tection against such winter ills,
Howell advises gardeners to wrap
some burlap around the young
trees. Sometimes it is enough Just
to put a burlap screen on the
windward side of the tree. But in
other cases it may be well to wrap
the burlap completely around the
plant, provided that the plant is
strong enough to support the bur
lap when topped with a coating of
Ice - - and there aretimes we have
that much ice even' in the Wil

in color, was awarded a sectional

Questions and Answer
Mrs. M. S. There are a few cam
ellias in bloom now, but it is quite
early. February is a much more
normal time, as M. S. indicates.
The other day I wandered around
in Frank Doerfler'i garden (find
ing no one at home) but I did dis
cover three camellias in bloom.
I couldn't find the labels on the
plants, but the one to which Mrs.
M. S. refers is Daikagura. (The
Doerfler blooms were still there
when I left.) '
ACZ writes that friends of hers
at Toledo leave their dahlias in the
ground the year around and the
plants come up in the spring with
line blooms. Wants to know if we
can do that here.
Ans.: It has been done in the
Willamette valley, but it depends
entirely upon what type of win
ter we have. Too. while the dah
lias may come up one year and do
fairly well, this will not continue.
Dahlias are like potatoes, you may
have volunteer potatoes for a year
or so, but before too long, the tu
bers disappear.

flower show she wrote down "Buy
Capitane Baltet for sure this fall"
now she is all in a puzzle because
she cannot remember what this
is: Whether it is a shrub, a per
ennial or "what."
Ans.: There is a lilac by this
name and it is very likely that
her notes refer to this. It is a very
lovely lilac in a soft rose-lilac
color. If there are any other flow
ers by this name that some read
er may know of, I will be glad to
pass the information on, if it is
given to me.
V. R. C. asks for the colors of a
group of roses.
Ans.: Charlotte Armstrong is a
cerise; Rubaiyat a brilliant red;
Show Girl, a deep pink, Mme.
Jules Bouche, white, with a pink-
tinted center; Mandalay, yellow;
Bountiful,' pink; Panorama, pink.
O. C. T. asks for information on
the use of coal-tar compounds in
the control of root weevils. Says
he understands it has been tried
on some plants. Asks if it injures
them or if it will give a disagree
able flavor to radishes.
Ans.: Considerable experiment
ing has been done with coal-tar
compounds and I have seen it
claimed that these compounds
give a 90 per cent cure on root
maggots that work in carrots, on
ions, radishes, strawberries and
primroses. I do not know what ef
fect it might have on rhododen
drons or azaleas. Experimenters
report that it leaves no disagree
able flavor. The compounds are
mixed with water and poured on
the sou around the plants to be
treated. I have been told that the
strawberry and primrose plant fo
liage take on a dark, healthy ap
pearance from the treatments.
E. C. H. asks if there is a deep
red violet. Said she had heard one
was being advertised.
Ans.: I have not seen the bloom
so cannot say how deep a red the
violet it. I too have seen it adver
tised in some garden magazines
as Viola Cucullata rubra.
S. O. T. asks how deeply rhod
odendrons should be planted, and
when.
Ans.: Plant them at anytime of
the year when you can obtain ball
ed ones. They should be planted
about the same depth at which
they were growing in the nursery.
definitely not more than one inch
deeper.

FDR's Aide
Given Fine for
Tax Evasion
BALTIMORE, Oct. 18- -Eu
gene B. Casey, white-haired 42-year-old
millionaire who was one
of President Roosevelt's wartime
executive assistants "with a pasT
sion for anonymity, Friday was
sentenced to pay $30,000 in fines
and serve a jail term for failure
to pay income taxes.
Casey entered a plea of "no
contest' to a 10-month-old indict
ment accusing him of evading $70,
384 in. taxes for 1941-42-43. Fed
eral Judge W. Calvin Chesnut im
posed a $10,000 fine and a six-
month jail sentence on the first
count of the indictment. He order
ed $10,000 fines and six-month
terms on each of the other two
counts but suspended the jail sen
tences provided Casey pays all
taxes, penalties and court costs
and helps the government uncover
any further liabilities.
Casey, a farmer, real estate op
erator and engineer who lives near
Washington at Gaithersburg, Md.,
pleaded innocent and was tried on
the indictment in March but the
jury disagreed.
When he changed his plea today,
internals revenue agents offered
testimony that Casey owed $105,
000 more in taxes for the three
years.
They said they did some re-
checking after he testified in
March that he was worth $2,500.-
000 although "practically broke"
in 1932.

To Margaret
PITTSBURGH. Oct. 18 - (ff
Margaret Truman made her first
full-length concert appearance last
night, receiving enthusiastic ap
plause from an audience of 4.000,
which included her mother, but
only a cold appraisal from critics.
The late arrival of the first lady
and her party delayed the con
cert, scheduled at 8:30 o'clock, for
15 minutes.
The daughter of the president,
attired in a bouffant off-the-shoulder
pink taffeta gown with
an overskirt of blue and white
embroidered net, was cheered
loudly, particularly for her sing
ing of Gretry's "La Faucette," but
critics in the audience were not
so whole-hearted in their ap
approval. Fred Lis felt, Pittsburgh Sun
Telegraph, declared:
"In one word, childish."
Donald Steinfirst, Pittsburgh j
Post-Gazette, said:
"It is a pleasant, sweet voice, i
but it lacks volume and maturity, j
She sings with clarity and a cer- j
tain amount of precision, butj
leaves a great deal to be desired j
in musicality."
She received nine curtain calls, i
responding graciously with three
encores, in addition to her 11 con
cert selections. Admirers sent sev-'
en bouquets of roses to the stage
The 23-year-old blcade so
prano was calm and poised. Her
only nervousnesa was at the be
ginning when she frequently fin
gered a jeweled bracelet.

DR. PAINLESS PARKER SAYS
"Use your credit for plates
and dental service. Place your
dental care on a budget basis
and pay in weekly or monthly
amounts. You can pay for new
dental plates while you wear
them."
kS3
It is not necessary to make an appoint
ment to find out the condition of your
teeth. If an examination indicates need
for dental work, it can be started im
mediately with payments arranged on
terms to suit your convenience.
Lighter, more lifelike plates are now
made with the refined materials all
dentists recommend for faithful repro
ductions. A new naturalness and satis
faction can now be obtained in plates
that closely resemble your own teeth.
The color is unfading and dentures will
not shrink or warp.
Have extractions and plates the same
day. Make your visit early in the morn
ing to have impressions taken if you
want immediate restorations.
