(UPI Telephoto) One of Five Species Of Oregon Grape Is Official State Flower o o 1 II 01301 :0E301 301301 IOIXO Corvallis - Although there are five species of so-called Oregon grape in the state, on ly one of them Is the official slate flower. tf a person doesn't know the difference, chances are he hasn't the state flower in his flower garden, according to Dr. Helen M. Gilkcy, retired curator of the Oregon State college herbarium. Oregon grape was selected as the state flower in 189!), some 40 years after Oregon became a state Feb. 14, 1859. All the Oregon grape spe cies have compound leaves made up of leaflets. These also have yellow flowers and blue grape-like berries. But here's the difference: The state flower grows as a rather large shrub, up to 10 feel, compared to others In the state which are only about two feet high. Besides being bushy, It has glossy green leaves which are divided Into 5 to 7 spiny leaf lets. The flower cluster, which Is branched and rebranched on the stale flower, Is larger.

Either is correct, Dr. Gilkey said. The state flower grows in the Douglas fir woods and margins of it and in thickets where, there is plenty of rain fall in Western Oregon and Northwestern Idaho and points from Washington to British Columbia, Long-leaved Oregon grap grows in higher altitudes. H differs from the "slate" ono in having a simple flower clus ter with 9 to 15 leaflets. It isn't as tall and the leaves aren't as shiny. In early history, Oregon grape was made Into a popu lar lea and was the chief in gredient in a famous spring tonic called "Pfunder's Ore gon Blood Purifier." In a more concentrated so lution, the roots were used In medicine as a cathartic, stimu lant to the kidneys, In dyspep sia, dysentery, typhoid fevef and malaria. The berries of Oregon grape were used for both food and drink. A yellow dye was made by steeping the twigs and bark in water. Frolicsome Porpoise Proving Frustrating To Naval Scientists Texai Ruby Red Thin Skinned Sweet and Juicy GRAPEFRUIT S for 49 if) ft Cello Wrapped California CAULIFLOWER G O Each head it wrapped in cellophane to keep it clean and freihl 0 i c head Co 0 " 0 China Lake, Calif.-dJPII Life In a scientific goldfish bowl doesn't seem to bother Notty, a frolicsome 3-year-old por poise, In the least, but it's proving frustrating to a group of Navy scientists. The scientists have been studying Nolly to learn such mammalian secrets as how a porpoise can swim efficiently at great speeds with so little drag (friction) or disturbance, how it transmits and receives sounds over a distance of sev eral miles and how It with stands deep ocean pressures beyond the known physiolog ical capabilities of other mem ma Is. The answers, say the sci entists at the U.S. Naval Ord nance Test Station here, could change the concept of under water ordnance, sound detec tion and antisubmarine war fare. Notty, however, has been doing a bit of good old Navy goldhricklng loafing, the sci cnlists think. Observations of porpoises at sea Indicate Notty's broth ers and sisters can knife through the water at 20-3IJ; knots 24-35 miles an hour, but clockings of Notty's speed in the water have been slow er. Another porpoise feat be ing studied by scientists is its ability to leap 15 feet out ol! the water by using Its tail vertically for power and it fins as stabilizers. The porpoise also is he Ileved to be capable of de livering 10 times as much horsepower per pound of mus cle than other mammals such as humans and dogs, but the Navy has yet to verify this. Notty, named after the first three Initials of the navy base, was captured for the Navy by Marine-land of the Pacific, a commercial aquarium near Los Angeles. Notty Is six feet long, weighs 1B01 pounds and has been trained to wear plastia rings and swim through hoops and around obstacles--all for the scientists' benefit.
