wSm
Today-Tuesday
Visualize the foundation plant
ing of shrubs and flowers around
your house five or ten years from
now and you will use fewer
plants, and set them further from
the house, says John H. Harris,
landscape specialist of the .State
College Extension Service. Most
people overplant around the foun
dation of their homes. Leave
open spaces between groups so
that the foundation will show; if
the foundation is undesirable to
he seen, use vines to correct this
situation, he advised.
Harris recommends that plants
be placed on either side of the
entrance, at corners of the house,
between windows, and grouped to
break a long straight line or
relieve the bleakness of an un
interesting wall. ‘‘Low flowers
and vines can often be used to an
advantage among the foundation
plantings. Such plants as peri
winkle, low phlox, verbena, ivy.
and low-growing shrubs add color
and interest t.-j the planting,” the
specialist stated.
‘‘.\void the monotonous plant
ing of shrubs all of the same
height and size. Use some tall-
growing, some low-growing, seme
upright, and some prostrate
plants to have a pleasing effect,”
he continued.
Some of the more important
reasons for beautifying the home
grounds with shrubs and flowers
arc listed by Harris as follows:
To create a picture by uniting
the separate elements, such as
walks, drives, house, and lawn In
to a pleasing and harmonious
whole; t o give inframement,
shade and background for the
buildings; to decorate, soften,
and add charm to the house, but
not to hide It; to screen off un
desirable views; to separate or
enclose certain areas; tnd to give
justification and make more nat
ural the curves in th walks and
drives.

CanninfiT Necessities
Told By Nutritionist
Thirty-two quarts of vegetables
and 24 quarts of fruits should be
canned for each member of the
famUy, says Mlse Mary B. Thom
as, nutritionist of the State Col
lege Extension Service. She also
recommends 10 quarts of canned
meats, 10 pounds of dried vege
tables, two quarts each of pre
serves and jam, and one quart
each of jelly, kraut, pickle and
relish for each person on the
farm.
Canning is the simplest and

“If all of the varieties of fruits

IN MEMORIAM
In loving memory of our de
parted brother, Lee 'Walsh, who,
on November 20, 1939, laying a-
side the garment of life, went
through the valley of the shadow
of death, into the glory of immor
ality’s endless day.
We of the L«wis Fork Baptist
church, desire to record our ap
preciation of him as a man, as a
citizen, as a Christian, as a
deacon, and as a fellow-worker in
our church. We shall sadly miss
his happy smile and cheerful dis
position. Wise in his counsel, al
ways loving and understanding
in his sympathies, generous and
sincere in his friendships, his
memory will live in our hearts.
He has passed from this life,
and will be absent lor awhile,
but one glad day we shall go to
join him In that land where
death never comes, and parting
Is unknown, for wo rejoice, as
he did, in the hope of a glorious
immortality.

tion. Though his earthly seat is the Senate and the country,
vacant, the light of his life and
character lives on, and Is an In
spiration to us to follow the ex
ample he set, and he prepared
when the final summons comes,
to join him In that better land.
We desire that a copy of
these expreesions of love be sent
to the family, one placed on the
minutes of tbe church, and one
sent to The Journal-Patriot for

McNary: “No one can ever fill
his place. He had a ■unique posi
tion in the Senate and his loss
will be greatly felt."
Chairman Pittman (D), Nev
committee: “At no time In any
of the questions in which wo were
opposed was Bcuah ever discourte
ous, Intolerant or even harsh. He
was a man of great character, in
dividuality and Independence. He
was among the greatest constitu
tional lawyers who ever sat in the
Senate.’’
Senator Adams (D), Col.; “He
was a great and kind man. Often
men are great but there are few
who could 'be as great as Borah
and who at the same time could
have hls' inherent kindness to
ward others.”
Senator Clark (D), Mo.; “Hls
death brings a grevlous loss to
the Senate and the nation. He
■was a wonderful man.’’
Speaker Bankhead: “In com
pany 'with all American citizens
who are familiar with his long
and Illustrious record in the Sen
ate of the United States, I am
deeply sorry and pained to learn
of the passing cf this outstanding
statesman who for so many years
has contributed by his intellectual
genius to the best traditions of
the Senate.
“I think that H is universally
recognized that there has' been no
debater in Congress for the last
quarter of a century who was his
superior in presenting his views
upon both domestic and interna
tional problems and his presence
and services will be greatly miss
ed in that forum, 'W'hich he has
adorned for so many years.”
Secretary Hull: “I was deeply
distressed to learn of the passing
of Senator Borah. Ills long record
of truly great service to the peo
ple of the nation will live in his
tory. In his death the country
loses a fearless statesman, ever
faithful to his principles.”
House Majority Leader Kay-
bum (D), Texas; “Senator Borah
was an outstandingly useful A-
merican and statesman. He will
be terribly missed.’’
House Minority Leader Martin
(R), Mass.: “The death of Sen
ator Borah removes a pictures
que and outstanding statesman,
an ardent champion of popular
causes. He will live long In the
memories of the American people.

Dr. Shaw recommends either
the 4-4-60 Bofdeanx mixture or
tho Onprooide “64Y” spray for
tbe control of strawberry leatspot
and scorch. The first application
should (be made a* soon m the
new leaf growth has started In
late February or early March. Ap
plications should 'be repeated at
10-day intervals 'until a few days
before the picking season begins.
The 4-4-60 Bordeaux mixture
Is composed of fooir pounds of
copper sulphate (blue stone) and
four pounds of chemically hydrat
ed lime to 60 gallons of water.
From five to 10 gallons of spray
■rill 'be required for each applica
tion on one-tenth of an acre of
strawberries, depending on the
type of sprayer used. A small
three-to-five gallon compressed
air knapsack or other hand-ope
rated sprayer Is recommended for
small areas, using either the Bor
deaux or Cuproclde sprays.
Cuprooide is a commercial
preparation, and is used at the
rate of 2 1-2 our ;es of the chem
ical to five gallons of water. From
five to 10 gallons per one-tenth
acre is also-required for each ap
plication of this spray.
