habitat is in the woods and so
when brought out into the open,
unless well mulched, the roots are
unable to supply sufficient mois-
ture to the leaves.
Uncovered banks facing the
south or west usually suffer
greatly from winter injury unless
the ivy is covered with pine
broughS or some other light COW
ering that keeps the leaves dor
mant during the winter. That is
the reason why we do not plant
ivy on the south or west sides Of
q house.
Yes, winter protection is large
ly a matter of shielding our
plants from warm periods during
the winter, from the winter sun,
and from the moisture-robbing
winds.
In most winters a little piece
of burlap tackled to stakes will
keep most of our more tender
plants safely dormant until
spring. and that can hardly be
called "coddling."

LIFE IN
THE COUNTRY
BY JAMES sIRcHFIELD
The 40 Acres Are Really Jumpino
BY JAMES BIRcHFIELD

Things really have been pop
ping around the 40 acres these
last few days.
Our Hereford COW presen q
us with a fine roam calf; we had
a deer visitor in the front yard;
and two deer-a nice. big buck
and a fat doe-were killed on the
highway.
It Is really something when
deer trafic gets so heavy it in
terferes with automobiles. And.
suppose, we're going to have to
do something about it.
/ suggest that perhaps we
should mark a crossing on Route
Z for deer. and perhaps the State
Highway Department will put up
stop lights. Then we can put
signs up throughout the woods,
directing all deer to use he
crosswalks.
Our COW has presented another
problem-and it is one of fences
again.
Just when was congratulate
ing myself for getting the fences
cow-proofed, she has to come
along and spoil 1t by going
through one into the adjoining
field.
The trouble was the calf. From
the way she acted, you would
have thought the COW had never
had one before. She suspected
that someone lurked behind every
bush to steal her calf.
She wouldn't leave it even to
eat, and when John, our To-
year-old, wandered into the pas
ture to take a close look at the
calf, she chased him right back
out again.
I don't know how she and the
calf managed that fence, but the
other morning / came out to
find both Of them over 1t and
in the big field on the next
farm.
The bad part is I have no ideas
about getting them back again.
I'm afraid she won't let me
catch either herself or the calf.
And it doesn't look at this time
like she might come back home
again of her own accord.
Well. maybe something will
happen. ! hope so.

So far as I know, we have had
only one visiting deer in our
yard. She came from the pine
field, jumped into the garden,

GARDEN
GUIDANCE
Winter Protection Can Be Overdone
BY W.. H. YoUNGMAN

When cold winds and snow
threaten there is a tendency to
want to protect some Of our gar
den plants and shrubs; but this
can be overdone.
Cold is seldom injurious to
them il the wood is mature OF
ripened when below freezing
temperatures arrive. This ma
turing takes place gradually as
the weather turns cold and in
normal seasons is complete be-
fore severe winter weather ar
rives.
Once in a great while we have
q very sudden change from warm
to very cold weather without
this cooling-off period and, be-
cause the plants are not mature,
they suffer freeze injury. While
this is not common in the WASH
ington area. we may bring it on
by late feeding Of shrubbery or
by watering in the late summer
so that unreasonable new growth
Is stimulated. This new growth
coming on late in the season may
not have had time to ripen.
Early Feeding Is a Factor
1t is the gardeners activities
that have an important influence
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1956-12-02

upon the hardness Of many Of
his plants and shrubs. We should
feed our plants early enough Sc
that they may make their growth
in the proper season.
Boxwood is one Of the shrubs
that needs to be fed very early
in the season because of the
slow response. February and
March are the best months to ap-
ply fertilizer to them.
AzaleaS, roses, camellias and
many other evergreens should not
be fertilized after the middle Of
the summer. certainly not after
the first Of August.
When summer drought tends
to check growth Of woody plants
1t may bel mistake to water and
feed them. because Of the danger
Of stimulating new growth late
in the season. There is no really
satisfactory rule to follow for
every circumstance. Some rose
growers feed up to the first Of
September. so that they will have
fine flowers for the fall shows.
In most years they do not suffer
loss from that practice. How
ever, the more tender the plant

