Ludino for Protein

Ladino clover has a definite re-
placement value for concentrates,
and will provide the protein re-
quirements for weanling pigs.
This is indicated by tests at the
Holland branch of the Virginia
Agricultural Experiment Station.
The researchers found that an
acre of ladino clover making good
growth produced the equivalent of
something like 400 pounds of pro-
tein supplement during the period
from early May to the first of
September.

Four Dependable PerennioLs|
Varieties May Be Selected to Provide
Blooms From S pring Until Frost
By W. H. Younemon
Garden Editor

growers and for good bloom should
be lifted and divided every three
or four years. Because they are
rapid growers it is common prac-
tice to buy a single division of a
good variety, knowing that it will
provide stock for a bed in q few
years. However, many of the more
highly rated varieties, may be
bought for as little as Is cents a
division, and the majority of the
top hundred cost less than one
dollar each.
Moisture Needed.
Iris. to give top quality bloom,
should have an abundance of
moisture during the blooming sea-
son. This is best supplied by hav-
ing plenty of humus mixed with
the soil at the time Of bed prepa-
ration. Decayed compost is the
most commonly used material,
although the old iris books always
mentioned well-rotted manure.
Iris are not free from insect
problems and the control of the
iris border was a problem for
many years. Now we may spray
the iris foliage in the early spring
CMay) with DOT and control that
pest reasonably well. A S per cent
solution of DOT. plus a good stick
er applied to the foliage just be-
fore Towering and again at two
to three weeks intervals until July
will keep the borers under con-
troll. If iris leaf spot should be
prevalent, add ferbam to the
spray.
Iris should be divided or pur-
chased soon after the Towering
season SO that they will be well
established before cold weather
comes. They may be bought as
late as September, but the pre-
ferred season is in late June or
early July.
Snowy Fall Bloomer.
The fourth perennial, the hardy
garden chrysanthemum, is the
most snowy of the fall boomers.
However, because Washington has
a mild, open winter, many gar
deners from the north find chrys-
anthemumS difficult to grow in
this area. This is because the
chrysanthemum must be protected
from cold, wet soils during the
winter. BY lifting the clumps in
November and planting them on
a ridged-up bed to which sand
has been added, this problem is
easily solved.
ChrySanthemums, for good
growth and bloom, should be di-
vided each year in the spring.
the new shoots being set out in
well enriched soil. Space the
shoots at least 2 feet apart in
rows that are 2 feet apart. If the
shoots are pinched back two or
three times, by the middle of June
they will produce bushy, broad
headed plants that will provide a
mass OF bloom during the fall.
Chrysanthemums are available
that will flower in September,
October or November. The Cush-
ion, or azaleasmum type, will
flower earlier. Select the varieties
according to season of bloom and
color desired.
The chrysanthemum is not i'm
mune to disease or insect pests,
but if healthy plants are given
good culture, little trouble on
this score may be expected.
