This Week in the Garden

it seems almost impossible to
grow them in this area without
protection. Spray the trunks
with 5 or 10 per cent DDT
solution. wetting the bark thor
oughly to a height Of three or
four feet above the ground. In
three weeks repeat this spray
ing and again after q similar in
terval. This has proved an easy
and effective method of protec-
ton.
The latest word from the
Plant Disease Survey is that the
late blight Of tomatoes and po-
tatoes has not been reported In
this area. although the weather
has been favorable the past two
weeks for it to spread.
I'm planting daffodils (Septem-
ben is the month"; it is well to
select varieties of several types
to insure a longer season of
bloom. The trumpets are, the
first Of the larger lowered types
to bloom, while the poets are
among the last. Not only is it
desirable to have q long season
Of bloom. but a variety Of forms
and colors adds to the interest
OF the spring display.
Correction About Merton Gross
In the article of lawn repair
the statement was made that
rust" plant disease Of Merton
Bluegrass had not been reported
in this area. We have since been
Informed that several years ago
1t was found on an underfed
planting of the Merton bluegress.
The informant stated that it
was his belief that rust is not
likely to be important on proper

It would appear that the BIZ
color trumpet daffodils are more
subject to basal rot" than are
the other segments of the mar
cissus family. In other words,
they are least likely to be long
lived dwellers in the border. Some
OF the newer bi-color varieties
seem to have more resistance to
this disease. However. most DAFT
fodils require reasonably well
drained soil. It is essential for
varieties highly susceptible to
basal rot. w. H. Y.

It's Ludwig's Own Idea
Beethoven's Violin Musterwork
Is Recorded With Solo Piano
By james 6. Deone

Put a new S. p. A. recording
of Beethoven's Opus 81 on your
photograph. invite in listen
er or two and fun Is bound to
follow.
AS any good Beethovenite
knows, Opus 81 is the violin
concerto, and the first notes Of
S. P. AS recording will lull
almost any guest into comfort
able expectation of the .famil-
lar. But after about three min
utes change will be noted.
Your listener will perk up his
ears, and exclamations-and
explanations-will be in order.
For emanating from the spin
ming grooves will be the sound,
not of a solo violin, but of a
solo piano.
S. P. AS record is Beetho-
ven's own piano arrangement
of his violin masterwork.
form in which it is virtually
unknown. It makes interesting
listening from the musical
standpoint. for of course there
is more than merely the same
collection Of notes, which
would not suffice for the key
board instrument. Among the
changes Is the addition Of a
tympani accompaniment for
the cadenza Of the first move
ment. To my ears, however,
the work remains essentially
violinistic, and this version
has chiefly novelty value, If Of
a rather diverting sort.
Helen Schnabel, daughter
in-law Of the late Artur, and
a Viennese orchestra led by
F. Charles Adler give the mu-
sic an adequate although GER
tainly not exciting perform
ance, and the recorded sound,
though a bit heavy at the
lower end, is quite respectable.
S. P. A. chooses to label the
piece as the piano concerto No.
6. which is a trif1e misleading,
especially since No. 5 was fin
ished at least a year or so
later. One decided flaw: the
disc is recorded approximately
a semitone high in pitch.
Labor of Love
Beethoven'S excursion into
the field Of drama, in the form
Of his incidental music for
Goethe's "Egmont," was a
project dictated by more than
expediency or the pocketbook:
it was something of a labor of
love. And Westminster has
now produced a recorded COL
lection of these musical cpl
sodes which can safely be re-
garded as the first wholly &C
ceptable one available, al
though it is not without Short
comings.
Beethoven was commissioned
by a Viennese theater manager
to compose the "Egmont" mu-
sic, which is called for by the
dramatist. and he found the
tragedy of the martyred Meth
erlands patriot. who died for
his eSpousal of democracy. so
congenial that he refused pay
ment. What some enterprising
recording company ought to
give us is an English perform
ance of the complete play
with-muSic. but short of that
the present disc supplies quite
a bit to sink the teeth into.
There are 10 individual
pieces. One Of them, of course,
is the well-known overture.
There are two songs sung by
Clara, Egmont's sweetheart
(the real-life Egmont had O
wife and 10 children, but
Goethe didn't mind that both
quite effective though brief.

The purely orchestral sections
are at least as interesting.
These include four entr'actes
of varying moods and a choice
subdued bit which accom-
panies Clara's suicide. Finally
comes some elaborate tonal
painting during which we hear
Egmont soliloquizing in his
cell, first invoking sleep, after
wards defying the tyranny that
confronts him with extinc-
ton. with between the two
episodes some martial music
depicting a dream of victory.
Episode or not, this adds
up to music worth owning.

sound, in this case splendid.

small and big fry for some

toises, jackasses and all the
rest of the menagerie sound
more rambunctious and de-

tissement" is on the back, and
its gay take-off on Mendels-
sohn's wedding march has
never sounded saucer.
Saint-Saens' third violin

more frequent concert hearings
than it does, proves a splen-

Now that the dahlias are about
to put on their fall display we
should begin to disbud. The
fewer the blooms permitted to
develop the larger they will be.
However, it is not necessary to
disbud for a good display in the
garden. If disbudding is desired,
then the gardener should re-
move the side buds and retain
the terminal bud. The Towering
shoots that arise from the leaf
axis should also be removed SO
as to put the plants strength
into the terminal bud. If started
early enough the buds may be
removed with the fingers, but
after they have begun to grow,
a sharp knife is the best tool.

One of the questions uppermost

evil to exist in the world. Job faced

After detailing his experience he
suggests that every senator and

our penal institutions. If they did
have there would be sweeping re-

to which he was subjected by the
communists he had put behind pri-

Job.
