TIDBITS® LOOKS FOR

WILDFLOWERSby Patricia L. Cook

Experts estimate that there are over 20,000 species of flowering plants in North America, belonging to about 300 different families. Wildflowers are the ones that grow in the wild, without cultivation. • There are “native” wildflowers that are

indigenous to the continent and “naturalized” wildflowers that have been introduced from some other part of the world. Native and naturalized wildflowers share a common distinction: They are able to grow on their own in nature.

• Wildflowers grow in cold and hot areas as well as in wet and dry places. Deserts may appear so dry that nothing will grow, but there will still be wildflowers when the conditions are right. Conversely, marshes and swamps appear so wet that flowers can not survive, but they can have wildflowers as well. Many people have attempted to cultivate wildflower gardens. Some wildflowers are agreeable to this, and others refuse cultivation.

• Wildflowers are varied in looks, growth forms and usefulness. Some are considered grand in appearance and wanted in home and park gardens, while others are a bane to our lawns and roadsides. Some are unusual with “personalities” that will amaze you.

TIDBITS GETS FIRED UP ABOUT

NATIONAL BOSS DAYby Stanley Drummond

Bosses are people, too. (Really!) And every year on October 16, America pays tribute to them.• Actually, National Boss Day was created in

1958 by an Illinois secretary named Patricia Haroski. She chose October 16 because it was her father’s birthday. Her father also happened to be her boss at the time. Nevertheless, she felt that bosses in general were underappreciated, and registered the date with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce as an official observance.

• Interestingly enough, a 2005 survey done by an international human resources consulting firm revealed that the majority of employees would not trade places with their boss. The primary reason given was the change that would result between them and their co-workers. They could no longer ignore or laugh at any slackers in their department; they’d be responsible for any poor performers.

• Hallmark started selling Boss Day cards in 1979. While they don’t reveal actual sales figures, they do disclose that the “holiday” is poised to break into the list of top 10 card-send-ing events within the next few years.

• On March 24, 1765, Parliament passes the Quartering Act, which required the colonies to house British soldiers in barracks provided by the colonies, local inns, livery stables, ale houses, uninhabited houses, outhouses or barns. Forcing colonists from their own homes was not the intent of the law.

• On March 21, 1871, journalist Henry Morton Stanley begins his famous search through Africa for missing British explorer Dr. David

Livingstone. When Stanley found him on Oct. 27, he stepped forward and stretched out his hand: "Dr. Livingstone, I presume?"

• On March 25, 1911, flames engulf the Triangle Shirtwaist Company factory in New York City, killing 145 workers. Only one elevator was operational in the 10-story building. There were two stairways down to the street, but one was locked from the outside. The inside fire hose was rotted and its valve was rusted shut.

• On March 26, 1941, Italy attacks the British fleet at Suda Bay, Crete, using manned torpedoes to sink a British cruiser. Known as the "Chariot," the manned torpedo was ridden by "pilots" to "drive" them to their targets in the harbor.

• On March 23, 1962, Pakistan's governor, Ayub Khan, gives first lady Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy a horse she nicknames "Black Jack." Jackie chose "Black Jack" to serve as the ceremonial riderless

horse during Pres. Kennedy's funeral.

• On March 27, 1973, the actor Marlon Brando declines the Academy Award for Best Actor for his performance in "The Godfather" as a protest against Hollywood's portrayal of Native Americans in film. The first performer to turn down a Best Actor Oscar was George C. Scott, who declined to accept his award for "Patton" in 1971.

• On March 22, 1983, the Pentagon awards a production contract worth more than $1 billion to AM General Corporation to develop 55,000 High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicles (HMMWV). Nicknamed the Humvee, the rugged vehicle was designed to transport troops and cargo. In 1992, a civilian version of the Humvee, known as the Hummer, went on sale.

WILDFLOWERS (continued):• Skunk cabbage is a swamp-loving plant that is

well named. It blooms in February and March in swampy areas and produces an odd-looking flower before producing any leaves. The flowers resemble pins in a pincushion. When the plant is bruised, it smells awful.

• Native Americans used the orange sap of the bloodroot plant to color or paint their faces for warfare or ceremonies and to dye baskets. The flowers on a bloodroot plant are so delicate that it cannot be picked successfully. The petals fall off with the slightest touch or breeze. The sap comes from the stem.

• Mistletoe is a plant we traditionally associate with Christmas. Unlike most wildflowers that are rooted in soil, this plant is termed a “semi-parasite” because it draws water and minerals from a host plant. It typically grows on hardwood trees in the southern United States producing small white berries coated with a sticky substance that is toxic to humans.

• Dodder or Love Vine is unusual because it is a true parasite. Unlike semi-parasitic mistletoe, which produces green leaves, dodder vines are gold in color. Shortly after dodder seeds sprout, root-like structures attach themselves to a host plant, and the dodder plant draws all of its nourishment from the host plant. Common Dutch clover is a host plant for several dodder species.