sent to the repair shop now so
that they will be ready for use
when wanted next spring. The
shops are not busy now and can
do a better Job.
Dust Those House Plants
House plants need to have the
dust removed from the foliage
at least once month. This may
be done with blast Of water
or they may be placed under a
shower. Cold water is preferred
for the job as 1t helps to keep
sucking insects under control
but. Of course. cold water can
not be sprayed on African violet
or gloxinia foliage. After the
spraying or shower make sure
that the pots drain thoroughly.
Overwhelming is q common cause
of injury to house plants at this
season Of the year.
dot on GladioIus Corms
After the gladiolus corms are
cleaned they should be busted
with DOT or put in sacks with
a tablespoonful Of napthaIene
flakes. This is to kill any thrips
which may be spending the
winter on the corms. The flakes
should be removed after a week
or two. The DOT dust should
be applied very thinly If dam
age to the corms is TO be avoided
Food for the Birds
1t is not too early to lay in
a generous supply Of bird food
for the wild birds that spenu
the winter in the garden. Regu-
lar feeding is a sure way Of
keeping them as winter guests.
Self-feeders are the easiest to
maintain. but II squirrels are a
problem 1t might be well to get
one Of the newer squirrel-proof
kinds which have Q large alu-
minum hood that makes 1t difi-
cult for the squirrels to get to
the feeding platform.
Aluminium and Plastic
At the recent showing OF
manufacturers garden equip
ment it was interesting to note
that aluminium and plastic are
replacing iron and wood in many
garden fixtures and much equip
ment. This helps to make the
fixtures last longer and reduces
the need for protective paint.

Now that freezing weather has
put an end to much Of the gar
den work, it's time to turn to the
final steps of putting the garden
to bed. One of the most impor-
tant is to rid the garden Of
winter homes Of insects and
diseases.
The removal Of weeds and
trash from fence corners, num-
mied fruits from the trees, and
plant tops that are likely to har-
Dor diseases. does much to cut
down on next years problems Of
pest control.
Rake up and destroy the fallen
rose leaves If they are infected
with blackspot. This type Of ma
terial should be thoroughly
composted with Migrated lime or
buried so that neither the insects
nor the diseases will survive.
AVOiU ctAuuluB WatCE
Another phase of winter sani-
tation has to. do with the drain
age Of flower beds and other low
spots Standing water is harmful
to bulbs and dormant plants as
well as to the grass in the lawn.
Filling the low spots with dirt so
that the water drains away is
usually the easiest method. but
it may be necessary to dig
bitches.
If the weather should mod
crate for a few days. so that the
dormant deciduous shrubhery
may be sprayed with a dormant
strength spray. that is a very
desirable chore to supplement
those given. A dormant strength
spray not only kills scsee insects:
it also destroys many disease
spores that normally spend the
winter on bark and twigs. Lime
sulphur Is the more commonly
used Of the dormant sprays.
Clean Up Old Stocks
It is well to check the left
over sprays and dusts. discard
ing those that will not be needed
next season or that have deteri-
GRATED and are Of no value. Bor-
deaux and rotenone are two that
seldom retain their strength
from one season to the next.
Power Tool Care
As soon as the power equip
ment is ready for storage. both
the fuel tanks and the carbu-
Iretors should be drained. Evapo-
rating fuel leaves q deposit likely
to foul the carbureator next
spring. Coat all bare metal with
grease. and squirt oil into the
cylinder heads II you would have
the equipment stored without de.
terioration.

our kitchen we could enjoy
watching a herd of deer grazing
about the pond. And there might
be less grass to cut come spring
time again.

riot Of color for many months
and. perchance, a ribbon or two
in next years dahlia show.
