You Can Create
Beauty /
With Flower!
Adjustments Decided in Advance
BY MRS. HERBERT II. GREGER

In general. most of our homes
are rather colorful. We usually
choose. or perhaps gradually
acquire. somewhat muted colors
in our furnishings and sur
round our families with what
best suits their combined taste
Most frequently these colors
change from room to room, but
we also use a uniform color for
all our walls and avoid mo-
notony by various groupings Of
color accents.
In my home I can easily use
any color combination for
flower arrangements without
offending. However, an atmos-
phere Of vibrant emphasis on
color develops Immediately
when I use shades and tints of
the big family of orange hues,
When lily time arrives, I
usually choose some of the red
orange umbellatum lilies for a
summer arrangement.
Not all flowers attain the
same height and strength in
the garden, and that deter
mines their posture. The short
er and weaker lilies will nat
urally curve a little under the
weight Of their blossoms. In
order to feed and mature the
future lily bulb, one must not
ever cut more than half the
stem. The remaining leavts S
will produce next years growth.
Plan in Advance
I must plan before go into
the garden. I will select the
place for the arrangement, de-
eide on the container and re-
move some of the ashtrays and
accessories so that I can give
space and through it promi-
nence to the finished arrange
ment. Thus the relationship of
relative size as we'll as the gen.
eral area into which the we'll
proportioned arrangement must
mt. are predetermined.
In the home, our setting for
an arrangement is more or less
permanently fixed. In a flower
show a precise volume of space
is offered. In the home the
area may not have such visible
boundaries, but they are pre-
sent just the same and are
definitely a limiting factor
Another limitation lies in the
amount of material available
for cutting. This time / used

From Henry NJ. LeUis
Rte. 2, Boz 127T, Vienna Va.
In The Star Garden Book
you say to use EPSON salts and
borax to increase the sugar
content Of cantaloupes. When
should this be applied and how
to the soil, or to the vines,
and when?
AnSUer
The solution containing Ep-
som salts and borax may be
sprayed on the foliage or poured
on the ground. 1t may be done
at any time before the fruits
start to form. Do not overdo,
both the magnesium and the
boron can be toxic to plants.

What should be done with an
Easter lily bulb that has been
dug and the dirt removed?
AnsDer
The Easter lily bulbs are
hardy and may be left in the
ground. Since your bulb has
been dug and cleaned, store in
peatmoss to prevent its drying
1t is always a problem to keep
the bulbs moist enough so that
they will not shrivel and dry
enough to avoid rot. In October
the bulb may be planted in any
well drained situation where
the lily will receive sunshine

gible as a result Of this change
in the law will be made for the
month of October, 1860.
In terms of future eligibility,
the reduction in the amount of
work required means that many
more wage earners and their
widows and dependent widow
ers will be able to qualify for
social security benefits when
they reach retirement age.

The 1860 amendments to the

I can think of a number of

Bagdad Whips

nStretch Run
Shoemaker Gives
Keck Colt Great
Suntu Anitu Ride

ASAAAAs oAA4's SN. 10
(AP). - Bill Shoemaker gave
Howard B. Keck's Bagdad a
great ride today in capturing
the $57,5O0 San Antonio Hand
leap.
Bagdad OUTRAGED the favored
First Landing in an exciting
stretch duel at Santa Anita
and Shoemaker had his colt
well placed for the drive to the
wire.
First Landing had to make
up ground on the far turn and
wasn't equal to catching the
faSt-f1ying Bagdad and the
Keck star won by IA lengths.

field Of IL starters.
Bagdad returned 81, SO and

How Now was $3.50.
Bagdad Gets S34,4OO
The net to the winner was
$34 400. Bagdad now has won
$50, 400 this year in three starts.
Bagdad's time for the mile
and one-eighth was 1:48.1.
Bagdad's victory today gave
him revenge for the defeat
First Landing pinned on him
here January 30. That was a
highly controversial race at a
mile and a quarter in which
Linmold'S rider, Don Pierce,
claimed a foul against First
Landing in the Santa Anita
Maturity.
First Landing appeared on
the television running of the
official films to have borne in
on Linmold. Bagdad was run
ming neck and neck and may
not have had racing room
Today he had plenty of it, in
fact he had the stretch all to
himself.
ArcarO Goes to Whip
The Irish-bred PRONUNCIATION,
showing a great burst of speed,
was the pacemaker all the way
to the far turn. But at that
point, Shoemaker made his
move. Applying the pressure,
he shot Bagdad into a quick
lead and the 4-year-old son OF
Double Jay really went to it.
