Beautitying Greenfield Planned By Landscaper - ★ By PHIL WRIGHT Ralph Snell, city parks superin tendent, said last night that land scaping and drainage plans af fecting a widespread area in Greenfield park are being whip ped into shape as rapidly as time and equipment will permit. In making the announcement Snell disclosed that Robert Sturte vant, landscape architect of Nash 9fUe, Tenn., and the New England Stotes has been employed by the <*lty to help with the extensive plans which he has for Greenfield. In not too many years, Snell be lieves the motorist will be able to feast his eyes on a lake-circling scene of grandeur such as that which now enhances the north and west approaches to the lake. Snell also disclosed that a new and elaborate spillway will be built at Greenfield creek, at a point where the water now over flows at will when the rainy sea son is on. This step is necessar ily imminent, acco. ling to the superintendent, in order that an other calamity such as befell the plants at the lake last spring will not be repeated. Plans for the spillway or dam include tearing out all present abutments and revamping the out let with an entirely new struc ture. Channel walls will be made of concrete and' the bridge of masonry construction. Native rocks will be appropriately placed to add to the scenic and rustic beauty of the spillway. The new dam will have ample flood gates which will permit con trolled overflows and cause the regular water mark to be main tained at most seasons throughout the year. This, Snell said will tend to eliminate the possibility of over flooded areas, and during the dry seasons will help to retain enough water to furnish suitable moisture for plants in the immediate envi rons of the lake. Swimming in the lake, which IiaS I1UL UCCU cm.uui astu a o ivugu* during the past will also benefit by the new dam, it was learned. The park superintendent said that the late summer which caused excessively high tempera tures in the area until the Christ mas season this year delayed plans for planting dogwood's, aza leas, and camellias. “These plants will naturally be next on our sched ule,” he said. Water oaks which strangely enough will be planted away from the low water areas are also a next on the planned program of the parks commission. Mimosa, a small native tree, will also be planted this year. Vining roses will also be planted extensively this year in addition to the few the park now has. The Cherokee rose, of which there are : few in the park will find a wel- : come also, according to Snell. The . Cherokee is a single flowering ■ plant. He said that the plan does not include planting hybrid roses be cause of their timidity to the climate in this area. Various oth er shrubs for screening and to ' serve as a background for smaller : flowering plants are also included : in the present plans. Extensive drainage plans are 1 also scheduled for the year. Super intendent Snell said plans include clearing and grubbing new areas : to be further beautified with azaleas and camellias and other shrubs, as well as to preserve ex isting native plants throughout the areas to be cultivated. This will take a long time, it was explained as maintenance sched ules are now behind because of the shortage of help and facilities the park has experienced during recent months. Regarding future planting the superintendent said plans will not include any planting that may not be maintained properly. “We are going slow on our program, trying to project ourselves into the future, so we can have a good estimate of what can be properly cared for before making additional plans,” he said. MCALLISTER NAMED SAFETY DIRECTOR C. H. McAllister was appointed safety chairman for the Wilming ton chapter American Red Cross yesterday according to J. Henrj Gerdes, chairman. McAllister will appoint soon three committee sub-chairmen for first aid, water safety and acci dent prevention. The chapter has taught 345 classes in first aid and has certificated 6,000 persons. Since the end of the war the safety program of the chapter has been dormant but the need for safety is evidenced every day and the chapter is anxious to revitalizt its program, McAllister explained.

HENSEL DEFENDS DUTCH TRAINING WASHINGTON, Jan. 14.—OJ.R)— The Navy explained today that it had trained 5,000 Dutch Marines only for use against the Japanese in the Netherlands East Indies Its position was set forth hy Act ing Secretary H. Struve Hensel in reply to recent charges by Rep. Ellis E. Patterson, D., Calif., that the Navy had defied U. S. foreign policy by training and outfitting Dutch forces used to quell Indone sian uprisings. Hensel, in a letter to Rep. Jack Anderson, R., Calif., made no reference to Patterson’s specific charge that the Dutch Marines were used against the Indonesians. He explained that the Navy agreed in 1943 to train the Dutch Marines, “having particularly in mind operations which might have to be undertaken against the Dutch East Indies to free them from the Japanese.” Japan surrendered while the Dutch were being strain ed at Camp Davis, N. C., he said, but the training was carried to completion so the Marines could participate in disarming Japanese in the Pacific. This, he said', was done with the support of the U. S. chiefs of staff who refused, however, to sanction the training of any new, troops aft er V-J Day. - As for outfitting the Dutch, Hensel said that plans for supply ing them for operations against the Japanese were perfected be fore VJ-Day, but that the equip ment was not delivered when lend-lease was terminated. He said that when the foreign econo mic administration refused to make a credit arrangement, the Dutch purchased the supplies for $13,670,831 cash. Hensel defended the Navy part in training the Dutch, saying it was “entirely in keeping with the foreign and military policies of the government.” VETERAN DECLARES CANDIDACY FOR SHERIFF’S OFFICE First New Hanoverian to pub licly declare himself a candidate for a major county elective post in the coming primary Mack C.

