inscriptions, which when translated,

ROSES REQUIRE
PREPARATION TO
GROW THEIR BEST
BY MARGARET W1IEATLY

The rose, queen of flowers, re.
quires bit of preparation of her
bed, as befits queen. Perhaps the
one thing which causes roses to 60
to an early grave is wet feet.
Here in Imperial Valley where
the soil is hundreds of feet deep,
without an underlay of gravel, it
is essential that the planting plot
for certain flowers be especially
prepared.
There are few simple rules
which if followed will insure sue
cessful rose culture.
Prior to planting, out your rose
bushes, remove the soil to a depth
of about three feet, and place a
foot of coarse gravel or crushed
rock in the bottom Of the bed. Fin
ish filling the hole with a rich soil
composed of garden loan and we'll
rotted barnyard manure, and you
are ready to plant your roses. The
gravel insures perfect drainage.
While the rose likes tight soil
in which to grow it does not like
a soggy, soppy, wet soil. 1t also
does best in slightly acid soil. Do
not lime your roses-instead give
them leaf mold from under the oak
trees where it is possible to OBJ

tains haven't you noticed the wild
! rose growing luxuriantly under the
/ oak trees, There are many such
lessons one may learn by observing
nature.
"Do not sprinkle your rose bushes
after sunset, or while the sun is
shining" is the rule given by an
old rose authority, if you would
avoid mildew." BY this you may
imagine YOU are not to sprinkle at
all. Roses should be irrigated, in
stead, once week, or oftener, if
il is necessary to do so to keep the
soil moist, but not wet. In the sum
mer preferably just before the cool
er weather comes, do not irrigate
for at least a month, they will, dur
ing this time, partially defoilate,
which is essential for the produc
tion of roses over considerable
period of time. The one grave mis-
take made by most gardeners, is
not to give the evergreens rest
from moisture at some time during
the year. This is another import.
ant lesson one may learn by OBJ
serving nature. In most localities,
even, in the great forests, there is
period of the year when the soil
becomes quite dry. This gives a
chance for the cessation of the
flow of sap, and provides rest for
the root system. 1t is during this
time that the dormant period Of ev-
ergreens comes. While they do not
become bare as do the deciduous
trees they become dormant, and it
is then that sizable pines may be
removed from the forest to ones
own garden.

GOVERNMENT MAY
HELP ADVERTISE
NATIONAL PARKS

The opinion of the directorate
OF the I'll Centre Chamber of Com
merce has been asked as to the ad-
visibility of the issuance by the
government at the earliest possible
date of series of postage stamps
depicting the beauties. and the rec
reation assets of the national parks,
recommendation of such stamps
having been made by the American
Automobile Association. The club
is bringing the matter to the atten-
tion of DIR. Ray Lyman Wilbur, see
retary of the interior and to Post
master General Brown and other
members of President Hoover's
cabinet. 1t is hoped that not only
the motor clubs, but all organiza-
tions of the West will endorse the
idea.
"This series,, says the y. y. A.,
beautiful ever issued by our govern
ment and could serve to attract the
attention of millions of our citizens
to these great national resources
controlled by the government in the
interest of all the people. In the
event the series is issued cancel
lation mark on letters during the
summer season, reading visit ou,
national parks would further serve
to call attention to the great scenic
reserves of the West"
Although there are no national
parks in the vicinity of Imperial
Valley, it is believed by the cham
Der of commerce officials that such
stamps would create interest in the
West and would serve to stimulate
vacation travel in California which
! would bring more tourists of the
better class through this section and
the stamps, while not actually pie
turing this section of the state,
would arouse interest in the entire
West.
