marched back and forth before the

Embassy across the street two women
watched with interest for a while.

Don Marcello del Drago del Principi

to gather around one of their leaders,
Martin Chancey, who spoke from a
pile of iron window frames before
an apartment house in construction
opposite the Embassy
To his fellow pickets and a large

Shrubs of the deciduous type
meaning those that lose Their
leaves in the fall, should be given
a good mulching at this time and
should have some bone meal and
blood meal worked into the mulch
Then in the early spring the
shrubs will have a large supply OF
available nitrogen and phosphoric
acid. This will give then good
vigorous growth and in the case
of blooming varieties will increase
the bloom threefold.
Flower seeds planted at this time

perience disease called "damping
Off, that is, the seeds start to
grow and wilt down A great
amount of experimental work has
been done to determine how this
"damping off, could be prevented.
1t has been found that if you dust
the seed before planting with cop
per carbonate cuprous oxide or
with semesan dust you can prevent
this almost entirely. Another way
to combat this is to mix metco iron
oxide with the soil. This is applied
the same as you would fertilizer.
This will also heighten the color
of the bloom on the plants treated.

CLUB WOMEN
BACK BEAUTY
CAMPAIGN
Ry Mrs. Warrcn Currier

The idea of city Identification
is a good one and Is meeting with
the approval and cooperation of
FL Centro's clubwomen. Adopting
the petunia as the city flower is
most practical, since no flower
that can be raised here gives more
satisfaction IN return for the small
amount of time and money spent
on it.
After many years of experience
in raising petunias I do not parti-
cularly advise trying to raise them
from seed. The plants are very
reasonable and by putting them
in from October to December, or
even later If the season is mild,
one will have profusion of
flowers all spring and summer. The
petunia will also live through the
summer for a second season if
planted in favorable spot. Our
Ten Thousand club garden chair
man, Mrs. o. G. Horne will be glad
to give information to any ladies
interested.