• The Southern or evergreen magnolia is emblematic of the Southern states in America. The flower is the State Flower for Louisiana and Mississippi. What some readers may not know is the large size of this flower. Flowers range from 7 to 10 inches across — That’s the size of a dinner plate! Also interesting is that magnolia flowers are pollinated by beetles. 1st Quarter 2011

WILDFLOWERS (continued):• Wildflower festivals are popular in many

different areas. The 25th Annual Mountain Flower Fine Art & Wine Festival in Dahlonega, Georgia, is held the third weekend in May. The Dahlonega Master Gardeners present wildflower displays, walks and tours.

• The Mount Pisgah Arboretum in Oregon also has a Wildflower Festival in May. Always the Sunday after Mother’s Day, this year’s event will be May 15, 2011. Guided hikes are available, and 300 to 400 species of wildflowers are displayed.

• The Waterton Wildflower Festival is a nine-day event in June at Waterton Lakes National Park in Alberta, Canada, across the border from Glacier National Park. Waterton is an International Peace Park and World Heritage Site. Due to the conjunction of prairie and mountain ecosystems, the park has a truly unique variety of wildflowers. It is home to more than 50 of Canada’s rarest flowers including 30 species that aren’t found anywhere else in the world. In fact, Waterton has more flowers than any other mountain park. The festival has educational courses, art exhibits, workshops, hikes and even horseback rides.

• Crested Butte, the official wildflower capital of Colorado, began hosting a wildflower festival in 1986. Now the week-long celebration has over 200 classes, including art and cooking classes with wildflowers. The 2011 event is set for July 11-17.

• The Wildflower! Arts & Music Festival is a multi-day arts and music festival celebrating its 19th anniversary this year. Held north of Dallas in Richardson, Texas, it got its name from the wildflowers planted throughout the parks, medians and roadsides of Richardson.

This word means: Originating and living or occurring naturally in an area or environment


Planting wildflowers along roadways, in parks and in our yards can add more than just beauty to the landscape. They help with water conservation, reduce the cost of mowing, provide habitat for butterflies, birds and other wildlife, protect the soil and save money on pesticides and fertilizers. Make the most of natural landscaping and as Lady Bird Johnson said, these plants will “give us a sense of where we are in this great land of ours.”

The movie, Wildflower, directed by Diane Keaton and starring Patricia Arquette, William McNamara, Reese Witherspoon and Beau Bridges, is a heartwarming story about rescuing and accepting people with disabilities. First on television in December 1991, it is based in the 1930s and about a partially deaf, epileptic young girl who was abused by her father and forced to live in a barn. Two teenagers discover her and help her to become accepted by society. It was released on DVD in 2003.

A duck, a frog and a skunk wanted to go to dollar night at the local drive-in theater to see the movie, “Wildflower.” Which of the three couldn’t afford to go? The skunk. The duck had a bill; the frog had a greenback; but all the skunk had was a scent!

Not all 50 states of the United States have designated state wildflowers; however, all 50 states do have designated state flowers. A lot of the state flowers such as Indian paintbrush, magnolia, dogwood, columbine and goldenrod are actually wildflowers and could be designated as such.

By Samantha Weaver

• It was 20th-century German-American poet, novelist and short-story writer Charles Bukowski who made the following observation: "The difference between a democracy and a dictatorship is that in a democracy you vote first and take orders later; in a dictatorship you don't have to waste your time voting." • In the 18 months that the Pony Express operated, carrying mail across the Wild West and its myriad hazards and dangers, only one pouch of mail was lost. • It takes approximately 10 months for a Las Vegas slot machine to pay for itself.

• Benito Mussolini, Italian dictator and leader of that country's National Fascist Party, grew up poor with a blacksmith father who, history indicates, spent most of his meager earnings on his mistress. When Benito was 27 years old, he met a 16-year-old girl named Rachele Guidi -- who was the daughter of that same mistress and her deceased husband. Rachele eventually became Mussolini's second wife.

• At one time, some churches banned the playing of Wagner's "The Bridal Chorus," also known as "Here Comes the Bride," because the music was considered to be sexy and vulgar. • You might not be surprised to learn that editor, lexicographer and textbook pioneer Noah Webster lobbied Congress to make his plan for simplified spelling the law of the land. Had he been successful, the United States would have been the only country in which incorrect spelling would be legally punishable. • Many people claim that Worcestershire sauce does an excellent job of cleaning copper and brass. • In Chicago, if you have a hatpin hidden under a lapel, you are considered to be carrying a concealed weapon***Thought for the Day: "Of all the preposterous assumptions of humanity over humanity, nothing exceeds most of the criticisms made

