in case of a nuclear attack,
many survivors would have to
rely on their own supplies OF
food and water for up to two
weeks. Families are urged to
either store and maintain a
special emergency food stock
pile in their homes or fallout
shelter, or to build up their
regular food stocks SO there
is a 2-week supply on hand d,
all times.
Stockpile foods should be i.
cans, jars or tightly seale0
paper containers, preferably
in sizes that will contain just
enough for one meal. Foods
should be chosen that will last
for months without refrigerat-
ion and that can be eaten with
little or no cooking.
A new USDA publication,
"Family Food Stockpile for
Survival" gives other infor-
nation on food and water sup
plies, sample menus, equip

You should allow a minimum
of seven gallons of drinking

New hybrids lilies are
opening up wonderful opor-
tunities in the field of garden
beauty. But We must not over
look one of the most vital re-
quirements to lily success and
this is perfect drainage. In
poorly drained soils, even the
best of the new lilies have to
struggle to SURVIVE. Make
sure your drainage is good
before you plant. Cultural
directions usually cover this
fully but all too many garden
erS fail to heed the advice.
Therefore, l urge you to pre-
pare your soil properly and
make absolutely sure of your
drainage before you plant.

During the attempted entry

TCHULA r. ID CLUB

On Monday, Sept. IL, 1861,
Mrs. G. r Logan, Jr. present.
ed a program on Hybrid Lii
lies'' over Radio Station
WXTN, Lexington, Miss.
If any of the exciting new
lilies have lowered in your
garden, I'm sure you will ag-
rec with me that they are
simply "out of this world"
Thousands of gardeners are
discovering that these exqul-
site flowers may be grown in
average gardens by average
people, and their enthusiasm
is UNDERSTANDABLE great.
This new-found adaptable
ty of lilies to ordinary gar
dens is the result of the many
new American-grown hybrid
lilies available today. Twenty
or so years ago, almost no hy-
brid lilies were to be found.
Today, most of the popular
lilies are hybrids, the great
majority of which have been
developed within the last de-
cade.
The ten most popular n.y.
brid lilies are Aurelians, En-
cnantment, Fiesta = HyDrids,
Golden Chalice, Golden Splen-
dor, Green Mountain Hybrids,
Hearts Desire, lillian Wal
Lace, Olympic Hybrids, and
Sunset. And of these ten only
three were in commerce be-
fore 1850.
Maybe you wonder why n.y.
brid lilies are so popular. It's
simply because they thrive n
average gardens without pam
pering. You need not have a
super green thumb" to flow
er them and enjoy their beau
ty year after year. They are
grown commercially right out
in open fields just as one
would grow potatoes, and, if
given half a chance will thrive
and multiply for years.
In 1858 two exceptionally
fine strains were offered for
the first time: Potomac Hy-
birds, developed by DR. S. l..
EmSWeller at the Beltsville,
Maryland U. S. D. A. Expert
ment Station, and Centennial
HyDrids, developed by Edgar
Kline in Oregon. Both strains
are outstanding.
Two years ago another new
lot called the Emerald Strain
was added, an opalescenl
green of unusual charm. Last
year another group of de
CRAFT hybrids called the SEN
tinel Strain made their bow.
They are expected to become
as popular in the future as his
Olympics are today.
For 1859 de CRAFT introdu-
ced a new hybrid group he
calls the Reflection Strain, a
late midsummer blooming
trumpet with long buds and
tapered blooms quite different
from most trumpets. Their
unusual color, an iridescent
mother-of-pearl and sea-green
tone with a faint pinkish cast
upon opening, is most pleas
ing.
In the not TOO distant fut-
ure many more new and diff
ferent hybrids will make their
initial bow. A few of them
have been seen at some of the
big flower shows. De CRAFT
terms them the Empress
Group. And just around the
corner is a new strain of
pure white lilies somewhat
similar to Speci-O-Sums in
form but huge in size and of
unimaginable perfection

Color Films Taken of
Shepard's Flight Provide
Valuable Information

CAPE CANAVERAL R-Color
films taken in Alan Shepard's
space capsule are providing val
liable information about his pio-
neering flight.
A still 70mm camera snapped
pictures through the periscope
which gave Shepard his ''beauti-
full view of the earth. A 16mm
movie camera attached to the in
strument panel recorded Shep-
ards facial reactions and hand
movements. Another was aimed
over his shoulder at the numerous
lights and dials on the instru-
ment panel.
The National Aeronautics and
Space Administration, over the
weekend, released a few black
and white prints from the peri
scope and pilot reaction cameras.
The color negatives from which
they were made were more de-
tailed.
One periscope shot showed the
eastern coastline of the United
States from the tip of Florida to
Cape Hatteras, BIC, from an al
titude of 90-10O miles.
This was taken about three
minutes after launch, about the
time Shepard called out by radio
his now famous "What a beauti-
full view"
Color film was used primarily
for medical reasons. Doctors
wanted to detect any skin color
change during flight.
