, even so, we should cooperate
with her upon matters of common
concern although we may abhor her
theology and methods. During the
time Of the czars, oppressors though
they WE'RE, We maintained diplo-
matte relations with them. The
same is true of Hitler's Germany
until shortly before she declared
war upon us. II we could do those
things in the years that have gone
we can remain friendly with Com
munistic Russia so long as she does
not threaten the American way OF
life that we know.
We all hope and pray that this Is
the last world war that this earth
shall ever know. We hope that the
measures agreed upon against Ger
many, and later, I hope, to be
agreed upon against Japan, together
with United Nations agreement
at San Francisco to which we shall
be a party, will bring nearer the
day when there indeed shall be

bring Communism to the entire
world. 1t is possible, but not prob
able, that she may do this, but be-
fore we would be in danger she
would have to prepare the ground
for her idealogy.
The liberty that the American
people enjoy is as much unknown
in Russia as it is in Germany. Rus
STA has a benevolent dictatorship
which improves the material well
being of its people but destroys
their individual liberties. That the
Russian people, as whole, are sat
isfied with this dictatorship, Is, I
think, true but should it be other
wise the people Of Russia will never
gain their freedom so long as Com
munism exists.
Too much credit cannot be given
to the Russian people, especially the
Ukranians, for their magnificent
stand against the Germans and the
vigor and crushing power of their
counteroffensives. This, however,
should not blind us to the essential
difference between Communism and
democracy.
Russia Has Been Aided.
We should freely acknowledge
that in fighting for her own preser-
walton Russia has fought for us as
well, but we should also remember
that had it not been for the war
materials which we have sent her,
costing us many billions of dollars
Russia might have been defeated
by Germany. Neither should we
forget that in our war with Japan
Russia has as great stake in the
outcome as have the United States
and Great Britain and yet she re-
mains neutral giving us no help.
1t is unfortunately true that we
have some leaders who, while dis
avowing Communism, and giving lip
service to democracy, are at heart
Communistic in their ideas, or do
not realize that their impractical
are preparing the ground
for Communistic growth. 1t is also
true that abuses by organized wealth
