feESDAY, DECEMBER 7. 1954 HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE THREE Wsmm .a Mint WINTER CARE OF TREES-SHRUBS By Mrs. W. Iakeshore P. Myers Garurns Magazine Drive Held Bob Hope To Present New Television Show Tonight Cut sparingly on your flowering nd ornamental shade trees but fruit trees should hp mimn won. larly. Frequent pruninc will keep ihem within bounds snd improve Hie quality ot fruit. Care must be observed to not cut off the fruit spurs or there will be no fruit the next season. The fall and winter months are considered the best time to plant iecidious trees, because they are dormant and can bs handled with toots bare without any danger of serious damage. They become es tiblished in the ground during the winter months and start growln;; In tho spring without the usual et back, caused by spring plant ing. When planting a tree, just any old hole is not good enough. Dig uie hole wider and deeper than the root spread, fill the bottom of the hole with a layer of good top soil, then spread out the roots, set the tree the same deplh as it grew in the nursery, cover with top soil and water thoroughly to settle the sou around the small rootlets. Be sure it has good drainage proper amount of sunshine and sufficient water for its needs. II Mhe tree is large, better stake it both ways to keep it from swaying in the wind. A good tree, whether it is ornamental, shade or fruit variety should be treasured wfith care. ; Roses bloom goreeouslv here. but sometimes the stems are fro sen back to the ground. To avoid this mulch or earth, heaped up around the bush. If the winter Is .severe enough to kill the bush back, there will still be six or eight inches of live bush which 1: sufficient to produce an abundance of blooms in the summer. - Climbing roses are treated some what differently. They bloom on the old wood, so the long vinos must be preserved. They must not be cut back like a b:;sh rose or there will be no blossoms. To fully protect them, they should' be laid down on the ground and covered with a light mulch of leaves. In the spring tie back to the trellis. Rhododendrons are one of the thoice broadleaf evergreens which need special care in winter. These love a cool shady spot and re- shaded from the southwest sun In winter. It Is not the severe cold which harms rhododendrons but the con stant freezing and thawing when exposed to the bright sun in wi.v ter, particularly when there is snow on the ground. The reflected heat brings the sap u, and freez ing later takes place before me sap goes down causing the tender shoots and leaves to bum and dry up, damaging buds. In their wild state In the high reaches of the Cascades, rho dodendrons stay frozen all whiter but they are protected by the Shane of heavy timber. If they can be similarly protected here, blooms will be abundant. A boxlike frame of lath, nailed one inch apart oand large enough to cover the entire plant is recom mended. Place it over the plant before the heavy snow come. In the spring after all danger of fieezing is past, remove the frame and you can be assuied of gor geous blooms in May and June. Rhododendrons are one of the most glamorous of the flower shrubs and can be easily grown here with this tieatment. The cov er frame can be stored and used year after year. Some of the other showy and seldom seen flowering shrubs which are hardy here, are the mag nolias, Soulangeana, Nigra and Stellata. They are decldlous shrubs and flower in early spring before their leaves appear. They need no winter Drotection. Neither does the Azalea Mollis, another hardy and exquisite flowering shrub which blooms before its leaves appear. With so many lovely varieties why plant thes common everyday va riety. Happy gardening next spring. ( What to do with old magazines has been answered by the Maga zines for Friendship, Inc., which urges everyone to enlist in a na tionwide campaign to win lasting peace by counteracting Communist propaganda through spreading the truth about America with used magazines. The plan was conceived by Pro fessor Albert Croissant of the Eng lish faculty of Occidental College, Los Angeles, in 1947, Realizing that almost every American home Is laden with what he calls "dynamic messengers of understanding and goodwill," the professor determined to send these "messengers" to ev ery corner of the globe. The U. S. Information Agency, which is responsible for telling the American story overseas, assists morally and financially in the pro gram, upon arrival at the USIS, magazines are drstributed to U.S. information Centers, USIS Book' mobiles and to extension libraries f U. S. Information Centers. Demands for the magazines are made from schools, hospitals, at lists, advertisers, trade and union leaders, youth organizations, pro vincial government officials and DP and "escapee" camps. Additional information on the program can be secured from Ma rie Obenchain, Klamath Falls mu sic teacher, or by writing Maga zines for Friendship, Inc., in care occidental College, Los Angeles, California.

After talking to people there, I realized again how hep the general public Is about TV entertainment. They watch everything." Hope, who has cue shows to do Educator Blasts U. S. Colleges AUSTIN, Tex.

Most of the good variety acts and guest stars have been seen over and over on TV, so a new at tack was needed. When he ac cepted a bid for the command per formance in London, he decided to work In his TV show over there. At first union problems seemed rugsed. The musicians' union has frowned on the use of foreign-made music on American TV shows. Hope called union boss James Pet- rillo. "Bring back anything you want. Bob," said PetrUlo. "but come home soon." "Naturally I wanted Chevalier," said Hope. "He la the greatest. I aaw bim do a two-hour show In Paris with nothing but a piano on the stage with him. Even in French, the show was terrific. He'a M now. but when that smile lights up bla face, he looks like 34. "I had to have Bea Llllie too. She was touring in her own show, so I had to follow her to rehearse. I went from London to Edinburgh to Bournemouth to Edinburgh and back to London," Hope feela that such a different kind of show will draw the top au dience rating. He said that the rating on his last show, Oct. 12, waa only ,4 below the leader,' X Love Lucy "which Is not bad for a lad who Is on every month or so." if ' Here are once in a life time values to brighten your home.