Cat IntimidatesOwner’s Grandson

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: You recently ad-vised an owner whose cat ran and hid when company arrived not to worry unless it act-ed “very strange, such as hissing at familiar people, hiding for hours or not eating.” Well, our 6-year-old cat, “Clyde,” hides often when strangers arrive, sometimes for hours. But the weirdest thing is that he hisses and glares at our 3-year-old grandson, and he has done this since Day One. Our grandson is showing signs of being afraid of him and tries to stay as far away as possible. Can anything be done to help this relationship? Our grandson has a cat of his own that he gets along great with. Do you think Clyde was abused as a young kitten? We adopted him from a shelter. -- Su-san J., via e-mail

DEAR SUSAN: It’s difficult to tell what a pet’s past life was like when adopting from a shel-ter. Clyde may or may not have been abused as a young kitten, or he simply may not have been around humans much at all, which also can cause socialization problems.My late great buddy Dodge was born to a barn cat and adopted at about 6 months of age. He was extremely skittish around humans, and it was several months before I could even

pet him. While he eventually became a near-typical housecat, he remained very selective about who could approach him, and he always hid when new humans showed up. Sudden changes in his environment tended to be very stressful for Dodge, along with unpredictable people (and 3-year-olds can be quite unpre-dictable!).My advice is to keep Clyde and your grandson separated for now, until your grandson has grown a bit. There’s a chance they will never be friends, but it’s something that you can’t force on Clyde or your grandson. Meantime, continue to provide a supportive, encourag-ing environment for your cat.

Recalls: Food, Drugs and Your Vehicle

The Food and Drug Administration recently issued the following food recalls: breakfast burritos, sandwich wraps and sandwich spreads for undeclared allergens. Frozen fish that was not cleaned prior to freezing, leading to potential botulism. Wheat and soy in tortilla chips. Peanuts in strawberry banana smoothies. Salmon for presence of listeria. Cheese spread for undeclared soy and fish.Prescriptions didn't fare any better: Contaminated alcohol wipes. Certain Warfarin (blood thinner) products for mislabeling. (The label said 3 mg but the contents were 10 mg tablets.) Hydrocodone tablets for mislabeling.When it comes to your family's safety, the more information

you have, the better. On the FDA site [www.fda.gov] you can search for recalls by category -- food, drugs, medical devices, vaccines, animal and veterinary, cosmetics and more. Better yet, if you want to sign up for email alerts, go to

www.fsis.usda.gov, the Food Safety and Inspection Site.The U.S. Department of Agriculture also issues recalls. Go to www.usda.gov and search for recalls. The USDA recalls concern mostly meats, such as beef with E. coli or chicken with salmonella, but others types of food also make it onto its list. Be sure to check there as well.Food, prescription drugs and medical supplies aren't the only things that get recalled. Your vehicle also is a potential safety problem. There are two ways to keep up with possible issues with your vehicle: Technical Service Bulletins and full recalls.Technical Service Bulletins involve vehicle problems where there is no reported death from mechanical failures, but where there has been a pattern of consumer complaints. The difficulty is when you don't

hear about them because your car is out of warranty. If you have a good relationship with your dealer, it's possible to get them to make the repairs for free.Recalls are more widespread, get more press and concern issues that can cause death. With recalls, the dealer is required to make the repairs for free, even if the car is out of warranty.To keep up with both Technical Service Bulletins and recalls on your vehicle, keep track of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website or at www.nhtsa.gov. You also can use their alternate site: www.safercar.gov.Recalls.gov is an additional one-stop site for recalls of many kinds: vehicles, boats, food, medicine and more.Suggestion: Get a throwaway email address and sign up for recall alerts. David Uffington regrets that he cannot personally answer reader questions, but will incorporate them into his column whenever possible. Write to him in care of King Features Weekly Service, P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475, or send e-mail to [email protected].(c) 2011 King Features Synd.,

WILDFLOWERS (continued):• Do you know which United States’ First Lady

is considered the “Environmental First Lady”? Claudia Alta Taylor Johnson, otherwise known as Lady Bird, was the wife of the 36th President, Lyndon Johnson. (The nickname was supposedly given to her by a nursemaid when she was a child who said she was “as purty as a lady bird.”)

• While she was First Lady, Mrs. Johnson created the First Lady’s Committee for a More Beautiful Capital. She wanted to create natural landscaping to preserve the beauty of the nation’s capital. Later she expanded the program to include the entire nation.

• In 1982, Lady Bird Johnson and actress Helen Hayes founded the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center, originally called the National Wildflower Research Center, “to introduce people to the beauty and diversity of wildflowers and other native plants.”

•The center in Austin, Texas, has public gardens, woodlands and meadows and is an internationally influential research center. In 2006, the center became an Organized Research Unit of the University of Texas at Austin.

• Wildflower research has far-reaching implications. One wildflower that has made a huge difference in many lives worldwide is Wild Foxglove, botanically known as Digitalis purpurea. The medicine derived from this plant is widely used today to treat heart disease. As Lady Bird has said, “Surely there are others like digitalis waiting out there.”

• So, whether you’re canoeing down a stream, hiking in the woods, or observing the median on a road trip, notice the wildflowers. Realize their value to society comes from more than their natural beauty.
