old, New, Borrowed, Blue
Holds Good for Gardens

Something old, something
new, something borrowed and
something blue" - these are
what a new bride is tradi-
tionally advised to wear at her
wedding in order to insure the
success of her marriage. Oddly
enough, the same words might
be said to a new gardener, to
insure the success of his gar
den.
For something old" is GER
tainly needed in every seasons
garden even if it's only a tenn
porary one. No one would want
a garden which lacked all the
old, familiar plants.
In well established gardens,
the background evergreens,
trees, and shrubs may be the
old things. In new gardens, it
may be sufficient to grow once
again your favorite zinnias and
marigolds Of previous years or
to grow the same kind of vine
up the same trellis.
Something new" may be as
simple as growing a new variety
OF petunia, an unusual flower
like linaria, or a different"
vegetable like tampala. Or, it
may be a bit more complicated,
like an entirely new arrange
ment of a flower border to &C
commodate a more colorful
group of ANIMALS and peren-
malls.
The something borrowed"
should most certainly not be
the next door neighbor's lawn
mower since such borrowing is
sure to lead to trouble. It

should. instead, be the borrow
ing Of ideas and the acceptance
Of advice from more ex-
perienced gardeners who live
nearby.
They can tell you which tools
you'll need, the location of the
garden supply store where the
clerks know their stock, the
name Of the greenhouse man
who grows the newest varieties
OF annual plants. All of these
will help you to have a sue
ceSSful garden.
Something blue" is an i'm
portant ingredient of a success
ful garden too, for blue alone,
Of all the flower colors, can
either unity a garden planting
or furnish it with strong con-
traSt.
When several shades of blue
are used close to one another,
such groupings are repeatd at
intervals in a flower border,
they give the planting a won-
derful feeling of unity.
Plant those same blues with
any bright orange flower near
them and you'll have the
strongest kind of contrast.
Whether used to unity or to
strengthen garden color, gar
den blues are an important
part of garden beauty.
Two excellent blue-flowered
garden flowers are blue lace
flower and love-in-a-mist. Un-
usual in form and color they
are easy to grow, excellent to
use in arrangements.

Nome Is In Urgent
 cesl Of New Power Facilities

Ihe growing problem of load ing of the electric system was the main topic of discussion of the Utility Board Of the Nome Light and Power at their regular meet ing held this. past week The ieVeleanaents Of the past year and the continued requests for power for the coming year has exceeded the planned load estimates by very large margin.
 During the later part of 1860 and during the first part of 1861 a study was made as 10 what the future requirements of the system would be. This study was and is guide to q planned and orderly construction schedule which is outlined over a period of years terminating in 1863 However construction Of various federal and state facilities, which were not known at the time of the study, have increased the loading on the system and diesel plant to where they are operating al nearly peak capacity, leaving none or very little margin for the addition of any future loads.
 Requests for power for the com ing year are very close to the present output of the plant. The largest request being for the new Alaska State Vocational School, this request for the initial installa- tion will equal nearly 500 XIV with more to be requested during
 the later stages of development of
 the school. Various FAA instaua- tions will take an additional 15e
 XIV or more. other installation
 will bring the total additiona
 loading required to the 1000 XIV
 mark
 It was pointed out by the mana ger to the Utility Board that the construction of the Vocational School will bring to Nome con- siderable number of new families, for which housing will have to be constructed and this in it self will increase the demand on the electric facilities.
 The manager of the utility. Mir. Howard Crinklaw, was instructed by the Utility Board to make a study and to report to the board as to what the requirement will be to handle the increase. Various methods of financing are also under consideration by the Utility Board

Britain Will
 Build Polaris- Armed Sub Force
By WILLIAM L. RYAN

NASSAU, Bahamas R = Presi- dent Kennedy and British Prime Minister Harold MacMillan an nounced today a historic decision to create at once a nuclear force and put Polaris armed British submarines in action under t h C North Atlantic Treaty Organize tion banner by 1970.
 The far-reaehing agreement to give the Western alliance a broad ened nuclear shield takes effect in two stages:
 The United States and Brit ain agreed to set aside immediately an undiselosed segment of their bomber forces for use by NATO which would decide the emergency missions and targets.
 The United States agreed 10 provide Britain with intermediate range Polaris missiles minus Warheads-for use on British sub marines
 These forces will be committed to the new multi-nation NATO nuclear force and the United States will assign to NATO one Polaris-armed submarine for each similar undersea craft equipped by the British
 Announcement of the Nassau az reement followed four days of talks between the two leaders. Both considered the document the most important and portentous product of any of their six meet ings.
 The earliest date at which Brit ain could begin buying American made Polaris missiles would be 1870, since no especially-equipped submarines could be built before then. Britain will pay for all mis- siles supplied but will not share US. development costs of $2.5 bil- lion.
 The British will furnish their own Polaris warheads.
 The agreement represented a long step toward the solution of two problems which have plagued the two countries for many months:
 To give Britain an acceptable substitute for the now discarded Skybolt nuclear missile which would have been launched from Britain's Vulcan bombers.
 Tt marked a first step toward possible resolution of the prob lem of western European nations developing independent nuclear,, forces. The Nassau agreement pro- vides framework under which | France, Britain and other Western allies can pool their nuclear punch | under common direction.

DETROIT, May BY the
end Of this week Chevrole;
viii have built twice as many
of its standard size 1862 models
as its nearest competitor.
Chevrolet moved past the
one million mark for the model
year last week and the Ford
Galaxie went over the 500, 900
figure. With more than 10000
assemblies scheduled this week
to the Galaxie's 10000, Chev-
rolet win gain its 2-to-l edge.
For the model year to date
Chevrolet is running about
lbs. 900 units ahead of its 1861
pace. The Galaxie trails year
ago figures by about $4,000
cars.
The major difference ap-
pears to be that Ford's new
entry in the 1862 market, the
Fairlane. has cut into both
Galaxie and Falcon whereas
the new Chevy II as yet has
not dented either the standard
Chevrolet or the Corvair. Unof-
