Workers took pay cuts at the bankrupt carriers as well as American Airlines, which narrowly avoided bankruptcy in 2003. In recent years, price com- petition from discounters held fares relatively low even as jet fuel prices rose and older air- lines lost money because of heavy debt and the expenses of an older work force, such as pensions and retiree health care. But bankruptcy helped them shed or reduce those costs. And full planes mean airlines are closer to some- thing they covet — “pricing power,” or the ability to raise prices to cover their expenses. Older airlines like Northwest are “going to have a little more pricing power than there was in the past,” said aviation consultant Mike Boyd, president of The Boyd Group in Evergreen, Colo. Not all the airlines have changed in the same way. Northwest will soon go from having one of the oldest fleets in the business to one of the newest as it adds new 76-seat regional jets and, next year, UKIAH: 1080 N.

Tickets are on sale at Leaves of Grass Bookstore, Sanhedrin Nursery, and the Hospice office in Willits, Weathertop Nursery in Laytonville, and the Mendocino Book Co. in Ukiah. They will also be available the day of the tour at the plaza behind These fountains grace Ardella’s.

Traveling a bit over to Talmage you can treat yourself to Evan’s Heaven, a 17-year labor of love cer- tainly worth the travel time. You will be rewarded with an Asian fare of fresh sushi and wontons. If you would prefer the walking tour in Willits, I would urge you to see the wonderful Bradford garden, truly an educational eye-opener about self-sustainability. Another infor- mational garden is the tiny Medicine Chest, featuring medicinal plants and herbs. The Rohlicek garden includes not only flow- ers and large vegetable garden but the serenity only a lovely lily-padded pond can offer, as well as, Broaddus Creek visible through the trees. The Matheny and Woultee gardens could round out the day with their well-established gardens filled with mature trees, shrubs, and plants. Such wonderful decisions to make this an unforgettable day. If your chosen route includes the hilltop Bruce residence, please remember timing is of the essence. Between the hours of 10 a.m. and noon author Amy Stewart will be there autograph- ing copies of her latest book, “Flower Confidential (the Good, the Bad and the Beautiful in the Business of Flowers). Amy has graciously agreed to discuss and sell signed copies of her book with proceeds going to Phoenix Certified Hospice. Amy’s arti- cles appear regularly in Organic Gardening and the San Francisco Chronicle. Visit www.amystewart.com for more information. Have you noticed those gorgeous sunflower posters that miraculously showed up around town? They were printed at no charge by Blueprints & Copies of Ukiah, and thanks to the gen- erosity of the framing masters at Firefly Studio in Willits, one of them will be raffled off the day of the tour. It will be on dis- play at the Woultee garden. Imagine having a garden tour sou- venir to grace the walls in your kitchen. At each and every stop of the day, you will be greeted by a red-aproned volunteer host or hostess, ready to answer any questions you might have about the garden or its owner. Refreshments will be provided at every garden too. Grab a plate, a chair, a bench, a patch of grass....relax and enjoy the music. Live performances will provide all-day entertainment. So regardless of the number of gardens you manage to fit in, remember this: The gardeners have worked tirelessly for months, hoping you will see what they see and share in the joy they experience in their garden. Your attendance this one spe- cial day will make all their hard work worthwhile. Remember too -- You have contributed to a very worthwhile cause because all proceeds benefit Hospice patient care, a ser- vice communities desperately need. What better way to show you care?

THE LEARNING CHALLENGER by Robert Barnett

DIRECTIONS: A. Using each "Chaos Grid" number with its letter one time, arrange the numbers with their letters for the "Order Grid" so each vertical column, horizontal row, and two diagonals each ADD to numbers inside thick lined cells. B. Some correct numbers with their letters have been put into the "Order Grid" to get you started. Also, above the "Order Grid" is a "Decoded Message" clue. C. After you have solved the "Order Grid" doing as direction "A" says, put the let- ters from horizontal rows, from left to right, under "Decoded Message" and make words to form the answer.
