The widely planted and en-
joyed forSythia is so colorful
in the early spring that few
yards are without it. Undoubt-
edly there are some who think
it too common to merit a place
but with out a doubt it is one
of the most productive bloomers
in the early spring. When
planted in a warm situation it
blooms so early it is a true
harbringer of spring.
The forsythia is most unde-
and will thrive in
almost any soil or exposure.
The numerous flower buds
appear at the leaf axis
are seldom ever injured by
frost. If the forsythia is not
fertilized and only the oldest
canes removed at pruning time
the growth is less likely to
be rampant and a better flower
obtained. The flower
buds which appear only in the
leaf axis nodeS) appear thin
and scattered if the internodal
growth is long. Short nodes

Forsythio Fine Shrub,

mean the flower clusters are
closer together and thus give
the desired density to the floral
display.
The forsythia should be
pruned in the spring immedi-
ately after Towering with only
the older branches removed
near the ground level. In this
way the youthfulneSS and
vigor of the shrub is maintained
without feeding. Also, because
the forsythiaS are strong
most kinds will grow
10 feet or more, this annual
pruning helps to keep them
within bounds. But even then,
such forms as F. suspense, the
golden bell, tends to
have a wide spread. If allowed
to go unpruned it will Tip
layer" the ends of the branches
touching the ground take root,
and new plants develop. While
this is excellent for a bank
cover it is likely to be too wide
spreading for the smaller yard.
Most forsythia bushes tend
to throw strong, tall-growing
new shoots each season. In
large gardens this may not be
Objectionable but in the smaller
yard it is well to keep them at
moderate height. This is best
done by judicious pinching
during the summer. If, how
ever, they escape this atten-
ton do not hesitate to prune
them back to just below the
desired height. They will then
send out side branches and
attain a bushier form.
There are several forms and

ON BRIDGE
Good Purtner
Is TroubIemuker
By ALFRED SHERWOOD

According to the latest sta
tistics, about 40 million people
play bridge in the United States.
Most Of them are good citizens
and make no trouble for any,
body except on legal holidays
and when crossing the street.
I'm proud to be their fellow
citizen, but I wouldn't want
them as my partner in a bridge
game. I want a partner who
makes trouble.

Opening lead: Queen Of clubs.
The difference Is clear in
this sort Of hand. I held the
East cards and q good citizen
held the West cards. He called
himself my partner.
West opened the queen of
clubs and continued the suit
until South ruffed. Declarer led
a diamond to dummy's queen
and returned a low trump from
dummy. I played the deuce,
South tried a finesSe with the
queen Of spades and the good
citizen dropped the three of
spades.
If you're made Of the right
stuff you should be harrumph-
ing and snorting at this feeble
play. If you haven't seen Vests
mistake, don't admit it to any
body. You wouldn't want to be
called a good citizen.
No Choice
South was now missing the
K-10-9 Of spades and had no
choice. His only chance to avoid
the loss of a trump trick was to
lead out the ace of spades and
hope that the king would drop.
The king did drop and South
made the game and rubber.
A good troublemaker In the
West seat would drop the nine
Of spades when South wins q
finesse with the queen. This
creates the impression that
West started with the double
ton 1919 Of spades.
If South believes this, he will
get to rummy with q diamond
and lead the jack Of spades in
the hope of picking UP the king
and the ten at the same time.
And If South does this he will
lose q trump trick to Vests
guarded ten.
II you want to be q good
partner you mustn't Just sit
there and follow suit. Make
trouble!
