And another Important point If you apply plantfood very early, be fore top growth baa started. It 1 not necessary to water the plant food In. and thla la a considerable eavlng In time and energy. Remember that a well-fed lawn effectively discourages weed growth, too. for the thick turf make. It very difficult for weed aeeds to germin ate. The best and moat ecnomlcal way to apply plant food Is with a spread er, although the hand broadcast method will do very well.

Nearly every place, no matter how mall, has space for a border and little more than 3 or 4 feet wide, JO feet long or more ta sufficient. The moat satisfactory way of deal ing with such a space Is to plant It to annuals of one or two different colors In varying tonrs.

All these annuals are easily pjown from seed sown In the open ground. They should be arranged so that the pink and blue groups alternate harmoniously, the tall plants at the back of the border and the lower growing onea being graded to the front. Pink dahllaa might be added to the border for the lata fall bloom: plant them In seed boxes early In the aprlng and transplant later. The groupa should be about 3 feet In length In order to produce a good effect, and from 1 to 3 feet In depth according to the total width of the border. The length can vary considerably, but the width should be such as to make weeding and cultivation convenient. Such a planting would not only give a beautiful color effect for the greater part of the summer, but would furnish a generous supply of material for bouquets In the house.

It could be as beautiful a garden as you'd find anywhere, from early spring to late fall. Almost aa soon as snow had left, you'd have crocuses and snowdrops, poking their heads.up to let you know bprlDK had officially arrived I Then early In May you'd uegln having regular parade of blossoms long be fore most annual flowers were any where near ready to bloom. First would come scarlet and yel low, masses of tulips, and fragrant mi es-of-the -valley. Then you'd be gin having peonies creamy white, pink, and the lovely dark crimson ones. And Iris deep blue, violet, yel low, soft grey. Then aa It got Into June you'd be having big, creamy-white Shasta daisies. , And soon your larkspur would be In bloom, splendid blue spires standing high in corner clumps and against your fence. And holly hocks would be coming along, pink and white and scarlet, towering even above the larkspur. By July your borders would be blazing with phlox In almost every color of the rainbow. Here and there you'd have a clump of crimson and gold gatllardla. And of course you'd have gladiolus, blos soming all summer and Into the fall, with varieties of color beyond de scription. And bo Into September, when one of the finest perennlala of all would come Into flower your chrysanthe mums. And with them would be your hardy asters and many-colored dahlias. And of course these are only a few of the hundreds of vari eties you could have ... Now here are some things that should be emphasized about growing perennials. I've found it hardly pays to try to raise them from seed, it's very llttlo more expensive to buy plants or bulbs from a good reliable nursery, and your results arc quicker and surer. In preparing the soil for perennial plants, spade it to a depth of six or eight Inches, and then -pulverize Jt thoroughly. Mix In some complete plant food, using a pint of It to each 35 square feet. Water the plants thoroughly when you're putting them Into the ground, and keep them moist for at least a week. Remember this: Just because per ennials are growing well and seem to need little care, you can't com pletely neglect them. Some varieties don't thrive unless you cut their flowers regulnrly. Others need to be transplanted now and then; Iris at ways does better If you take the bulbs up and separate them every third year or so. Some, Uko gladiolus and dahllns, need to be taken Indoors for the winter. But most Important, all perennials must bo fed I All through the growing season they're drawing eloven dlllrrent food elements from the soil, sooner or later these ele ments hcome exhausted, and unless you replace them the plants will die. So I'd strongly recommend that you give your perennials a square meal this spring. Use a plant food that; supplies all eleven of the food ele ments they need from the soil. In balanced proportions. Four pounds of It per 100 square feet applied to your flower borders will keep them blossoming strongly all summer long. act, as recently amended, eliminates the financing of refrigerators, wnsh ing machines, Jronera. ranges and such home equipment.

The appear ance of the SONS players here la be ing sponsored by the Medford 20-80 club and will be staged Tuesday eve ning at the Senior high school audi torium. Capacity crowds witnessed last week's performance of the spectacu lar drama and audiences praised It as the best of the always-popular Normal dramatic events.

Principal action of the play takes place when Emperor Jones hears the natives have turned against his cruel regime and flees through the Jungle to escape the revenge certain to be enacted by the "bush -niggers" for the harshness with which he has treated them. All scenes except' the first take part in the heart of a tropical Jungle and unusual lighting and scenery effects picturing Jungle vegetation have been worked out by the technical staff.

DINNER $1.00 Former Parole Officer In Al leged Agreement With Local Agitation To Buy Release. SALEM, April 11. AP) The Mar lon county grand Jury, concluding months of intermittent investig. tion, last night returned an in dictment charging Dan Kellaher, for mer state parole officer, with "agree ing to accept a bribe." . Kellaher was charged with enter ing Into a contract with L. A. Banks, former Medford life-termer at the state penitentiary, wherein the latter was to pay the parole officer aso.ooo If he succeeded In obtaining Banks' release from prison. Banks was convicted of the slaying of Officer George Presoott Jn Med ford In 1933. The agreement between Banks and Kellaher was produced last fall when Ed Duffy, newly named parole offi cer for the penitentiary, learned of Its existence from Banks. Later the agreement was publicized at a hearing before Governor Martin on Banks' application for a pardon, at which time Ralph Moody, deputy attorney general, brought the charges. Kellaher was arrested and bound over to the grand Jury under $3,000 bond. The district attorney's office stated It would ask that the caso be brought to trial at once. Kellaher, since he concluded his four years as state parole officer last June, has lived at his former home In Portland. In a second move yesterday the grand Jury exonerated W. L. Goeslln, private secretary to Governor Martin, of chargea that he had violated the law In advancing filing fees for six candidates to state office.
