Why Drought Kills
Trees; HOIU To SaUe
Them In Time

More trees dies from first having
been weakened by drought and
soaring summer heat than any
other single cause.
Fine fibrour roots wither and
die. Than a chain reaction sets in.
Wilt and deadwood appear in the
crown. More roots die. More dead
branches show up. Other troubles
and ailments pile up.
Inevitably, the killers borers
and deadly infections such as
Dutch elm disease - come in to
polish off the trees.
Each year, according to Don
Cantwell, area manager of the
Bartlett Tree Expert Company,
thousands of priceless shade trees
die from that first drought-induced
weakness.
Some like shallow-rooted dog
woods, birches and naples, oaks
growing on ridges, pines in un-
favorable locations may be half
killed or go completely out in
single season. But the majority
die of deep-seated accumulated eff
fects of the drought over several
years. This is why:
During IA of the last 16 years
rainfall has been below normal ov-
er the eastern half of the country.
Little by little the effects of the
drought pile up. Each year the
trees strength ebbs, ebbs, ebbs.
A sudden downpour during a dry
spell may perk up lawn, but the
water may never reach all the
trees root system. Even rainy
spring cannot counteract fully the
effects of a drought the year be-
fore.
A rootlet or twig that dies can
never be brought back to life. 1T
requires a lot of food and water
over the long pull to put forth a
twig and root replacement.
This is what tree owners should
do, especially during August and
September to keep drought effects
away from their priced tree:
3 1-Water them sufficiently when
ever possible.
Feed them literally. A drought
hit tree drains its reserve strength.
Feeding will help restore lost Wig
or, aid in laying down next years
buds, new wood and add to root
growth. Well fed trees always come
through drought better than un
fed ones.
3-Mulch where possible. Mulch
ing conserves soil water, prevents
the soil from becoming Overheated.
4-Prune out all dead and dying
branches, Pruning permits the
base of dead area to heal so that
the sap of tree can properly cir
culate upward and allow manufac-
tured food to flow downward to
trunk and roots.

EYE BANK STARTED

IOWA CITY, Iowa - up = This
states first Eye Bank is being es-
tablished at the State University of
Iowa Medical Center with the sup
port of Iowa Lions Clubs. The $50
plus Lions Clubs have already
raised more than $4,000 to get the
Eye Bank started.
1t will be under the direction of
DR.. Alison E. Braley, professor and
head of ophthalmology at the Uni
versity. 1t is primarily intended
to provide a clearing house for
corneas removed from the eyes of
persons who bequeath their eyes
for medical use after their deaths.
Iowa recently enacted a law per-
mitting the willing of parts of the
body for medical use.

Timely Reminders
On FLOlDer Gardens

Assistant County Agent Ralph P.
Barwick, offers these timely July
reminders on flowers and ornamen-
tails.
Water plants in window boxes
regularly. Soil in these boxes dries
out faster than that in the garden.
Give plants in window boxes a
monthly feeding.
The tops of newly planted snap
dragons, zininas, asters. marigolds
can be pinched or taken out to in
duce lateral branching. If speci-
men plants are wanted for flower
shows, pinch only once or not at
all and remove all side shoots so
that only one flower develops. If,
however, many blooms are desired,
then pinehing can be done sec
ond time, before the actual cutting
of the flowers takes place. Peren-
ials which have finished blooming
should be prevented from forming
seed by cutting off the faded
blooms.
A we'll planned flower garden
some times looks ill-kept when
clumsy or out-landish materials
are used to stake and tie the plants.
If wooden stakes are used keep
them shorter than the plants in or
der to not detract from the beauty
of the flower garden.
Hydrangeas, poinsettias and ILL
les held over in pots from last win
ter or from early holidays should
be placed outside either in the
same pot or planted in the soil.
Cut back the old stems to within
pa inches of the soil surface. Lily
bulbs when planted outside will
produce a flower again in late
summer or early fall.
Pot NUNS can be cut back after
Towering and planted outside.
These plants will flower again in
late summer since that is their
normal time of towering. Many of
these NUNS are hardy but still need
protection over winter.

