In his message to Congress

Club Topic

Old Trail Garden Club was en-
tertained at the home of Mrs. Eu-
gene DENIM. Counts Road, Tues
day evening, the major part of the
program being devoted to the
study of Wild Flowers.
As a start for the evening, each
member told at roll call where
she had secured the wild flowers
used in arrangements brought for
display.
Mrs. Robert Waller, in a talk
on Conservation of Wild Flow
ers," stated among other interest
ing facts, that trillium, blood root,
jack in the pulpit and trailing ar
butus, to mention a few, are dis
appearing from many Of their ma
tive habitats, and in order to pre-
vent them from totally disappear
ing, fancierS of wild flowers are
urged not to pick or dig them. In
discussing violets, she stated that
there are at least 100 species and
these can be grown from seed as
well as plants. The wild flower
should be transplanted in the fall
and covered with oak leaves or
pine needles for winter protection;
if wild ferns are transplanted, care
should be taken that they are re-
set in the same condition as they
are found in wooded places, were
pertinent hints in the talk
