Finish Garden Chores
Before Winter Comes

the winter weather sets in. 1t
is best TO pile soil up about
8 TO 10 inches around the base
of the plant, using soil from
another part of the garden,
since digging around the plants
may damage the roots.
This is also the time of
year to protect young fruit
and ornamental trees, espec-
cially those that have been plan
ted in the past TWO or three
years and are still small e.
nough to be damaged by mice
and rabbits this winter. This
can be done by installing a
quarter-inch or smaller mesh
screen or hardware cloth to a
height of TWO feet around the
trees.
Stevens recommends protec-
ting tender broadleaf plants
from the sun and winter damage
by putting a screening of bur-
lap around them. A good mulch
of peat moss, wood chips or
other similar materials around
these evergreens VIII prevent
them from freezing, he says.
Be sure to keep leaves from
smothering your lawn, Stevens
cautions. If a heavy layer of
leaves collects under trees and
is allowed to remain there
throughout the winter, they will
get wet and smother out the
grass.
Stevens reminds that grass is
still growing to some extent and
If there are a few more warm
days, 1t may be necessary to
NOV your lawn again. Be sure
to set your mower fairly high
so the lawn will not be bare
when the grass stops growing.
Now, too, is good time to
be thinking about lining the
lawn and garden, Stevens says.
The amount of line and soil
nutrients the garden or lawn
needs can be determined by
sending a soil sample to the
University of Delaware, Soil
Testing Laboratory, Agri-
cultural Hall, Newark, Della
ware. The service is free of
charge.

In spite of the fact that the
weather has grown cool, there
are still plenty of garden jobs
that should be taken care of
before winter weather sets in,
reports Robert Stevens, ex-
tension horticulmrist at the
University of Delaware.
Cutting roses back enough
to keep wind from whipping the
canes is most important at
this time, he says. Otherwise
their roots will be loosened
from the soil and may cause
injury to the plant. Cut them
back so that they are only 2
l/2 to 8 feet high, Stevens
says. Final pruning can be
done In late winter or early
spring. 1t is also good to heap
up the roses with soil before

State Song Available
To Public For ST.

This was granted by House
Joint Resolution No. 5 and the
Governor was authorized to ap-
point a selection committee.
This committee subsequently
considered ninety-five entries
submitted in statewide COM
petition and on May %, 1860.
selected the entry of Dom De-
vine of Wilmington as its choice
as a possible fourth stanza.
Inasmuch as H.. J.R. S stip-
ulated that the stanZa selected
by the committee would be made
available on a trial basis to
schools and musical organiza-
lions, the proposed fourth or
estate stanza" was included in
a reprinting of ''Our Delaware"
that was distributed by the Del
aware State Development De-
parment. The recording, now
being distributed, Is, according
to Mr.. Hart, another step
towards getting Widespread use
of the State Song and further
sampling the public acceptance
of the proposed fourth stanza.
"Our Delaware, "The Ma
tional Anthem" and america
the Beautiful" we're taped DUR
ing the annual Delaware Mu-
sic Camp, June 1922. Copies
of this tape were presented to
Governor Ebert N. Carvel, who
subsequently suggested that
recordings be made from the
tape.
On August 18th, the Budget
Commission, acting upon sug-
gestion of Governor Carvel, ap-
proved an expenditure of $3.50
from the State Department of
Public Instructions educational
contingency fund for the cutting
of 1000 records. A test record
was approved by MIR. Hart on
September "a and the actual
pressing of records began
shortly thereafter.
The State Development De-
partment subsequently provided
an appropriately designed la
BILE and an attractive jacket
printed In blue and gold.
Distribution of the records
was officially launched on No

sented Governor Carvel with the
first copy during program tel

According to Floyd T. Hart,
state director of music educa-
tion, vocal and instrumental
recordings of the State Song
"Our Delaware" are now a

A two-sided, seven-inch plaS-
tic records now being distrtb-
uted by MIR. Hart to music tea

distributed to radio and tele-
vision stations by the Delaware
State Development Department.
After the initial distribution
is completed, a limited supply
of records will be made avail
able to the public at $l.0O
each.
The record, which is for 33
l/3 rpm. play, includes, on
the one side, a David B. Ko-
zinski arrangement of the orig
inal version of 'Our Delaware"
as played by the Delaware Mu-
sic Camp Orchestra under the
direction of william Smith, as
sistant conductor of the Phila-
delphia Orchestra, and thepro-
posed estate stanza" as sung
by the Delaware Music Camp
Small Choir under the direction
of Robert Page, conductor of
the Temple University Choirs.

Wded the musical accompanie-
ment for the fourth or estate"

The reverse side of the plat
ter includes "The National An
them" (The Star-Spangled Ban
ner), as played by the Music
Camp Orchestra under direc-
tion of MIR. Smith with vocal
by Delaware Music Camp Male
Vocal Ensemble under direction
of Mr.. Page, and "America the
Beautiful" as sung by the Mu-
sic Camp Small Choir under
direction of Mr.. Page. Accom-
paniement for america the
Beautiful" is by Mr.. Reid.
According to MIR. Hart, the
vocal version of "The Star
Spangled Banner" was done in
A-flat ''fnr the comfort of sin
gers who do not want to GO
above the fourth space" and the
instrumental version was done
in the original key of B-flat
''for a brighter, more inspir-
ing instrumental effect.
The original version of "Our
Delaware, consisting of three
stanzas and chorus, was written
in 1916 by George B. Hynson
of Milford and set to music
by william MS. Brown of VII
mington. 1t was subsequently
selected as the Estate song"
an action thatwas formally rec
ognized by act of the General
Assembly on April 7, 1925.
In recent years, the song re-
ceived limited use possibly due
to the fact that each of its three
original stanzas extolled only
the attractions of a separate
county instead of the state as
a whole.
After consultation with state
officials, Mr.. Hart, in 1859, sent
letters to forty educational and
community organizations re-
questing their reaction to the
suggestion that an additional
stanza applying to the state as
whole be added.
When this suggestion re-
ceived a strong endorsement,
permission was requested from
the l20th General Assembly to
select the additional stanza
