Many thought that the bulb
beds, which are regularly
mulched with hay, and this year
were deeply covered with snow,
would not suffer injury. How
ever, after the thaw began
there was a period Of heavy
rains and the beds stood in wa
ter for some time. One leader
stated that he thought the thaw
had only penetrated about five
inches. and that thus most of
the bulbs were growing in wa
ter for some time. At any rate,
injury is showing up in many
areas and seemingly has af-
fected most of the important
kinds. Some thought that the
''polders" with the heavier soils
might suffer more than others
but as Of now this does not seem
to be the case. Kennenerland
and Breeland, as Of late April,
seemed to have suffered most
injury.
The extent Of the winter in
Jury cannot be accurately de-
termined until after the bulbs
are dug and carefully examined.
Because of this growers had
practically stopped offering
their wares by mid-April and
were waiting. OF course, this
had the effect Of strengthening
prices and curtailing the TAX
ing Of orders for early ship
ment.
There is one bright side to
the picture. The acreage in
bulbs is about 10 or II percent
greater than for the previous
crop. There were losses that
year, and it is possible that
the '63 harvest may produce a
supply equal to or greater than
did the 80 crop. However, that
is not the feeling among the
growers today and only after
harvest will they be able to say.
The early season appraisal of
the injury to the various kinds
Of bulbs indicates that the
Evening star., 1963-05-19

daffodils did not suffer any
more injury in 1868 than in
1862. Tulips were badly injured
in some areas, but the total
reduction Is very uncertain. The
hyacinths seemed to be Suf-
fering the least injury Of the
three major kinds. The pro-
duction of crocus seems to have
suffered little or no injury,
whereas the Dutch iris were
badly hurt, as were the grape
hyacinths. Information about
the status of the other small
Towering bulbs was not easy
to obtain - the acreageS in
volved are very small and
widely scattered.
In summary it might be said
that because of the bad win
ter Dutch bulb shipments will
be delayed. The growers are
not offering. They are waiting
for harvest and grading before
they can be certain of what
they have to offer. This has
had the effect of strengthen
ing prices which may mean we
will be paying more If damage
turns out to be greater than
is now known. However, this
does not mean we will be get
ting poorer quality bulbs. The
quality of bulbs permitted to be
shipped is rigidly controlled by
the Dutch government. Also the
United States Department of
Agriculture sends inspectors
into the packing houses and
checks the health of all bulbs
destined for this country.
AS of now we can only hope
that the bulbs did not suffer
too badly by their stay in the
icy waters of the spring thaw
and rains.

There were three major
changes from the 1928 hunt

will recommend three split
dove seasons which will give
both north or south parts of
the state better opportunity
for dove hunting provided

Three split deer seasons were
set for the Delta section of
the state and some adjoining
counties with a yearly bag
limit of two eer. The counties
in the southern part of the

A little Korean boy, who has
lived nearly all his small life in
hospitals. has found a home
and a mother and father.
He is "a years old now, and
after several thousand miles OF
travelling and many strange
faces. Krack Lee has a family
with whom to spend Thanks
giving.
Krack, who has been re-
named Jack by his foster par
ents, Mr.. and Mrs. John Hol-
way of 5601 Thirteenth street
NV. crawled around the floor
Of their apartment yesterday
with a child's mild acceptance
Of the excitement which came
with his arrival.
81 remember when I first
saw him. coming off a plane in
San Francisco last May, on his
way to the hospital, said Mr..
Holway. II found him Just by
the noise. He was crying con-
SANITY and he was hurt and
suspicious Of everyone. The
greatest change is to see him
smiling and laughing"
The Holways planned to
adopt Jack and a half-brother

sympathetic. but each thought
the other two should handle
it."
Under United States immi-
grafton regulations, Jack coulc
enter the country only If some
agency guaranteed immediate
medical attention for him here
Someone suggested Mr.. Holway
contact the National Jewish
Hospital at Denver.
They were wonderful. They
agreed to take Jack. And for
free. In a way he is really more
their boy than ours at this
time. They rel ally made q
change in his life. He has three
nurses out there who spoiled
him; he had quite a crush on
them"
While in the hospital, Jack
was taught to say "Mommy''
and Mr.. Holway said: when
he first saw me he started call
ing me Mommy. We went to
see him in September, never
dreaming he'd be ready tc
come home so soon"

Jimmy at first spoke only

We met when I was stationed
in Japan and Korea. At first
we spoke a sort Of melange OF

Adding to the international
flavor is Mr.. Holway's job. He
