State Posy Needs Heat
“HE ZINNIA is Indiana's state flower. Doubtless because it is a native of Mexico and not the Hoosier state! But it does love our sun and summer heat. And
it will grow in spite of considerable drouth. For top results it needs spacing of plants, fertile
soil, plenty of water.
You can have the whopping big
flowers of the giant varieties or the small Mexican, the new Persian carpet, the attractive lilliputs. , The so-called creeping zinnia or sanvitalia, though not a true zinnia, takes the same ‘culture and is worth trying. “The recently new splashed and streaked flowers ‘of the candystick zinnias are delightful.

It will | flower quickly from seed you plant this spring. It will even grow in rather poor sandy soil. In good | soil it gets quite tall, about three feet. So plant it where its size will not hide smaller plants. | The pink flowers make pretty bouquets. The little blossoms on the outside of the round flower

Blackwood on Bridge—
North's Bid Raises Question
"THERE still seems to be some confusion about the meaning of North's second bid in today’s deal—the
raise of partner's one bid in a major suit to four. The rexplanation depends on the answer to the question: “Who opened the bidding?” For example, if your partner opens with one spade, next hand passes, and you bid four spades, your partner has no right to figure you for a strong hand. This bid_ usually made principally on distributional values.
Your hand is probably something like: 8S--K1087 3. H-2.D—-32. C-A J 8714
However, when you yourself open the bidding with, say, one
heart, partner - responds one spade, and you ‘raise him to four spades, you are making
just-about the biggest bid in the
book.
» n ” IT WAS THIS second situation which came up in today’s hand. After having "passed, South wanted to make a
stronger bid than one heart |
over his. partner's club opening. He didn't relish .a jump bid on his weak heart suit, however, and he settled for a simple ‘one heart response. Now, when North went all the. way to four, South had every justification -for going on. - As a matter of fact North had little enough for his jump to four hearts. - > : The contract was. hardly a laydown. West opened a spade and the queen won. A heart was led and West, took the ace and led ‘another spade which was taken by the king. An-
other heart to dummy’s king |
cleared the trump suit.
s ” o APPARENTLY THERE was no way to get away from a diamond loser but South finally found a way. He led dummy’s ace of spades and discarded a small diamond. He next cashed the queen and ten of hearts, West dropping two diamonds. Three rounds of clubs followed, ending in the closed hand. At this point South played his last heart. West was down to the king-jack of diamonds and the ten of spades. Dummy's last cards were the six of spades and the, ur of diamonds.

* * Here's a new idea in lawn-mak-ing! Wayside Floral Gardens recommends ‘time-proven farm practice for starting your new lawn or for reseeding bare spots-in established turf. Wayside packages the ‘Wayside Starter Mixture of four easy-to-start nurse grasses. Sow these now. On bare soil if you like. As soon as this quick-growing sturdy grass is tall enough to cut, sow Wayside’s Sunny (or Shady Mixture. These are mixtures of slower growing, longlived permanent grasses, to sow on your newly -established temporary turf. The grasses -will protect the seed and young grass plants from. hot sun, beating rain, and drying winds so it can get started. Later these permanent grasses will erowd out the nurse grasses to give ‘you a well established lawn. Wayside does not recommend their starter mixture for established lawns except for large bare spots in need of reseeding.” Wayside Floral Gare dens, 7301 Pendleton Pike. CH2222. Visitors welcome.
