Judging fronl the amount and
type of inquiries reaching my desk
in recent days, there are many
new "land" owners and most of
them are interested in gardens.
This ' is encouraging. People who
plan to ; remain in a place only
a shdrt -while jare not interested
in their grounds. Those who think
of their place as more or less
"permanent"-usually take an in
terest in plantmgrw,',,;
and repairing. I

interest in gar

During the; past week I had
the privilege of viewing two very
- attractive gardens! The one was
at Silverton, he other at Salem.

A large fire place has been added,

At Silverton, I stooi in the
archway formed from the huge
rlardrel hedge separating the gar-
dens of Mrs. George Steelhara
mer and Dr. and Mrs. R. J. Van
rlMve. The hedre. ' which has
-j grown remarkably fast, must be
15 feet tall ! and at least four
: wide. To the front of the homes
; this hedge makes an impenetrable
i wall, very formally separating the
neighbors. But at the back a large.
arch has been cut and a little
walk leads through in very
neighborly fashion. Mrs. Steel-
hamer has the back of her gar
den lined with flowering shrubs
and bright annuals. At the Van
cleave home the back is laid out

which we usually associated with

R. O. D. asks how to rid rises

worm which makes lace-work out

worm on trees and bushes." iv
Ans.: Dust or spray with lead
arsenate, or all-purpose spray or
dust They, are easily controlled.
C. W. M. reports all the leaves
are falling from his crabapple
tree. They turn black, then curl
up and fall off. He wants to know
should he spray. V
Ans.:Yes, use a ' bordeaux. It
may have to be repeated.
, A. L. B.i writes that he has
heard of a commercial sprayer
and wants to know if this refers
to someone who will come around
and spray a tree or two in a home
garden, and if so where can one
be found, i And what do they
charge?
Ans.: Yea, there are several men
who do custom spraying both in
the country and in towns. I think
the price varies somewhat with
the number of tree you have. As
you give your address as Salem,
call W. Gi Nibler at the county
agent's office at Salem and I am
sure he can direct you to someone
who does ,custom spraying. I do
not know j what the price is this
year at Salem. In some of the
smaller town the charge is $1 a
tree where there are, less than six
trees and 50 cents for each Jree
when there are more trees. One
advantage! in having a reliable
man spray your trees is that he
uses a power machine with much
more force than you can possibly
get with the smaller hand methods.
The spray is forced through all
the branches and spraying is, as
a rule, more thorough.

Jap Kamikaze
Strike at Sea
SEATTLE, June 30 - (IP) - The
U.S.S. Rail, a destroyer escort, was
berthed here today, for repairs af
ter a rendezvous with five Japan
ese kamikaze planes off Okinawa
the afternoon of April 12.
It lasted half an hour and at the
end the sturdy little ship had a
grotesque decoration the tail end
of one suicide plane sticking out
of a doorway after its wings had
been sheared off as it hit the quar
terdeck. Simultaneously the kami
kaze's 500 pound bomb, torn loose,
had kept right on going.
The Rail's skipper, Lt Cmdr.
Crittenden B. Taylor, Lima, Ohio,
said, "Luckily; nobody was in the
part of the ship where the bomb
hit, and only two men were near
the part ' of the ship hit by I the
plane. Yet our casualties were ex
tremely ! high (21 killed and 38
seriously wounded) because the
bursting shrapnel was so near the
port side"
Commander Taylor said four of
the attacking planes were shot
down into the sea three by the
Rail and the fourth by a nearby
cruiser. -The fifth was the only one
successful In pressing home his at
tack.
