A survey of state gasoline, cigarette and sales tax rates by Commerce Clearing House in Chicago showed Thursday that: — No other state in the union Horticultural Tips SPIDER MITES: Several kinds, including the Spruce mite, European red mite and the Two-spotted mite, are serious pests of ornamental trees and shrubs. Evergreens, such els arbor vitae, hemlock, juniper and spruce Eire most likely to be injured; but deciduous trees, shrubs and hedges can also be attacked. Mites have sucking mouth parts and feed by drawing out plant sap. They may appear any time during the growing season but are most destructive during hot, dry weather. Often the first indication of their presence is a bronze, or sticky appearance of the foliage. Close examination may reveal an almost invisible webbing over the leaves and branches. The best way to make sure spider mites are causing the trouble is to hold a piece of white paper under the branch and then tap the branch sharply. If mites are present they will fail off and can be seen crawling over the paper. CONTROL: Apply Aramite, Diazinon, Dimethoate, Dimite, Kelthane or Malathion. Two applications may be necessary.

DEAR HELOISE: I am the mother of a very active six-month-old boy. Because of all the toys, his playpen was cluttered and confus-
ing to him.
I purchased two of those plastic stack vegetable bins, stacked one on top of the other and tied them to the braces of his playpen in one corner. After I have put all his toys in the stacked bins, he pulls out just the ones he wants to play with. This keeps the clutter off the floor of the pen and gives him more room.
DEAR HELOISE: I wired a luggage tag on my personal folding shopping cart. It has my name, address and phone number on it. Now I can identify it easily when I leave it outside the checker's stall at the supermarket and it's not so easy to steal.

POSNER WASHINGTON (UPI) - The biggest housing bill in history nears congressional approval with only minor adjustments necessary to assure agreement on programs to help poorer Americans buy homes, find apartments and get riot insurance. The House approved the multibillion-dollar package Wednesday by a vote of 294 to 114, sending It to conference where small differences with the Senate-passed version will be reconciled. Basically, the House authorization calls for 1.7 million new or rehabilitated housing units at a cost of $5.3 billion over three years. But some of its longterm provisions would obligate the government to spend as much as $50 billion over a 40year period. Only authorization for the programs is covered by the bill. Actual funds must be voted later.
