Leaf and Twie Blight
On Sycumores Curbed

Each spring the sycamores
are defoliated shortly after the
new leaves appear because Of
anthracnose disease. The trees
usually put out a second crop
of leaves but this is a devitaliz-
ing process. Dead twigS and
branches do not add to the
trees appearance.
This disease also affects the
California and Arizona syca-
mores and the white and bur
oaks. The London plane, the
European sycamore, is rather
resistant to the disease.
The anthracnose disease lives
over winter on leaves and on
the Sunken cankers on the
twigs. This survival on the twigs
makes sanitation control by the
raking and burning Of dead
twigS and leaves almost impos-
sible. However, we may spray
with Bordeaux or Zineb in the
spring. The first application
should be a dormant one. The
second as the buds begin to
swell and the third as the
leaves unfurl q days later
gives good control. The mate
rial known as PMAS applied at
the broken bud stage seems to

But avoid shallow rooted
trees such as the Norway
maple, brittle trees like the
silver maple or poplars whose
roots clog drains.
Shade trees should be kept
pruned so that air will circulate
readily through and beneath
their branches. Lower limbs
can be raised (removeO by
pruning. Every lawn tree
should have sufficient elbow
growing room so that it is not
competing with another or rub
bing its branches against house
or garage.
Lawns need not be literally
blanketed with shade to reduce
the crab grass problem. Judici-
Gus placing Of a few good shade
trees will do it. Do not plant
so many trees that the lawn
becomes a forest. This would
defeat your purpose of having
q fine turf.

Grab Grass Discouraged
By Shade From Trees

Troubled with crab grass?
Then plant more shade trees
on the lawn.
Crab grass flourishes best in
full sun. Shade from trees
discourageS it.
Trees to inhibit crab grass
should be properly located. so
that they cast shadows on lawn
areas exposed to the hot mid
day and afternoon sun. Ex-
cesSive shade, of course, should
be avoided. The correct amount
of shade should be attained.
Light, dappled shade of white
birch and mimoSa and scarlet
oak is ideal. Summer turf
grasses other than crab grass
will thrive well underneath
these trees. Any of the oaks,
sugar maple, European Linden
may also be used. Mix the
species, planting tall trees with
shorter ones, such as dogwood,
the sorrel tree, even an apple
tree or two.

branches so as to make the
new growth more compact.
Also. it will be necessary to
select one or more Of the new
shoots and train them into a
new trunk or frame for the
bush. This may require frequent
attention during the early
spring, but as soon as the new
flower buds begin to form, the
growth may slow down. At any
rate, with the heavy pruning
necessary only moderate feed
ing would seem to be in order.
Heavy pruning and heavy feed
ing should be expected to pro-
duce lanky growth-twigS far
apart.
All of which should not i'm
ply that undamaged camellia
bushes do not need pruning
They do. It should be given
to them Immediately after flow
ering. A young plant (under 4
or 5 feet) will probably not
need much, if any, pruning but
this will vary with the variety
Some varieties tend to have a
more compact habit of growth
than others. At any rate, the
younger bushes seldom need
as heavy pruning as do the
older ones whose roots are not
providing as much food and
moisture as is needed. Then
the job is to maintain the bal
ance between roots and top
This will vary also between the
various soils within the garden
as well as between the various
parts of the area. Heavy, poorly
drained soils, seemingly require
heavier pruning for the bushes
to thrive than those soils with
good aeration and drainage.
This cultural practice might
well be a project for the in
Struction committee Of the
Camellia Society of the Poto-
mac Valley?

By WILBUR H. YOUNGMAN
Garden Editor

Most Washington Area gar
denerS seem afraid to use the
pruning shears on their camel
liza plants. This year though
there is much winter damage
to be removed so gardeners
will not only need to remove
the dead and injured wood,
but they will also need to shape
their bushes by careful prun-
ing.
Camellias are not hurt by
pruning and can take it as well
as any other woody shrub. In
the January issue of Camel
liaS, the journal of the Ameri-
can Camellia Society, there is
an article by w. D. Kimbrough
and r. H. Hanchey of the Lou
isiana Agricultural Experiment
Station, describing the impor-
tance Of keeping the top in
balance with the roots system
and that there are many forces
that tend to keep them out of
balance. Also, they conclude
that the average sized bush
will produce an adequate sup
ply of better quality bloom
than an overextended shrub
loaded with two many grow
ing points for the roots to sup
ply.
In light Of the above expert
guidance we should not only
get out our SharpeSt pruning
shears, but we must do it soon
as new growth is already ap-
pearing on many camellia
bushes. Cut out all dead wood,
making certain that only the
minimum of stubs remain.
Thus it is advisable to cut back
as far as is practical to a fork
or to a leaf bud.
Because the winter damage
was largely to the tops of the
bushes the gardener will need
to shorten the remaining side

Devout Against Gamblin 2 BritOn Wins Soccer Pool

LONDON R-A $22 .40-a-Week railroad worker, afraid to tell his wife and son he had gambled, won $449,229 for a farthing Ca quarter of a cenb bet in the weekly soccer pool Tuesday.
 When officials of the betting establishment found the railroad man he was hiding at his home, trying to find a way to explain his good fortune to his devoutly re- ligious family.
 The man, whose identity was kept secret, said he had realized after Saturdays matches that he had correctly forecast the eight ties and was hoping other bettors might have done the same, thus cutting down the amount of his winnings. But he was the sole one to do so and got the entire prize.
 q saw no harm in having a little flutter and would have vel comed a small win," he said, "but this record win has staggered me- ,
 He said he and his wife had scrimped and saved over the years to give their two sons a good religious education, one in which they had learned to regard gam hlino as an evil

Speaker Rayburn Hints There May be Deficits Instead of Surpluses

WASHINGTON LR - House Speaker Sam Rayburn, O-Tex), hinted there may be deficits this year and next instead of the sur pluses forecast by former Presi- dent Eisenhower.
 Rayburn concurred with Presi- dent Kennedy's view that a tax reduction is not in sight now.
 "Wisdom would not suggest a tax cut" Rayburn told newsmen, unless it would be one that would encourage business to expand
 Rayburn and other Democratic congressional leaders talked with reporters after their weekly meet ing with Kennedy at the White House
 In obvious reference to Eisen- hoWer's budget forecasting $79 million surplus for this fiscal year, ending June 30, and SIS billion surplus for fiscal 1862 - Rayburn observed that some former budgets have found money that didn't exist"
 Asked whether this meant that deficits are more likely than sur pluses, Rayburn replied: "Well, it is doubtful if revenues are going to be what have been anti cipated by some people"

TBS Distributing $4
 Billion in an Effort to Stimulate the Economy

WASHINGTON R - The h. ternal Revenue said it is distri- outing more than $4 billion in income tax refunds as rapidly as possible in an effort to stimulate the economy.
 However, IRS Commissioner Mortimer M. Caplin said the job could be done faster if more tax payers filed their returns early.
 We want very much to pay out these refunds as rapidly as possible to help stimulate the nations economy during this period of economic slack," Caplan said.
 He estimated that refunds would be paid within five weeks on returns filed now.
 The deadline for filing income tax returns is April IT this year because the normal April IS dead line falls on a Saturday.
