Public relations liai- son John Minton of Ma- rine Corps League, De- tachment 1140, Tehama and Red Bluff recently announced that Ron Madewell of Shasta Lake City won a Henry Golden Boy 10-22 Breakdown ri- fle. Detachment 1140 held a raffle for a couple of months for this rifle. Old West in Redding provided the rifle to the group at a reasonable price in order to show support for the Detachment Honor Guard and veterans services or- ganizations. The Honor Guard pro- vides services with rifle volleys and Taps at vet- eran funerals for all mil- itary branches at the Northern California Vet- erans Cemetery at Igo and other locations in Tehama and Shasta counties. The Marine Corps League is a non profit or- ganization. Detachment 1140 meets at 6:30 p.m. on the third Wednesday of each month at Veter- ans Memorial Hall, 735 Oak St. in Red Bluff. The Honor Guard meets on Mondays at the Red Bluff Veterans Hall at 6 p.m. Detachment 1140 is fun and family oriented. Marines, Navy Fleet Ma- rine Force Corpsman and Navy Chaplains who were attached to Marine units are encouraged to attend. Members of the other mil- itary branches and others who are interested are encouraged to attend any meetings.

By Cathy Wilson It seems that I missed my routine fall cleanup. In November tempera- tures still peaked near 70. The shorter days should have caught my atten- tion giving me the warn- ing signs of the approach- ing winter. I did man- age to keep up with the bulk of falling leaves but this occurred much later because of the extended pleasant weather. So when I normally prune, I was raking instead. I had even taken the time to transfer some shrubs and ground covers. But some- how, I missed the golden opportunity for my nor- mal pruning. Now we have had storms from Alaska move down to Northern Cali- fornia along with freezes, rains and fog. Somehow it seems more desirable to stay close to the fire- place decorating for the approaching holidays than battle the abrasive weather. Usually I lightly prune throughout the year — mainly for maintenance. I remove unwanted growth to maintain the shape I want to achieve. I also re- move any dead or dis- eased portions. Whenever I work in the garden, my pruning shears are a con- stant companion. Basically, I prune de- ciduous trees and shrubs during their dormancy with one exception and that is if they pro- duce early spring flow- ers. If so, they need to be pruned only after bloom in the spring—not now. Their buds for the follow- ing year are formed on the old growth. Pruning them now would mean re- moving this spring's new flowers. Pruning woody peren- nials needs to be done now and this is where I am behind. Most of these, I prune to the ground or severely reduce their size. Perennials such as ge- raniums (sebaceous pe- rennials) with soft stems should not be pruned back as the upper growth will turn to mush but this protects the early emer- gence of spring growth during late frosts. This old growth needs to be cut back only when all danger of freezes is gone. Pruning my evergreens is done in the warmer weather. My evergreen trees only need occasional pruning which I leave un- til spring. My chamaecy- peris and culpressus trees can be lightly sheared or clipped to shape since I have them planted close to a walkway. These I will leave until spring. My pines, I only prune the "candles" about 1/3 of the new spring growth. My Alberta spruce will occasional produce two leaders which I cut back to one to keep its pyra- midal appearance and this is also done in the warmer weather. Other than that, I'm constantly removing spider webs from around the tree but that is not a problem dur- ing the winter. As I am finishing this article, another major wind and rain storm is finishing up. Looks like I will be pruning my woody perennials with the roses this year. There is a first time for everything.
