With Care You
Can Sow Now For
Rowers in 1949
When it comet to towing seed,
men have Improved on nature In
some reaped. In preparing the
seed bed, spacing the seed and
covering It, they avoid the lavish
waste which characterize na
ture's melhodi. But In timing
teed towing, nature's way It
utually the best.
Annual floweri drop their teed
In late aummer and fall. Manv
tall on hard toil, and fall to find
cover; but those which do to will
grow and. If hardy varieties, will
produce superior plantt for next
year's flowering. They bloom
earlier than plantt grown from
spring sown seed, and sturdier
than those started In a green
house. But to make every seed pro
duce a plant, car must be taken
to overcome numerous hazards.
Seeds or seedling plants may
drown in locations where water
fails to drain off promptly; they
may be washed out of the soil by
heavy rains, or decay In toll that
remains wet too long. Wherever
several annuals commonly seed
themselves, conditions are likely
to be favorable for other varie
ties. In a garden where no an
nuals selfseed. It will be prudent
to prepare a special bed for fall
sowing, with the surface raised
several inches to insure good
drainage, and surrounded by a
wooden curb several Inches high,
to prevent rains washing over It.
Vari.it.. auaaaat.d
No. 1 candidate for fall sowing
Is the annual larkspur. This Is
flower that takes a long time to
germinate, and demands cool
weather In which to do it. It Is so
hardy that when It drops seed in
a favorable place, its tiny seed
lings develop In the fall and live
through the most severe winters
unharmed. If possible, seed
should be sown in the place
where the flowers are wanted,
since It is seldom practical to
transplant this subject.
Shirley popples, calliopsis, can
dytuft, cosmos, the fragrant
nicotians, and all colors of bach
elor button are as hardy as
oaks, and will grow from fall
sown seed unless destroyed by
one of the special winter hazards
which have been mentioned.
These alto are seldom trans
planted. Since they grow with
out difficulty from spring sown
seed, there Is not the same need
for fall sowing that exists with
the annual larkspur, but plants
from fall sowing give flowers
earlier, and are much more vig
orous than greenhouse or hot-bed
in the spring, in the attempt to
get early flowers.
When bulbs are planted alone
in heda or borders, hardy an
nuals may he sown In the same
place this fall, to blossom after
the bulha haee flowered and
their foliage has disappeared.
Rows of hardy annuals suitable
for cut flowers may be sown In
the vegetable plot, after It has
been spaded this fall.

Boy in Hospital
With Gun Wound
HOOD RIVER, Oct. 20 (.11
A small-boy quarrel that started
with words and rock throwing
ended with a 7-year-old hospital
ized with a serious gunshot

David Mlnner, 13, and Molvln
Curlln. 9. both Negro youths, the
latter a brother of the wounded
boy. are in custody of Sheriff R.
L. Gillmouthe.
The sheriff said he Jiad pieced
together this story:
The boys were playing on a
ranch in the line Gruve district
near here on t heir way home
from school. The brothers teased
Mlnner and he became angry and
started going after them wlih his
fists. Kixks were thrown at him
and the sheriff says Mlnner told
him he became so Infuriated that
he got his father's gun and fired
In their direction to scare the
brot hers.
Later, young Mlnner was
quilted as saying, the 7-vear-old
Curlln boy confronted him. Mln
ner thinking he saw a gun In the
boy's hand, fired once. The bov
fell, gravely wounded.
Minnrr reported that the 9-
yearold Curlln boy fired a shot-
CurHn, came here from Texas to
work In the fruit harvest. Mlnner
is the son of Mrs. Rose Lee Mln
ner, Portland, the sheriff said.
Scantier Bathing Suits
Decreed for Next Year
PORTLAND m Don't look
now, but bathing suits will be
more scanty than ever next year.
That's what Mildred Bedell,
stylist for a local store, said after
looking over style centers en
route from New York.
Skirts also "may be a little
shorter" next spring she said.
In headgear milady apparently
will have a choice but not on
middle ground. The top-flight In
style will be the very large hat,
but small hats also will be pop
ular, she predicted.
Men will be Interested In her
price forecast: about the same.
China's Russians
Drop Red Papers
SHANGHAI (JP) "I, Gennady
L Kishko, hereby Hectare thai I
have returned . . . my passport to
the USSR Consulate and hereby
do not consider myself a Soviet
citizen and have applied to the
Chinese government for a ttate
less certificate ..."
Such renunciations of Soviet
citizenship are becoming increas
ingly frequent in Shanghai's En
glish-language dallies. The above !
appeared In the Shanghai Eve
ning Post alongside a similar an
nouncement by an Alexander Ko
toff. In the morning papers there
had been other announcements by
other Russians declaring their
preference for the uncertainties
of a stateless status rather than
continue to be Soviet citizens.
The tide, which began shortly
after V-J Dav with a wholesale
acceptance of a blanket Soviet
offer of citizenship by China's
thousands of expatriate Russians,
has begun to turn. Some sav the
sharpening antagonism between
the U. S. and the Soviet Union Is
the cause. Others point up the re
cent case of the Russian school
teachers In New York as the Im
mediate reason for surrendering
nea passports.

