Some experts suggest planting as soon as the ground can be worked, while others advise waiting until it is thoroughly warm. And both suggestions for planting may be correct, de pending on the varieties of flowers under discussion. Hardy annuals really live up to their name. They resist cold and frost in the seed and plant stages, and for the most part they actually germinate better when temperatures are warm by day and chilly by night. In fact, many of these varieties germinate poorly if their planting is delayed until really warm weather. For best resulls-and best possible flowers-here is the schedule I have followed: Plant the following flowers as soon as your garden can be worked into a seed bed: African daisy, alyssum, bache lor button, blue bells of Cali fornia, calendula, candytuft, Bertha Smith, Mrs. W. L. Walden, Mrs. Dorothy John ston and Mrs. Rae Jack. The convention will be in Grants Pass next year. The Medford delegation visited at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Rae Jack, Roseburg, former residents of Medford.

Simple Test In my own garden I have usud simple tests to determine when to start work, and per haps you could do the same. For instance, if you turn over a spade-full of soil and it does not break up readily with a stroke of the spade, your gar den is not yet ready to work. Another test is simply pick up a handful of soil and make a ball of it. If it turns out to be a mud ball, you'd better wait awhile. But if under pressure it breaks up into small particles, it's time to go to work. Unlike the flowers listed above, there are many that should not be sown until cold weather has passed for good and the soil is actually warm. And don't be led astray by a few days of unreasonably warm weather-heat-living va rieties might germinate, but without both warm days and nights the plants would seem lo grow poorly and become stunted, never to grow again properly. The same varieties, started a few weeks later at the proper time, will soon out grow them. To Plant Later Here is a partial list of varieties that should be plant ed only when both days and ; nights are warm: Amaran thus, celosia or cockscomb, globe amaranth, gourds, mari-1 gold, morning glory, nasturti-j um, portulaca, snow-on-the-mountain, sunflower, vinca and zinnia. Most of these varieties will not even germinate if planted too early during cold wet weather, but will only rot away in the ground. Portula ca, however, is stubborn enough to remain dormant and germinate when the weather warms up. Even this variety should not be planted ton early, though because heavy rains could wash away the fine seeds. Some alert seedsmen put map on the back of each pack et that shows just when to plant the variety in the vari ous sections of the country. It's an Important aid to all gardeners who realize that planling the right variety at the right time can be a major factor in changing the dismal failure of past seasons to this year's glorious success. Soon after the seeds are planted, the seedlings begin to appear-and so do the weak lings! Next week I'll tell you what to do about them. Ralph Holcomb fo Conduct Revival Central Point - Ralph Hol comb, professor of New Testa ment at San Jose. Calif., Bible college, will begin a one week revival at Church of Christ. Third and Oak at., today at 10:4.1 a.m. The revival will continue through Sunday, April 17. Mr. Holcomb plans to feature Indies In the Books of Ro mans and F.phesians. Today he will speak on "When a Soul Meets God." At the 7:30 p m. service his topic will be "Romans in A Nutshell." Music by the church choir and orchestra will he featured during tht week as well as selections by choirs of other Churchea of Christ In the valley. Other topirs during the week will include "Let's Get Our Eyes Open," "Three Big Little Words," "Power, Prac tice and Plenty." and "Tht Christ of the Cross." Easter Sunday services at 8 30 and Hospitals art always in need of money, but not enough to charge visitors who come to see the patients. Not long ago a couple arrived at the entrance of Sacred Heart hospital and sort of got mixed in with a large group of customers waiting to have chest x-rays. One of tht volun teers of Providence ffuilri ffftiilH memhers heln the health association staff in operating the chest x ray unit) handed j the man and his wife each a lorm. They wrote in their name, 1 address, age and the name of their physician. They waited, along with everyone else in the hall, until one of the guild members ushered them into the little office where Mrs. Anthony Boitano said "That will be $3.50, 1 please." The man hesitated, and looked at his wife and then j said "Does this entitle us to come again?" j Mrs. B., somewhat puzzled, said "Well, I don't think so. , But you wouldn't want another chest x-ray for about a year." j Whereupon both the man and woman txclaimed "Chest x-ray! Why wt came to visit a patient!" I I Mrs. Ivan Burton, who does radio and television programs for the health association, says there's hardly a dull moment j for the men and women who keep the chest x-ray operation ! going. For instance, one of the customers kept looking in tently at Frankie one night when she was helping out, and finally said "Say, don't I see you on TV?" Frankie admitted that he probably did whereupon he added, in a disappointed voice, "You look better on the screen." Mrs. Ted Jones and Potpourri don't have too much In common when it comes to religious beliefs, but we discov ered Thursday night that both of us drive small foreign cars. Mrs. Jones, who is as eloquent and fervent as Billy Graham about Christianity, calls her little car "Peanut" and told her listeners at the Country club that Peanut lost a hub cap somewhere between Tacoma and Medford. "I wondered about that queer noise up the highway a bit," she said. "When I got to Medford and looked at the wheels, I knew." Mrs. Jones, whose husband builds speed boats in Tacoma, is an exceedingly pretty and young looking grandmother and wore a modish grey wool suit for the dinner Thursday. Mrs. Jones spoke for a meeting of Christian Business and Profes sional Women, now in the process of being reorganized, and again Friday noon for a group which is being organized as tht Christian Women's club. Believe is or not, someone really does sell ice to the Eskimoes. John Day has pictures to prove it. On the reel of film which Mr. Day showed to Siskiyou Knife and Fork club last Monday evening is a shot of the big blocks of blue ice which are melted down for drinking water. Ice in the vicinity of Kotzebue, where Mr. Day went polar bear hunt ing using a light plane, is not pure enough to be used for human consumption, he said. Mr. Day's film and his accompanying talk proved de cidedly interesting, and the speaker was plied with many j questions afterwards, lhis reporter enjoyed seeing the film and hearing of the hunt; Mr. Day's pictures of Alaskan big game are very exciting. But we devoutly hope we never are forced to fly over those frozen wastelands in a little plane. The strong men can have that pleasure. Samples of a new perfume called "GOP-Timism" were passed out to the 3,000 delegates of the Republican Women's conference held recently in Washington, D C-.
