SUFFRAGIST RE-ENACTMENTS AVAILABLESARATOGA COUNTY – Schools and youth organizations in Saratoga County are invited to schedule a visit from one of the founding suff ragists, thanks to a grant that the League of Women Voters of Saratoga County received from the lo-cal chapter of Soroptimist International. Between March and June of this year, Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Sojourner Truth re-enactors will be available to present their life stories for 30 minutes followed by Q&A. Geared to the high school level, the free presentations are appropriate for a class, grade level or school. According to Patricia Nu-gent, LWVSC grant coordinator and author of the suff ragist play, The Stone that Started the Ripple, “This year is the 95th anniversary of women’s suff rage. The founding suff ragists dedicated their lives to women’s equality, recognizing that the right to vote was critical to this eff ort. Yet, these coura-geous women are typically not featured in history books, and students may not be aware of what they risked or how hard they fought for future generations. This grant is designed to bring their stories to life.” A limited number of slots are avail-able at no cost. Interested schools and youth organizations are asked to contact [email protected] or 371-8032 to participate in this living history project.

Ask About Our Lowest Prices of the Year!
Last week I wrote of the wondrous works of George Washington Carver. Equally amazing is the life of another horticultural genius, Luther Burbank. Burbank introduced over 1,000 plant varieties that had never been seen before. His achievements were so astounding that he was initially considered a fake by the established scientifi c community. Time would prove them quite wrong in their initial assessment.
Let’s start at the beginning. Luther Burbank was born in rural Massachusetts in 1849. In 1871, he used an inheritance from his father’s estate to buy a 17 acre farm in Lunenberg, Massachusetts where he took up vegetable farming for a living. An avid reader and forward thinker, Burbank was fully convinced by the writings of Charles Darwin and his theories on evolution. When one of the potato plants in his garden produced a seed ball (rare for potatoes), Burbank was astute enough to realize that it would contain seeds that would NOT breed true to the type of potato that had produced them. He let the seed ball ripen and found that it had produced 23 seeds. He grew the seeds hoping that he might come up with a new variety. As things turned out, one of the seeds produced a white skinned potato that was much larger than its red skinned parent. Burbank sold the potatoes he’d produced to a seedman from Marblehead for $150.
The seedman was thrilled and went on to make a considerable amount of money from the “Burbank Po-tato” which was far and away the best variety ever produced.
With his newfound funds and tempted by tales in letters from his two brothers in California, Luther sold the farm and took ten of his new potatoes and set out across the continent. Burbank’s new potato variety not only provided him the funds he needed to travel and a bit of a name in the agricultural com-munity, but gave him a great deal of confi dence that there were many new discoveries to be made.
Burbank arrived in Santa Rosa and shortly after read Darwin’s recently published “The Effects of Cross and Self Fertilisation in the Vegetable Kingdom” which further inspired him to the possibilities of plant breeding that lay before him. At this time in California, there was a lot of interest in producing dried fruit for shipment back east. While California could grow huge amounts of produce, refrigerated transportation hadn’t been invented yet so farmers there concentrated on crops that could be dried before shipping. A banker in Santa Rosa wanted to get in on the boom and offered $6,000 to anyone who could provide 20,000 prune trees in 9 months; a feat considered impossible by local nurserymen. Burbank devised a plan to graft plum buds onto faster growing almond seedlings. The idea was a success and Burbank stunned locals and earned the $6,000; a tidy sum in 1882. With this money, Burbank purchased some land and a cottage and began plant breeding in earnest.
Ten years later, Burbank had enough new stock to offer plants for sale in a mail order catalog. When his catalog came into the hands of eastern and European nurserymen and botanists, it created quite a stir. Burbank’s catalog offered over 100 plant varieties from fruit trees to fl owers that had never been seen before…all produced by a single man! Burbank offered a walnut tree that grew as fast as a softwood, an apple that was sweet on one side but sour on the other, a new giant form of daisy (Shasta), and even a cross between a strawberry and raspberry. The offerings were so outlandish that most believed the catalog to be a hoax.
A Dutch botanist, Hugo De Vries, was so intrigued that he immediately set sail for America and traveled all the way to Santa Rosa to see for himself. Even before De Vries reached the front door of Burbank’s cottage, he knew that there was something special going on. In the front yard was one of the amazing walnut trees Burbank had developed. De Vries had expected a much larger facility with a great deal of scientifi c research going on. Instead, he found Burbank in his cottage with sparse notes scribbled on bits of paper scattered about. Because of Burbank’s unscientifi c methods, he had a hard time getting the scientifi c community to take him seriously (all but those who actually visited Santa Rosa).
What amazed all that did visit was Burbank’s uncanny ability to recognize individual plants from among thousands that would eventually suit his goals. One county agricultural agent commented, “ He’d go along a row of gladioli, yanking out the ones he didn’t want as fast as he could pull them up. He seemed to have an instinct that told him if a tiny plant would grow up to bear the kind of fruit he wanted. I couldn’t see any difference in them, even if I stooped and looked closely, but Burbank did no more than glance at them.”
Gradually, the world embraced Burbank for the genius he was. Like George Washington Carver, Burbank seemed to have a special communication with plants and admitted that he talked to them to offer encouragement and his love and admiration. He admits that they probably couldn’t understand his words but believed that they could sense his feelings and desires for them. This seems as outlandish now as it did then. Helen Keller, after visiting Burbank wrote, “He has the rarest of gifts, the receptive spirit of a child. Only a wise child can understand the language of fl owers and trees.”
Burbank expressed his philosophy this way, “Preconceived notions, dogmas and all other personal prejudice and bias must be laid aside. Listen patiently, quietly and reverently to the lessons, one by one, which Mother Nature has to teach, shedding light on that which was before a mystery, so that all who will, may see and know. She conveys her truths only to those who are passive and receptive. Accepting these truths as suggested, wherever they may lead, then we have the whole universe in harmony with us.”
George Washington Carver and Luther Burbank were strange and amazing men whose philosophies could be easily dismissed as pure hokum were it not for the fact that they each achieved amazing results that advanced agriculture decades in a few short years. Please read more about these amazing men on your own. You may fi nd yourself sitting quietly in your garden listening to the wisdom of a fl ower. Thanks for the read.

