SECTION 2 - PAAR ft - pv.AINDEALER - WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER I, 1ST7 IN YOUR GARDEN lsx3Qc*c*x**%%%%ioocssV Forcing Bulbs For Indoor Bloom One of the most rewarding activities, guaranteed to brighten the dull days of late winter, is forcing of spring flowering bulbs. Forcing, the term used for ; .this procedure, is not .technically correct because in reality the bulbs are treated as 'close to nature's way as possible. The bulbs need a long period of cold after planting so ^that good roots develop. Temperatures need to be .between 35 and 40 degrees F. n for about 12 weeks. Freezing is .not necessary and it stops the root growth. These conditions >.are provided by burying the .pots in a pit or cold frame, and . insulating with a straw and soil ; to prevent freezing. Then the bulbs need a bright 60 degree , place for a couple of weeks to . allow the flowers to develop. . Early November is the ideal time to plant bulbs for forcing. Select high quality, large bulbs from a reliable dealer. .Varieties particularly suited for forcing are usually marked • as such in displays. " Containers must have good drainage, shallow clay or plastic pots are best. Prepare a potting soil of one-third garden soil, one-third peatmoss or leafmold, and one-third coarse ' sand or perlite. To pot the bulbs, cover the r '.drain hole in the pot with a ' broken piece of flower pot, - curved side up. Then add one inch of broken pot chips or pea gravel. Add enough potting soil ' to hold the bulbs so that the tips 1 are just above the rim of the pot. Set the bulbs firmly against the soil and space them ' so that each bulb just touches the next bulb or the rim of the ' pot. Fill the spaces with soil to ' within Vfe inch of the rim of the pot and water thoroughly. Some thought needs to be used in preparing a place for cold " storage. Many gardeners use a pit dug into the ground. An unheated garage where tem­ peratures can be kept just above freezing, an insulated cold frame, an unheated basement, root cellar or spare _ refrigerator are all possibilities. Remember, temperatures must be kept between 35 and 40 degrees, the bulbs must be kept moist but protected from drowning and rodents must be kept out. Examine the bulbs periodically to make sure they are developing. After about 12 weeks remove some pots and knock the soil ball out to see how roots are developing. If the bulbs are well rooted and tops have begun to grow the pots are ready to bring indoors for development of the flowers. Bring them along slowly in a bright cool place. Rapid forcing can cause blasting of the flower buds. Bring in a few pots at a time for continuous bloom. Tulips, daffodils, and hyacinths, as well as small bulbs such as crocus, grape hyacinth, and squill force nicely. Clear Message Gov. Thompson recently proposed a seven-bill criminal • justice package, including six- . year mandatory minimum sentences with no probation and no parole for serious crimes called Class X offenses. Thompson told general assembly members who will consider the proposed legislation that "To the criminal, Class X says that if • found guilty, you will go to jail for a substantial period; you will not beat the system through probation or a slap on > the wrist. To the prosecutor, S Class X says that violent \ crimes should not be plea- f bargained away. To the judges, ^ Pass X says no more lenient * sentences for violent offenders.

J l P E R S O N HERE AND THERE i IN BUSINESS Plan Maior Plant Addition At Intermatlc A major plant addition of 80,000 square feet, the second expansion in four years, will be undertaken at its timer and heater plant in Spring Grove by Intermatic. Inc. Cost of the move, which will bring ,Intermatic's manufac­ turing and office space to 300,000 square feet, will amount to more than $2,000,000. Ground is scheduled to be broken in April, 1978, with completion targeted for Sep­ tember of next year. "The expansion was dictated by a growing demand for our products, most of which save energy for consumers and industrial users," Jim Miller, president, said. "In the past two years, our sales volume has increased sharply from $18,017,000 to $33,234,000, a gain of oer cent." From the American Medical Assodatiaoi Handicapped Adults Does someone in your household have a physical handicap? The American Medical association points out that it is understandable and quite normal that you should wish to "do for" the disabled member of your family, but it may be more helpful to allow him to do for himself. To make sure you are really being helpftd, it is wise to consult with the patient's physician and have him outline the patient's real capabilities and limitations. It is possible that the patient is not interested in minimizing his physical problems. Real psychological problems are best handled with the advice of a physician, but there are several factors that illustrate the type of problems that may be encountered in living in a household with a handicapped person : The dependent nature of some people, which their disability tends to accentuate; the lack of intellectual ability or educational background; just plain laziness ; the need to let others do the work, after having spent a lifetime of "doing for others." Hie parents fed the children should take care of them; the aesthetic type who may object to equipment or certain techniques (such as use of mouthstick, wearing of spUhts) because they are not cosmetics or graceful in use; and the false expectation of complete recovery, so that devices aren't seen as necessary. Once you know what can be realistically expected of t^e handicapped individual, and you know that he is desirous of receiving help, then your help can prove invaluable. Ev$n here, though, a few points of procedure may prove useful: Offer help, but don't force it upon someone; And out whit activity is most important to the individual and start with that - eating, putting on make­ up, reading, playing cards; seek the patient's idea. Otherwise you may be only gratifying your own desires; if possible, seek the guidance or consultation of a physician; keep an open and receptive mind to the ideas of others; arid keep devices simple.
