GARDNER Daffodils and tulips give us much pleasure In early spring and are to be found In most of our gardens. The question is: should they be taken up every year, evsry aeeond year, or every third jrear? It is not necessary BULLDOZING -And Grading Work Of All Kinds Iotla Mining Company Phases: Bay? 52 or W-J-i Night ? 116- J to Bft daffodils every year but It Is highly desirable that the bulbs be dug. divided, and re planted every third year. This will give them a better chance to tram and reproduce. If yours need to be moved, wait until tte leaves begin to turn yellow before digging. While the leaves by still green they are mannfarlring food and storing it in the bulbs for next year's flowers. They may be dug, divided, and replanted Immediately or they may the dried and stored In a cool place and held for fall planting. The tulip is somewhat different. Tulip bulbs should be taken up and replanted every second year. The bulbs may deteriorate rather rapidly and fjjr this reason it is sometimes best to buy fresh bulbs every year if large flowers are desired. If bulbs are to be re planted. do not dig them until the leaves turn yellow as was the case with daffodils.

Deep planting is not de sirable. Bearded iris do best in well , drained soils which dry out rather quickly. Cool weather in the spring fre quently interferes with fruit set ting on tomato plants. This is particularly true of the first two or three flower clusters that are formed. Hormones, or plant regu lators, applied to these first clus ters may give you earlier toma toes and more total production. They may be purchased from your seedsman under the trade names of "Blossom Set" or Pruitone". If you want to experiment, use one of these materials according to accompanying directions. Spray on the open blossoms with an atomizer or fine spray. Continued Fran Editorial Page STRICTLY PERSONAL By WTUMAK JONES If they had ever read even a sixth grade American history, they would know that the most revered Americans ? Washing ton, Adams, Jefferson, Franklin ? had radical ideas about their form of government. Ideas so radical, they rebelled against their form of government, and set up a brand new kind. These patron saints of our American form of government believed things could be Improved ? and that means chance. "This form of government that you want nobody to have any radical ideas about ? who set It -up? A group that didn't stop at being subversive; they were revolutionaries. And the very ideas on which this gov ernment rests were, and are, about as radical as any ever conceived. For What could be more revolutibnary than to be lieve in the good sense of the average man? than to go still farther and hold that the peo ple have a right to make their own decisions, even the wrong decisions? "I don't know whether this young man has any radical po litical ideas. What he thinks is not my business. I doubt if it is yours. "But go back and tell your superiors that this young man grew up in a state that was careful to write into its very constitution that 'the people . . . have the inherent, sole, and ex clusive right of altering or abol ishing their constitution and form of government . . "Go back and tell them that, in their zeal to protect the physical safety of this country, they have forgotten ? if they ever knew ? what it was that this nation was founded to do ... to assure all men the right to think what they will." Continued From Editorial Page Abolish Freedom To Prevent Its Abuse? scot-free" than have our Bill of Rights altered to do away with the Fifth Amendment. There is a move on now to do just that. It is a scheme to wipe out abuses of the Fifth Amendment by abolishing it. We put the plan in the same cate gory as the move to do away with the federal income tax ? without specifying where the U. S. could then get the money it needg for defense and other necessary government activities. Both are proposals that are "boobcatchers", i.e., ideas or plans without any merit that are calculated to have some special emotional appeal to boobs. Fortunately the liberal spirit ? and we don't mean ,'pseudo liberal", either ? is infinitely stronger than the boobcatchers, to say nothing of the whales whose spouts are showing. .Big, sturdy PULLETS The Franklin Pre?? and The High'.ands Maconian THURSDAY, MA* 9, 1951 PAGE (Unavoidably Omitted Last Week.
