Care tips for Christmas house plants from ISU expert
Horticulturist Ben Vance of Iowa State University advises on keeping holiday houseplants alive. Poinsettias need bright light and 60s to low 70s temperatures with high humidity, avoid cold drafts and heat sources, and water adequately without soggy soil. Begonias tolerate cooler rooms, while Christmas pepper and Jerusalem cherry prefer cool, evenly moist soil. African violets thrive with careful winter transport and swift indoor placement after purchase.

Nixon plan outlines five year push for alternative car engines
The Health, Education and Welfare Department draft proposes steam engines, gas turbines, electric cars, and exotic energy methods as removable substitutes for the dirty noisy internal combustion engine. Aiming for mid 1970s to 1980s availability, the plan notes environmental and health benefits, coils warnings about parking garage exposure, and says industry lacks motive to develop new power sources.
