thick fabrics are rightly un-

and they made it practic-

look like big hats on little

over tailored suits, or little,
pinheaded hats on big, fat

that is.
In the winter storaging of
tools, chemicals and other gar
den materials, much damage
can be done through careless
ness. Here are five easy rules
for the salvage campaign:
!. Keep bulky goods of the
f1oor so that air can circulate
underneath to safeguard
against moisture damage. Plas-
tic sheet coverings also will
help keep materials dry.
2. Keep communicating fer
tilizers away from tools that
may become corroded. Prun-
ing tools and saws. coated gen.
erously with even old crank
case oil and hung on individual
hooks, will remain sharp and
ready for use in spring. Wooden
handles Of garden tools also
last longer when kept dry.

sumes in the spring an abun-
dance Of water seems Iieces-
sary. However, the rubber plant
does not tolerate wet feet and
the soil mixture should have
good drainage.
Washing the leaves at least
once a month to eliminate dust
and insect pests has much to
do with the plants vigor. The
artificial leaf shine may cause
harm by closing the breathing
pores (stomata). In the sum-
mer the plants may be parked
in a protected situation out OF
doors. Light shade is preferable
but freedom from damaging
winds is important.
Since the rubber plant grows
rather rapidly it soon outgrows
its home and it becomes neces-
sary to air-layer the top by
using a roofing hormone, sphag-
mum moss, and polyethylene
plastic. When the new roots
have developed in the moss the
top is served just below the
air-layer and potted. The ole
plant will develop branches Just
below this cut and may be
grown as a bushy plant, al
though it is preferable to cut
it back severely and have the
branching start near the base
The stem thus removed may be
cut into sections with a Leaf
attached and these rooted in
a sand cutting bed.-YOUNG-

Rose References

PIiny Writings.

Pliny. writing in II A. D.,
made frequent reference to the
rose. both as a lobbyist and a
historian. AS a grower, he ad-
monished the reader to dig
beds deep enough to accom-
modate spreading roots-even
as today's top garden writer's.
He also makes note Of the
fact that oil crushed from the
petals of roses was an impor-
tant ingredient in many popu-
lar medicines of the day. In
this respect. he was a true
clairvoyant, because rose hips
today are recognized as the
most plentiful source of vita
min c. containing about 10
times as much as citrus fruits.
Commercial use of the rose
also includes altar for perfume
and soap.
Bulgaria is the worlds lead
ing producer of altar, but a
group in Texas is presently
experimenting with new pro-
duction methods in hopes of
reducing the cost.

DDT Sproy
Steps UpWor
On Beetles

Chemical warfare is reach
ing far behind the green
curtain to help curb Dutch elm
disease.
Dormant spraying of elms,
once confined to the spring
period before leafing, now ex-
tends to autumn after leaf
fall.
The important point is that
a single DDT spraying on bare
trees has year-long lethal
power against invading elm
bark beetles. These insects are
the carriers of the Dutch elm
malady.
E. T. Bowen, field repre-
sentative Of the Davey Tree
Expert Co.,, says fall often
offers definite spraying ad-
vantages. Instead of the wet,
cold and windy weather some
times typical of spring, often
autumn and early winter fire.
quently bring many bright, dry,
mild and relatively MINDLESS
days that are ideal for effec-
tive spraying operations. Too
often dormant spraying
planned for early spring or late
winter may never get done
because of weather conditions
that are completely unsuitable
Bird lovers, too, usually en-
courage fall and winter elm
spraying because it comes at
a time when it interferes the
least with normal bird activity.
According to Government
researchers, DDT's residual
effectiveness is remarkable. For
this reason, sprays can be ap-
piled any time trees are bare
and still be. potent during the
growing season. Only when
trees are "de-frocked" can
best chemical coverage be
assured.

In many gardens and at the
National Arboretum the fall
Towering sasanqua camellias
are vying with the autumn
foliage colors for attention.
Normally q killing frost has
taken the glory from the tree
leaves and the cainellias have
little competition, unless it be
a few stray chrysanthemums
Those old time chrysanthe-
NUNS that could withstand
hard frosts and no care have
about disappeared. In their
place we have a lovely array OF
woody shrubs that can perk
up a shrub border. or a founda-
tion planting with color at this
season.
The sasanqua camellias are
not new but it is only in recent
years that they have gained at
tention. Now the more than
80 varieties at the National
Arboretum plus un coun t e d
seedlings put on a show that
attracts gardeners for miles
around and well it may.
The sasanqua camellia differs
materially from the lovely Ca
mellia japonica in that the
japonica is noted for its long
lasting beauty in a corsage or
floating in a shallow bowl.
Most Of the japoniea camelliaS
bloom in the spring, there are
a few fall blo0mers. The ia
ponicas are shade lovers. at
least only a few can Withstand
the sun during the winter. The
Sasanquas will not set buds in
too shaded situation and pre-
fer sun for at least a portion
of,the day. The sasanquas also
are strictly fall bloomers and
the buds can take as low as
l8. degrees before they are hurt
by freezing weather. One va.
riety is reported able to with
stand 10 degrees without loss
of buds. The flowers of the
sasanquas are not suitable fol
cutting or indoor use, although
1t is quite probable that some
day we will have hybrids that
