I There's EXTRA SAFETY in the Tire that OUTTJEARS PREOflEl TIRES While many postwar pcoducts are still in the dream stage, one is not . . . the new poacwar B.F.Goodrich Si I renown that OUTWEARS PREWAR TIRES. It's been produced . . . and what is more . . . in the past twelve months it's been delivered to car owners in greater quantities than any tire in B.F.Goodrich history. Of course, many car owners have heard about the thousands of extra miles of service from the broader, flatter tread that covers more road area and gives greater protection against skid ding. They know about the 35fr stronger cord body that gives better resistance to road shocks and bruising. It's no wonder the factory's out standing production has been taxed keeping up with this extra demand. But this is one product you can take out of your dream book . . . it't here. If you'll be needing new tires soon . . . check with us today for the tire that's worth much more but costs no more the B F.Goodrich Silvertowa that OUTWEARS PREWAR TIRES. f DONTT FOQGET W t C0WVKlNT Iff riiM TCOMS Cah ae ZBO HHP FIGHT INFANTUM PARALYSIS OfVff TO THI MARCH OF DIMtS 1S3 S.

I noted it at a show last summer and its long, fine buds and its coloring j held my attention. Members of ( the Salem Rose Society have. I know, ordered some of this vari- ' ety. and the rose show goers will I be looking forward to seeing the blooms at Salem. Although some rose folk have said the Rubaiyat did not seem too husky a bush, the one I re- ' ceived is strong and healthy ap- ' pearing. I hope it will continue to be so in my garden. Thanks to the Salem rose grower who sent me the bush! j Do's and Don't far January I Do fork over the compost pile. Don't put water on the foliage of your African violet when you wa ter it. Water it from the bottom. Water spots the foliage. Do order the rose bushes you want early. Don't break the ice on your fish pond if there are fish in the water. Nature prov ides for -air for breathing. Do send for the seed for the new perennials you want. Don't wait until the day you are ready to plant and then be exasperated at your dealer because he is freshly out of Mrs. Dwight D. Eisenhower petunia or never had any. If you ask him in time, he might be 1 able to get some for you or tell you where you could. Do give your local dealers a try for the new things. Don't think that because he happens to live in your home tiwn he may never have heard of Cuthbertson sweet peas or Charlotte Armstrong ros es He may have heard about them even before you read about them in your eastern garden magazine. Do prune your trees before the sap begins to rise Don't prune your spr.ng flowering shrubs now jus! because you feel garden-am-: bition beginning to sprout. Garden Calendar January 23.

Stayton Garden club Question and Answers A. C writes that he read that Fred Edmunds believes fall plant ing of ro;es is best. A. C. says he has always planted his in Febru ary and has had very good "luck" with them. Ans : Mr. Edmunds is our top man on rifse culture in the west, and I don't believe the east can boast about having one much bet ter What he says is the last word so far as I go in rose culture. By which I do not mean that I al ways follow his advice, even when I know I should. However, those of you who have followed my col umn may recall that I like best to plant my roses on Thanksgiv ing day. although I may be caught doing it almost any day of the ' year. That the fall is the best time does not aay that it is the only time. Maybe A. C. might have better luck were he to try fall planting onee. F. S. writes that she overheard someone describing Ola Kala in such glowing colors that she de cided she must have one - - only she doesn't know what it is. She wondered, is it a rose? Ans.: Very fortunately I just finished reading my late "Horti culture," or. I, too, would probably be at a loss. Ola Kala is an iris, ranking second, says Horticulture, in the iris hit parade for 1948. It is a bright yellow and it does sound good. S. R. says she is from the east (almost every fourth letter I re ceive Is from the east. Our pop ulation must be growing) and that there the gardeners guarded ash es very carefully for garden use while here they seem so wasteful of them. Ans : I may be contradicted on this: but the eastern hardwood ashes have more value in both potash and nitrogen than do our western soft-wood ashes. How ever, ashes are good, even here in the west, to lighten too heavy ground. The akrf""- SaI Oregon, Sunday. January H, 1947 11 elected to the cane fruit control board for the coming year.
