Here are a few hints if that
ivy in your living room is liter
ally withering on the vine. Don't
water it too frequently. Wait
until the soil is almost dry and
then give the plant a thorough
soaking about every week or
ten days. Try washing the leaves
gently to free them from dust
and grime. And, if possible, keep
ivy away from the direct rays
of the sun and in a cool humid
place.

Butte Falls Club
Hears Program
On Greenhouses
Butte Falls Mrs. Leo Thomas
and Mrs. A. O. Floyd, Medford,
were guests for the last meet
ing of Butte Falls Garden club,
and Mrs. Thomas was guest
speaker.- Mrs. Floyd is direc
tor of ..the Siskiyou district of
garden clubs.
The meeting was held at the
home of Mrs. N. B. Stoddard.
Mrs. Thomas spoke on the
construction, heating and main
tenance of greenhouses. She
said that a greenhouse should
be built in an east-west direction
to secure the best light,, heat
and ventilation. Redwood should
be used in the construction if
possible, she said," but if fir is
used it withstands moisture bet
ter if painted with aluminum
paint.
Mrs. Thomas advised using a
caulking compound instead of
putty around panes of glass,
saying this eliminates breakage
from expansion and construction-
of rafters caused by heat
and moisture. ; ' ' ' , . "
She suggested several types of
burners for heat and added she
had used a sawdust burner with
great satisfaction.
Mrs. Thomas grows geraniums
as a hobby and has several hun
dred varieties including the fan
cy leaved, scented, Martha Wash
ington, plain and apple-scented
types.
Mrs. Stoddard, bird chairman
of the Club, told of the migra
tory habits of the whooping
crane and the great effort which
is being made to prevent their
extinction. She then reviewed
an article "Flamingos At Home"
by John O'Reilly, stating that
a great deal of concern is be
ing aroused by ornithologists
and conservationists over the
status of the American flamin
go, most spectacular of the six
species of flamingos that inha
bit the world, because their de
cline in numbers' has been
steady.
Other guests were Mrs. L. C.
Richman and Mrs. Page Stauf
fer. A nominating committee of
Mrs. Clay Conlay, Mrs. Ernest
Smith and Mrs. W. B. Edmond
son was appointed. Refresh
ments were served by the Hos
