Si .11 14 The News-Review, Roieburg, Ore. Mon., June 27, 1960 With The Garden Clubs Around Douglas County There is still time to plant gladi olus if you haven't been able to plant them up to now. They give so much for just a little extra care. Be sure to buy good corms to start with. Soak the corms in a solution of lVt table spoons lysol to one gallon water. Plant them in soil that has been made humus rich with manure and green cover crops. Work some bone meal or super phosphate into the soil in the bottom of the trench when planting. Different varieties may be plant ed So they will produce a succes sion of bloom. Glads feed better, get more moisture and stand wind and storms better when planted deep. Large corms should be set 6" to 7" deep and none should be less than 4 inches deep. Give them a feeding of liquid fertilizer (4-12-4) when they are about 6 inches high; three table spoons to one gallon of water. Feed again when plants are half grown. Start dusting with DDT when plants are about 6 inches high, and dust about once every two weeks for thrip control. Glads need the same amount of water as other growing plants, but during blooming time, soak them well. Cultivate just enough to destroy the weeds. Glads grow best in full sun, but since sun is hard on the open blooms, they may be cut when first florets open. Leave at least four leaves on the plant when cut ting, so bulbs will mature. Dig glads in fall when foliage begins to turn. If the weather is warm and sunny, cut the tops off close to the corm and dry the f corms in a shed or other place available. Before freezing weather, place corms over one inch size on trays. Smaller corms may go in cardboard boxes, but should not be packed over 3 inches deep. The mam thing in storing the corms is to keep them dry and cool. Also dust with DDT in storage to keep out thrip.

To transplant them to vour gar den, find the plants you want and then watch them grow. Some will need well-drained soil in full sun. some shade and more moisture. Pick a spot in your garden as near like their natural spot as you can. Transplant as early as pos sible or after they have blossomed. if vou think thev mav be hard to move, watch the. seed and as Rnnn an it. is rinp nw it in tha prepared bed. Remeber that most wild flowers die down soon after the seed ripens and many times the leaves die leaving just the seed stalk standing. So if you transplant them, wait until the next year before ' you give them up for dead. , Lady Slippar Is Rar One of the rarer wild flowers is the orchid we call a Lady Slipper. This flower used to be quite abun dant but because it grows in the fir timber it is dying out wherever land has been logged off. It is easy to transplant because the bulb grows close to the surface. In the loose moss' and woods dirt. But it is not so easy to keep because of its needs.

The 12th of the television acad emy award festivals has come and gone, and for once, everyone seems happy with it. No one can argue with the presentation of acting awards to Ingrid Bergman and Laurence Olivier. . This year's event did away with a lot of the incongruities of the past. A major advance is ' the awarding of prizes by the season, rather than the calendar year. The movies have no season, so it makes sense to bunch film awards into a year s product. But the i TV bigtime extends from September to June and its awards should be seasonal. The academy wisely put an end to its long attempt to award everything in sight. The number of Emmies was cut in half this FOOD PRICES DROP PORTLAND (AP) Retail food prices in the Portland area dropped sharply between April and May, the U. S. Bureau of La bor Statistics says. - , It reported Friday an over-the-month decline of .7 per cent with falling meat, poultry, fish, fruit and vegetable prices. The prices, however, still re main .3 per cent higher than in the same period a -year ago. year, and the present total is just about ngnt. There are still some inanities in the selections. It's hard to see the logic of having individual shows run against series. For in stance, weekly programs like Danny ' 'Thomas's and Dinah Shore's were pitted against a single Art Carney special. It was not surprising that the Carney show won. ' For a long time, reporters cov ering the Emmies were hard put to figure out which were the most important awards. This issue is clearcut with the Oscars: The best actor and actress naturally get the top attention. But the Emmy categories were so diverse that it was hard to narrow down which deserved the headlines.. Last Monday night's awards settled it. The top TV awards are those for best actor and actress in a single performance. A cate gory that has an Olivier and a Bergman as winners has got to be tops.