The DVD features students from fi rst through sixth grade, some of who talk about their experiences with stuttering.

Other libraries that will shelve it can contact the Foundation at 1-800-992-9392, e-mail [email protected], or visit www.stutteringhelp.org or www.tartarmudez.org.

Precision-Tax Income Tax Services in Burnt Hills is here to serve all of your income tax related needs. Our goal is to provide you with up to date, expert tax advice and service at a fair and reasonable price. We are not a franchise. We’re a locally owned and operated, family business. There’s no big tax franchise atmosphere here. We take a personal interest in each and everyone of our clients as families and individuals. Just stop in anytime for a cup of coffee and you’ll see, whether you’re already a client or not.Owned and operated by David & Julia Ruzzo. Our roots are sunk deep in the Capital Region. David was born and raised in Schenectady and at-tended Mont Pleasant High School where he played football and baseball and later, Hudson Valley Community College. Having done accounting work for large companies as well as for his own corporation for over 25 years, David has focused exclusively on Income Tax Accounting for the past 14 years. Passing the IRS RTRP Exam he spent 12 years working as a Senior Tax Specialist for the largest independent Tax Accounting fi rm in the Capital Region. Starting his own tax practice was the next logical career move. David enjoys using the IRS tax laws to help you save money in every legal way possible. That is why he is constantly studying the tax code and takes more than 20 hours of IRS approved continuing education each year, more than what’s required. This also qualifi es him to participate in the IRS Annual Filing Season Program (AFSP) for IRS recognized tax preparers. He is also an Authorized IRS e-fi le provider. The bottom line is that we sincerely care about our clients and their needs. We take real pride in our work and want our clients to return year after year.One thing our relaxed, family atmosphere doesn’t mean however, is that we take a relaxed view of privacy and security. Being a family operated small business, we under-stand the importance of keeping your personal information confi dential. After all, who wants to share their sensitive personal and fi nancial information with a company that has many employees who have access to it at the click of a button? Especially in this day and age of cyber thieves and electronic tax-fraud. That’s why we treat privacy and security as a top priority. We follow and even exceed all IRS requirements to keep electronic and physical information absolutely protected and secure. We will NEVER share your information with anyone without you specifi cally instructing us to do so.Beyond Tax Accounting, David & Julia and enjoy traveling their two daughters. Julia grew up in the sunny Caribbean and David just loves to take her home for visits! Being the grandson of Italian immigrants, David also enjoys growing grapes in his own home vineyard, making wine, enjoying Italian food and speaking Italian any chance he gets.Tax season 2015 is upon us and if the early indicators from the IRS are accurate, it will be a challenging season for all of us due to tax -law changes such as the Affordable Health Care Act (ACA), and IRS budget cuts. A good tax expert can make tax-time easier, help you fi nd lots of deductions and prevent you from getting into trouble. We would love to help you save money by preparing your Individual or business tax return. Stop in or call today for an appointment.

