Was there ever a time when you took a chance that coomn/^ oimU n?v*nl 1 o^viiitu outu a oiucui 1 i?i\ yuu just laughed it off? 2. Did you ever find it 'justified' to ignore a Safety Rule because it just didn't seem practical to follow it? 3.

Planters make /eleome gifts for any occaion. especially to sick riends. t x 7:4 u i wiui mis increase in poplarity comes many problems i plant care. The following uggestions may help you to ave nice healthy plants: 1. Get container large nough for future root rowth. 2. Use a light loamy texured soil. It may be necesarv to make a soil mixture ?y using one part soil, one tart peat, and one part sand, 'o every three gallons of soil aixture, add one full teacup if bone meal and one-half eacup of commercial fertiliser. O T-- ? 1 x- 1 ' * ' 1 o. in pianung do sure tnat ou do not injure the root j vstem. A small hole should >e made for each plant, and ( he soil should be carefully mlled to the plant and gentv firmed around the roots, "lever over fill the container { cith soil as space should be ! jrovided for watering. 4. A regular schedule for catering house plants is advisable. The soil should feel noist at all times, but should lever be allowed to become cater sogged from too much catering. 5. Plants need light and lir, yet tender foliage should lever be placed in the direct am nor in a draft. This will Irv and parch the leaves. fi. An occasional feeding vith a good plant food is lclpful. It keeps the plants n a vigorous growing condiion. Small fertilizei tablets ire available at most stores ind greenhouses. 7. As the plants grow, it nav be necessary to do some mining to keep them at a lesirable size and to encour lgc new side shoots to sprout. Should the plant become too largo for the container, it should he transplanted into a larger container or planter. 8. If insects, such as red spider or plant lice, attack the foliage plants, they may be sprayed occasionally with an insecticide, such as Black Loaf "40" or a 50 per cent Malathion solution. However, never use these sprays on African Violets or Ferns. AUGUS1 CLINTON Helen J. Butler?Spinning Robert L. Etters?Spinning Margie Fulmer?Spinning Betty J. Shepard?Spinning Nellie D.

Not just sick ? like the time you had flu, or convalescent ? like the time you had your appendix out. But really sick for a lon^ time with a serious disease, a rlicnnco tV\nt r?r?nlrl trill \rr\n if you didn't take care. Tuberculosis is one disease that usually means a long period of illness. Modern treatment with drugs and surgery has shortened the hospital stay for some patients. but they still have to complete their cure at home. How would you behave? First thing, you're a little scared. You recall that TB used to mean certain death or a life of invalidism. You know that modern medicine has changed that picture, yet you know that thousands die of the disease every year. You've heard that many of those who recover have had to change their usual way of life in order to stay well and a v o i d another breakdown with TB. You wonder and worry about tne future. You worry about the present, too. If you're a husband and father, how is the family getting along without your paycheck? If you're a mother, what is your husband, what are the children doing without you? These are real problems; not just the fantasies of illness. You have those, too. When you are sick, you're sick all over, menially and emotionally as well as physically. SEPTEMBER, 1957 r, 1957 MILLS Ina B. Hooper?Weaving Jerry Huey?Weaving Chestley King?Weaving James B.

N. in Invalid You aren't always able to be rational about your situation. Some people become childishly irritable, have tantrums, and make unreasonable demands. Others react like good children, but become too dependent on the protected atmosphere of illness and resist getting back into the real world of well people. Some people are even hostile and aggressive, and break all the rules designed to help them get well. Too many break off their treatment before they are well. No matter what kind of invalid you might become, it doesn't sound like fun, does it? TB means tragic waste of human time and energy ? especially tragic because it's unnecessary. TB can be prevented. Cooperate with your Tuberculosis association's efforts to prevent the spread of TB.
