Selection of Trees, Shrubs For Easy Upkeep, Is Advised When planting shade trees on the lawn this Spring, choose those which have a long life, whose tranches do not break easily, •whose roots are deep end whose form is attractive and a thing of beauty. Visualize, suggests Dr. Rueh P. Marshall, director of the Bartlett Tree Research Laboratories, how the tree will look when mature, say fifty years from now. Then plant it where it has ample room to grow toward the sun, where its roots have epace to stretch—not too close to a house, not crowding other trees.

Their branches are brittle. They are short-lived. The roots of the poplars clog drains. Norway maple and London plane make fine street trees, but they have been overplanted as lawn tr-ees, s&ys Dr. Marshall. Furthermore, their shallow roots rob the surface soil making it difficult to maintain lawns. The denee shade of the Norway maple also adds to the difficulty. Silver maples are too brittle. Horse chestnuts are beautiful and their flowera attractive, but much work is required to keep the grounds clean. Beeches and lindens need room to develop and their branches often sweep low to the ground. For best results, Dr, Marshall recommends:' Oaks, not enough of which are being used as lawn trees. White oak and scarlet oak are best bets. Maples—sugar or rock maple and the red maple. Elms—American elm and the Chinese elm (ulmus parvifolia). Avoid the brittle unsatisfactory so-called Siberian elm (ulmus f umila).

LINDEN 2-10257 Centaurea Colors Excel Dwarf White Centaurea Cyanus Few flowers have as many names as Centaurea Cyanus. Cornflower, bachelor's button, bluet, ragged sailor, French pink are some of them. It Ls grown e.11 over tlie world and popular everywhere, for its clear, bright colors, and its ability to thrive wherever it gets half a chance. Men wear cornflowers In their lapels more than any other flower, and while most of them lik-e the double 1 cornflower blue, the d&rk maroon variety is popular. There ere also a light blue, a lovely true pink, a glowing red, and a white. Seeds should be sown direct in the garden; they germinate in eight days, and flower in 8 weeks. Many stems grow from the base and terminate in clusters of flowers. A strain of dwarf habit, growing only a foot tall, has just been introduced, including all colors. Unless one has need for many cut flowers, it can b e grown for border effect, and will easily spare all the cut/-- flowers that may be taken. In fact, when the firat crop of blooms begins to fade, the growth should be cut back heavily, and new growth will develop to bear a second, and a third crop of blooms. Centaurea cyanua has many cousins, there being 500 species scattered around the world, with only one native in America, a perennial mountain flower. The cornflower is so hardy that it nearly always self-seeds, and these seedlings have a tendency to revert to single flowers. The doubles are so superior that new seed should be started each year, and the volunteers pulled up. Garden Clubs To Start Road Survey May 1 Encouraged by public cooperation for more attractive roadsides, the 'New Jersey Garden Club will begin next Monday, May 1, the merit award, survey of establishments on state routes. Termed the Highway Beautificaion contest the members of the organization will continue their tour until May 15 to select locaions deemed worthy of special e cognition. The various industrial plants and :he smaller business establishments will be viewed and those gaining the merit rating will obtain the certificates for permanent display es a tok-en of civic integrity. During the last three years the arden Club has designated 156 films and individuals that complied with requirements for commendation. Due to awakened interest to. the distinction that is gained by approvals the expectation is that the approaching studies will bring a great increase in the favorable competition. This result was predicted today by Mrs. Arthur J. Sullivan, of Clifton, president of ;he Club. Selections are based on land- :caping, care, suitability and distinction of the various sites. Fac- ;ors to be stressed are permanent andscaping, safe and adequate jarkjng, service area screening, appropriate signs and compliance with governmental regulations. The Garden Club will be assisted in its judging by the following State Departments: Conservation and Economic Development, Highway, Law and <strong>Public</strong> Safety, Mo- ;or Vehicle, Health, Agriculture, Education and the New Jersey State Chamber of Commerce. rfaybe Sent Through Military Channels Try as he will, Gen.

