Black Cloth F. ols. em ; Into Blooming Before Schedule

By JOE COLLIER

Most of the blooms now on

exhibition at the Chrysanthemum Society of America show opening today in the Murat Temple are there because they have been deceived, defrauded, hoodwinked and misled for months, And there is evidence aplenty to prove the axiom that what they don’t know doesn’t hurt them, They are beautiful. In order that most of these-blooms are now blooms at all, the growers had to start more than a month ago fooling them about what ‘time it was. Night (Phony) Falls

Black cloth was spread over them at 5 p. m. and left there until 7 a. m., making a synthetic night, and encouraging the plants to think it was much later in the year than it was. Because this was kept up, the plants geared themselves for a phony fall.and spread into bloom. Ordinarily, they would only now be getting ready fo bloom, and the show would be no show at all. The chrysanthemum family is

very ubldiiitons, There are, growers at the show say, between 5000 and 6000 varieties, of which from 300 to 400 were introduced by Indiana florists. . Just in Case

For years now, even the smallest Indiana florists have kept a couple of seedling boxes around on the off chance that something new and startling in the way of a chrysanthemum would develop. A man in Lafayette, for instance, had a box of these seedlings a long

time ago. One of the seeds appar-|*

ently didn't germinate, and none of the others produced anything spectacular that yout He threw out the dirt. Next year He put the dirt in another box in which he planted carnations. The carnations didn’t amount to much that year, but the seed that had not germinated: the year before burst forth. into the Major Boniraffou, which. for years was the leading commercial variety of chrysanthemum. N

Growers Keep Track

Growers must keep card indexes on parent plants, and upon the om of a bed of some 2000 seedlings, say, the experienced florist may choose a couple of dozen promising youngsters ‘and discard the rest. Sometimes not that many. He selects for durability and for his guess on market appeal. The smallest bloom is one-half inch in diameter, and ' the largest 14% inches. Like a movie pipe organ can imitate almost any kind of noise, so the chrysanthemum can come pretty close to looking like any kind of. flower. You would think some of them were poinsettas, for instance, if you didn’t know they had to be chrysanthemums to get in the show. And others look like asters, The growers say they are popular because they have a neutral odor; because they are so varied and have so many colors; because they are hardy and do not readily die when cut, and because there is a variety for nearly every. purpose. Also, their intelligence quotient is sufficiently low that none has ever dared question the spurious blackcloth fall.

Indiana’s soy bean industry has in the last 15 years,” Hassil Schenck,

said today.

Indiana, have swelled to proportions which may place the crop among

.|the first products of the state, ac-

cording to Mr. Schenck. He explained that the main reasons for the tremendous increase in soy bean planting have been many new uses for the plant and the Federal farm program, which encourages soil restoration, Soy beans are a great benefit to the soil and makes excellent hay and winter food, according to the Farm Bureau president. “It has also been found that soy bean oil is as good: if not re than linseed: oil for the manufacture of paints,” he said. While the ‘uses of the crop are still unestimated, it is believed that still larger crops will be planted in coming years. Mr. Schenck does not believe that the European war will affect t demand for soy beans to any great extent.

heads with which it was born. The child was born to Mr. and Mrs. Emory Herron at: their farm home near Indian Springs, Oct. 17.

Dr. Statzer said a second, smaller |

head projected fromthe base of the skull of a normal head. “There were impressions for nose, eyes, ears and mouth on the second read,” the doctor said, “but no vents. i “I operated ‘at once, amputating only part of the head so the remainder could be used to fix a ligature. T didn't want a new-born baby to lose any blood, and he lost very little.”

Dr. Statzer said he completed the

7 operation five days later and since

he could not tie off tHe wound the bleeding was profuse. “Judging from the amount of blodd,” he said, “there was a wellformed system of blood-vessels and nerves leading ints the second head.” The doctor sald] that since the second operation the baby had. been’

‘normal in all respects and was gain=
