factorily and so they prefer the
early and midseason varieties.
There are many varieties. forms and
colors to choose from. In general
1t is best to choose those having a
high rating, 8.5 or above. This
rating by the American Peony So
ciety Is guide to the general all
around performances of a variety.
Most gardeners plant the rose type,
which is best liked. although it Is
a heavy flower which during spring
showers may become dirty because
of its weight If the rain bends it to
the ground. There are six main
types and all are attractive.
Early season tomatoes are best for
canning. They are more solid than
the later pickings. which tend to be
soft and watery. Let the fruit ripen
fully on the vine as the sugar pro-
duced in the final ripening makes
the canned product that much bet
ter. Process them promptly after
picking or much of the food value
will be lost. Vitannn c is transitory
and II we are 10 keep it the fruit
should not be allowed to stand
longer than necessary.
Clip or shear such plants as phlox
subulata cerastium and the dwarf
pinks. This annual shearing will
keep the plants healthier and more
compact than if allowed to become
straggly. Oftentimes the cuttings
from Phlox subulata. moss pink.
may be rooted in cold frame and
new plants obtained.
~
The snowy hardy phlox does not
generally thrive in local gardens
1t is thought by some that this may
be due to the soil becoming so hot
and dry at Towering time. For this
reason they recommend summer
mulches to keep the soil and roots
cool. Gardeners near Charlottesville
Va, claim to have had marvellous
success using the crushed corn-cob
mulch over their phlox beds.
Rabbit injury to vegetable gardens
continues although most crops can
be protected by spraying with any
one Of several materials. The Mary
land State Fish and Game Commits
sion recommends epson salts. 3
ounces to gallon of water. Other
repellants are: !. Powdered alum, 2
ounces mixed with l pound of to-
bacco dust, may be applied as a dust.
2. Aluminium sulphate. teaspoon
fuls and S tablespoonfuls of hydrat-
ed lime in gallon of water. This
last one is poisonous and any crop
to which it has been applied should
be washed carefully before using.
The effectiveness of any of these
will depend upon keeping the foliage
covered. which means new applica-
tions after each shower or after new
growth.
