GARDEN NOTES

The fine pansy plants that are now
being offered so freely for sale on our
markets were grown from seed sown
last July or August in frames and kept
through the Winter without any special
protection except perhaps light COW
ering OF leaves or straw. Pansies are
not difficult to grow and it is to be
wondered that more home gardeners do
not undertake their culture.
If one kept garden diary, it would
be surprising to see how little plants
vary in time of blooming from year to
year, irrespective of apparently wide
differences in temperature. Time of
blooming may be controlled, in part at
least, by the length of day, a condition
which has been found a highly irpor-
tant factor in controlling the time of
day length would be a much more
stable regulator than temperature or
moisture.
One of the finest of the daffodils is
the good old Emperor variety. The
plant is very sturdy in growth and con-
sistently increases in numbers from
year to year. The blooms have sub
stance as we'll as beauty and present a
mass of yellow about this time OF year.
1t is singular how much yellow color
there is in the early Spring garden, the
orange crocus, the golden forsythia
and the daffodils or narcissus. No
other season of the year is marked by
such a profusion of yellow in the
flower garden.
Hollyhock rust may be seen now In
small spots on the young leaves. This

STRAWBERRIES

In the crowded area of the average
sized home garden there is no fruit to
compare with the strawberry. The
plants are small, with limited root
spread. Yet are highly productive in re-
lation to the size of the area occupied.
Culture is simple and insect and disease
pests are not troublesome as rule.
The most serious pest to the strawberry
in the home garden is possibly the robin
which may be excluded from small beds
by a covering of coarse cheese cloth
supported on a low frame.
Strawberries are of two main groups,
the Spring bearing and the everbearing
For local conditions the Spring bearing
are much to be preferred. the one large
crop in late May or early June being
much more worthwhile than scatter
ing of berries throughout the season.
The dry period that strikes here in
July is severe on the strawberry and
extra hard on the ever-bearing kinds
which are trying to fruit and grow at
the same time.
Strawberries are grown both from
seed and from plants produced on
stolons or runners All of the culti-
waited varieties are, however, grown
from runner plants simply because the

THE HOME GARDENER
Of the
w
PAPER MULCH

In a lantern slide talk before the
Takoma Horticultural Club on March
"a DR.. Louis H. Flint of the Depart
ment of Agriculture presented q story
of the paper mulch situation in the
United States, with particular reference
to garden crops. One would gather
primarily from DR.. Flint's talk that
paper mulch has been very successful
where used properly, the limiting fac
tor being cost of the paper rather than
efficiency.
Paper mulch serves primarily as a
conserver of moisture in the upper soil
layer and increasing soil temperature
both by absorption of heat and reduc-
ton of radiation during the night. On
account of greater absorptive power,
black paper has proved generally more
satisfactory than white paper. DR..
Flint recommended the use of the bet
ter grade paper in the home garden,
because it is more durable and can
withstand harder use, such as being
walked upon. Fastening the paper
with long wires shaped similar to cro-
quet wickets is considered better than
piling on soil, because the latter tends
to rot the paper, and at the best re-
duces its efficiency in heat absorption.
A very important point brought out
by DR.. Flint was the fact that the time
of applying paper is all important. II
paper is applied in Summer after the
soil has dried out in the surface layers,
results may be disastrous with newly
set plants, simply because the added
heat plus shortage of moisture produces
an intolerable situation in which the
roots cannot re-eStablish themselves.
Thus it was evident that good judgment
is required in making good use of the
paper. Paper mulch Is not a substi-
tute for fertilizer. although it may
greatly increase the effectiveness of
fertilizer bv keeping the top soil moist.
DR.. Flint showed view of his own
rose garden across the river in Virginia.
The plants were evidently in splendid
condition despite the fact that they
had never been cultivated. To make
the paper less unsightly the entire sur
face had been strewn with pine needles.
A garden walk constructed of an inch
or two of gravel laid over paper was
shown. and Dr.. Flint stated that he
thereby overcomes the difficulty Of
keeping out grass and weeds.
In conclusion. Dr. Flint emphasized
the usefulness of paper mulch for those
local gardeners who generally take a
few weeks vacation in the Summer
months. Properly covered with paper.
the garden will go through trying weeks
of Midsummer without any special
care.
There are two Department of Agricul-
ture bulletins, both by DR.. Flint. dealing
with the subject. namely, Technical

WOOD ASHES

places. Wood ashes contain so COM
paratively little valuable ingredients in
relation to their bulk that it would
scarcely pay to purchase them. Many
local gardeners make use of sifted coal
ashes for improving the texture Of sticky
clay soils.
Gardeners frequently ask If coal and
wood ashes make good fertilizer for gar
den soils. According to the Depart
ment of Agriculture, wood ashes from
hardwoodS contain considerable potash
and little lime and are valuable fer
tilizer. Fairly dry unbleached hardwood
ashes may be applied at the rate of not
more than so pounds to 1900 square
feet. Wood ashes from softwoods and
hardwood ashes that have been exposed
to the weather and have had the potash
leached from them have little fertilizer
value. Coal ashes have little value as
fertilizer, their use being mainly to

really much more beautiful than it is

There are many wonderful new varie-

THE GARDEN CLUBS

The regular April meeting of the
Montgomery Suburban Garden Club
was held last evening at the Somerset
School. The guest speaker was Leonard
w. Kephart of the Department Of Ag-
riculture, who spoke on lawns. Accord
ing to bulletin published by the club
1859 active members were enrolled at the
March meeting and more were taken in
last evening. Considering that the club
is less than one year old, this is phe-
nomenal growth andh speaks well for
the diligence of the officers and also for
the communities in which this club has
so rapidly developed.
Among items discussed in their bull
letin are discounts on seeds and fer
tiliZerS secured for members, the new
membership directory, the coming an
niversary celebration on May II and
coming flower shows.
The president and secretary are, re-
spectively. Aubrey B. Carter and Mrs.
Lulu c. Richardson.
The Takoma Horticultural Club is
planning to hold narcissus show early
this month. This show always brings
together a splendid collection of varie-
ties and will be we'll worth the time of
any flower grower or admirer. The
place of the show will be the Branch
Public Library, located at Fifth and
Cedar streets. The exact date will be
announced later.
The plant exchange committee of the
Potomac Palisades Garden Club, Mrs.
c. P. Oakley is prepared to give sug-
gestions on named varieties of gladioli
uses for late Fall blooming. The club
plans to stimulate interest in these easily
grown flowers so that Potomac Heights
can participate in the many interesting
competitions on this popular flower,
Mrs. Oakley reports.
Plans will be announced definitely at
an early date for a garden competition
for the children of Potomac Heights.
The club expects to announce list of
prizes and hopes that it will have the
full cooperation of the parents of the
children in its efforts to teach the young
people to know and enjoy flowers.
