plant in any way. not even to
remove broken roots.
Do not cut back the leaves and
stem. although this was formerly
the accepted practice. Expert
ment stations who have studied
the matter advise that the plant
needs all the roots and leaves it
has. and will recover faster If
you leave them intact.
Pouring water into the hole
and drawing earth into the water
excludes air pockets, and insures
good contact between roots and
soil. Do not pack the wet soil;
lit will settle down by its own
|shrinkage.
Plants set out in this way sell
dom wilt but in case they do, no
harm Is likely to result. They
soon recover and begin growth
as soon as the shock has worn
of.
Evening star., 1955-06-19

Transplanting a green and
growing plant is far different
from moving dormant shrubs. It
administers a shock to the plant
which is fairly compared to the
effect of a serious surgical opera
tion.
Most plants will recover, even
though the operator is unskilled,
but there are a few simple pre-
cautions which will increase the
percentage of success.
If you are growing your own
plants. prepare them for the ex-
|perience by giving them an ex-
ira feeding a week before the
operation. In a bucket Of water
(212 gallons) hang cloth bag
containing 10 ounces of your
regular plant food. 4 ounces to
the gallon. Let it soak overnight
then water the fiat with the So
luton. This will build up the
energy of your plants, for the
ordeal to come.
The night before the opera
ton, prepare another bucket OF
water the same way: or by using
a soluble plant food according
to the instructions for a starter

LIFE IN

Hens Enjoy Picture Window
BY JAMES BIRcHFIELD

There is nothing too good for
our chickens on The 40 Acres.
They are in their new house,
now, and they have q picture
window overlooking the lake.
They can roost on one side of
the room and watch the swallows
dipping into the lake as they
skim past.
Can't tell yet what effect this
will have on egg production.
Maybe we will end up with NAL
adjusted hens-hens that just
sit on the roost, envying the
swallows. instead of sitting on
the nests and laying eggs.
We couldn't think of using
ordinary straw in such q fancy
house. We bought chopped
sugar cane. It is ba1ed after
the juice is crushed out of the
cane and retains a sweet odor.
So. in the future. if you want
some sweet-smelling hens you'll
know where to look. Our
chicken room is in one end of our
new, cinderblock stable. 1t has
% concrete floor and a sheetrock
ceiling. Myron Jewell. who built
it, says 1t is too good for chickens.
"You ought to move out there,
yourself" he told me.

Of small trees, perching Just
overhead. You have to go out
quietly after dark and reach up
for them. At the first grab,
everything flies. They disap-
pear in the underground, and
that is the end of them for
the night. I have found that
it is best to get the roosters
first, If you can. A rooster
makes the most noise when
something comes along, and he
unsettles the hens.

Two Of the newest develop

already in use in Federal Gov

machine can handle q wide

ment departments can use
colored ink-that is up to top

The other machine uses a

A Government activity that

The YM.C-A. is concerned with

summer the Carver Branch served
its boy members, age to ID, at
Booker It. Washington High
School Gymnasium through its
group work program. The Y's pro-
gram was co-sponsored by the
Dade County School Board.
Perry stated that both private,
the Yum, and public, the school
board institutions worked cooper
atively in providing wholesome
recreation for youngsters in
Miami. More than 100 youngsters
were enrolled at the gym. in the
School Board program. Recogni-
ton must be given to the Camp
ing Committee for interceding for
use of the Gym. Perry said. Rev.
Edward T. Graham is chairman
of the Camping Committee. Perry
also stated that Charles L. Will
liams, Principal of Booker T.
Washington and school board
officials gave their blessings to the
joint use of the gym.
The executive of the Carver
Branch pointed out however that
a city the size of Miami should
not have to depend upon public
facilities to carry forward its
YMCA program. He stated that
gymnasium, swimming pool, club
rooms and resident rooms should
be owned and operated 10y the
