Plant Daffodils Now For Next Spring It may be a bit early for thoughts of spring, but home gardeners with visions of cokirful clumps of daffodils and tulips in the yard need to get those flower bulbs planted now. Duane Hatch. Oregon State University home gar dening coordinator, has some planting tips: — Plant bulbs in well- drained. sandy soil which has maximum exposure to sun light. —To prepare the ground, pulverize the soil 12 inches deep. Plant Tulips at a depth of six inches; crocuses, 2 inches; daffodils, 7 inches; irises J; grape hyacinths, 3; . and hyacinths. 4. —Set the bulbs firmly in the ground and press out any air pockets that develop. Work in a commercial fertilizer, a handful of 5-10-5 for a cluster of 3 to 5 bull s, or 2 pounds for a 5xlO-foot area. Bone meal is a good fertilizer, too. Place a ccuple of tablespoons near the bulb. Soak the bed to dissolve the fertilizer and settle the bulbs. BUY-SHfrRBfFHIRE- Maximum color effect is gained by planting many bulbs in one area rather than scattering them, says Hatch. He recommends planting them in dusters of the same color, with individual bulbs 4 to 5 inches apart. Middle row. from left: Donna White, Susan Stam, Clara Fujikawa. Cathy Okano.

And as 1 proudly state, the FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. Something has been bothering me lately. I was wondering if I might talk it over with you. It's about YOU and ME. I remember some time ago, I think it was the 4th of July, when people lined the streets. When your father saw me coming along waving in the breeze, he took off his hat and held it against his heart. Even though you were young, you knew 1 was important. 1 was so proud that day. If 1 sound conceited, well. I have a right to be. I represent the finest country in the world—the United States of America. More than one aggressive nation has tried to haul me down, only to feel the fury of this freedom-loving country. Many of your loved ones had to fight to defend me. A lot of blood has been shed, but I'm still the same ole’ flag. The last time I proudly waved down the street, 1 noticed a difference. A lot of things had changed. I saw youngsters running and shouting as I passed by. People were selling hot dogs and beer while our national anthem was being played. They don't seem to care who I am. One man took off his hat when I came by. He kxiked around, didn't see anyone else with theirs off. so he quickly put it back on again. When I think of all the places 1 have been—Gettysburg. Normandy, Guadalcanal. Iwo Jima. Korea and Viet Nam, 1 wonder what's happened? I'm still the same old flag. 1 proudly marched across the Plains with the pioneers. 1 fly high above your Capitol. How can I be expected to fly high and proud if there is no thought, love or respect for me? Whatever happened to patriotism? Has everyone forgotten what 1 stand for? Have you forgotten all the battlefields where men fought and died to keep this nation free? WHEN YOU SALUTE ME, YOU SALUTE THEM. YOU SALUTE THE SPIRIT OF THIS AMERICAN NATION! Well, it won't be long before I come down your street again. When you see me. stand straight and proud! Place your hand over your heart. Do this because I represent you! You will see me wave back, which is my salute to you a LENNuX heat pump cools and heats your home electrically A heat pump utilizes nature to give you maximum effi ciency.
