When buying lawn seed don’t be fooled by an attractive package. It's what inside that really brings results. The seed analysis on the package states grass variety, germination, purity and weed seed content within the package. This information should be your guide in buying quality lawn seed. Many reliable seed and turf suppliers sell several lawn seed mixtures which vary in value of seed, use and price. It should be remembered that each pound of the better grades contains a larger number of seeds of the permanent grasses which give a long-lasting lawn. It pays to buy the best, especially the newer bluegrass varieties. Avoid lawn grass mix-

Indoor plant lighting
COLLEGE STATION, Tex. (UPI i — Indoor gardening need not be limited by window space, according to Texas A&M horticulturist Everett Janne. “You can still grow attractive plants with the aid of artificial lights,” Janne said. “Flourescent lamps provide an excellent source of light because they give off very little heat and can be placed near the plant to proride high light intensities.” He said standard cool lamps are most popular, and each fix ture should contain at least two 40-watt lamps. “This fixture should be suspended over a bench or table not more than one foot above the trays or flats containing the plants,” Janne said. “This will provide sufficient light to produce good plants of top quality if they are light-

new markets.
“Where today it's a house and two cars,” she said confidently, “in 1975 it will be a house, two or three cars, a camper, boat and motorcycle— possibly a second, resort-type
home.
“Consumer expenditures for home, eduction and recreation will increase very rapidly as vacations become longer and the workweek gets shorter.” More leisure time, in Mrs. Behrend’s view, not only will allow more time for recreation, but it also will stimulate more “moonlight businesses” and, she said, many a small business started under just such stimulus in somebody’s garage or basement.

lows the pattern of similar treaties which Russia drew up for a 20-year period with her East European allies after the
war.
The case of Hungary, howev-
er, is a special one.
It was here that Russia intervened with tanks to crush
the 1956 uprising.
The Prussians, alarmed that their East European empire was threatened following the de-Stalinization by Nikita Khrushchev, left nothing to chance. They moved four divisions into Hungary which have
been there ever since.
Eleven years have passed. The regime now claims it
drawal from East Europe. So the four divisions will stay in Hungary. Moscow has indicated that a withdrawal will now have to await a major East-West disarmament arrangement that will provide an American pullout from Europe.
