Ryeoross for Winter Green

For a green lawn during the
winter SOW common (annual or
domestic) ryegrass as it is va
riously called. It is an annual
that will grow in colder weather
than almost any other grass.
Seed this ryegrass at the rate of
4 or S pounds per 1000 square
feet. 1t may be mown and treat
ed like any other lawn grass and
will provide a good green turf
all winter and spring. During
the heat of the summer, July or
August, it usually dies, leaving
the soil materially improved. At
that season we may scatter the
seed of the permanent grasses on
top of the dying foliage.

Lift and Store DohIios

Now that the dahlias have
been matured by the frost. the
tops have been cut off and the
roots left to ripen. They may be
dug and stored. Keeping the
roots free from dry rot has al
ways been a problem for the
home gardener. Stored in peat
moss, sawdust, vermiculite. etc.
they had to be examined pc
riodically throughout the winter
to be certain they were neither
too dry nor too wet.
This year we will try a new
method. The roots will be
cleaned after digging, divided,
and stored in polyethylane bags.
The bags will prevent drying and
can be hung or stored in any
cool but frost-free situation. The
cut surfaces will be busted with
sulphur as insurance against any
form of rot.
This method should be worth
a try since it greatly reduces the
danger of loss. The variety la
bells should be attached both to
the roots and the bags.
Gamma roots should benefit ma
terially from this method of
storage since they are even more
subject to dry rot than the
dahlias. The clumps may be
broken up sufficiently to permit
packing in the bags SO as to con-
serve space. The cut surfaces
should be busted to prevent rot.

DR.. Curtis May. forest pa
thologist of the Department Of
Agriculture and one of the best
informed men in the Washing
ton area on shade trees and
their problems, made sig
nificant statement recently. He
said that wet feet, because of
poorly drained soils. caused
more problems. with our shade
trees than any other single
factor.
Not all of our soils are poorly
drained. but grading operations
when the soils are wet can pro-
duce the same results Bull
dozers can and do puddle the
soils until they are impervious.
Thus when the gardener plants
a tree in a well-prepared hole
he may be placing it in tank
where standing water soon rots
the root system, or at least
causes such poor growth that
the tree might just as well be
dead.
Moke "a Hour Test
If we would take advantage of
DR.. Mays experience, we should
check the subsurface draining
in every planting hole for trees
or shrubs. This is easily done
by pouring a bucket Of water
into the planting hole after it
has been dug. If the water has
not soaked into the soil within
"a hours-half that time should
be ample-do something about it.

More Than One Dog
In Household d Held
Serious Mistake
By Peter Boaqs

There is an old saying: IF
one is good, two are better" It
is not always true. And with
dog ownership 1t practically
never is true. One dog is best.
The cavemen used to keep packs
and it was all very well in
pioneer days. 1t is even excus-
able in regions where dog packs
are still used for coursing game.
But among most of us, the
whole thing is a mistake. You
are far better off with one dog
than with two or more dogs.
Your one dog will have to rely
on you for comradeship, for
education in fact. for every
thing in his life. Thus he will
become wiser and more human
lied" and far better chum to
you and to your family than If
there were other dogs in your
household.
If you have more dogs than
one, either they will quarrel or
they may tsachSeach other bad
habits. -.
I have advised keeping dogs
in a kennel yard-even if the
yard be sma1l-rather than to
keep them tied or chained. But
every dog should be trained to
remain quiet when he is tied.
This because sometimes it is
necessary to fasten him, for a
short time, during walk or
when visiting or in hotel or
store. Therefore, tie, him up al
home, for perhaps 10 minutes a
day until he is used to it. So
short an imprisonment on the
end of a leash will do no harm,
and its practice may come in
mighty handy at times.

Enrich the Compost Pile

The complaint that compost is
slow in decomposing indicates
that the gardener puts all of the
responsibility on nature. The
addition of soil. ground lime
stone and fertilizer to the pile
as it is built not only speeds the
decay but results in a richer
compost for use in the garden.
The compost pile is the best de-
pository for the odds and ends

Spode Under the Old Stalks

Cornstalks and dahlia stalks
should either be burned, chopped
up and put into the compost

stroy the winter home of the

since iii gets a portion ef the
