(U.R) Mrs Harry R Twombly of Salisbury wondered why she was receiving a Christmas gift thank-you note with the holiday still a month away. .. A glance at the post mark showed the note had been mail ed from Franklin a town nine miles away on Jan. 1, 1915. Book Reviewed For Meeting of Butte Falls Club Butte Falls Mrs. E. J. Mai loy reviewed .the book, "Cream Hill" by Lewis Gannett at the last meeting of Butte Falls Gar den club. Lewis Garnett and his wife live in New York when not at Cream Hill, a Connecticut hilltop which they bought 25 years ago and began to make livable . for week end escapes from the city, only to find that his great-great-grandfather had been an earlier settler on the hill. . From his encounters and ob servations deepened by that per sonal link with the past, he has fashioned this wise and engaging country book, which contains lithographs by his artist wife. Any gardener will gain a feeling of companionship as well as more knowledge of gardening as he shares his experiences in this book, according to the reviewer. Mrs. Robert Beeman brought out facts about conservation by the question and answer method. Forest fires and logging are ex tremely destructive to forests, it was said, and only by planned plantings in sufficient quantities can we hope to keep the balance sufficient for future .needs. Everyone's cooperation is need ed to "Keep Oregon ureen. Mrs. Frank Carson, in a short talk suggested the hardy cycla men as an interesting new flow er to try in local gardens. The hardy species are grown success fully in the northwest, aney may be transplanted at any time of year that weather permits Plants should be kept moderate ly moist all durmg the growing season. They do not appreciate dry conditions and even during their. short dormant period in mid-summer enough moisture should be applied to keep the ground loose. Hardy cyclamen are very seldom bothered by dis eases and pests, Mrs. Carson said Mrs. N. B. Stoddard, bird chairman, gave' an interesting account of the whooping cranes She said that in the past the spring and fall migrations brought forth these beautiful white birds in huge flocks that literally covered the skies Measuring almost five feet in length and powered by a wing- snread of seven and one-half feet, they made,-in their annual flights to and from the Artie, one of the greatest natural spec tacles in North America. But today only twenty-four lonely birds carry on the traditional flights. In August 1952, two United States wildlife workers discov ered the summer breeding grounds of the whooping crane in the marshes just -, north of Great Slave Lake in the province of Saskatchewan, Canada. The personal life of the whooping crane, however, remains largely a mystery, and wild life special ists and bird lovers are making a study of . these birds- in an ef fort to enable the birds to sur vive and multiply. The Garden club will hold two work days Dec. 6 and 7 in the city hall to make garlands for use at Camp White and any women in this community that are interested in this project are asked to come and help. The club will hold a sale in the city hill Dec. 10 . to sell wreaths and swags and corsages and candles as last year. Come and get . your Christmas needs supplied. Mrs. Beeman was presented with a going away gift along with all our good wishes for her happiness in their new location where her husband has been transferred by the Forestry Dept.