FEINS 2*40 Morris Ave., Union UNVL. 2-3500 Vour Suburban Garden -By Alexander Forb«s • Perhaps the finest flower display you may have in your garden comes from a well planned perennial border. Perennial plants are those which live and bloom from year to year. Each has its awn special flowering season; some are very long-lived, others last only e, few years and certain varieties have definite likes and dislikes which must be recognized. But like most other garden efforts the success of your perennial borders depends upon the care and attention you give them. To properly locate the plants in an environment they enjoy is of the utmost importance. Many require an exposure to full sunlight, some like a half-ahaded location and others revel in deep shade. Perennials offer you a great variety of, colors and the plant habits range from the two or three-inch ground covers to stately plants like delphin- Remedies for Sticky Varnish; Screen Repair So often when a plain or garden variety home handyman undertakes the refinishing of a piece of furniture he winds up literally stuck with his work. That Is to say, the varnish remains sticky, or tacky, so that, if the article happens to be a chair, clothing will adhere to it whenever anyone sits down. By the time a guest or two has thus sat, and has arisen to the accompaniment of a sound that makes you believe the shirt is being ripped from his back, you will have decided to do something about this condition. Occasionally a wiping with cold water will take out the stickiness. At least the process is easy enough to be well worth a try before you go on to more difficult methods. By the same token, you may be able to eliminate the trouble by wiping with turpentine. If that does not do -the trick, you probably will have, to remove the offending varnish with a commercial varnish remover preparation which you can obtain at your hardware store. A word of caution. When you use varnish remover be very sure to clean every bit of it off with turpentine before applying another coat of varnish or you'll find yourself with a sticky finish again. Varnish remover usually contains a waxy or paraffine ingredient that will check the hardening of new varnish on a surface, leaving the finish tacky. There are, however, some newer types of varnish remover on the market which do not require a turpentine wash-off after use. Ask your hardware dealer about this in order to avoid any costly mistakes. Even a small hole in a window ir door screen means that you have virtually no screen at all, in terms of its effectiveness in keeping out flies and other insects. Probably, with screen-installing line only a few weeks away, you .lready have paid an inspection visit to the place where you have them stored. If so, you have rediscovered those few small holes :hat you had forgotten about since you put the screens away last fall. Although the best long range remedy here is to get new screening to replace the deteriorating sctions, there is a handy patching trick that will fix the small holes temporarily. From another piece of screen cut a patch a little larger than the hole to be mended. Now pull two strands from each of the four sides of the patch and bend the projecting wires at right angles to the patch. Place the patch over the hole, push the bent wire ends through the screen and fold them inwards to secure the patch. In order to make a tight seam all around, tap the wire folds lightly with a hammer, using a wooden block as a support. Remember, however, that once screen wire begins to break down, causing small holes in one or two places, you can expect the same thing to happen in other spots because the screen wire probably is old and th'e metal has become "fatigued." him or hollyhocks with a height of six and often seven feet. Perennials Hold Much Interest The growing of perennial flowers is extremely interesting. By working with them occasionally you will gradually come to know the plants better and to understand their individual needs. When these are' satisfied the result in growth and bloom bring joy and a great sense of achievement. Some plants, by their very names, give you a clue to their needs. Baby's-breath is botanically called gypsophila which comes from the Greek gypsos meaning chalk (gypsum) and philos meaning loving. From this you may assume that gypsophila means chalk or lime loving which is actually the case as this plant thrives in a heavily limed soil and will slowly" die if planted in acid soil. An occasional top dressing of lime will keep it growing luxuriously. There are many books and a few catalogs which show, in concise form, the essential likes of the different varieties. These will be very helpful to you. But the great majority of perennials are quite happy under ave'rage garden conditions. It is Fan to Plan Your Borders One of the quickest waya to learn the habits of perennial plants )s to plan your own border and this can be very interesting. You have four common variables, the color, the season of tajoom, the plant height, and the spacing between plants. If you make your border four feet or more from front to back it will give ample room to have low plants along the margin, plants of half-height in back of these, and taller plants in the rear. It will also give greater opportunity to have color showing from spring, through summer, and into the fall. To get the best effect, plant all except the wide growing perennials in groups of at least three. This gives larger groups of color, looks more natural and gives a more finished result. Of course, nice effects may be obtained in narrower borders if the longer blooming varieties are used. Start with Strong Plants Like all other garden items such as seeds, bulbs, etc., there are many qualities and grades of perennials being offered. As they cost much more than annual flowering plants, involve more work in the original planting, and are expected to live and thrive year after year, it is not only costly but foolish to buy any but the best. Plants which are dug up from the soil for your use are apt to suffer by having the important fine feeding roots destroyed in the digging. For this reason perennial plants which have been established in pots are best. Unfortunately many growers who offer pot grown plants sell only small plants in small pots. This means that you start your border with a handicap for these plants will not bloom profusely until the second year. It is best to use large, well-rooted perennials established in five or six-inch pots which provide a large soil-baU. If the pots are carefully removed when the soil is quite dry there is no likelihood of the soil-ball breaking. When these are set out in your perennial border they will continue their growth without any check and will bloom spl»naidly the first year.

