- Snowdrops should go Into the
ground now at anytime. Plant
them in groups in partial shade.
Under a shrub that doesn't branch
too close to the ground is a good
place. Set them from 2 to 3
Inches deep depending upon
whether the soil is heavy ,or
rather loose. If it is sandy, set
them three inches deep. It should
be comparatively friable if the
snowdrops are to do well. Fritil
arias, which we are using more
and more In shady ptaces, should
go into the ground now. They do
rather well in comparative sun
shine too, but they grow larger if
given a light shade. They seem to
do very well about three feet from
the trunk of a fair-sized oak tree.
Pansy and viola seed should be
planted at "once. The soil should
be prepared carefully to grow a
good root system and the plants

Questions and Answers
O. M, sends a bit of a shrub
she wants identified. .
k i Ans.: This is the bell-heather.
Erica Cinerea, and it is a lovely
little shrub, growing, no more
b than 18 inches high, in the gar-
gen. It blooms most of the sum
mer and seems to crave very lit
tle attention. It comes In deep
red and pink (almost magenta)
shades, too. There are to many
heathers, most of which do very
well in the Willamette valley. Do
you know the V silver-f oliaged
heather. Erica Tetralix? It grows
from 18 inches to two feet tall.
S.N. T. wants to know which
are the better pansies, those of
the Swiss Giants or of the Ore
gon Giants? And which will do
best near Salem?
Ans.: Dealers tell us that the
two strains! are identical, that the
names are trade names for the
same strains.- They do very well
here and should be planted this
month. Have you seen Swiss
Coronation Gold, a clear yellow
without any markings? It is real
ly worth getting if you : do not
have it and are a pansy enthusi
ast. M. B. wants to know if the na
tive azalea, growing along the
southern Oregon coast will do well
in captivity and this far north?
And how should they be moved?
Ans.: Ill answer the last ques
tion first. The shouldn't be
"moved". Not unless you find
them growing on land belonging
to friends who consent to their
being dug up. Besides they grow
much better if bought in a balled
condition from one of our valley
dealers. Most of them carry the
native one or will get it for you.
It is very well worth having and
I prefer the regular native to a
couple of the "improved"! ones I
have seen. The native aatfea Is
. so fragrant and it will bloom in
either shade or sun if drainage
is good, the soil deep and the
mulcgood.

Tourist Business
On Rise; Report
Shows Potential
The Oregon tourist business for
1946 aggregated $346,684,800 as
against approximately $100,000,
000 estimated by the state high
way commission travel bureau and
some other state and semi-public
agencies, according to figures
compiled by the Oregon postwar
development and readjustment
commission here this week.
This was an increase of ap
proximately 77 per cent over the
1945 tourist business, the com
mission's report read. John W.
Kelly, commission secretary, said
the 1946 figures were based on ac
tual traffic counts by the 'state
high commission and estimates of
individual expenditures by tour
ists during the year
A commission compilation pla
ced the daily overage of foreign
automobiles in Oregon May
through November, 1946. at 67,
000. Tourists spent at 52,528,000
man-days with per day expendi
tures fo $6.60.
Aside from the dollars and cents
value of the tourist, the commis
sion said there are immense po
tentials such as educating the
out-of-state residents to Oregon's
Ideal climate. Its mountains, lakes,
rivers and seashores. From an in
dustrial standpoint the report
stressed the possibilities of ac
quainting the tourist with the ag
ricultural resources, lumbering,
food processing and fisheries. Re
creational facilities also were emphasized.

Handicapped, bat still In the race, these members of the C'hln-l'p
Club of Oregon are shown presenting a program at a recent club
party. The group has announced plins for a drive for funds to
obtain a workshop for themselves and other handicapped persons.
Chin-Up Clpb Seeks Building
Funds for Workshop, Housin;
Plans are being completed this week for the Chin-Up cluli of
Oregon building fund drive which will open August 26 over the
state except in Portland and Multnomah county.
The club wants and, needs the new building to house and train
handicapped persons. To insure
the drive's success, the club asks
for cooperation and aid from in
dividuals and from civic, social,
fraternal, religious and business
organizations in letters dispatched
to such groups.
Drive plans call for selling of
tag bricks of cardboard at 25 cents
each. Volunteer help is needed for
this work as well as for -other
fund soliciting. The club would
also like to see volunteer workers
place collection bottles in business
houses and will furnish stickers
for the bottles.
As the funds come in, the Chin
Uppers intend to buy enough land
to expand the project, build a
work shop and living quarters
and finally a permanent place to
live when financing permits. Ob
ject of the project is to provide
the more than 7,000 handicapped
persons in Oregon with a chance
to become self - supporting, ac
cording to the letter. The club is
also aiming for increased educa
tional, medical and recreational
benefits.
Numerous organizations over
the state are already supporting
the club's program. Its official pa
per, the "Oregon Beacon," has a
subscription list of about 1,800
members and non-members. The

Parking Plan
Query Sent to
Salem Firms
A letter, signet! by Carl W.
Hogg, chairman, Douglas McKay
and W. V. Chadwick, members
of a Chamber of Commerce long
range planning commission sub
committee, has been circulated
recently among businessmen in
terested in an area to be covered
by a proposed off-street parking
plan. The letter states that a
study of volume and character of
business in the 16 or 20 down
town business blocks that would
be concerned by the plan is ne
cessary before the committee can
develop a plan.
The' committee in the letter
states that a study of the vol
ume of business number of firms,
assessed valuation of properties,
number of active, progressively
active and inactive businesses, de
preciation of properties, facts on
how much business can be in
creased by the parking and an
assembly of facts of such park
ing in other cities is necessary to
develop the plan.
