Improvement Campaign Is Launched By Hutchinson's Civic Clubs 'Make Hutchinson better homes, better yards, better streets." That's the keynote of a campaign being launched by the Hutchinson Real Estate Board, and various community clubs. And credit must be given to the South Side Improvement club for taking the lead.

Already a street-by-strcet organization is being formed in the south end of the city to push the improvement campaign on each street. doing no good to anyone, and hurting the value of other property in the community. The Old Gardener Takes Of Flowers By The Old Gardener I wonder if anyone has even experimented with a garden of nothing but perennials! What a garden that could be! At the first hint of spring, thero'd be crocuses and snowdrops to tell you about it. Then in May, long before most annual, bloom, you'd have tulips and del' icatc, fragrant lilies of the valley Then a perfect riot of color, as the peonies and iris burst into flower. June would bring big, creamy- white Shasta daisies.

And gorgeous blue-spired larkspur, stretching to-match the majestic height of the nearby hollyhocks, would.be dedicated to phlox of almost every conceivable color. And here and there a clump of crimson and gold gaillardia. And throughout summer and fall you'd feast your eyes on the cool glory of the gladiolus. Then And asters and gorgeous Many other varieties of pero- i nials you would probably have, i But whatever types they, were, youj would undoubtedly have found! that it hardly pays to raise from a good, reliable! nursery is the place to patronize. But just because plants come from the nursery; doesn't mean that they don't require feeding, like all other growing things.

When you prepare the soil, you should mix in some complete plant food, using a pint to each 25 square feet. And every year it is a good plan to feed your perennials before they start growing, so that you. don't injure young shoots. Apply your food at the rate of one rounded tablespoonful per square foot of surface area. Such feeding will' give you earlier bloom, deeper color, and healthy, disease-resistant plants.

It will, 1 mean, if the plant food you use contains, all eleven, elements that growing things need from in scientifically balanced: proportions. Fortunately you can gel plant food today that leaves no doubt on that score. Representatives of the various civic clubs, such as Rotary, Lions, Kiwanis, Metro, the Garden club and others will be called together soon to organise a city-wide lawn improvement campaign. The Garden club is now pushing a lawn and flower garden contest school among the Hutchinson. children of The South Side Improvement club has purchased a carload of Chinese elms, through the Wagoner nursery to be distributed for tree-planting along streets and in yards.

A. Swartzell, 201 East Bigger, who is interested in street improvement in the south end of the city, said a new type of curb and gutter has been worked out which can be put in at 50 cents per foot, as compared with the present price of SI.10.

Speakers of jirominence will Start Work On Post Office? Expected Will Be Called For Before Long Within a few days, it is expected the approved plans for the new postoffice building, at First and Poplar will be received from Washington, and the federal department will be ready to receive bids and award contracts.

Construction of the new post- office should be underway by the first of May, it is thought. It will be the outstanding piece of construction in Hutchinson this season. Industrially speaking the spring building program will center around two large grain elevator jobs in East Hutchinson, a half million bushel addition to the C. D. Jennings Grain Co.

elevator on East Second in the 1500 block, and a 700,000 bushel addition at the Farmers Cooperative terminal elevator on Halstead, south of First. The addition at the Farmers Co-Op elevator will give that plant 1,400,000 bushels capacity, and that at the Jennings elevator will increase the capacity to 2, 000,000 bushels, and will give Hutchinson elevators a total capacity of 11.450,000 bushels. More Oil Activity Another notable Item is con struction in this immediate vi cinity is the increased activity in oil development. Scores of rotary rigs are in operation. Oil drilling crews that had gone to Illinois and elsewhere are coming back.

Real estate men say the increased oil activity in this section is being reflected in increased calls for houses by oil workers, "We've had half a dozen oil families in within the past week looking for houses," said one realtor, at the meeting of the Real Estate Board. "Nearly all of them were moving back from Illinois." Additional Elevators Chalmers Borton have contracts under, way or four new grain elevators in this district. One is at Inman for the Friesen Grain another at Cheney for an elevator concern; a third at Garden Plain for the Farmers cooperative company and the fourth at Okeene, for a mill company.
