naturally acid soil that prevails here
Is very well suited to the azalea.
Also the many trees provide the
partial shade that the azalea enjoys.
Fertilizers, such as nitrate of soda and
bone meal, that contain lime are not
favorable to the azalea and one should
use sulphate OF ammonia, which has
an acid-promoting property. Peat
moss Is also favorable for 1t, too, Is

tices. such as the destruction Of weeds,
mulching with peat moss and in
corporation Of leaf mold and peat moss
into the soil, are primarily aimed at
water conservation. Peat moss Is
highly retentive Of moisture. acting as
q sponge, but releasing its supply to
the plants tiny roots when badly
needed. In the Spring, while rains
are frequent, 1t Is dincult to appre-
ciate the Importance Of garden prac-
tices that have water conservation as
their primary objective.
Many plants consist Of 80 or more
per cent Of water and all plant
nutrients are taken In by the plants
roots as water solutions. Fertilizers
would thus have no value at all were
there insufficient water to dissolve
them. This fact was clearly demon
strated during the severely dry Sum-
mer Of some years ago. Some gar
deners have installed overhead irriga-
ton in their gardens for insurance
against droughty conditions. Much
can be accomplished by keeping weeds
under full control and by making the
soil porous with leaf mold, peat moss
and stable manure so that 1t can hold
water over longer period.
Garden Notes.
ONE Of the surprising things about
home gardeners Is the rapidity
with which the more enthusiastic
acquire q vocabulary of botanical
names. The knowledge Is more or less
forced on one because 80 many Of the
less common species have only Latin
names and also because so many Latin
names, such as delphinium. gladiolus,
dahlia and the like are accepted
directly into the English language.
The botanical name is much more
exact than the common name. Take
number OF related but different
plants, such as the common field daisy,
the pyrethrum, the Shasta daisy and
the English daisy
It Is strange and bit unfortunate
that the native violets have no fra
GRANGE and that we have to turn to
the English violet to gain this esti-
uldUic QudllIy. lcIc dIC ACTUALLY
dozens Of different species OF Amer
ican violets, none with any appreci-
able fragrance. Perhaps this is be-
cause the colorful violet flower pro-
duces no seed. These are produced
by short -stemmed petalless blooms pro-
duced below the leaves and known
by the rather formidable name Of
cleistagamous flowers. These are fer
tilted before opening while yet in
the bud. The seed pod has one use
full feature, that OF breaking open
with considerable force and scattering
the seeds several feet. Perhaps this
accounts for the rapid spread of the
native violets. The Vermont Agricul-
tural Experiment Station has sue
ceeded in crossing some Of the native
violets with the frag ant English vio-
let and perhaps it is not too much to
hope that some day we shall have a
race OF sturdy. partially American
violets that will adorn our Spring
| gardens.
The azaleas came through the past
| Winter in excellent condition and In
their gorgeous beauty brought lots OF
| color to many a home. Washington
| gardeners are fortunate, since the

two weeks later, much Of the injury
may be prevented. Most Of the gar
den supply stores have available paste
concentrates of Bordeaux mixture and
arsenate OF lead under various trade
names. These are readily diluted with
water in the proportions indicated on
the containers. One need not fear
accumulations Of toxic residues, since
the berries are very small and many
weeks elapse between the second spray
ing and maturity. In this period
rains are certain to wash away most
OF the remaining residues. Grapes are
one OF the most satisfactory local fruits
and anything that may be done to
make the fruit attractive and palatable
is well worth while.
Water,
WITHOUT always realizing the fact,
water is probably the one most
important factor concerned in garden
ing. In this general area, with high
average annual rainfall fairly well dis
tributed throughout the year, water
does not often become the extreme
problem that it is in less favored
areas. Yet many Of our local prac-

recommend its planting except where

Is strange, indeed, how certain plants,

dentally or on purpose from other
lands. have made themselves alto

The Grape Moth.
THE worm-beridden berries Of the
Concord, Niagara and other grapes
may be avoided by timely spraying in
Spring with arsenate Of lead used alone
or, better yet, in combination with
Bordeaux mixture. The moth deposits
its eggs on the young, tender leaves
just about blossoming time and the
young emerging worms shortly move
to the young grapes. If the vines
