IN THE GARDEN

but April seems to suit 1. best.
Iris lovers will like to try it. 1t
requires very rich, moist soil,
It's season Of bloom is between
the tall-bearded and the late
blooming Japanese iris.
Vines on q Trellis
In small gardens it is eco
nomical Of space to train Gu
cumber vines against a trellis,
They ripen more evenly and
none are overlooked when pick
ing them.
Prepare for Tomatoes
It Is nearly time to set out
tomatoes so why not get the
planting holes ready and the
stakes set ahead Of time. Per-
haps you will wish to plant them
in wire cylinders this wear
There will be less danger of rot
ting fruit that way. and Mr.
Turtle will be cheated out Of his
show.
Shift Crowded Shrubs
Move shrubs that are becom-
ing too crowded.
Don't Modest Daffodils
Be sure not to disturb the
daffodils or other early bloom
ing bulbs. They must have time
to ripen their foliage and while
so doing build up strength for
next years blooming.
Camellia Suggestions.
II you are setting out new
camellia plants better follow
these suggestions: % Plant them
2 inches higher than the sur
rounding ground level: 90 keep
mulched: CD plant so as to avoid
early morning winter sun; and
"a well-drained, slightly acid
soil suits them best.
Pinch Pansies.
For q long blooming season
start now to pinch of the heads
OF pansies as they begin to fade.
Better still, cut them at least
every other day. Fill your bowls
with the lovely blossoms for the
house and give them to your
neighbors.
Guard Your Roses.
Be sure to spray roses. So
much rain for a few days has
made them grow, but it may also
encourage black spot.
Remove Old Stems.
Remove the old stems of hardy
phlox and chrysanthemums down

flowers such as zinnias, mari

seeded with plant food. Cover
the seed lightly. Keep the bed
moist at all times, never soggy.
Care Of Delphiniums
Delphiniums like plant food
and lime. Work them in around
established plants or into the
soil before setting out new
plants.
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
It will soon be too late to plant
onion sets, radishes and lettuce.
So hurry and get them in and
wish for some cool growing
weather.
Weed Spray
It is better to spray dande-
lions before they bloom but If
they all burst forth into bloom
following a few rainy days 1t Is
certainly better to spray now
than not at all. A low volatile
ester preparation Of 2.4-D Is
recommended.
Feed the Lawn
Do not fail to feed your new
green lawn if you have not yet
gotten around to it. The new
food requires no rakihg in II the
grass is growing, and most OF 1t
Is.
Don't Now Too Close
Be sure to cut the grass often
but not too closely. Keep the
crabgrass smothered out, and at
the same time protect the young
tender new shoots Of the deSir-
able kinds Of grass.
Average Garden Data
According to the Virginia De-
