Culture of Iris
Topic for Session
Of Garden Club
Rogue River Mrs. F. W.
Shontz gave an informative talk
on iris at the last meeting of
Rogue River Garden club, held
at the home of .Mrs. Henry L.
Bonney. She stated that Aug
ust is the month to divide iris,
advising that the leaves should
be cut off in fan shape after
separating the rhizomes with a
sharp knife.
Bone meal and superphosphate
should be placed in the ground
before planting the rhizomes,
which should not be completely
covered. In early spring; Mrs.
Shont2 said the plantings should
be treated with a solution of one
cup of ammonia to three gallons
of water. This kills plant dis
eases. It was also said that peonies
should be cut back at this time
and that the gardener should
use c'aution in covering with
wood ashes, since these tend to
crust over. Coleus may be cut
now to start new plants, and
they will root in water. The
speaker also said that to start
roses, cut off growth with some
old wood, yid place it in a white
potato for sprouting. Azaleas,
camellias and rhododendrons
should be fertilized at this time
of the year.
The club set April as the
month for the 11th annual flow
er show of the club. '
Mrs. E. W. Shock presented
tjje club with a green ribbon
won at the Josephine county
fair for an exhibit entered by
Mrs. Shock and Mrs. Harry Con
dray for thg club.
Mrs? Shock displayed dahlias,
Mrs. Harold Dunham and Mrs.
Paul Hughes brought several va
rieties of oses. Mrs. H. Hanley

and Sirs. K. BurkhaTdt a dry ar
rangement of weeds with bells
of Ireland which had been treat
ed in a solution of glycerin. Mrs.
John Bseeding displayed a Ma
liji poppy and an arrangement
of money plant. Mrs. Dunham
also displayed a various colored
gladiolus.
Mrs. Dunham presided, and
reported on the annual conven
tion of the Oregon Federation
of Garden clubs held earlier
this summer in Coos Bay.
Guests present were Mrs. R.
P.- Ellingson, Klamath Falls;
Mrs. Herbert Rasmussen, Bend;
Mrs. A. W. Patterson and Miss
Carolyn Condray, both of East

Society
Cotton Leotards
Youthful Fashion
The ballerina look . will be
popular in sportswear this fall
for school-age young .ladies, re
ports the National Cotton coun
cil. Cotton leotards, traditional
practice custurr.e of ballerinas,
hae invaded the sportswear
picture and proved many crea
tive costume combinations for
leisure hours.
' Leotards in black or red will
be worn beneath shorts or
skirts. Alone they will make a
figure-fitting variation on the
at-home trouser theme.
Some back-to-schoolers will
choose cotton corduroy Ber
muda shorts to slip on over
their slim leotards. Others will
prefer short or knee-length
pleated skirts of cotton knit.
Other skirt styles that adapt
naturally to the leotards look
are full, circular skirts of bright
ly colored velveteen and wrap
arounds of woven plaids.
Cotton leotards are available
in either two-piece sets, consist
ing of tights and T-shirts, or one
piece, over-all styles. For the
one-piece style a smart combina
tion is Bermuda shorts topped
with a cotton shirt opened at
the neck.
When just the tights are worn
beneath the skirts or shorts,
they are ensembled with bulky
cotton knit sweaters, draw
string blouses or sissy shirts.
Solid colors, stripes and many
patterns are available in these
cover-ups.

Mead's testimony under cross
examination by Ritzi were:
1. Ralph Cercyrwhom Meade

tion executive he met in Dallas
and who was paid $2,300 tor ar
ranging for . "a tremendous
amount of 'confirmation" of
scandal stories printed in Con
fidential. Cercy's name was
mentioned after Judge Herbert
V. Walker overruled a loud ob
jection from defense counsel

people already have lost their
jobs as a result of this type
of testimony." Cercy's station

many stories was about singer

court martial charges made
against him 31 years ago.
The Air Force board for cor
rection of military records by

Pentagon sources told the

Air Force Secretary James
H. Douglas is considering the
proposal, but the final decision
may be left to President Eisen

and Navy air arms be abolished
and a separate air force created.

Infant Daughter Struck,
Killed by Automobile
Wilbur, Ore. P Pamela
Harper, infant daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. J. L. Harper of Mc
Cloud, Calif., was killed here
Sunday when struck by a car
driven by Lloyd Harvey.
Authorities said Harvey had
stopped at the Wilton Corley
home north of Roseburg and the
14-month-old Pamela apparently
got in the way of the car as he
pulled away from the house.
In another development, a
London newspaper quoted mod
el Pat Steele. 25, as saying she
was prepared to testify that a.
story siie sold to Confidential
about movie producer John
Huston was " a pack of lies."
The newspaper, "The People,"
quoted Miss Steele as saying
she "elaborated" on a story
about Huston and his secretary
because she was in need of
money.
In New York, Michael Mor-daunt-Smith,
European corre
spondent for Confidential, said
he had "documentary proof"
that the Huton story is true. He
said he had affidavits but de
clined to say who had signed
them. He said he had been en
gaged to Miss Steele for a year
when he broke the engagement
several ' months . ago and an
nounced his engagement to an
other girl.
