The vines bloom early in spring and until late in the fall. Pink Chiffon, Crimson Star, Nelly Moser, Prince Phillip, and Ramona are some of Uie extra good ones. Plant them where their roots stay moist but the vine grows up in fuU sun shine. Delphiniums, digatalis, gladiolus, liatris, larkspur, marigolds, tahonka daisy, and zinnias make a colorful garden. Petunias are always colorful. They may be us^ in pots, hanging baskets, window Iwxes and borders. You may always get the colors you like. Plum, pink, reds, white, and BluePicotee RALEIGH —Tk. best way to cut your nome heating bill — or keep It at Its lowest possible point — Is to avoid heat ing the outdoors. Warm air rises and expands, and if there are ways for it to get out of your house It will. So here are some tips from Charlotte Womble, extension housing spe cialist, North Carolina State University, that may help you keep warm air In the house. First, insulate. In sulation Is a relatively inexpensive material and a properly insulated home has little heat loss. Place 4 to 6 inches of insulation between the ceiling joists in the attic. Fill spaces between walls. Also put insfila- tion between floor joists under all rooms that cover unheated areas such as crawl spaces. Also use storm win dows and storm doors. You can substitute clear vinyl or plastic sheet ings if you wish. Miss Womble points out. Secure sheeting to out side window trims with strips of screen molding. Keep door closed. It’s a good idea to Install self- oloslng fasteners on storm doors so they won’t stand open, the specialist observes. Let air circulate. If you have forced-air heat ing, make sure the cold air return outlet is not blocked by furniture, rugs or other objects. Use a fan to push warm air to hard-to-heat areas of the home. Close fireplace dam pers When fireplace is not in use. If the fire place Is never used, close it off with Insulating board. This will reduce the movement of heated air out of the chimney. Replace furnace fil ters or clean them reg ularly. If filters are clean, the furnace doesn’t have to work so hard to move the air; also air circulated through the house will be cleaner. Finally, weather strip all Windows and doors. And seal any cracks with caulking compound. F&L MOTORS Home of Sharp Cars are color ranges you may choose. This week, for our Buds and Blossoms poem, we bring you To A Favorite Granddaughter from the pen of Dorothy Parker. Never love a simple lad. Guard against a wise, Sun a timid youth and sad, Hide from haunted yes. Never hold your heart in pain For an evU-doer; Never flip it down the lane To a gifted wooer. Never love a loving son, Nor a sheep astray; Gather up your skirts and run From a tender way. Never give away a tear, Never toss and pine; Should you heed my words, my dear. You’re no blood of mine.