Berlin Commies
Import Police To
Tighten Blockade
BERLIN. Oct. 21 (JPt The
German anti Communist press
saia yesieraay Benin s commu
nists are importing 3.000 special
police from the Russian occupa
tion zone to strengthen their hand
in this Soviet blockaded city.
William T. Babcock, U. S. dep
uty commandant, said American
authorities could not confirm
these figures. He said, however,
that the Americans are aware the
Communists are expanding their
police forces throughout Eastern
Germany, including Berlin.
One Immediate use for expand
ed police forces here, Babcock
said Is to employ them in tighten
ing of the Soviet blockade against
Western Berlin.
This blockade has now been ex
tended to search of all vehicular,
train and water traffic for con
fiscation of foodstuffs and other
allegedly "contraband" material
being brought in by Germans
from the Soviet zone.
The antl-Communlsts have con
tended these police are packed
with Communist - indoctrinated
former German soldiers and form
a Communist Army to threaten
western Germany if, and when,
all occupation forces are with
drawn from the country.
Meanwhile, the Russian-licens
ed News Agency ADN reported
mat tnrougnoui tne soviet zone
weapons were being handed to
new groups of the People's Police.
The arms were handed to the
police by delegations of factory
workers, which were described as 1
"symbolic of the close ties be
tween the workers and their
People's Police."
Admlttanct of Mort
Foreign Students Urged
WASHINGTON, Oct 21. UP)
A recommendation that the
United States admit more stud
ents and other visitors from "bar
ricaded" Eastern Europe went to
Secretary of State Marshall yes
terday from a group of American
educators.
The new United States Advis
ory Commission on educational
exchange said this country should
adopt a more liberal policy, par
ticularly in admitting persons
from Communist-run lands to at
tend "reputable" international
conferences here.
Give Tulips Time
To Grow For Next
Winter Flowers
Tulips and daffodils can be
flnuat-ttH In lh hnma
ed In pots, in what the florists
can guuu suiting son. iwo parts
of your best top garden soli, one
part sand and one part of peat
mnmm ulll main m anrtA ,V.al....
Add more sand if the top soil is
heavy, thoroughly mix and run
through a tt-inch mesh screen.
Place each bulb so that Its point
Is half an inch below the surface.
Now it is necessary to allow
the bulb to make roots; and for
this purpose the pot must be plac
ed in a dark and cool place, where
it cannot freeze or dry out too
much. A cold frame, where It can
be covered with leaves, ashes or
sand, will do.
When placed in this storage the
pot should be thoroughly soaked,
and no further watering should
be necessary. If stored in an in-
door cellar or closet the soil
should be prevented form drying
out excessively. Root action will
follow and when top growth be
gins the pot may be brought in
doors or kept In the storage place
and so retarded until wanted.
After being brought indoors
the pot must be given all the light
possible and kept in a tempera
ture which averages 60 degrees
until stems, leaves and flower
buds are formed. After buds are
formed a temperature of 70 de
grees will bring out the flowers,
and if haste is needed a higher
temperature will produce it
