On the Air

That wag who asked for five
minutes of silence when the
singer solicited requests has been
discovered. He is working for
Serta, a firm which makes mat
tresses, as you hardly need to
be told unless you have banished
all radio and television equip
ment to the attic.
If he isn't working there, at
least he is known to somebody
around the Serta premises. Serta
has just signed a. contract with
VITO. covering what is be-
lieved to be the largest block
of TV time any station ever
disposed Of at one fell swoop.
1t is, in fact. some $500, 900
worth of time that Serta has
signed for, though it is not pay
ing the card rater-for 1t. What
it actually is buying is So
week series of spot announce
ments at sign-off and sign-on,
thus sponsoring a nightly
nine land -one-half hours of si-
lence.
There is no knowing what this
might lead to. Silence is some-
thing of a rare commodity these
days. Some sponsors may dis
cover that they can win more
friends by presenting 80 minutes
of silence than by presenting
that filmed situation comedy
with the phoney laughs.
There is not too much danger
of silence spreading to the prime
evening hours, however. No
sponsor would pay the Glass A
rate for quiet air when he could
provide it in the daytime for a
cheaper fee, reducing his cost
per-thousand non-viewing nom
listeners.
The only real chance for
silence lies in the possibility that
some advertising wizard will
realize that sponsorship of dead
air on three channels would
mean that all TV addicts would
have nothing to watch but his
show on the fourth. And even
If silence should spread to other
programming areas it couldn't
last. Some sponsor would be
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1954-08-16

more positive way Of insuring
silence. If you turn all the knobs
on the front of your TV set as
far to the left as possible, it is
sure to settle into blank faced
quiet.
PUBLIC PROPERTY - A
reader has passed along a small
legal bombshell-a hot-hand
grenade at the very least. 1t is
a concept of the law which could
play hob with the entertainment
world, where music and dramas
in the public domain have the
sweet lure of no royalties to pay.
Here Is what Mrs. S. w. Of Van
Buren, street NV. has to say
about that:
"a second major irritant Tin
broadcast advertising) is the
adoption of an old favorite tune
as theme song to sing the merits
Of a product. On this there
really ought to be a law. The
very purpose of the copyright
law was to encourage the build
ing of our cultural standards by
inviting composers and inventors
not only to vigorously pursue
their genius but to quickly pub
lish the fruits of it for public
benefit. The law serves to pro-
tect them and give them an adj
vantage for a certain period Of
time as encouragement.
However, the ultimate aim
was to enrich the public with
the result of their efforts after
the monopoly expired. We fee
that such compositions for which
the monopoly has expired be-
long to the public and should not
be allowed to be spoiled by
adapting the song or even most
of a poem, ETC., to commercial
advertising of a private product
That practice is worse than
picking flowers in the park.
That property belongs to me. the
people, and once commercialized
to the merit of one product is SC
despoiled as to be worthless to
the public. :"

so ago, the sponsors do irritate
the prospective customers more
often than the sponsors realize

to be 'hands off" 1t thrives like
sage brush without any of your
loving attention.
Another carefree annual that ig-
nores drought is the Gaillardia. 1t
is one of the most dependable per-
formers under all conditions of all
ANIMALS grown in the state.
1t is easy to understand why, when
you see it clarifying the prairies and
woodlands in June in its wild state.
It is a true native of Montana and
one of our most beautiful wild
flowers. The cultivated variety is
superior in color and it also comes
in the double form. Both the single
and double range in shades from
yellow to maroon, but more often
in combination of yellow and red.
Something Special
If you are looking for something
very special, plant some Salpiglos-
sis seed. 1t is often called velvet
flower, trumpet flower or painted
tongue. 1t is an independent beauty
that also resents too much pamper-
ing. 1t is sure to bewitch you with
its gorgeous array of colors, its 212
inch trumpet shaped, velvet-like
blooms and its ease of cultivation.
1t comes in almost every color
deep purple, dark rich rust, pale
cream, true deep blue and black.
Regardless of its color, each bios
som is veined and penciled with
gold.

ANNUAL FLOWERS are best for
beginners for several reasons. They
are easy to cultivate, will create a
riot of color in the garden and the
expense of raising them is very
small You will be surprised and
delighted at what you can do with
a few cents worth of we'll chosen
annual flower seeds.
If you happen to be an on-the-
wing flower lover, you will find it
almost impossible to have any other
kind because of too frequent NOV
ing. However, if you alight in one
spot for only four to four and one
half months-from May 18th to Oc-
tober lit will be easy to have a
lovely, luxurious garden. That is
about the longest growing season
on can expect in Montana.
To be a successful gardener, you
must have some knowledge of eli
mate, soil and the seeds you are go
ing to plant. Reading horticultural
magazines will be of some help, but
your best sources of information are
the seed catalogs from good reliable
seed houses. Any of them will gladly
send you catalog at your request.
Naturally they want their seeds to
do well, so they give you the best
advice on planting and caring for
them. Follow their advice to the
letter and you can't go wrong-pro-
vided your soil is right.
Soil Can Be Problem
Soil, of course, can sometimes be
a problem in Montana. Particularly

Leaf mold is a fertilizer so it does
double duty, but sand, deficient in
natural chemicals helps only to
break down the stubborn sickness
of the clay and make it more work
able.
Preparation of the seed bed is of
major Importance. Spade the soil
about one foot deep, pulverize it
thoroughly, making sure there are
no Jumps left in it. Add a condi-
toner and fertilizer if necessary,

the reward of your efforts is very

Weed and Water
You must keep soil loose around
the plants, water sufficiently and
keep weeds pulled. Again, urge
you to consult your seed catalog
or packet for the amount of mois-
ture needed. Some flowers won't
need as much as others. For in
stance, nasturtiums will get even

the program, the theme of which is

Guest speakers will be Russell and
Mollie Smart of the University of

extensively on a mily relations.
There will be discussion sessions for
all groups.