dealing in an unspectacular but
efficient fashion with the-new prob
lens of rum-running and bootleg
ging.
In 1929 he was appointed state
prohibition commissioner, and in
1889 was made deputy collector of
internal revenue, serving under the
Roosevelt Administration until 1888.
The following year he was ap-
pointed a magistrate by Gov. Rich
ard G. McMullen but the next Sen
ate refused his confirmation and the
succeeding governor, Walter w. Ba-
con, appointed a man to replace
him. However, he won his legal
right to the office and served until
1912 when he left public life.
Headed Early Dry Fight
In 1918 Mr.. Boyce headed the
fight for local option which dried
up the state except for the city of
Wilmington. While member of
the 1917 General Assembly he spon-
sored liquor legislation which be-
came law and remained in effect
until national prohibition succeeded
it,
A graduate of the University of
Virginia, he was a member of Trim

Delaware Railroad. Recent cases
Of sickness have failed to soften

fight must go on. they say. Again
we say and 1t has been pointed
out before, that the only way to
draw the patronage back is to
run trains on time and instruct
the railroad workers to be very
courteous to the public. Some
sort of program by the Railroads
should win back the approval of
the public. 1t is still pointed out
that regular train, kept on
time, would win a great applause
from the public. Even a one-car

that no one can imagine the plea
sure they get from walk cover
ing ten or twelve miles per day.
They usually visit some shrine or
a historical spot and say they find
Delaware as rich with these land
marks as any other state. 1t was
the same in the old days. Sets of
people would get dressed up for
a ride and then get out the OK
cart for a trip of ten to twelve
miles and they said that they en-
joyed the slow moving outfit too.
But all were very happy and in
those days nobody seemed to have
a worry in the wide world. So
there was no confusion of the
slightest kind.
Two boys living near st. Anne's
Church report that they trapped
four muskrats during the past
winter. They set their traps in a
small stream where it extended
through the woods. 1t was quite
an experience for them and the
knowledge thus gained should
help them in the future. They
also caught a full-grown fox as
it travelled on the bank of the
stream.
What about baseball? The
king of games is now in full
swing and drawing immense
crowds to see it. Very good

pitchers had the power to win
every game in the old days but
they are scarce now.

JUNEAU, Up A new inter
party controversy developed to-
day as the lawmakers met for a
special legislation session.
Democratic leaders argued Gov.
Heintzleman had no authority to
restrict the deliberations to three
days. Once such a session has
been called, they contended, it
can continue for not to exceed
80 days, at its own pleasure.
The governor issued the call
under the Organic Act provision
for an extraordinary session in
the face Of public danger and
necessity. The act carries the
phrasing that the governor can
call such a session "for a period"
not exceeding 80 days.
The governor was given the
legal advice, it was learned, that
"for a period" meant he could
call it for a specific period.
All OP4IA4OIl Ii OAil lA1dShd AILy .
Gen. j. Gerald Williams Satur-
day said the governor could not
restrict the field Of legislation
which a special session could con-
slider
The governor specified three
subjects for attention, as follows:
First, general appropriations
act to provide money to pay the
territory'S bills starting April /,
for the new biennium.
Secondly, to consider a bill to
provide a five-member Employ
ment Security Commission to be
appointed by the governor, and
effective Immediately upon en-
actment.
Thirdly, to consider a bill to
authorize a loan Of up to a million
dollars from the territorial trea-
sury to tide over the unemplOy-
ment insurance fund, which ran
dry this weekend, except for

Discussions Start
For Big 4 Meeting
With Soviet Russia
BY ARTHUR GAvsHoN

LONDON, R- Foreign Secre-
tary Sir Anthony Eden disclosed
today Britain, the United States
and France have already begun
discussing arrangements for big
four meeting with Russia
Eden told the House of Com
mons this country is ready and
eager to discuss the future of Ger
many and Austria, disarmament
problems and European security
system with the Russians - now
that the French parliament has
approved the accords TO free and
rearm West Germany
Britain, he said proposed the
Allies should follow a procedure
Of consultation that will include
meetings of officials, then per
haps meetings of foreign minis
tiers and, "if all goes well meet
ings probably at other levels
also"
He did not elaborate on his
reference to meetings "at other
levels" The implication was that
one would be "at the summit"
1t has long been the assump-
ton here, although it has never
been officially stated that if and
when Eden takes over the ma
tons leadership from Prime Min
lister Churchill he will quickly set
out to meet President Eisenhower.
Eden has long been the heir APP
parent to the leadership of the
Conservative government.
He reminded Parliament today
Of a pledge he gave it on the
subject Of big four conference
only IA days ago.
He said then, once the London
and Paris treaties freeing and re-
arming the West Germans have
been ratified, Britain will want
to meet with the Soviets on the
main problems blocking a Euro
pean settlement between East and
West.
