One cannot expect the best Of sue
cess by simply punching a hole in the
hard soil or sod and dropping in the
bulbs, but should first work the soil
thoroughly and then plant with a
trowel. Many Of the lilies, such as the
Madonna, find hard work in emerging
through stiff clays and benefit from
covering with sand. The Madonna lily
needs only inches or so of cover, be-
cause 1t does not root from the stem,

Gus other species.
The Nectarine.
HORTICULTURALLY speaking,
the nectarine is an extremely
interesting fruit. Essentially 1t Is a
peach, differing only in the absence
Of fuzz from the skin. The origin OF
the nectarine Is curious. A single
branch on peach tree may occa-
sionally bear nectarines or peach pits
may sometimes yield rare nectarine
tree. This is the phenomenon of
sporting or bud mutation. Buds taken
from the nectarine brancfr~yield all
nectarine trees. OF late years necta-
rines are reaching the markets in
ever increasing quantities and are
popular with people who object to the
fuzziness Of the peach.

The chemical can be secured from any

Garden Information.

begonias, geraniums and heliotropes
for bringing into the house for Win
ter use and preservation. 1t Is well
to use something better than the ordi-
nary clay garden soil for potting these
plants. The clay puddles into a sticky
mass through which water passes
with difficulty and the plants are
actually too diy or too wet most Of
the time. Florists overcome this diff
Guilty by incorporating rotted sod and
leaf mold into their soil. Sand may
be used as soil amendment. The
home gardener can use peat moss and
sand or, better yet, II near the woods
can secure some rotted leaf mold and
work 1t into the garden soil until a
loose friable mixture is obtained. The
time spent In preparing the soil will
be well repaid in better growth and
Towering. When using the ordinary
flower pot, a few pieces of broken
pot placed over the hole in the bot
tom will prevent the soil from rum
ming out and will at the same time
prevent the outlet from clogging
later on.
Peach Borers.
PROBABLY the peach borer has
done more to drive the peach tree
out of the home garden than any other
insect or disease pest. Trees come
along to three or four years Of age,
bear a crop or two and then die, often
without the home gardener really
knowing what killed them. The borer

Garden Notes

FOLLOWING the rains, hundreds
of seedlings are appearing in the
perennial borders, hollyhocks, del
phiniums, columbines and the like.
These tiny plants will scarcely develop
into Towering size next Spring, but
those such as larkspur, which bloom
during the entire Summer, will attain
towering age next year. For the most
part, it does not pay to save chance
seedlings, because they rarely equal
their parents.
One home gardener friend calls at
tention to the danger of injuring
Oriental poppies with garden tools.
These plants are beginning to grow
again after their Summer rest, and
1t is easy to cut the young shoots off
beneath the soil unless the plants are
we'll marked with labels.
Madonna lilies are pushing up their
Autumn crown of leaves now. These
rosettes persist through the Winter
and from them emerges the flower
stalk which next June will carry a
group Of glorious pure white lilies with
light golden Stamens.

coming to appreciate the fact
L \ that early Autumn is the best
time of the year for preparing lawns.
The grasses that are most desirable
in the lawn, namely. blue grass and
red top, are cool weather plants and,
when sown in Spring do not get time
to fully establish themselves before
Summer arrives. In September SOW
ings the young plants do not grow
tall, but tend to produce new shoots
from the base. This habit of growth,
known as stooling, promotes a tlne,
firm turf. In Autumn many OF the
worst lawn weeds, such as crab grass,
are no longer terminating and the
better grasses have greater op-
portunity of dominating the seeding.
Most every one except the profess
sional landscape gardener uses TOO
much seed when planting the lawn.
About five pounds of seed are required
per 1000 square feet, depending some
what on the quality of the seed. One
writer suggests that if white clover
is used it be seeded separately to Sc
cure more uniform distribution.
Needless to say. the area designed
for a new lawn should be prepared
with care. for good results cannot be
expected by simply scratching the sur
face and sowing the seed. The soil
should be spaded as for garden and
fertilized with complete mixture
containing nitrogen, phosphoric acid
and potash at about the rate of one
pound to each 40 square feet. This
means that about 25 pounds are
needed for each 1000 square feet.
After fertilizing, the soil should be
leveled carefully to do away with de-
pressions in which water may stand
and kill the young grass. After level
ing. the seed should be sown on the
surface, preferably choosing a day
without wind and sowing in opposite
directions, so as to secure as even dis
tribution as possible. Following SOW
ing, the surface may be simply fat

moist and in good condition. the seed
will germinate rapidly at this season
and one will be rewarded quickly with
nice green surface.
Planting Bulbs.
QULBS differ from seeds In respect
to depth at which they should be
planted. No one would think Of plant
ing a seed inches deep. yet this is
the accepted depth for narcissus and
tulip bulbs, and some Of the lilies are
best planted even deeper than this.
Hyacinths should be covered with
about 4 inches of soil, and even the
tiny crocus does best II buried to a

Building activity in 2l5 larger cities
