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.

Succulent Sea I lops Add
Variety to Lenten Menus
The Lenten season presents
no menu problems to the
housewife who is familiar
with the versatile scallop. In
recent years the popularity of
this succulent Atlantic ocean
shellfish has grown by leaps
and bounds with menu plan
ners, and for several good
reasons.
First of all, scallops seem
to be an all-family seafood,
Strong preferences and pre
judices that sometime apply
to other seafoods (even with
in the family circle) dont
seem to apply to scallops.
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.
Undoubtedly the biggest
reason for the scallop's boom
ing popularity is the endless
variety of delightful ways they
can be served. They can be
broiled, baked or fried. They
room broth, vegetable juice
are delicious in casseroles,
stews and chowders. Here's a
recipe with a Spanish flavor
that brings out the best in
scallops:

Here's what Mrs. Raleigh M. Carter of Yreka says about electric living . . .
We have a comfortable all-electric home
and wouldn't trade it for anything"
"Our old house is now our dream house since we re
modeled for all-electric living. We installed new color
matched kitchen appliances and many other electrical
features including extra circuits for patio lighting and
the addit ional electric helpers we plan to get. Since my
husband and I both work we appreciate even more the
convenience these features afford. We think electric
service is our biggest value."
Thousands of other Pacific Power & Light customers,
like Mrs. Carter and her family, live better because
they make generous and effective use of modern
electric service.
