Waterbury Democrat Gardening
 COnsultant
No. 2 in a Series

Plants take out of the soil chiefly nitrogen, which makes for leaf growth; phosphorous which pro- notes flowers and seeds; and potash which makes for root growth.
 There is no one complete fertilizer that will supply the necessary food for trees, shrubs, grass, flowers, and vegetables. Each one needs more of one element than another and there is no use adding a fertilizer with a high percentage of nitrogen for vegetable like a beet when potash is mostly needed
 That is why commercial fertilizers are labeled with the percentage of these three elements. For instance 4-8-6 means there is per cent of nitrogen, 8 per cent phoSphoric caid, and per cent potash.
 But commercial-na fertilizer with the ratio for your particular needs, or buy superphosphate, amonium sulphate, or nitrate of soda and use as follows:
 Annual flowers and Herbaceous Perennials: Fertilize in the spring at the rate of 10 pounds of super phosphate to 100 square feet of area, or use any commercial fer tilizer containing 4-12-4 at the rate of 4 pounds per 100 square feet
 Shrubs: Fertilize in the fall with animal manure if obtainable, other wise apply in the spring one hand full of ammonium sulphate around each shrub.
 Shade Trees: In April and July apply a plant food made up of 10 per cent nitrogen, 6 per cent phos- phoric acid with either or per cent potash. Mix this fertilizer with four times it's volume of garden soil, peat or shredded manure. Make holes with a crowbar IS inches deep and IS inches apart at the ends of the roots which are usually directly below the ends of the roots which are usually directly be- low the ends of the branches. Fill the holes witb mixture, then water.
 Never use bonemeal or lime on plN.tc requiring an acid soil, such as ntindendrons and laurel. Instead,

There is an old stump of a large tree on the lot. How can I get rid of it in the easiest way?"
 Answer First drill tWo- inch holes deep into the stump. A red hot poker will make the holes wide enough. Into each hole put two ounces of saltpeter. Fill the balance of the hole with water and cork with clay or mud. Leave for several days until this liquid penetrates into the wood. When hole is dry fill with paraffin and set on fire. At first 1t will burn slowly but the fire will gradually follow the route of the saltpeter and the entire stump will burn.