6 Week Creative Movement Samplerfor 31/2, 4 & 5 year olds

Come mid-February, fl orist delivery trucks can be seen making the rounds through neighborhoods all across the country. Such trucks are transporting thousands of bouquets, plants and other fl oral arrangements that serve as gifts on Valentine’s Day.
According to the Retail Ad-vertising and Marketing Association, fl orists take in around $400 million in revenue on Valentine’s Day. Roses may be the most popular fl ower come Valen-tine’s Day, but many other blooms fi nd their way into the hearts of excited cel-ebrants as well.
Flowers can be used to con-vey love, friendship, com-passion, and desire. In Vic-torian times, fl owers were given specifi c meanings because only a few exotic fl owers were readily avail-able, and many of these meanings have withstood the test of time. Giving a type of fl ower that signifi es you just want to be friends may not bode well for a re-lationship when the recipi-ent was hoping for more. As a result, it pays to under-stand the subtle meaning of fl owers to make gift-giv-ing easier.
The Society of American Florists has compiled the following list of fl ower meanings from various sources. But in spite of these meanings, keep in mind you can always work with a fl orist to design a personal arrangement that speaks directly to that spe-cial someone this Valen-tine’s Day.
Amaryllis: drama
Anemone: fragility
Apple Blossom: promise
Aster: contentment
Azalea: abundance
Bachelor Button: anticipation
Begonia: deep thinking
Camellia: graciousness
Carnation:
pink: gratitude
red: fl ashy
striped: refusal
white: remembrance
yellow: cheerful
Cosmos: peaceful
Daff odil: chivalry
Daisy: innocence
Gardenia: joy
Geranium: comfort
Gladiolus: strength in char-acter
Heather: solitude
Hyacinth: sincerity
Hydrangea: perseverance
Iris: inspiration
Jasmine: grace and ele-gance
Lilac: fi rst love
Magnolia: dignity
Marigold: desire for riches
Orange Blossom: fertility
Orchid: delicate beauty
Pansy: loving thoughts
Passion fl ower: passion
Ranunculus: radiant
Rose:
pink: admiration/appre-ciation
red: passionate love
red and white: unity
white: purity
yellow: friendship
Sunfl ower: adoration
Sweetpea: shyness
Wisteria: steadfast
Zinnia: thoughts of friends
EXPLORE FLOWER MEANINGS FOR VALENTINE GIVING
Couples who already have hearts in their eyes and are enam-ored with all things Valentine’s Day may want to tie the knot on this special holiday, and few can argue when a couple decides to become husband and wife on this day devoted to love and aff ection.
Valentine’s Day is a popular day to tie the knot, as more than two million people choose February 14 to walk down the aisle in the United States alone.
Valentine’s Day is an easy day to remember, meaning it will be hard for husbands and wives to forget their wedding an-niversaries.
Another benefi t to getting married on Valentine’s Day is the ambiance may already be taken care of by various establish-ments in the community. Reception halls may be embel-lished with fl owers, balloons and other décor, while busi-nesses may already be displaying hearts in their windows and twinkling pink, red and white lights for Valentine’s-fo-cused customers.
Couples who may not know which colors to choose for their wedding parties and table linens can just go with the col-ors and themes of Valentine’s Day if they decide to tie the knot on February 14. Chocolate brown, red, lavender, and pink are primary hues for the season, and any combination will complement the festivities and ceremony — whether they’re the color of the napkins or making up the bouquet.
Valentine’s Day treats and trinkets make for great wedding favors. Guests can take home individual boxes of chocolates or crystal candle votives, while buff et dessert tables can be embellished with vases fi lled with chocolate kisses or can-died hearts.
Couples looking for a special day to tie the knot need not look any further than Valentine’s Day, a day devoted to cou-ples and the aff ection they share for each other.

