Some Plants
Need Winter
Mulch Cover

Like some people certain
plants of delicate nature can't
stand the cold. Give them an
overcoat, and they'll thank you
very mulch.
The mulch in point is the cover
ing over root areas that acts as
an overcoat and is the first line
of defense against frigid on.
slaughts. Now is the time to
apply this winter protection, ad
viSes J. Fl. Malboeuf, field repre-
sentative of the Davey Tree EX-
pert Co.
Such plants of doubtful hardi-
ness as boXwood, tender aZaleas
and firethorn demand this atten-
ton for survival. Any species
known TO suffer from winter
injury in local areas also require
similar safeguards.
Mulches are versatile. They
conserve moisture, maintain soil
temperature and retard frost
penetration. All this adds up to
minimizing freezing and tends TO
keep available moisture at a high
level.
Mulches Of peat moss, salt hay,
ground corn cobS and oak leaves
are all helpful provided trunks
and stem are protected from
mice and other rodents.
OF these, peat moss seems less
attractive to mice, which gnaw at
succulent bark and sometimes
fatally injure paintings. Corn
cob mulches usually contain
grain attractive to mice. Both
salt hay and leaves are apt to
be blown away unless in place
with evergreen boughs or clods
of earth. Oak leaves are more
resistant to deterioration and
have more staying power than
leaves of naples, elms and other
deciduous species.
For ultimate protection,
mulches must be spread over the
entire root area, roughly equiva-
lent to the branch spread. They
all have sad way of settling
under winter SHOWS and rains.
The weekend gardener VIII 0
hopes to provide a three-inch
covering had better start with
one five to six inches deep, par
ticularly if he is using leafy

MOUTH OF SENECA.

It seems that the world has
thrived on legend since its be-
ginning. Tired of everyday work.
drudgery, disillusioned by wars
and tragedies that have beset
men from earliest history.
people through the ages have
found secure escape in the poetic
lines given to legendary heroes
and heroines and the world of
make believe.
In the rugged mountains Of
West Virginia there exists, and
even grows, a fanciful legend Of
q beautiful Indian maid and her
many and eager brave suitors.
It happened many years ago.
and here's the way that delight
full story goes, as it was handed
down to the present generation
of mountaineers in West Vir-
GINA:
Snowbird, the lovely daughter
of Seneca chief, grew up in the
shadow of Seneca Rocks. BY
study and practices she was able
to climb to the summit of the
rocks; in fact. she was the only
person who had ever accom-
plished the feat.
The time came for Snowbird
to marry. The time was the
month of flowers and Chief Bald
Eagle called a great assemblage
of Senecas. Bedecked in the royal
costume of his tribe he spoke to
the gathering:
The coming of spring has
aroused in my only daughter the
emotion of love. Her suitors have
been many from among you, but
only seven have found the cour-
age to risk their lives for her
hand"
His piercing eyes settled on
the nervous warriors.
"Of all the Seneca people,
Snowbird alone has conquered
yonder rocks"
"Snowbird will climb the crags
again today" he said. IF one of
the suitors can follow her to the
highest peak, he will win her, and
someday take my place as chief
of the Seneca"
The contest began at once. Two
of the warriors became exhausted
in the ascent and turned back.
Another gave up at the halfway

be my husband and leader of
our people. Let weakness bring
him death"
But as Snowbird viewed the
broad expanse she felt a loneli-
ness she had never experienced
before. Where was she to find.
she asked herself. a man as
strong and courageous as the one
lowering near death just below?
Quickly she turned to the edge
Of the precipice, reached down
and pulled the brave to safety.
And so ends a story Of love and
courage.
Today, the summit Of the
mount in Pendleton County is
not so hard to reach. Snowbird
carved a path in romantic leg
end, but man has carved a foot
path to the top for the less ad-
venturous.

Vacationing motorists who

Vacationing motorists who
will be travelling on turn
pixies this summer might
bear this in mind: The
surest way to get yourself a
ticket on a turnpike is to
speed.
An analysis of New Jersey
Turnpike statistics for 1854
shows that about four out of
every five drivers who re-
ceiwe summonses get them
for violating speed regula-
tons.
The study also showed
that about one out of every
thousand motorists on the
expreSsway got into some
sort of trouble with the
police. and that a summons
was issued for every 4l,000
miles Of vehicle travel.
