This con-lsts of freezing slow germinating seed in any ■ice cube and letting it remain frozen for few days, then thawing (, uf and planting. Reports say this rks but not enough experimentiii '. has been done to make a sate general deduction. The method is to put the seed in one of the cube compartments half filled with water and freeze It. Then fill with water and freeze the entl e r übe, this method being used to get the seed into the center o the uhe. ■ flood tcxults have been reported in ‘"■lng t: is method on iris seeds to get them to germinate th.- same -eason they ripen or to speed them up if they have been kept over winter instead of being sown in the fall. Seeds of the trolling and dlctarnPius .r burning bush, usually slow I to -ie minate are subjects for such ; experiments as are seme of the | slow germinating tPt imroses. But the jreat majority of perennials germinate readily enough and need only to be sown with ordinary care in the open gr und to give a bountiful crop which can be transplanted and gr iwn along to lie placed in permanent qmrrtes early this fall. Raise ent ugh perennials to nave a surplus suii'tly. The quality varies. With a surplus supply the finest ty.; es can be selected for permtnent residents of the garden and the less desirable ones can be discs de I. This is true of delphiniums, pyretl rums, and oiiental poppies. 'lt is also a necessary plan it colors are to be selected. o 285 Air Travelers Set Record Paris — (UP) — Three hundred and eighty-five travelers sets the t ecord at Leßourget airdrome.

ROOSEVELT MEN CLAIM VICTORY ON FIRST VOTE 1 ■ IIX I’l-.l > !‘i il.’M |- \G|-; ox|.;i similar to the Minority Bingham reI peal proposal which the Republican convention rejected last week. Roosevelt will be placed In nomination by Judge John K. Mack of Poughkeepsie. This move was interpreted among politicians today as possibly designed to avoid hav- ,, ing the New York City democracy 1 i.sponsor him. V From the purely political view--1 point, strategists considered the ;. selection as appealing to some of y the eastern Alfred E. Smith terriI tory, Mack, like Senator Thomas g J. Walsh, the Roosevelt candidate s for permanent chairman of the con- >. ventlon. Is a Catholic. e Roosevelt recently brought about s the naming of a southern Methoe diet. Senator Albeit W. Barkley of It Kentucky us temporary chairman It and convention keynoter. Thus the Roosevelt men, intenp tionally or otherwise, have made '■ selections strongly representative a of the two sides in the religious iso sue which played so strong a part e in the Smith-Hoover 1928 camn paign. ' The prohibition issue is shaping n toward a division between the two parties on whether the states or i- congress should determine the v method of manufacture, sale and h distribution. p Little has been said in either f parly group about the possibility s of rushing through modification of II the Volstead act while waiting for p tlie states to pass on the proposed ■ constitutional amendment. Smith ■ urged such stop-gap action in his n campaign in 1928. Shouse recentI ly suggested it. e Roosevelt forces opened their ■- headquarters here on the lakefront . over the week-end. Campaign Man- . ager Farley, hung up a U. S. map I showing Roosevelt states in red, ;. forty-one states an d territories either instructed, pledged or favorable. They counted also on having j al least a friendly, if not instructed, delegation in Indiana as a result of the state Democratic convention in Indianapolis today. The total first ballot vote claimed by Farley for Roosevelt is 691. 1 He figured that before the vote is > officially announced, sufficient addi- > Itional votes would switch to Roose- . velt in sufficient numbers to push > him up to 770 — the two-thirds > necessary to nominate. , Roosevelt forces claim every- . thing except the following: t Alfred E.

Ritchie of Maryland— I Maryland, 16. j Sixteen Pennsylvania votes and i 49 in New York are listed as doubtful by the Roosevelt forces. | Omitting the doubtful New York and Pennsylvania votes, the Roose-1 j velt people concede to their oppon-1 ents more than the one-third neces-l ■ sary to stop him. Their answer to i | that is that several states are i strongly for Roosevelt as second i I choice, they expect some of these: I particularly Missouri.

By HARRISON CARROLL. Copyright. 11133. King Featurog SyndlcaU. Inc, HOLLYWOOD, Cal., June 00.— If plans now being discussed go through, California may see another great cattle-drive such as the

o1 d rancheros used to put on in the early days of the state. Mary Pickford and Doug1a s Fairbanks leave here tomorrow to discuss the proposal with Sidney Fish, son of Mrs. Stuyvesant Fish of New York, who operates a large ranch near Monterey. The film couple would buy a herd of blooded cattle from Fish

Mary Pickford

and transport them in early California style on one stage of the journey to their Rancho Santa Fe. The full distance is about 400 miles and would, of course, present innumerable difficulties. The picturesque phase of the idea is very attractive to Fairbanks and he wants to go through with it if the physical details can be arranged. Most important of these is the necessity for the journey to be made in such away that the stock will not be injured. At last, the lowdown on the Garbo situation. Says Jimmy Durante: “The pot wasn’t big enough for Garbo and me. She went.” HOLLYWOOD OBSERVATION POST. Lilyan Tashman’s Beverly Hills house—the one with the mirrored walls—is one in a pink and white color scheme. And here’s a new wrinkle.
