Your rewords will be a I tfying civic pride, a personal joy in the surrounding beauty you I jatc, and perhaps a gratifying hobby. This Committee wants to see a hundred million Azaleas bloom- jt all over Long Island and the starter plantings will be given Azaleas bloom from April to June. With proper arrangement ,^ i ^ u n d our public buildings, railway embankments, parks, and they will dfes.s up bur landscapes with unparalleled beauty. AU.you have to do is to plant them, in small jcwel-like natural set- to great ribbons of blazing color made up of various species blooms. The apartment dweller, too. can take part in this ',^ ^ ^ ^uly program, for some typos of Azaleas live very well as house To make it easy for you to join the Azalea Committee's efforts, ■‘vSsiiQlour-part plan has been set up. The first p art is: ' W -* In the Spring of 1067, the Commitlee will give away 4000 ' one-yeor-oldi'planls of hardy Azaleas. 2. A maximum 15 plants will be given to individuals and a maximum of 40 plants to organizations. 3. Each applicant must submit a written note of request, show ing name and .address. 4. At planting time you w;Jll bo notified where you cah pick up the seedlings. (You can help still more by oilcring to deliver to those who are unable to come for them.) 5. Requests will be honored as they come in. When the 1967 limit of distribution '(4000) has been reached, all requests exceeding that supply will be held over until 1968. 6. Each recipient must agree to give one plant to his neighbor in 1968. Secondly, the Committee will serve, at no charge, as a plant ffeferral agency. Although our primary interest is Azaleas, prac-, pically every plant adds beauty to its surroundings if properly cared , Many householders are seeking shrubs that may be the ones' Byou would like to thin out and remove. Don’t loss away these excess ■plants. If you want to give away or sell some plants, send a note Ito us describing the plants- and giving your telephone number. We Iw ill list it under “Plants Available\ for interested gardeners. This fis a free'service to donors and receivers, to buyers or sellers. - - Thirdlyv..the...Gommittoc..will act as a salvage depot lor the J “Hardy Flowering Pot Plant” given to you as a gift for a special I occasion. Don’t iiirow out the plant .after the flowers fall. Give it I to the Committee and we will place it somewhere in the beautiflea- ' lion program, tagged with the name of the donor. Last, and most important, the Azalea Committeb will act as -an information and coordinating center for everyone interested in the planting of Azaleas. These plants are easily propagated through cuttings or layerings and the procedure is simple and costs very little. We will show you how to do this and will furnish complete directions or direct you to a proper source for instruction. The only contribution we ask from you is a self-addressed, Ramped envelope enclosed with your request for these free plan^^ Very truly yours, MRS. M.

Get your sUrter Banana Bread The first knowledge wc have about bananas is that they were discovered around 300 B.C. along tJiD Indus River. This river is one of the longest in the Himalayas, stretching over 1900 miles. But it was a long time between then and 1516 when they were brought to the New World. There arc about 30 species of this fruit which hos .such uni versal appcr.l and so many u.scs; ' from fruit cup, to bread to souf- fJos. Bananas are very nutritious and if anyone cares about their caloric value, one banana has 100 calorics. That is a medium size banana. They arc picked green and un ripe doing ihcir “ripening pro cess\ en route to us. As they ma ture they become sweet tasting almost like chestnuts. People can practically exist on -them. For straight eating though Ihey must bo really ripe. Webster'a diction ary dcscribi.;; the tree as grow ing 20 feet higli and having leaves six feel long and one foot broad. A bunch can contain 200 bananas and weigh 70 to 80 pounds. The greatest banana enters 'arc the Bermudians. They grow and cat 2,000,000 pounds a year. In fact they cat so many that they can conceivably be._cal]ed “Ba nana Specialists.\ Their most common is called Chinese or Canary banana but they also have strawberry and some' red bananas.