"Serving New Jersey For Over 20 Years" Native Bloom With Ambition Is the Cosmos Sensation Strain of Cosmos Cosrrfos, pronounced coz-muss, is an ambitious American flower, which has shown the will to improve under the guidance of American plant breeders. Thirty years ago the large 3 to 4-ijich flowers which now bLoom in northern gardens from' July until Irost, were so late that plants were often frozen before they bloomed. Only in the deep South could the yellow cosmos be flowered. Now we have the varieties Orange Flare and Yellow Flare which bloom in midsummer, and the Sensation strain with giant blooms of pink, rose, white and crimson, flowering in midsummer from seed sown in the spring, and increasing in abundance until winter kills the plants. Cosmos is a background plant. It develops as a loose bush, growing up to four feet tall, with its lovely single flowers terminating stems and branches. The foliage of the Sensation strain is fern-like. In the rear of the border it forms a misty screen of lovely coloring which daste no shadows, and allows free passage for sunshine and fresh air. Flowers of this strain ere excellent for cutting, lasting in good condition for 10 days. It is H. tropical flower, from Mexico, but it is. no more demanding as to soil and temperature than the good natured marigolds. The seeds germinate in eight days' and the plants grow vigorously in average garden soiL Piece of Mind (Continued fi-om Page 1) pletion of dinner."

APRIL 27. 1950 YWY Make Better Communities "Y" Program Is Varied to Meet the Needs of All Women By Helping the Individual This week the nation's YWCA's are celebrating National YWCA Week.. To "Y" members, the organization is many things. To the teenager, at may be the Friday night canteens, for the dewey-eyed bride it may be the place where she learns how to cook for the first time, to the young mother it may b* the place she can take her energetic offspring one day a week while she enjoys a Kaffee Xlotch upstairs, and lor . the plumpieh matron the "Y" may be her reducing salooa. "TheY's" in tils area, in Elizabeth, Summit and Orange, although their programs might astound the original founders, nevertheless are following the general principles upon which th* "Y" wa« founded some 96 yc&ra ago. The YWCA, although it wasn't sailed that until several years later, originated in England in 1855. It was an outgrowth of the mechanical age, and the consequent social upheavel it caused. Women, for the flrat time, were leaving their homes to work in the factories and mills. To help working women lead a fuller life In their transition from home to factory two English. Sadies, Mt» Emma Rofcetts and the Hon. Mrs. Kinnaira formed the General Training Institute In London. A few year* later » group of New York women opened a, boarding house for working- girls and combined it with a prayer circle. A year later, in, 185B, a group of Boston women under the leadership of a Mrs. Boyd formed the first TWCA under that name agsiost the advic* of the Boston clergy who Voiced thft opinion that "women couldn't take on «uch responsibility." History has proved the Boston clergymen in error. Today the YWCA has over, 3,000,000 members in the United States alone; has associations in 434 towns and cities, 599 YWCA's on college campuses, 378 clubs in villages and rural centers and works in 69 foreign countries. Through the years, the "Y" has spread its interest to include not just the working girl, but to in- Store Furs NOW I Our Own Cold Storage Vaults on the Premises PHONE clude all women. The "Y 1 ' Is now interested not in just the transition of women from the home to factory, but also, among other things, to help newcomers fee] at home in a new community, to give teen-age girls opportunity for wholesome recreation, to help the bride with her cooking problems, or to teach a secretary how to play tennis. The "Y" philosophy was broadly summed up by Mifia Dothory Sa- biston, executive director of the Summit's new YWCA. "The 'Y'," (She said, "tries to make it possible for women and girls to understand others that are different and to include not just their own community, but the whole world." And Miss Palmer, director of the Elizabeth "Y", summed up the philosophy By saying, "The fundamental purpose is to help tie individual through group participation and by building better individuals, a better society." .

Several years ago, this formerly intimate article of wearing apparrel emerged to sport in public first as beach wear and later as' play suits. Of course, they were made in gayly printed fabrics and fancied up with ruffles but they're still bras—and who knows more about making them than the manufacturer who specializes in them especially the strapless variety which are a real engineering job. But then, a bras is only half the suit, so the logical step is for that manufacturer to launch out into producing the matching shorts So sensible — but who's to buy them?
