Sunny Skies Spurring Clean-up
Drive In Kingston Township
This weekend three judges will
visit the yards of contestants who
have filed entries in the Clean-Up
Drive being sponsored in Kingston
Township.
Purpose of the campaign is not to
laud garticularly those who have
spenifigreat sums to add shrubs and
floral arrangements to their resi-
dences but rather to encourage
those who have had an accumul-
ation of debris lying about for some
time. Really a tidying effort, resi-
dents are urged to help in making
the area a neater place in which
to live.
Following the pattern set ‘by
Wyoming Valley towns, Kingston
Township Supervisors are the only
governing body among local munici-
palities, to join in the ambitious
program.
Two gardening experts who de-
light in working in their own yards
are responsible in promoting the
drive. John Funke, Trucksville, and
Edward Hall, Shavertown, can be
seen any of these nice days or early
evenings planting, weeding and ar-
ranging their bulbs or plants. Both
men, members of the supervisory
boar @are responsible for promoting
the “campaign. in their own com-
munity.
In an effort to spur greater in-
terest, Mr. Funke has offered several
prizes to be awarded. Chairman
LaRoy Ziegler named him campaign
chairman,
To date many entries have not
been received and with Friday set |
as the filing deadline, those in-
terested are asked to leave their
name and address at Evans or
Hall's ‘Drug Stores in Shavertown,
Cairns or the Economy Store in
Trucksville, Sutton’s Store, Carver-
ton, or the Kingston Township Mu-
nicipal Building. Telephone entries
will also be accepted.
Everell Chadwick, Mrs. Jane
Schooley and Mrs. Pat Baird, all
well versed in garden care, are the
judges. The three will again tour
the township after June 11, clos-
ing date and select the winners.
Final decision will rest entirely upon
the three judges. Mr. Funke states
that the supervisors will have noth-
ing to do with this part of the
campaign but have furnished town-
ship trucks and crews to assist in
hauling away trash. The men were
on the job early this week and will
pick up again on June 6 and 7.
If you have not yet entered the
contest, be sure to join your neigh-
bors before the weekend. If you
have an empty lot make it a little
more presentable too.

Read Before Spraying
Read the label first! This simple
rule is basic for safe, effective use
of chemical pesticides in the gar-
{ den.
Since all chemical pesticides are
poisons, and some are fatal, they
must be used with care. Read the
entire label thoroughly, then follow
all directions exactly.
All-purpose mixtures are satis-
! factory for much pest control, but
sometimes a specific chemical for a
specific pest is more efficient. In any
case, use only on plants and for
pests listed on the label.
| Since many poisons can be ab-|
sorbed through the skin or inhaled,
always wash off immediately any
| that spill on ‘the skin and avoid
breathing in the fumes. Don’t smoke
while spraying and wash hands wit
soap and water after spraying. Lock
up chemicals to protect children and
pets. Guard against air and water
polution in disposing of left-over
chemicals and mepty containers.
\ Natural controls will keep pests
at a minimum in a clean, well-cared
for garden. When chemical help is
needed, choose the right one for the
job, and READ THE LABEL!

Latticework Revival In
Weatherproof Materials
Latticework, which enclose thou- |
sands of back porches, is gaining
new popularity in decorative con- |
struction, both indoors and out.
Lattice designs range from the |
basic criss-crossed slats to ornate |
combinations of patterns. “New |
weatherproof preservatives make |
wooden latticework more durable,
‘and "modern plastics and steel allow
for greater flexibility of design.
Latticework can give privacy and
at the same time give an airy, spa-
cious! iappearance to the enclosed
space. In the garden it provides
support for climbing plants and pro-
tection from wind, without cutting
out sun and air.
The new popularity of latticework
is reflected in its use in fabric
designs, wallpaper, and open-work
ceramics. \
Cinnamon-Cider Glaze
Cinnamon and cider give a dis-
tinctive flavor to baked ham. For
a 7 to 8 pound ham, make a paste
of , cup of sugar, 1% teaspoons
cinnamon and 1 tablespoons pre-
pared mustard. Spread over the
ham in a shallow pan, add 3 cup
of cider, and bake at 375 for one
hour, basting every 15 minutes. Add
more cider if needed.

May Is Building Her House
May is building her house. With apple blossoms
She is roofing over the glimmering rooms;
Of the oak and the beech hath she builded its beams,
And, spinning all day at her secret looms,
With arras of leaves each wind-sprayed wall
She pictureth over, and peopleth it all
With echoes and dreams,
And singing of streams.
May is building her house of petal and blade;
Of the roots of the oak is the flooring made,
With a carpet of mosses and lichen and clover,
Each small miracle over and over,
And tender, traveling green things strayed.
Her windows the morning and evening star,
And her rustling doorways, ever ajar
With the coming and going
Of fair things blowing,
The thresholds of the four winds are.
May is building her house. From the dust of things
She is making the songs and the flowers and the wings;
From October's tossed and trodden gold
She is making the young year out of the old;
Yea! out of the winter's flying sleet
She is making all the summer sweet,
And the brown leaves spurned of November's feet
She is changing back again to spring's.

A fireplace is an attractive, in- |

crease the value of your home. Ac-
cording to real estate men in the
know, a home with a hearth not
only brings a better resale price,
but may even help to sell your
house more rapidly. But whether
you see it as a good investment,

Blackspot on roses, which can
make the leaves turn yellow and
drop off, can be controlled by regu-
lar care. Remove spotted leaves as
they appear and spray weekly with
folpet or maneb. Avoid overhead
and late-day watering.
