Hofor Talk to the Members of the Salem J Floral Society "Consider the lilies of the field. how they'srow; they toil not. neither do they spin: And yet i say unto you. That even Solomon In H his glory was not arrayed like one of these." (The Salem Floral society sends to The Statesman the fol lowing: "The enclosed papr which was read at the - regular meetlnr of the Salem Floral So- tmw on VriAaV will dnuhtleSS t9 ot interest to yonr readers." Fol lowing Is tne pager menuonea.; BulbM For April Of course, Salem has been to ed the Gladiolus C ty and this flower should be planted gener ously. Consult your catalogs, or a good dealer, on mass plantation that ts effective masses of co.or instead of a great variety. A fine effect can be secured with a single variety, but still better y planting several shades of yellows, lavender, or a masa ot white. Still finer Tor showing off the city is a mass of two to four brilliant red?. The mass plant'ngs advertise the city and educate the beholder to want quantities of flowers. For early gladiolus plant at once, and plant some a month later and even the last week In June, tor the latest blooms. Lilies are a good bet In April. They require ' deep, fine e.tu with well rotted manure if possi ble but will do well in any crum bly loam or even red so!J without fertiliser. Put a stake by each l ly bulb as they will want pro tection against winds. Our grea native Santiam lily should be there.

The gold banded Auratum and the Ma. donna lily do well planted in April. A new lily is the Regal from China or Japan a glorious combinat on of lemon and white. Easter lily bulbs can also be used If you can get them. The Ranunculus has been won derfully improved and is a bulb that more adventurous florists should plant in the open. In the new Anemones the St. Brigid in all colors is a tine thing. Anemones are lovely, coming with the earliest snow drops, but will not associate with weeds any weed will k:ll them out. a new iiovver ior April plant ing is the Mexican Ti'gridia, with large showy flowers on stems five to six inches long. Tbe axias in all colors and tub eroses should go into the ground this month. The former is a rich flowering plant about fifteen inch es h'gh. Of course, later in the month dahlias are going in on a large scale. For effects, again growers should be cautioned U get masses of one color or varie ty. Set a stake with each root. Perennials All of the April perennials can be set out and even flowering Bhrubs do well. If shr,ubs are planted prepare the soil well an-J set in water and cut down neat the ground. Among hardy per ennials (here are none better than Shasta daisy and Golden - Glow, both easy to grow and producing large quant-ties 'of flowers. It 1 a. mistake to allow Shasta daisies to stand in a clump for years. They should be separated ant. planted anew every two years, and for the finest flowers set out new plantings every year. Two grand perennials , are Deronicum and Canterbury Belles. Some Other April Plantinirs Cannas and castor beans should be got out at once . Geraniums in all colors should be made sure of. The prices are moderate li bought in quantities. Do not for get the old favor'tes ich as bleedingheart, coreopsis, larkspur Or delphinium, uhiox. nink miu sweet Williams, scabiosas and snapdragons. April is the gail- lardia month, and this is a flow er all should grow, for it starts early and if kept cut off and not let go to seed, will bloom until Christmas. It is a living exem plar of the lavishness and gejter osity of nature, and all flowers bloom ten-fold if given freely to .friends and to those we love, or the unfortunate who have no flowers. We must not forget the chrysanthemums for fall flowers are best planted this month. Growing Home Annua Here is an alphabetical list o' flowers that do well if planted in boxes, flats, hotbeds . or under windows and later transplanted. You will get quicker results If you get light sandy loam for your boxes, not too rich, and set where tney can be covered In case of frost. The 1st to plant from seeds as above is as follows: Af- r.can daisies, white or yellow: Ageratum, Asters. Ralsara. Cal- lieopsis. Candy tuff, Clarkla, Cocks comb, Godetia, Lobelia, Annual Larkspur Lupines. Marigold. Mig nonette, Nicotians, Verbena Zin nia. It is difficult to prow plant o' cosmos, pansy, petunia and salvia at home. Better buy plants from growers who will have them ready ior yoq in "May or .June. April is the latest t'me for starting sweet pens, although good results can still be obtained. There are oth er beautiful flowering plants that cannot well be p'anted In boxes and might be started the latter part of this month such as the an. nnal poppies which do best plant ed in the open. There Is a very sweet flower, the seed of which Is named Thnnbergia (black-eyed Susan) that w ll bear sow' rig in the open. Flower lovers will rec ognUe friends In th's list and ir seed cannot be obtained plants of nearly all these varieties are to be had at' the greenhouses, fn conclusion. April is a month to try the patience of flower growers when It ! comes to cultivation. Still .it is best to watch your soil and stir the surface at every op portunity and learn to cultivate without teaving footprints in the flower beds. It pays this month to use fertilizers, such as old barnyard manure or well rotted street sweepings, scattered' lightly among the young plants. The mulch helps the soil and is vrry nourishing and stimulating to the baby plants. ditions in Oregon are favorable i for the development of the flax Industry, but that it has been handicapped heretofore by lack of continuous successful manage ment. I hope that under the present conditions the Industry may have an opportunity to pro gress under Mr. Crawford's able management for a surncient se ries of years to demonstrate clear ly the .possibilities of flax fiber production in that region. While It might be possible, with abundant funds, to have se cured 10,000 acres instead of 1, 009, it aeems better to have started in with a reasonable amount and allow room for de velopment. One of the dangers in a new Industry like this is at tempting to start at the top In stead of beginning in a modest way and growing up. While it is impossible to pre dict what the future market may be, numerous statements In the textile papers in this country, and more especially those com ing to my attention from Europe, indicate that the outlook is fav orable for a good market and a keen demand for flax fiber.

The letter was dated at Washington, March 27. and it was written to; Mrs. W. P. Lord by LVster H. Dewev. bota nist In charge of plants, bureau of plant Industry. United States department of agriculture. Fol lowing is the letter:) Your two letters regarding pro gress in the flax industry in Ore gon are received. I am very glad to note that progress is actually being made there, and I agree with you that the establishment of a coopera tive company, independent of po litical conditions, is positive evi- dence of real progress and I am especially glad to note that the company has been so fortunate as to secure the services of Mr. Crawford to direct the", work. I was well pleased with the work which he showed to me at the penitentiary when I visited Salem two years ago. The history of the. flax industry as you have re counted it to me heretofore and also in one of these letters in dicates very clearly that the con- which formerly supplied 75 "to 80 per cent of the flx fiber of the world, now has less than 6 per cent of its former supplies available for export. There have been increases In tbe flax acre age In Germany, Canada and Japan, but not enough to make up for tbe decrease in Russia and except In Japan scarcely enough Co provide for home consump tion. The flax fiber from Japan has not entered into the world's market to any considerable ex tent. I do not look for a return, of the abnormally ,. high prices of 1930, and I do net believe that Xrk in,: ,:& - t ,r.- Suggested bg fbnrueHtlTSt& moasmx2 Today Tomorrow Saturday 8) Seamless Hot Water Bottles and Combination Syringes Guaranteed Not To Leak Prices from $1 up Brewer Drug Co. 405 Court St Phone 114 Do You Know Do You Know Do You Know Do You Know We are Sales Representatives for Sherman Clay & Co.'s Entire Piano Line? . . ;f' Sherman Clay & Co.'s Piano Line comprises Steinway, Weber, A B.
