BULB-PLANTTING
Bulbs should be planted during
October and November. The peb
ble-and-water method of growing
these flowers indoors is the sim
plest way to grow the plants.
Bulbs that are easy to force
are Roman hlacinths, paper white
narcissi, Dutch hyacinth, crocus,
tulips, many of the old-fashioned
daffodils, freesias, and lily-of-the
valley.
To grow bulbs indoors select a
container that will hold water,
pour in pebbles until the contain
er is about three fourths full,
place the bulb in position, and add
just enough water to moisten the
pebbles, but not enough to touch
the bulbs. Some recommend plac
ing the bulbs in a cool, dark place
until the roots are about two inch
es long, but this makes the stems
too long for some flow’er-lovers.
Bulbs should not be kept in a
room that is too hot The tempera
ture should range from sixty to
seventy degrees, keeping the wa
ter level just below the bottom of
the bulb itslf. “To keep a succes
sion of flowers, bulbs should be
potted at intervals from Septem
ber through January.
For outdoor plantings, the spec
ialist recommends a shady posi
tion for winter-aconite, snowdrop,
the Regal lillies; part shade for
snowflakes, wood hyacinth, other
lillies, and daffodils and various
narcissi.
The colors of the various spe
cies of lillies are as follows: Ma
donna, white; Crocus, white and

yellow; Regal, white witji wine
stripes; Canadense and Henryi,
orange.
PUBLIC RESENTMENT
THE ONLY CURB
Since the World War, Great
Britain’s national debt increased
only $2,000,000,000, up to the end
of last year.
In the nine years since depres
sion struck the United States, the
national debt has increased more
than $25,000,000,000.
In those two sets of figures
you see vividly illustrated the
magnitude and gravity of our
debt problem. No nation in the
world has been so prodigal as we
in spending what we have not
earned. In no nation has the
national debt—which means a
mortgage against all that we
have, and all that may be produc
ed by our children —soared so rap
idly or so high.
Worst of all, the debt
grows more meancing every day.
The national budget is almost as
far out of balance now as it was
early in the depression. In spite
of the highest and greatest num
ber of taxes in our national his
tory, the Federal government con
tinues to spend billions more than
it receives in revenue each year.
It is obvious that we can ex
pect no help from the politicians
—they will spend and spend and
spend as long as the voters ac
quiesce. The solution must come
from public rebellion against
wasteful spending There must be
an end to Federal competition
with business and financing proj
ects which are purely local and
ten years ago would have been
paid for with local money. There
must be an end to grab-bag tac
tics by countries, municipalities,
states. There must be an end to
the insane delusion that we can
get something for nothing.
THAT SCHOOL LUNCH
Once again magazines and some
departments in papers carry ar
ticles filled with directions as to
foods for the school lunch and
suggestions as to preparation.
Most of these are good, some be
ing more practical than others.
But there is one trouble about
them: One and all, they presup
pose or insist that a regular lunch
box be carried by the child. And
not one tells how to proceed when
the child in the reader’s home re
fuses to carry anything more elab
orate or weighty than a paper bag
which may be discarded after
lunchtime. Mothers may prefer
packing a lunch that contains all
vitamins, calories and such that
experts advise; but when a
youngster flatly declares he’d
rather do without food than to lug
a box and bottle back and forth
dailv, what’s the best thing to be
done ?
SETTING FRUIT TREES
Fruit and nut trees may be set
anytime during the winter in
Eastern North Carolina. In the
western section, where weather
conditions are often severe, plant
ing may be delayed until spring,
Grapes and other small fruit may
be planted in the fall or spring. In
setting out the young trees, be
sure that they are planted from
one to two inches deeper than they
stood in the nursery row. The hole
should be wide enough to receive
the roots without bending them
from their natural position. Apple
and pear trees should be set at
least 35 feet apart, with peach,
plum, and cherry trees as much as
26 feet apart.
Actions always speak louder
than words.
