Wooden Garments Better Care

Better care of wooden garments
will keep them in shape for extra
warmth when and If housing tenn
peratures are lowered in order to
save fuel. Woolens have unusual
warmth giving powers, but that does
not mean that they can withstand
extreme temperatures or accumula-
tons Of soil and dirt and still give
good service. Men who wear their
wooden sweaters or jackets from
one end of the year to the other
may discover too late that the soil
which has sifted into the fabric is
doing some subtle sabotage on the
fibers.

Take Protective Measures
When Dividing Perennials
BY a. G.. Mclean

In dividing perennials, especially
when the work is done in the fall,
lift the plant, cut back about half
the foliage, and then separate the
plant into sizable pieces. Be sure
there is a growing point on each
piece. To protect the roots from
drying out during these operations,
keep them covered with a moist bag
or some other material while
handling the plant.
Another good protective measure
for plants that are to be trans
planted or divided is a pail of muddy
water or thin mud in which the
roots can be dipped. This is called
pudding. 1t brings the soil in
direct contact with the roots and
thus makes them take hold faster.
a good percentage of the roots
Is destroyed when perennials are
lifted, so the tops of the plants
should be reduced accordingly The
plants will then make new top
growth, and if the transplanting is
done early enough there will be no
damage from frost injury. ANY of
the early blooming perennials-
those that bloom before June or
early in June-will make strong
clumps before fall and will bloom
next year if they are divided now.
Many gardeners are now setting
out narcissum bulbs, and this is a
good time to start them. Some of
the better varieties are slightly
higher in price, but they are reve-