Thomas Hart, R., Conn., who is 69 years old, will retire from office at the end of this year be cause he believes too many old men hold seats in the Senate, it was disclosed today. Hart’s statement that he would not seek re-election was made in a letter to Gov. Raymond E. Bald win. The Senator said that for years it has been true that men of too advanced age have held seats in the Senate. I shall not be one of that category.” He pointed out that election to a six year term would place him well into the seventies. Hart was ap pointed to the Senate last year to fill the unexpired term of the late Sen. Francis Maloney, D. TAR HbbL UARUbNbK The nurserymen have a slogan which reads “it is not a home until it is planted.” This slogan is intended to include the planting of fruit trees. It might be a home without fruit, but it will not be one of the best. . The first step in growing fruit is to plant good varieties. I am listing below a suggested list for home use along with the number needed for the average family. It should be understood, of course, that the varieties will vary som?*. what in different parts of the state and the number needed will vary according to the taste and needs of the family. Here is the proposed list: Three apple trees composed of such varieties as Delicious, Stay man, Red Winesap, Golden Deli cious, or Ben Davis. The Golden Delicious or Ben Davis should not be omitted, as these varieties are needed to pollinate the others for the best set of fruit. Three peach trees—Golden Jubilee, Belle of Georgia, or Elberta. Two Shrop shire Damson plum trees; two Montmorency cherry trees; two Celeste or Turke~y fig trees; two Kieffer or Waite pear trees; and two Stuart pecan trees. Two black walnut trees; ten bunch grape vines; three Muscadine grape vines; twenty-five young or boy senberry plants (dewberries) and 100 Massey or Blakemore straw berry plants. In the mountains, peaches, figs, plums and Musca dine grapes are not adapted. For this section Green River or Indi ana pecans are recommended in stead of the Stuart. The care of these plants, espe cially spraying is very important and will be taken up in a later article. THROWS AWAY HIS ‘LUCK* ST.LOUIS (U.R)—“I’m not super stitious,” insisted Dick Creegan, Daily Record reporter, “but when can I buy another rabbit’s foot? “Five years ago,” he explained, “a friend gave me a lucky rabbit foot key ring and I never lost, mis placed or forgot my keys until I threw it away the other day and within the hour I lost every key I owned.” HUNTER, 81, SHOWS SPEED DAYTON, Pa.

Presto: Lettuce On Cactus Soil By RALPH DIGHTON . AP Newsfeautres PHOENIX, Ariz. Jan. 14 — Two hundred lifty thousand green acres in the heart of Arizona testify that this booming baby state of the union isn’t all sand, cactus and tourists. One of the richest agricultural sections in the United States, the verdant Salt River Valley in which this state capital is situated sprawls between high, scenic mountains which shed the sparse rainfall on. to potentially fertile soil. By storing and scientifically dis tributing runoff waters, central Arizona farmers since the turn of the century have transformed an arid waste into vast fields of highly profitable grapefruit, or anges, limes and lettuce. Throne Behind the Power Back of this transformation is a quasi-municipal corporation call ed the Salt River Valley Water Users Association. Virtually a government within a government, the association has taxing powers and holds biennial elections among its 16,000 landowner members. Formed in 1903 as a govern ment-sponsored irrigation project, the association has grown from a small green spot on Maricopa county’s map—an area hardly larger than that once irrigated by prehistoric Indians along the salt river—to 250,000 acres. To this acreage flows each year 1,350.000 acre feet of water. That’s a lot of acre feet, and an acre foot is in itself a lot of water —enough to cover an acre of land to the depth of one foot. All this could be done only by making the water available at ex tremely low cost. The average price of an acre foot of water sup plied by the association, a non profit organization, is $1.75. To visualize what this means in terms understandable to the own er of a 50-by-100 foot city lot, imagine paying only 60 cents for enough water to keep the lawn green all the year around. And this in a hot, dry climate where the mercury bubbles up to 120 degrees in tl},e long summer and seldom falls below freezing in mid winter-. Lin B. Orme, president of the association and head of its 11-man board of governors, has spent most of his lifetime bringing the association to maturity. A char ter member of the association. Orme now is in his seventies. The years rest lightly on his square shoulders, however, and Orme spends full working days in his basement office through the end less difficulties bound to arise in a 45 million dollar corporation. “Although our irrigation devel opment is what you see first,” says Orme, “and, although irriga tion is the original purpose of our organization, the water project ac counts for only about a third of cur total investment. “What you don’t see, ana what constitutes two-thirds of our in vestment, is our power develop ment. In storing and distributing all this water, we found that we were missing a very good bet_ electric power. “We are the biggest power in dustry in the state. From our eight water power plants, and our one steam and one diesel plant, we produce 700 million kilowatt hours annually. Our gross power sales top four and a half million dollars a year. Aside from the big ipmes and industrial users, we supply 11,000 domestic cus tomers—al] rural v “The local power company,” Orme points out, "sells power at about one and a half cents per kilowatt, and that is in closely populated areas. We supply scat tered rural users for less than one cent.” Look to More Water All this water and power comes from a system of dams along the Salt and Verde rivers which con verge northeast of Phoeniz. But not far away is another source of even more water and power—the Colorado river. "It is quite an achievement, what we’ve done out here on the desert,” admits Orme. “But it isn’t enough. The farms now be ing irrigated need more water. And there are thousands of acres not now cultivated which are just as rich potentially. “Millions ot additional acre feet will be made available when the Colorado river development, held in abeyance during the war and now slated to be pushed fast with the release of building and con struction materials, becomes a reality. There are some very se rious legal obstacles to be sur mounted, but if that much more water can be diverted to Arizona wasteland reasonably, I sincerely and honestly see no limit to Ari zona’s agricultural growth.” Feeding water into two canals to transform desert lands into orchards are these water gates of the irrigation project of the Salt River Valley Water Users’ Association.
