Ontario.
One of the cars contains living
quarters for Teacher Fred Sloman,
his wife and five children and a
schoolroom with books, rtosks, maps
and lending library. CNR's highball
ing classroom Is uncoupled for a
week at a time near tiny settle
ments. Here, Sloman keeps school
dally for pupils from six to 18, gives

New Mum Bulletin
The Pacific Northwest is a par
ticularly favorable area for grow
ing chrysanthemums out-of-doors
according to a news bulletin re
leased by the Oregon State Col-
ege agricultural experiment sta
tion.
The authors of the publication,
Dr. E. J. Draus and Ralph Garren
of the horticulture department,
say there are only a few locations
at the highest elevations where
the flowers can't be grown with
proper care. Types are now avail
able which flower early enough
to escape the frosts of late Aug
ust or early September and which
grow despite dry conditions.
The bulletin includes informa
tion concerning the classes of
chrysanthemums; flower struc
ture; propagation; establishing
the garden; planting; care of the
soil and flowers; transplanting;
and insects, pests and diseases.
Copies of the bulletin, "Chry
santhemums For the Home and
Garden", are available from the
county extension offices and Ore
gon State College.
