Garden Pictures
Are Shown
: Lebanon Pictures of gardens
in Salem were shown by Miss
Elizabeth Lord at the Garden
club meeting Monday night.
Flowering trees were shown in
detail, and trees blooming in
Seattle were also shown.
Perennial borders showing
succession of bloom in Salem
gardens, including Miss Lord's
garden, were stressed. Miss Lord
pointed out the suitable features
of plants in different locations
as they were shown. A well
planned garden of annuals in a
Salem garden made an inter
esting picture.
Apple trees planted by an
early missionary, Father Leslie,
were shown blooming on the
Bush estate, which also boasts
an unusually fine collection of
flowering crabs and cherries.
Flowering peach must be
sprayed in December, said Miss
Lord, and even then they may
not be satisfactory here.
Scenes along Oregon's coast
line, particularly around Cape
Perpetua and Seal Rock, with
the native wild flowers, were
shown, "because," Miss Lord
said, "we won't be seeing some
of these places again for awhile."
She told of her childhood days
on the coast and the Indian
fishing method.
Pictures of fuschias growing
at the coast and trained as vines
were also shown. Miss Lord's
beach cottage home is distin
guished by the lack of formal
planting. The only plants grow
ing there are native, such as
rhododendrons and azaleas, am
ong the native pine and other
native shrubbery and trees. Her
Salem garden in Mission street
is always open to visitors and
consists of many flowering
trees, shrubs and perennial bor
ders in rather formal planting.
Miss Edith Schryver of Salem
brought a flower of a new dou
ble white dogwood that is very
satisfactory, she said. Miss
Schryver, as state horticulture
chairman, told of the new hor
ticulture awards to be given for
outstanding horticultural ach
ievements by amateurs or pro
fessionals. Mrs. Oliver Gundersen des
cribed some of Grant E. Milsch's
work with seedling daffodils
and told of the awards he has
received for gladiolus introduc
tion. Mrs. T. J. Vogcl, club presi
dent, announced that Mrs. E. E.
Rcgester had been appointed to
direct the rose show entries to
the two entry tables. Mrs. Har
ley McKinncy will work with
Mrs. Tex McKinney, Mrs. C. C.
Whitcher and Mrs. Ada Follet
on the placing committee.
Mrs. Lawrence Hollingsworth,
Mrs. Clair Ford and Mrs. Ray
Gleason will have charge of the
plant sale at the show. Chrys

ald MacDonald and Miss Sybil
Scroggie has been revealed here.

FDA Begins
Egg Purchases
San Francisco, May 21 VP)
The food distribution adminis
tration bean egg purchases yes
terday under an amended , war
food order designed to assure
sufficient egg supplies for the
armed formes, essential civilian
needs and wartime requirements
for dried whole eggs.
The order tightening reserva
tion and non-storage provisions
on shell eggs was necessitated
by the movement of unusual
quantities of shell eggs into
storage for speculative purposes,
the FDA said.
Current civilian needs and
requirements for egg-breaking
and drying have been reduced
by this abnormal "into-storage"
movement, it was said.
The order stated that no eggs
may move inot storage after
May 20. Provisions also require
that all shell eggs in cold stor
age on May 20 be reserved for
government agencies and may
be offered to them at no more
than the ceiling prices.
