EARLY WORK IN BULB GARDEN
BY JULIE ADAMS POWELL.

With the first warm days the bulb
Gus plants spring up, and many be-
ginner has tried in vain to push them
back until warm weather.
AS rule it is best to let nature be
dictator Hardy bulbs will endure lots
of cold; and if they do sometimes get
helplessly nipped of flower buds by
undue haste, there is more frequently
damage done to the roots by trying
to curb the growth.
Do not be in hurry to remove the
leaves which should have been their
winter cOverlet. Loosen them up grad
ually, taking care that the plants are
not smothering. Ii the weather con-
tinues fine, work the loose leaves a
little more into the soil every day,
thus gradually making the change.
There is less drain upon the bulbs
if the blossoms are picked as soon as
they commence to wither.
Look to it that the bitches and
drains are in good order.
Some cut the tops from hyacinths as
soon as the leaves turn yellow, remove
them, and plant ANIMALS. This is a
very neat way of getting rid of the
bulbs-and most effectually, as a rule.
But if you wish hyacinths another
year, there is better way, unless you
can afford to purchase new bulbs.
Those discolored leaves are a neces-
sity to the plant while ripening the
bulbs, and if they cannot be tolerated
a permissible compromise is to trans
plant the bulbs to some out-of-the-way
corner of the yard, where they can
ripen in peace. They may then be
dried and packed away for autumn
planting.
1t is better to replant the hardy
bulbs at least once in two or three
years, else they become too thickly
matted. Besides the soil needs a re-
newal of fertilizer; and this can never
be so well done as when the bed is
empty.
There is often complaint that the
old-fashioned white narcissus poeti
Gus blasts in the bud. This is usually
remedied by resetting the bulbs which
have become matted together.
If you have a number of varieties
of tulips and more time and patience
than money to buy new varieties
there is often much pleasure in grow
ing tulips from seed. Some of the
soft shades of old-rose have been
in our own garden evolved from the
cross-fertilization of standard forms
There is pleasure, too, in watching
the unfolding of the unknown. New
varieties purchased of seedsmen are
always announced and their beauties
described; but these seedlings are
positively new, and some of them are
strikingly beautiful.
If in planting your tulips, carmine
and scarlet are in painful contrast
mark the one for removal at the prop
er season. Some flowers show only
harmony in varietal colors, but the
tulip cannot be classed among these

PLANT CATALPA TREES
BY BETTY PAKE.

An acre of ground will produce
three to four thousand fence posts
and such posts are now worth about
twenty-five cents each. Fifteen years
later they will probably bring twice
as much, as timber is becoming scare
er every year.
Catalpa trees grow into telephone
poles and fence posts in about fifteen
years.
One-year-old trees are the best to
plant. Be sure they are all healthy
ana come not too far from home. You
will have to pay about twelve dollars
per 1000 for good trees.
The ground should be plowed and
put in good condition, as for corn.
The rows ought to be about eight feet
apart and perfectly straight. Use a
corn marker to get them just right,
After they get good start cut them
back nearly TO the ground. Don't be
afraid to cut, as they will be all the
stronger for the pruning. On good
soil. where trees are not too much
crowded. they will grow from five to
seven feet the first year

TO GROW DAHLlAS

Plant them, If there is no danger
Of frost, outdoors about three feet
apart each way, not in too rich
ground; then when they commence to
grow get good stick, a broom-handle
is good, and tie them up with either
cotton cloth or raffia.
1t is best to raise them with single
stem; take half the branches off, so
the air and light will circulate well
around the plants, as they take time
to make large plants.
Place some sticks over them and
attack a piece of canvas sheet or
blanket to protect them from the first
frost. The plants thus protected last
four weeks longer. and it pays for the
labor, because you get the finest flow
ers and lots of them. The tuber gets
ripe better, too.
When the dahlias are killed by frost,
cut out the tops; do not dip them too
early; wait until the hard frost comes.
They can stand until November Is.
They also get more nourishment from
the ground. When you dig them be
careful not to bruise them. Let them
stay in the sun to dry, then put them
in their winter quarters; a cellar that
is frost-proof is a good place. Cover
them with sand, but if your cellar has
concrete floors or is too cold, they
will get mildew and die. Put some
boards on the bottom.
One should SOW some dahlia seed;
they grow much stronger than either
tubers or cuttings, and one is well
repaid. The seeds sown in early spring
will flower from the middle of July
until frost; those that do not suit can
be thrown away, and the best ones
can be kept over for another season.
If the season is a dry one some of
the plants in the garden will have to
be watered If you want flowers from
them. This is especially true of the
dahlia.
Use enough water to penetrate all
the soil in which their roots grow, and
see that it is kept moist.
watering today and neglecting for
week to come isn't the proper thing.
Save the suds from wash-day for this
purpose. The soap in the water will
benefit the plants.
Be sure to supply substantial sup.
port for your dahlias. If this is not
done you will be likely to find them
broken some morning after a sudden
wind or a hard rain-storm.
The stakes should be at least four
feet tall-allow an extra foot and q
half for insertion in the ground-and
they should be at least an inch through
and of good sound wood.
Paint them dull green and they
will not be unpleasantly obtrusive
Tie the stalks to them with broad

SWEET CLOVER FOR PASTURE
Some Farmers Regard Plant as Weed
and Practically Worthiess-lm-
proves Tilth Of Soil.

The value Of sweet clover as a pas
ture or hay crop is much disputed.
Some farmers regard it as practically
worthless and consider it a weed,
while others apparently have had good
success with feeding it. Its foliage has
bitter taste due to the cumarin it
contains and its stems have a tenden-
cy to become woody as they mature.
II not allowed to become too rank be-
fore pasturing, or If cut for hay before
the first bloom buds appear, these two
Objectionable features may be avoided
to q considerable extent and very good
feed obtained.
Since it is biennial, sweet clover
may take the place of red clover in the
rotation on those lands where the lat
ter does not thrive well, but on the
best lands it cannot compete with eth
er red clover or alfalfa for hay.
It is efficient as soil renovator, by
reason of the large amount of nitro
gen it is able to take from the air as
well as the humus added to the soil
when it is turned under or from the
decay of roots when the crop is har.
vested.
