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.

Letter From The Flag
Remember me’ I'm your flag. Some folks call me Old
Glory, others call me the Stars and Stripes, or just-the
flag. But whatever they call me. I AM YOUR FLAG.
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
