Pictures are not easy to take and for
that reason success brings more
than ordinary satisfaction to the
amateur photographer.
Proper lighting, a large image and
patient work with the camera are
the essentials of flower photography,

to focus close to the flower, and hav-
ing a ground glass focusing screen

But, if you haven't such a camera,
good work may be done with ordi-
nary folding or box cameras, pro -
aided a portrait attachment is used
to obtain a large image. This supple-
mentary lens, which comes with a
table of focusing distances, makes
it possible to work within arm's
length of the subject, Always use a
tape measure to determine exactly
the specified distance between lens
and flower. Panchromatic film gives
the best rendering of the tono con-
trasts among •the 'colors.
Flower pictures need to be vividly
sharp; benco, a small lens opening
should usually be used—L16 or 1.22
—or the smallest stop on box cam-
eras, and the camera should be on a
tripod or held securely with a cam-
era clamp. The exposure should be
from 2 10 one second.
Wind Is a problem, of coarse, At
such close distances movement of
the subject makes more difference.
It is worth while to wait for a ntt•
molt when the blossom is m"ton-
less. 1£ you find the wind too blowy,
devise a wind -breaker of some/ sort.
Hazy days, or when the sun is
shining under light clouds, makes
the ideal time for flower pictures. Di

The Ross Federal Research Corpora-
tion, nationally known fact-finding or-
ganizetton, asked 1214 motorists in 14
widely separated cities in U.S. to
contribute their services in testing a
"mystery gasoline" in their own oars.
First—the tank of each car was drained
of the gasoline it had been using.
The tanks of these cars were then
filled with this "mystery gasoline."
This unknown motor fuel was Blue
Sunoco, with the color left out. E W.
Saybolt & Company, independent pe.
troleum testing authorities, checked
this "mystery gasoline" and certified
that it was regular Blue Sunoco.
After these motorists had sufficient
time to compare the performance of
this uncolored Blue Sunoco in their
own care against the gasoline they
had used previously, Ross Federal in-
vestigators called upon them and ob.
tained their frank, honest opinions of
the unknown motor fuel,
