New Law Requires
Life Preservers

HELENA - After July /, all
boats operating on any Montana
waters must be equipped with
some type of life preserver for
each occupant of the boat, the
Montana Fish and Game Depart
ment advised today.
This law, passed by the 1855
legislature, specifies that any de-
vice capable of floating an in
dividual is acceptable. This would
include life jackets, floating cush-
ions, Mae Vests, or even inflated
inner tubes.
Life jackets need not be worn,
but all devices must be readily
available for emergency use, a De-
partment spokesman said.
A fine of not over $1,000 may
be assessed violators, and all Mon
tana peace officers are authorized
to enforce the regulation.
1t is not the intent of the law
to create a hardship on boating
enthusiasts, the spokesman said
but because of the large number
of droWnings each year, some pre-
ventive measure was obviously
necessary.

BOHEMIAN - The lilac is one ~
our more popular tall shrubs
Their ability to flower profuseIv
the wonderful fragrance Of the
blossoms and their ease of cu1t,re
are points favoring the popularity
of this shrub. One of the main
drawbacks is the fact that most ~
the species do not give good fall
color.
Although there are as MANY &c
$50 varieties listed by nurservmen
in America, it is unfortunate that
greater number of these var
ieties are not used in Montana
Many OF the varieties are o,1ite
hardy, and with proper selection
one could extend both the color
range, and the season over which
they bloom. In fact, some Of the
late blooming kinds might fill an
important place in areas in Mont
ana where late spring frosts are
a frequent hazard.
Pruning is one of the important
practices in producing abundant
blooms on lllacs. Many varieties of
the common lilac send up numer-
GUS suckers and if these are not
removed, they compete with the
parent plant for available nutri-
ents, weaken it, and reduce its DO
tential ability to produce flowers.
The correct pruning practice is to
remove all except a few suckers
at the base of tn e plant. A few
young sucker shoots are then al
lowed to develop to take the place
of old branches when they begin
to appear too straggly and leggy.
Following this renewal method of
pruning, the shrub will always re-
tain young, vigorous appearance.
If all the young shoots are contin-
ually removed, the bush grows
tall and leggy and does not pre-
sent a beautiful appearance in the
shrub border.
One practice suggested for the
quick renewal of an old lilac bush
is to remove one-third of the old
branches each year, allowing a.
bout the S a m number of new
shoots to replace them. Continue
this practice over three years, and
the shrub will have regained its
youthfulness and vigor. More
drastic treatment is the entire re-
moval of the old branches at one
time. In removing old branches
and young shoots, cut them back
fairly close to ground level. An
other important practice is to re-
move the flower clusters before
they 60 to seed, cutting them ou1
just below the blossom cluster.
A few good single and double
lowered varieties comprising all
color classes are: Vestale, Edith
Cavell, DeMiribel, Marechal, Pres
Lincoln, Oliver de Series, Jacque.
Callot, Victor Lemoine, Lucie Bal
tet, Katherine Havemeyer, Congo
Paul Thirion, Ludwig Spaeth anc
Adelaide Dunbar. These are al
varieties of the Common lilac spe.
cies and are popularly known a:
French hybrids. All have in vary.
ing degrees the bad suckering ha-
bit of the Common lilac species.
Some good early hybrids are S
dilatata, Necker, Lamartine, Poe.
ahontas, Louivois, Martesquieu
Vauban, and Evangeline. Some ex.
cellent late blooming lilac hybrid
are Lutece, Isabella, Coral, Hia.
watha, Royalty, and Donald Wy
man.. These latter are mostly by
birds of the Hungarian or the lat
lilac. They do not sucker like var
ieties of the Common lilac. Be

BilIv Graham Welcome
In Russia, MoIik Says
BY GORDON THOMAS

North American Newspaper Alliance
LONDON, May 21.-American
evangelist Billy Graham has said
he wants to preach in Russia.
And today the Russian Embassy
in London said he would be
most welcome"
Ambassador Jacob Malik told
a reporter, II think he's quite
a man" Mr.. Malik said he has
seen Mr.. Graham. who has been
conducting revival services here,
on television.
Mr.. Malik said he'll personally
do all he can to see that the
application goes through If Mr..
Graham applies for a visa. He
made Just one stipulation: In the
Soviet Union, "Mr. Graham will
have to stick to religion"
Informed the Russians we're
willing if he wished to press for
his stated ambition of a religious
mission to Moscow. Mr.. Graham
interposed the objection That his
crusades have always been con-
Quoted on invitation from
churches. He said he wanted to
continue this system.
He'd like an invitation from
the Soviet churches themselves
before he made the next mcve,
the evangelist declared.
AS to sticking to religion that's
fine, Mr.. Graham said.
II would bring to the people
Of the Soviet Union the same
message as ! bring to everyone
else," he declared. His message,
he said, would be: Repent be-
fore it's too late"
At the Russian Embassy, off,
cials termed such a preaching
theme, excellent" =.
THAT sort of talk could only
do good. Graham is a man Of
the people," one official declared.
