be evident through chlorotic
leaves. Thus in addition to the
factors mentioned above it Ii
well to examine the poor bloom
ers to see if this could be the
cause.
Azaleas need to be protected
from insect pests - the red
spider mite and the azales
lacefly. This can be done with
Malathion which should be ap-
piled at the recommended
rate to the undersides of
the leaves three times at
weekly intervals. This repeated
application is essential since
the Malathion kills only the
adults-not the nymphs or the
eggs. A second round of sprays
may be needed in August and
again in october. In lieu OF
the Malathion the gardener
may wish to use dimethoate-
one application is sufficient
and will last most of the grow
ing seasons.

Reasons Why AzoIeus
Lack Spring Bloom

been more tender TN q n
thought. Such varieties have
buds that are more easily in
jured by cold than the Ku-
rumes and similar types Of
proven hardness.
Winds Took Toll
Plants in exposed situations
we're more likely to be injured
last winter than those pro-
tected from the debilitating
winds. Even In the foundation
paintings this could have been
a factor in. the scarcity Of
bloom. Winds take moisture
from buds and leaves, even the
smaller twigs, and once dried
out they are not likely to re-
vive. This condition was most
severe where the ground was
deeply frozen and the roots un-
able to supply moisture to the
leaves.
Our past experiences should
be q guide to further prac-
tices. During drought periods
1t is always important to wa
ter whenever rainfall is made
quate. A well mulched bed
needs much less watering than
one that is not mulched. Sec
ondly, feed in the spring so
that the plants may take up
all Of the plant food avail
able and make the new growth
and bud formation early in the
season and then have ample
time in which to mature the
wood before cold weather is
expected.
Protect plants in exposed Sit
uations with pine boughs or
even a few branches from trees
and shrubs. Or, a burlap screen
will serve the purpose.
Soil Should Be Acid
And, we should note any
plants that may be lacking in
iron chlorotic and correct the
situation by supplying 1t in an
availble form. The soil should
also be acidified though the
addition of an inexpensive
form of sulphur-2ha pounds
per 100 square feet. This should
keep the soil acid enough for
good growth for several years
unless the bed is subject to
runoff from a bluestone path
or roadway.
II the chlorotic condition is
not corrected by this means
then the plants should be
checked for being too deeply
planted, for nematodes, and
for compacted soil. These three
conditions can cause chlorosiS
even though the soil is acid
enough for the relaeSe Of iron
to the plants. Deep planting
may cause poor bloom and not

Star Garden Editor

In many gardens one or
more of the azalea bushes pro-
duced only a scattering, If any,
bloom. This scarcity of bloom
is more apparent on some va
rieties than on others, but
more often it is a particular
portion of the border or the
foundation planting that is de-
void of color.
In addition to the lack Of
bloom there may be dead twigs
or even plants that are dead
or partially dead which may
perplex the owner
Last winter was unusually
severe. However, the first cause
of winter injury traces back to
last summers drought. Plants
that suffered from that
drought went into the winter
in weakened condition. Any
thing that weakens a plant
drought, insect injury, nema-
todes, ETC., may cause loss OF
twigs, flowers and even the
plant itself. The drough I
caused many plants to 60
through a dormancy period
and when the rains came In
late September and early Oc-
tober they thought 1t was
spring and started into growth,
some flowered. Obviously, this
put them in q soft, succulent
growth very susceptible to in
jury by early freeze october
IS to 81.
Ground Frozen Deep
The lack Of bloom may thus
be blamed on the fall killing Of
tender buds. However, during
the winter the ground was fro
zen to a considerable depth
that in many cases prevented
root functioning. Thus tn e
leaves turned brown and on
many bushes eventually fell
off. This weakened the bushes
and they were unable to flower
normally this spring.
Bushes that were chlorotic,
lacked normal color although
the veins in the leaves re-
mained green, were weakened
and subject to winter injury
as well as unable to develop
their flowers in normal fashion.
Such bushes, unles given help
soon die. The answer to this
condition is to supply iron in
a form available to the plants
and to acidify the soil with
sulphur. The first to immedi-
ately remedy the situation, the
second to avoid further prob
lens.
Then there is the question
of variety hardness. Those

Hotel Fights
Seizure for
World Group

The owner or a small hotel
In Foggy Bottom filed an action
this week opposing a special
act of Congress designed to
condemn the hotel and then
transfer 1t to the international
Monetary Fund.
The owner of the Hotel
Maury, 701 Nineteenth street,
N. w., claims that the con-
demnation is unconstitutional
because it does not benefit the
United States but an interna-
tional organization of which
America is only one member.
Furthermore, the owner
maintains that the congress
sional act was simply a ruse to
help the International None
tary Fund obtain the hotel
without paying the owners SELL
ing price.
The action arose when Con-
gress passed a law last year au-+
thorizing the General Services
Administrator to exercise emf
nent domain in the name of
the United States Of America
and to take title to the land.
The Government estimated
the hotel was worth $406, 900.
The INF had offered $313,000
which was turned down by John
Loughren, the trustee of the
land. The act specified that the
GSA was to turn the title over
to INF and that INF was to
fully re-imbuse the govern
ment.
The hotel owner asserted that
the right of eminent domain
can be exercised constitution
ally only If the taking of the
land is for the good of the
United States. Here, the owner
says. the beneficiary will be the
INF. which is not In any way
controlled by the United States.
Indeed. the hotel owner points
out. the United States has one
vote out Of the rs members and
has q per cent of the funds
financial reserves.
