. - . AS IN other Indianapolis high schools, changes are made in the Howe faculty from year to year. These shifts may be prompted by the teacher's desire to continue graduate study. But despite the fact that Howe, too, has its faculty revisions, it also has a nucleus of teachers who have taught in the Rast Side classrooms since the building's construction in 1037. In addition to Principal Charles M. Sharp and Vice Principal Clarence R. Clayton, who have been with Howe since its. opening, there are seven teachers listed on the “Famous First Faculty.” Among these are Miss Helen Allen, home economics department chairman; Mrs. Mildred D. Loew, dean of girls and mathematics instructor; Mrs. Margaret Rowe, head of the commercial department; Miss Janet Keller, chairman of the art department; Miss Mary Thumma, Spanish instructor, and BE. A. Patterson, chairman of the industrial arts department,

~ ” . IN ADDITION to the 10-year teachers at Howe, there are also present on campus three members of the custodial staff who have served since the school was built. They are Roy Horton, school engineer; Arthur (“Shorty”) Page and Elmer Summit. Considering all this, it comes as no surprise that Howe, just celebrating its 10th Anniversary, is said to be the city's fastest growing high school.

\GARDENING—

Setting Out Roses Is

By MARGUERITE SMITH

GARDENERS THIS WEEK

are spading off madly in all di-

rections. You're a wise gardener if you can distinguish between

chores you can put off and those

You can put off lawn rolling, saves you time—no raking it up. Peas ought to be sowed at once (and lettuce and onions for early eating out of the garden), but most seeds can just as well go in later. Shrubs to be moved around fn your own yard can walt, but nursery stock needs prompt setting out. . . " THE first four of the five steps illustrated (right) for the planting of roses might just as well be labeled “For planting shrubs, trees or tomato plants.” i 1. Make a hole the right depth and large enough. 2. Partly cover roots, working soil over them with fingers. Let no fertilizer touch the roots. 8. Pack soil firmly by tramping it down. For small plants (as tomatoes), firm it down with hands. 4. Water (Ygies oughly to settle dirt close to roots and get rid of air pockets. Then fill the hole with fine soil. Do NOT firm soil after watering. The fifth step is for roses only: Mound the soil until new growth starts. : 2 = » THIS IS “The Case of theUnbalanced Fertilizer” or “What Became of the Broccoli’s Head?” John Butler, 1528 Burdsal Pkwy., last year fertilized a vacant lot, that had been gardened a number of years without fertilizer, with a thick layer of chicken manure. He used no additional fertilizer, Result: His broccoli, for example, “grew wonderful stalks but didn’t head.” The moral: “When you use a heavy application of manure, balance its nitrogen with extra phosphorus and potash, such as a farm fertilizer analyzing 0-20-20. One formula suggests, for each 100 square feet of garden, five pounds of poultry manure, five pounds of superphosphate and one pound of potassium chloride. > " . »

GARDENERS around the town: Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin Popp, 6171 N. Delaware St., as we surveyed their small vegetable garden, “Sure, we've planted our bushbeans. What have we got to lose if they do freeze?” . . . Mrs, Herbert Krauch, 930 E. 40th 8t., upending bricks to make a small retaining wall beside their driveway iris bed, “I thought I was a bricklayer but I'guess I'm not. Do you think it hurts these iris rhizomes to stick so far out of the ground?” (No, iris roots always work their way up in the world.) . . . Mrs. J. W. Hannon, 4456 Washington Blvd. digging stray dandelions out of the front yard, “But I expect there'll just be another crop tomorrow.” Her sister and helper, Miss Edna Worner, visiting here from Kansas, thinks wise relatives don’t visit in dandelion time, » » » CONTROL iris borer now, says Prof. Gordon Milne of Purdue University, Spray all your iris with a 3 to 5 per cent solution of DDT (or dust the plants), Keep after them, too.
