By MISS HELEN WEBSTER
Medford Librarian
With spring not only official
ly, but actually, here, the Med
ford Public Library is well pre
pared for the gardening season.
Whether you're an apartment
dweller determined to have the
best window box in the neigh
borhood, or the owner of a back
yard plot or country place, the
library has just the right books.
Manuals
There are gardening manuals
with easy-to-follow directions
for getting the best results from
the space available. Among mat
ters covered by experts is con
ditioning the soil, proper selec
tion of garden tools, and the
planting, care and maintenance
of flowers, vegetables, lawns,
trees, and shrubs. You can learn
from books how to get rid of
weeds, how to control blight,
how to make a cold-frame.
Books are available on land
scaping, fruit culture, plant
breeding, and the building of
garden furniture, fences, out
door fireplaces, walks and pa
tios. "Is yours a year-round gar

See Wards Big Ad in Tomorrow's Paper
thor of "The Pacific Coast Gar
dening Guide." In his new and
different gardening book he
shows you how the Pacific Coast
idea of year-round blooming can
be applied to your garden.
Norman Taylor's "Wild Flow
er Gardening" describes the cul
tivation and garden use of Amer
ican wildflowers from the rare
Arbutus to the more common
trillium, and even goldenrod,
which can be made a garden
highlight.
For Northwest
Among the garden books
which have recently been added
to the library are "Trees and
Shrubs for Pacific Northwest
Gardens," by John and Carol
Grant, "Handbook of Northwest
Flowering Plants," by Helen Gil
key, and "V'estern Fruit Gar
dening,", by Reid Brooks and
Claron Hesse. Sunset Maga
zine's "Outdoor Building Book,"
Rebecca Northen's "Orchids as
House Plants," and Ishimoto's
"Art of Plant and Driftwood
Arrangement" are other new ac
quisitions. Some of the most popular ti
tles on the gardening shelf are
"Garden Design," by John and
Carol Grant, "The How and
Why of Better Gardening," by
Manning, and Goldson's "Con
temporary Flower Arrange
ment." Gardneners who have
their favorites like Allen's "Ros
es for Every Garden," Fair
child's "Complete Book of the
Gladiolus," and Walkers "Dahl
ias for Every Garden." Ingham's
"Grounds for Living" and Bot
tomley's "New Designs for Small
Properties," offer many suggest
ions to the landscaper.
Many Magazines
The library also receives a
number of magazines on garden
ing, including "Better Homes
and Gardens," "Flower Grow
er," "Sunset," and "House and
Garden."
All of these books and others
on the subject are available at

When you reduce . . .
OUT OF
"I'd rather die than reduce," confided the fat
lady to her friend, as she sank her teeth into a :
second generous chunk of chocolate cakt.
An exaggerated statement? Sure... but no
one likes the draggy,' knocked-out feeling that
results from harsh dieting. Yet many people
seem to reduce comfortably, seem never to lose
strength and vitality while they lose pounds.
These wise "taker off-ers" get plenty
of protein, vitamins and calcium all essential
food elements while reducing their fuel-fat
intake. In short, they drink plenty of milk.
