USE a mulch or covering Of straw or grass around the
base Of young plants to protect the roots, is the suggestion
being made by garden specialists Of the U. S. Department Of
Agriculture. They claim that mulching offers the following
advantages.
evidence Of splash erosion is the dirt that is splashed up on
lettuce and spinach and other plants BY rains. This splash
erosion loosens, the tiny soil particles which sink into the
small pores in the soil and seal it up with a tight surface
crust. That crust prevents water soaking into the ground. It
also prevents air getting into the soil. And of course some Of
the loosened soil is washed away.
SECOND, a mulch helps to maintain organic matter.
Scientists have found that materials applied as mulehes will
dosas much to increase organic content as if they weresmixe
with the soil. Generally, it is the organic matter which i'm
proves the condition and enables soils to absorb and hold
moisture.
Measurements have shown that soil under a mulch is usually
several degrees cooler on a hot day than is bare Soil, Also a
mulch keeps down weeds.
N Of the satisfactions Of the mulch is that it keeps the
feet clean and makes it possible to 60 into the garden when
the soil is wet.
ALMOST anything can be used for mulch. Often the
cheapest straw or moldy grass obtainable is used. Lawn clip
pings are fine and can be spread easily around vegetables
when theey are small Often gardeners cut weeds and grass
around their places or along roadsides and use them, but
don't use weeds that have already gone to seed,or you may
spread the weeds.

signed the Mills Brothers to do a
special version of the GLOW
