Flowers For Every Purpose
Available For Your Garden
By EDNA KING MANDEVILLE 1
Flowers are as different as
people.. There are tall ones and
short ones; thin ones and chubby
ones; those for the limelight and
those for the background to help
the prima donnas shine. There
are so many flowers and such
different ones that most any
need in your garden or home can
be filled quite easily.
Do you have a rather unsight
ly spot to screen, perhaps a
trash area or a laundry pole?
Plant a row of castor beans.
These fast growing plants will
reach a height of 8 or 10 feet in

no time. Although the flowers
are insignificant, the mammoth
le ves are most colorful and at
tractive. A half dozen plants
strategically placed will do the
trick.
Then there are sunflowers.
The Russian strain with the dark
center grows the tallest. An at
tractive sunflower of medium
height is Sungold, a fully double,
bright, yellow flower that adds
color to the area while it screens.
If you prefer pink and red and
white flowers, plant the Sensa
tion strain of cosmos. They grow
five feet tall. Their foliage is
lovely. The pretty flowers are
numerous. The branches and the
flowers are so light and airy that
a bed of cosmos swaying in the
breeze is a sight to behold. A
si jcial strain of cosmos is called
radiance, a bicolor flower of red
and pink with yellow in the
center. Incidentally cosmos is
very easy to grow.
Then there is hollyhock, an old
timer that is still popular. As it
is a perennial variety it will
come up every year once it is
started. And such colors! Red,
pink, salmon, lilac, yellow, ma
roon and so on and on. One of the
most colorful of flowers! The
fully double strain looks almost
like a rose. Try it!
Although marigolds are not as
tall as the varieties I have men
tioned, if three feet will do your
screening, they are your answer.
I refer to African types (Tagetes
Erecta). The tallest of them is
Sunset Giants. Their strong
growing plants bear huge ruf
fled, tightly-petaled flowers in
orange, gold, canary, lemon and
primrose. The flowers them
selves are large enough for
screening.
If height is not quite so im
portant, try Crackerjack mari
gold, the newest of African
marigolds. Although the plants
are a trifle shorter than Sunset
Giants, the flowers are, if any
thing, larger. Right down the
row you can measure bloom af
ter bloom that exceeds 5 inches
in diameter. Like all marigolds,
Crackerjack is easy to grow and
blooms over a long period.
Another type of "screening"
flowers is that which climbs.
Would you like to screen a
porch, cover a tree stump, or
take away the bareness of the
side of your garage? There are
several possibilities to consider.
First there arc morning
glories. The combination of
large leaves and large flowers
make them ideal for screening.
The most popular of all is Heav
enly Blue. The brilliant, clear
blue flowers, hundreds of them,
will cover the vines every morn
ing. If you prefer a softer blue,
try Summer Skies. It is the same
flower in lighter blue.
If you prefer to have your
flowers in the evening, plant
moon flower. The flowers are a
little larger than the morning
glories. They are a pure white,
which is by far tha best for eve
ning blooming.
Cardinal climber is a most at
tractive vine because of its lacey
foliage. The small real red
flowers appead like stars sprin
kled over the light green foliage.
The screening effect is more
subtle than it is with morning
glories. Still, it is effective for
a small area.
Gourds are another climber
that is worthy of your attention.
This variety is usually grown
for the unusual shapes of the
fruit that the vines produce.
These can be preserved for win
ter displays in bowls. They are
quite colorful.

Savory Stow Note
Wine adds an extra-delicious
note to savory stews and braised
meats. Simply replace 1 to IVi
cups of the water called for
with wine. A Burgundy or other
red table wine is right for beef;
a white table wine such as Sau
terne or Rhine wine is the choice
for lamb.

Swim Suit
Psychology
Explained x.
By GAY PAULEY
Unilod Press Correspondent
New York HP! A woman
should buy a bathina suit with
osychology as well as swimming
in mind, says designer Rose
Marie Keid.
"When I talk about psycholo
gy, everybody thinks I mean a
suit to catch a man," said Miss
Reid.
"Well, that is a by-product.
But I mean a woman should
choose a suit which gives her
confidence on the beach. It
should have evening dress ap
peal." Part;of that confidence appar
ently comes from cover-up. For
Miss Reid is just one of several
manufacturers this season stress
ing more, rather than less, on
The American woman doesn't
want the bold suit anyway, said
the designer in an interview. For !
two reasons. She is inherently a
modest soul. And the man likes
her that way.
"This is why the Bikini never
had a chance here," said Miss
Reid, a suit designer for 20
years. "This country never has
worshipped nudity ... I don't
think it ever will.
"Oh, I know, some men say,
why don't we make suits more
daring. But they hastily add they
don't want their wives wearing
them.
"Our showroom models even
want the modest suits. And they
are girls whose figures are so
flawless they'd look good in a
coat of paint."
Modesty prevails, even though
Miss Reid said figures are stead
ily improving.
Designer Reid, a divorcee and
mother of three children, the
eldest 20, started her career in
her home town of Vancouver,
British Columbia. She first de
signed bathing suits for herself,
then for a few friends until she
built a small following. -
Ten years ago she moved to
Los Angeles and formed the com
pany which bears her name. She
introduced the suit engineered
from the inside to fit and con
trol like a foundation garment.
She helped the whole industry
promote the higher-priced, glam
orized suit, and also helped it
sell women on the idea they
needed a bathing suit wardrobe
One of Miss Reid's first "glam
our" suits was dubbed the "Miss
Fort Knox" a gold lame mail
lot, which retailed for $90. She
since has used such luxury ma
terials as brocade, damask, tapes
try and scrolled embroideries.
' One of this year's highlights is
called "Northern Lights," a
white suit of elasticized benga
line sprinkled with 4,000 hand
sewn, irridescent sequins.

Main and Bartlett St.
Department; Says
People Well Fed
On Wrong Foods 7
Washington (TO The U. 8.
Department of Agriculture ay
that much of the nation is well
fed on the wrong foods.
A survey of the Western and
North Central states shows that
high-calorie foods are the most
popular. But these foods tend to
make some persons fat, and
keep others from getting enough
protective foods.
Women from 30 to 90 years of
age in Iowa prefer bread, pota
toes, fats and desserts along
with meat as the main foods in
their diet. For women in South
Dakota, sweets and desserts, cer
eal products and table fats aup
ply more than 60 per cent of the
day's calories.
Main differences In diet pat
terns are in amount of food eat
en, rather than in types. Most
diets do not have enough cal
cium, USDA said. In fact, fewer
than one-fifth of the Iowa and
South Dakota women get the
eight-tenths of a gram of "cal
cium necessary for good health.