FINDING YOUR ANCESTORS IN
IMMIGRATION AND NATURALIZATION
RECORDSSCHENECTADY COUNTY – Presented by Keren Weiner on Sat., February 7, 2pm at Schenectady County His-torical Society, 32 Washing-ton Ave., Schenectady, NY 12305. Admission: $5.00; Free for Schenectady County Historical Society Members. Travel back in time and learn how to find illuminating documents that chronicle your ancestors’ migration to the United States. For every-one who made the voyage “across the pond,” there is an individual story – a personal journey, a family history. To find our own family his-tory, we look for the paper trail – the immigration and naturalization documents that tell us more about what we want to know. Where did we come from and how did we get here? Keren Weiner uses individual examples to illustrate how to find immi-gration and naturalization documents and explains what you might expect to learn from them. Goose-bumps guaranteed. Weiner conducts genealogy re-search for individuals seek-ing to learn more about their family origins. In addition, she has assisted authors and a filmmaker in researching family history for non-fiction and documentary projects. She lectures on various ge-nealogy topics, acquiring the nickname “The Goose-bump Genealogist” along the way. Following Weiner’s presentation, Melissa Tacke, Librarian/Archivist at the Schenectady County Histori-cal Society, will give a short presentation, “Researching Your Immigrant Ancestors: Resources in the Grems-Doolittle Library.” This pro-gram is part of the Exploring Schenectady County’s Immi-grant Past project, support-ed by grants from the New York Council for the Humani-ties and the Schenectady County Initiative Program.

(NAPS)—When it comes to pinpointing potentially seri-ous issues with your vehicle, your nose may know more than you realize. For exam-ple, the smell of burnt toast might be a sign of an electri-cal short. The smell of rotten eggs may signal trouble with the emissions system, which includes the catalytic con-verter.
These and other tips are included in “Knowledge Is Power,” a booklet that’s part of a car-care and mainte-nance clinic developed by ACDelco. It gives vehicle owners easy-to-understand information about their vehicles so they can be in-formed and make the right choices when they visit an independent auto service center.
Here are some things you may not know about your vehicle:
• Reddish stains on the drive-way can be a sign of a trans-mission oil leak.
• If your technician asks if your vehicle’s brakes are “grabbing,” he wants to know if the brakes engage suddenly when you apply steady pressure to the brake pedal.
• You should pull over imme-diately if your temperature light reads in the hot zone. That probably means your vehicle’s coolant is too hot to cool your engine.
A LITTLE KNOWLEDGE CAN MAKE A BIG
DIFFERENCE
• Many brake pads have wear indicators. If your vehicle has them, they will emit loud squeals when they detect wear.
• It’s a good idea to write down your vehicle’s symp-toms before visiting a repair shop, including noises—and whether these occur when the engine is hot or cold.
• Air bags work with your safety belts, not as a replace-ment for them.
• Children under 13 should ride properly secured in the rear seat.
• Always keep at least a half tank of gas in your vehicle to avoid potential damage to
your fuel fi lter or fuel line.
• Check your tire pressure frequently for safety and fuel economy. Hot and cold out-side temperatures aff ect the pressure in your tires.
• Avoid oil and fuel additives unless recommended by your ser-vice consultant.
• Don’t use dish detergent to wash your car; it can hurt clearcoat fi nishes.
The “Knowledge Is Power” booklet is part of a presenta-tion kit available to shops at no charge. Consumers can download the free booklet at www. acdelco.com/pdf/Car-Maintenance-Car-Care-Knowledge-Is-Power-ACDel-
co.pdf.
For more than 100 years, ACDelco has been supply-ing parts, technical training and business expertise to independent auto ser-vice centers. To fi nd out if a ser-vice center in your neighbor-hood is sponsoring a Knowl-edge Is Power clinic, visit ACDelco.com and click on “Find a Service Center.”
