Bulbs Planted This Fall
Give First Spring Flowers

Spring months are almost pure JOY
for garden lovers, who bring to the
feast of floral beauty an apprecia-
ton sharpened by the long monot-
ony of winter.
In the spring their efforts show a
higher average of success, free
from the disappointments which
come later, with the weeds, the in
sects, perhaps a drouth or other
difficulties.
Yet the average garden has little
to offer, compared with what it
might present in the first month
after the ground thaws. because
only one-third of all garden owners
plant the fall bulbs which bear the
first spring flowers. There are not
many of these and you do not need
many to delight you, since they
bloom when they have no rivals.
First to flower are the tiny white
snowdrops which would hardly be
noticed in June garden, but when
they peep through the melting snow,
they give us a thrill which the most
gorgeous peonies can hardly equal
later IN the season.
Snowdrops blossom when the
ground first thaws In spring. A
small group visible from a window
will richly reward you. After bloom
ing. they soon disappear and If the
bulbs are not disturbed they will
bloom for many years without atten-
ton.
Next after the snowdrops, how
long depending upon the weather,
scillas (blue squills> and glory Of
the snow (chionadoxas) appear,
both blue and Towering 50 freely
they carpet the ground with color.
Scillas spread by self seeding.
Weeks earlier than violets, they are
far superior for gardens, because
their foliage quickly disappears aft
er they flower and their tiny oulbs
offer no competition to companion
plants.
Crocuses blossom after the scillas
with blue, yellow and white flowers.
They come in white. blue and cur-
pie. and mixture gives a pleasing
effect.

Dancing Only Seems Fun
SAYS Its Master, Astoire

about his dancing, devoting hours
to a minor detail. Everything
must be right; he even inspects
minutely each pair of dancing
shoes. He rehearSes to the point
of drudgery for weeks on routines
and has been known to work on
a step far into the night as well
as on Sundays.
One reason Fred has remained
on top Is that he can be relied
upon to keep coming up with
fresh ideas and techniques. He's
careful never to repeat a dance
pattern. If he thinks he's dupli-
eating something he dashes to his
film library in which he has more
than $4,000 feet from his old
movies.
His amazing record runs through
% pictures. Betton Hutton is his
10th dancing partner. For the
records. the others are Joan Craw-
ford Chis first in Dancing Lady"
in 1889, Ginger Rogers with
whom he's danced mosD. Judy
Garland. Joan Fontaine. Harriet
Hoctor, Ann Miller. Dolores Del
Rio, Eleanor Powell, Rita Hay
worth, Joan Caulfield. Paulette
Goddard. Marjorie Reynolds, Joan
Leslie. Lucille Bremen and Olga
San Juan. Some surprises there,
eh?
Fred is his most rabid critic.
He's never happy with his output.
AS result, he Is Hollywood's top
Worrier. He'd love to do a straight
acting part without dancing. but
Is afraid to. Offered the Ernie
Pyle role in The Story of CT
joe" he was proud and elated,
but turned it down as too risky"
Well. as far as the public is con-
cerned, he'll continue dancing:
he's still the greatest in film his
tory, probably never will be
equaled Dy any one.
