Too Much Water Declared as Harmful to Plants as Drought. This is the seventh of a series of articles bv Donald Gray, famous landscape consultant, on how to make a beautiful sarden of your back yard. BY DONALD GRAY NEA Landscape Consultant ALL the dreams in the world will not make a beautiful garden, unless healthy plants are growing and blooming in it. You read about velvet lawns, but you can't get them without first having good soil with available chemical foods for the plants to live on. It does not matter much whether the soil is clay, sand or rock; there must be drainage and there must be humus to a sufficient depth in the soil to encourage deep root growth. In most cases, unproductive soil is due to a mechanical defect, rather than a lack of plant food, for most soils contain chemicals that the plant wants if it can get hold of them. Water is a ' necessity for all growth but it must appear and disappear, intermittently. Plants cannot grow without it, neither can they grow in it all the time. a tt n JUST as many plants die of wet feet as do those from drought. To prevent this, drain your garden with agricultural farm tile in lines twenty feet apart at a depth of not less than two feet. Even pure sand can be so compact in the subsoil that water can not get through it. Work the soil until it is friable. Spade deeply and often before planting. Where plants exist cultivate the soil around the roots,

even if some of the roots are broken. an a DEEP cutivation of the soil will remedy many of its defects. Heavy clay soil can have ashes, cinders or slag worked into it to make it porous. These same materials in sand soil will help hold the moisture during drought. Peat moss or humus also can be used for a mechanical means cf breaking up clods. There are some soils that are naturally alkaline and others that are acid. Where the section leans toward one type or the other, little can be done in isolated gardens to grow the kind of plant that has an opposite prefer nee. Acid loving plants, such as rhododendrons, will noL grow in a marl section. But the average soil that becomes acid from the lack of aeration can be corrected by digging the soil deeply and by introducing into it porosity in the form of cinders or ashes. Get your soil right mechanically, and plants will grow. DANCE TO BE HELD AT ST. ANNE’S HALL Affair Is Sponsored by Members of Mars Hill Church. Members of St. Anne’s church in Mars Hill will hold a dance tomorrow night in St. Anne's hall, with music by the radio stars, Al, Andy and Doc.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

INDEPENDENCE FOR FILIPINOS CALLEDJRROR *V Secretary Stresses Fear of Aggression by Belligerent Japan. Almost every foreigner living in the Phillipine islands believes that granting independence to the islands was a mistake, Stephen Pronko. for seven years a Y. M. C. A. secretary there, said here yesterday. Mr. Pronko, who returned to the United States this spring, said the two chief reasons for this belief were fear of Japanese aggression and a certainty that living standards of the Filipinos would be lowered. He declared the Japanese aggression already had started through a process of peaceful penetration. Brought here to speak before the Rotary Club, Mr. Pronko listed the following additional reasons for the widespread belief that independence was a mistake: 1. The Filipinos have practically no army or navy. 2. They have not been, politically, in the experimental stage long enough to be ready to take over the reigns of their own government. 3. They are not an united nation, but, instead, are sharply divided by such matters as language and religion. Mr. Pronko said that much of the desire for independence in the Phillipines had arisen from the study in government schools of America’s struggle in 1776 to free itself from a government superimposed from across an ocean.
