ByDannyMathews To celebrate Day Red Bluff Garden Club members Danny and Lin Mathews and Shirley Fimbres, along with PATH Sale House Su- pervisor Debbi Bowen, planted two cherry trees at the Sale House. Garden Club purchases trees locally; most recently at Goodins Rock Garden Nursery in Proberta. Lo- cally purchased trees are better suited for our ex- treme weather—both heat and cold. "After Cathy Goodin pro- vided a brief lesson in the finer arts of selecting cherry trees, we purchased a Bing and a Crimson," Mathews said. The Mathews offer the following growing advice, both varieties are mid-sea- son producers. Bing cher- ries, while originating in the Pacific Northwest and usually grown in Oregon and Washington, can han- dle the summer heat of our growing zone. Water Bings regularly, do not let the soil dry out. Crimson cherries are smaller trees, growing to only about 15 feet tall, and are not fussy once es- tablished, requiring water as soil dries. In general, cherry trees do not require pruning for fruit — just to maintain good structure and shape. They do require cross pol- lination — two or more trees of different variet- ies — like Bing and Crim- son. Both like light fertiliz- ing in spring and late sum- mer. Birds are a problem as fruit nears harvest — net- ting is required if you want unblemished fruit. Sunset recommends a copper spray in fall and then a fungicide spray when first blooms appear. Re- sume fungicide treatment 2 weeks before harvest to prevent fruit rot. Horticul- tural oil spray during the dormant period will con- trol various pests. Meanwhile back at Sale House; we had to postpone planting a few days beyond the March 7 California Ar- bor Day. Like so many days this winter, we were rained out. But upon our return, four days later the sun was shining with all His Glory! And as promised, Debbi Bowen had planting holes dug and ready for the new- est tenants to set up house — so to speak. Red Bluff Garden Club has highest hopes that the families residing at the Sale House will enjoy cherries for years to come. Red Bluff Garden Club celebrates Arbor Day each year by planting a tree or two. We have donated trees to schools; most recently Gerber School and Los Mo- linos; longer ago to the Te- hama Museum and Red Bluff River Park. Red Bluff Garden Club's next event is the annual Plant Sale, starting a 9 a.m. Friday and Saturday, May 5 and 6 at the Union Hall on Baker Road. Our next regu- lar meeting is May 30. Pre- pare your plants for the Fair Flower Show. Fair en- tries will be taken Wednes- day, July 12.

RED BLUFF GARDEN CLUB Ar bo r Da y tr ee p la nt in g at S al e Ho us e Patriotism is rife even with the hobo. The man without a home and oft time without kith or kin, and whose only possession is the right to travel back and forth over this big country of ours, sometimes has the spark of patriotism kindled that makes him a man again. This was amply illus- trated Wednesday when Company H entertained and pulled out of the city of Red Bluff, headed for the Presidio. Down near Oak street stood two ho- bos near the railroad track and as the train pulled past them, one of these ho- bos joined with the citi- zens lined along this street in giving the boys a part- ing cheer. After the train disap- peared down the track the other hobo turned on his partner and gave him fits for cheering this bunch of "scissor-bills," as he called them, and he also cussed President Wilson for calling them out. This fellow also wished that death would get every one of the boys before they went ten miles, and wished that someone would "get" the president. This so incensed the hobo who cheered the boys that he launched a vicious blow at the other fellow and before they were through he gave this unpatriotic bum a thrashing that he will always remember. After the fight was over Tom Birmingham, who was an eye witness to it, went over to the victor and praised him for the stand he took, and further gave the patriotic hobo a piece of money to help him on his way. Before he left, however, he told Birming- ham that the other man was an I.W.W. and had been cussing the soldiers and Wilson ever since he met him, but when he said what he did about Com- pany H he couldn't stand it any longer. There is no hyphen in this hobo. — April 6, 1917 100 YEARS AGO... Patriotic hobo defends soldiers against I.W.W.
