LANDSCAPE GARDENING
For the Small Home
BY ROSE CREELY, Landscape Architect.

Z The true gardener may be selected
from the ranks of garden enthusiasts
by his interest not only in the prod
shcts of the garden but in the practi-
gal details of it's care. The woman
who wants more than anything else
FOR her birthday two loads of manure
belongs to the former class. She
Knows that without fertilizer the gar
den cannot exist and that for the rose
garden we'll rotted COW manure is the
food par excellence. Among newer
gardeners there is a general appre-
eiation Of the virtue of manure as a
fertilizer They usually recognize the
kact that it supplies the soil not only
the needed chemical constituents but
also humus. which is decayed vege-
table matter, which every good grow
Ing soil must contain. However, the
value of humus is not yet sufficiently
well known to the general public, for
the greatest supply of vegetable mat
ter in the world is ruthlessly destroyed
each Fall when Autumn leaves are
burned.
AS child 1 read with interest
simple book on geology which eX
tIie up VI lIie layers
Of soil which cover the rocky sub
surface OF the earth. Even then I
was impressed with the fact that the
falling leaves in the woods added year
by year to the soil, and that in un-
forested districts there was always a
gradual wearing away Of soil, the
rain carrying particles into the
brooks and rivers. and thence to the
sea- that this erosion was taking place
over all the earth, and that in time
there would be no soil, no vegetation,
no people. nothing but bare rock. SO
vivid was the picture that it seemed
to me the end of human life in the
world was not millions Of years away,
but just around the corner. and I felt
that to destroy any possible supply
Of new soil was literally immoral.
Although this childish image of a
swiftly arriving end of the world has
left me. still feel a deep respect for
soil and for decaying vegetable matter
which renews it. I realize that in the
forest the decaying leaves, falling
year after year, make the rich, black
loam in which the loveliest of wood
land plants delight, and that in the
open, when the leaves that drift out
are raked up and burned every Au-

always more

tumn, the soil becomes always more
barren
To the city dweller, particularly to
the apartment house dWeller VINO
owns no land. the conservation OF our
natural resources seems perhaps
distant issue. But 70 the landowner
who has even the smallest garden
this particular form Of conservation is
a matter which concerns his own
pocketbook. Why should he careless
ly throw away fertilizer in one form
only to buy it in another?
The simplest way of collecting this
available vegetable matter is to start
a compost heap, a place where 1t can
be properly stored for the necessary
decomposition. The general plea that
there is no available place may be dis
regarded, as a little corner 4 feet
square is sufficient. The higher the
material is piled the more rapidly it
will decay. The easiest way to keep
it within bounds is to build pen Of
rough boards, making one end remov-
able SO that the contents can be easily
handled. Into this pen pile dead
leaves, lawn clippings and refuse from
the garden, packing them firmly down
and covering them with alternate lay
ers of soil. Cover the top with soil
or with old boards to keep it damp,
and wet the pile down every week to
hasten decomposition.
If the compost is to be used in the
flower garden or elsewhere where
sweet ssil is needed, sprinkle lime on
each layer of leaves to neutralize
their natural acidity. But if it is to
be used on plants which demand an
acid soil avoid lime. 1t is for these
plants, rhododendrons, azaleas, noun
tain laurel or woodland flowers, that
the compost heap is especially recon-
mended Nothing else save collected
acid soil from the woods will take the
place of this acid compost.
