Editor New York - UPD - Hortl culture can help toward a haooy. well adjusted mind says a new York psychia. trist who has his plant shop for work re habilitation of disturbed ado lescents. Dr, James Fries, 36, a native Lone Rock Wis., some SO Gav Pauley miles west of Madison, Is a combination o f practicing psychiatrist and horticultur ist. The physician sees gar dening as one medium for acting out the inerapy tor me disturbed "A doctor in his office can tell the patient about the patient's emotions . , . about those of others," he said, in an interview. "But there have to be other ways to point these out, other than by tell. Ing." Teach Responsibility "Teaching the matter of re sponsibility, for instance," he continued. "It is difficult in therapy. Yet horticulture is one way of taking care of im portant details. To teach that one DOES have to put drain age in the plant container. To teach that one DOES NOT over -water or under -water. To teach the customer how to care for a plant." He told of two adolescents he is helping by giving them work in his plant shop. They failed on one small detail -and ended up explaining the reason in court. A woman customer refused to pay her bill, Fries said, because she insisted she should have been warned by the two youths who delivered a plant that a pot of green ery should not be placed di rectly on a rug. Moisture had damaged the floor covering. "We had assumed our cus tomers knew such routine things in plant care . . . That a pot will 'sweat', " he said. "But by the time we all had told it to the judge, they'd learned a lot more about mat tcrs of responsibility. The judge ruled in the woman's favor."' ... . , , W 4-H Member Dr. Fries, a slim, medium built man with dark hair and dark eyes, began his horticul tural career officially by win ning a 4-H club prize for a rock garden at the Richland County, Wis., fair. He was 10 at the time. He is one of the exhibitors at the annual 46th Interna tional Flower Show at the New York Coliseum, running through March 17. The show is co-sponsored by the Hortl culture Society of New York and the New York Florists Club and proceeds go to re search and educational proj' ects in horticulture. Dr. Fries' exhibit will in elude 2,000 cacti, which he said are native to the West' ern Hemisphere from the North Pole to the Andes Mountains.' Fries began his medical ca reer when the U. S. Navy gave examinations during World War II to recruit po tentials for professional train ing. ' r - ' The Navy sent him to Dart mouth College and after the war, he completed training for his M. D. at Stanford unl versity. Grows Cactus His re - interest in hortl culture began with finishing a New York City apartment I found by trial and error that what would grow in the Lone Rock wouldn't grow In the dry air of the big city," he said. He started with cactus be cause he found this plant highly adaptable to city dwel lings. , - Two years ago he opened his "The Potting Shed" shop,' which now offers more than 500 varieties of green - no flowers - ranging from a small cactus costing 25 cents to a bamboo palm for $500, Now, mornings are spent with the plants;, afternoons, with the patients.

Nearly everybody likes them. Few people dislike them. And legion are those who grow ecstatic at their very men tion. Perhaps the reason for this Is the scallop's delicate flavor. It is not fishy. Yet it has an unmistakable nutty tang that tells you it comes from the sea.
