A LIVING TREE
FOR CHRISTMAS

Living Christmas trees
seemingly are becoming
more popular each year.
Not only are they a safe
indoor decoration but after
wards may become a part
of the overall landscape
plan. The best kinds for
indoor use are also useful
out of doors. The Douglas
fir, pines and spruce are the
ones most widely used for
these purposes.
1t is important that the
tree be kept adequately
watered while indoors;
otherwise its chances of
survival are small. AS
quickly as the indoor use is
ended, it should be planted
in a previously prepared
planting hole. During the
winter, it will need protec-
ton from drying winds
either by screen or with an
anti-deSiccant spray. The
soil over the root area
should be deeply mulched
so that the abbreviated root
system will be able to func-
ton longer into the winter.

surface to the tracery of the

A Sprig or two Of dark green

to make this a prelude Of the
coming of Christmas, l added
some pine-cone flowers to the

to my satisfaction, felt that a
few clusters of the dark and
handsome privet berries would
add a finishing touch.
1t is a beautiful, quick and
inexpensive decoration which is
easily hung onto an outdoor
light fixture or mailbox. l high
ly recommend it.
l know you can spare a
coathanger and the other ma
terials are easily come by, but
you may wonder about the
coneflowers. You can use any
seedpOds or small cones which
you might have or perhaps, the
strong pods of staghorn Su-
mach. The possibilities are
infinite.
If you want to make your own
coneflowers, use an acorn cup,
a wire and the scales Of some
large pinecones. Push the wire
through the acorn cup, bend the
end back. Fill the cup with a
quick drying glue and arrange
the pinecone scales in a circular
pattern. You will enjoy using
these coneflowers for many
years. The acorn cups are easy
to use when they are still green
so do as l did, tuck this helpful
hint away until the time is ripe.
1t is said of gardeners that
they are always ready to share
their knowledge, experience and
surplus. This is equally true Of
the flower arranger who may
come up with a new technique,
a fresh combination or a brand
new angle in design. There are
no misers in this field and
progress is most certainly slim
ulated by those who cast their
bread upon the waters.

By WILBUR H. YOUNGMAN
Garden Editor Of Thr Star


There are only a few steps
which the home gardener can
take that will put the plants in
suitable condition for the win
ter. Regardless of what we may
wish to do, the hardness or
ability to survive winter condi-
tons depends to a considerable
extent upon the weather, and
there is very little we can do
about the weather. Consequent
ly, many of our practices are to
improve the winter hardness as
much as Mother Nature will
permit.
Number one should be to
withhold fertilizers which might
produce soft, succulent growth
which would be subject to win
ter injury. For example, rose
growers in this area are told
not to fertilize their roses after
the first of August.
Secondly, watering can keep
trees and plants in active
growth, but this is extremely
difficult for the gardener to
evaluate. They must have
enough water for normal growth
and root functioning. The ever
greens function throughout the
winter and need more water
than deciduous plants. This year,
suhSoil moisture supplies are
at a very low level, and un-
less rainfall is frequent and
adequate, watering may need to
be continued. This is particular
ly important for evergreens
planted within the last year or
two.
The third step that may be
considered preparation for the
winter is the application of a
mulch. In general, mulches are
applied for two purposes; one,
to keep the soil from freezing
and two. to keep the soil frozen.
Plants whose roots should
continue to function for some
time are mulched before the
ground freezes to keep it from

Reds Boost
Arms Help
70 Africans

The Soviet Union is increas-
ing its military influence in
Afriea-shipping guns, ammu-
nitton and technicians into
young nations which are eager
to show the world that they,
too are big enough to play
With fire.
This growth Of Communist
military assistance to Africa
has caused some concern to
United States officials. but
they are not terribly worried.
Their concern is tempered by
tw0facts:
/. Soviet assistance to Africa
in the past, both military and
economic. has been accompa-
MED by Soviet laundering.
2. The small military estab-
lislnmentS Of the new nations of
Africa have far more ties with
the West than with the Com
munist bloc.
The pace of Soviet military
influence in Africa quickened
in November. The Soviet Union
agreed to supply $50 million
wotth Of arms to Somalia. a
fervently nationalistic land of 2
million people on the horn of
East Africa.
The arms would be enough to
increase Somalia's army from
$500 men to perhaps 10000
men.
Pact With Algeria
A few months before then,
the. Soviet Union reached a
military assistance agreement
with Algeria. The dollar value
of the agreement is not know.
The influx Of Communist
military equipment does not
itself concern United States
officials. The danger they see
is the training that comes with
the.equipment.
The Communist nations send
technicians to train African
soldiers In the use Of the equip
ment. They also invite African
officers to attend military
courses in the Soviet Union or
Red China or one Of the other
Communist nations.
Most African nations have
weak, unstable governments.
Their political traditions are
new and fragile. Their armies
often have the power to keep
and break governments.
African armies under the
control Of q few Moscow-or
PeHng-trained officers, If they
desired, could bring commu-
niSfn to Africa.
Distinction Seen
but, while noting this, Unit
ed States officials-both at the
Stale Department and the
Pentagon-also are quick to
point out that there is no proof
that an African officer will
absorb and accept Communist
theology at the same time that
he absorbs and accepts advice
about q Communist gun.
1t Is difficult to arrive at a
figure for the total amount of
Communist military assistance
that has reached Africa. Most
of the details in United States
hands are classified and not
available to the American
public.
But United States officials
wilt offer these estimates:
The Soviet Union and other
Communist nations have given
Egypt military aid "in excess"
Of Its $500 million economic
add Communist military aid to
the. rest Of Africa-not count
ing the Somalia and Algeria
deals-amounts to about $50
million; add the recent deals,
and the total Communist aid to
Africa since World War II
climbs over the $3.50 million
mark, with most If it going to
