THIS WEEK.
IN THE GARDEN

This continues to be a busting
spraying season., Just about
everything needs to be protected
from something.
Spray for the crawling stage
of scale insects on lilacs, euony-
mus etc. Choose between MIC
otine sulphate and soap, and
Malathion. The latter is re-
ported to be effective without
danger of burning the foliage
Apply in the early morning be-
fore the sun gets hot.
Spray or dust phlox and any
other plants which may be trou-
bled by mildew with sulphur
or with the new Karathane. Hot
days and cool nights bring mil
dew and it is much easier to
prevent than to clean out an
infestation. Sulphur will burn
roses when temperatures are
above IS degrees F. Some of
the newer all-purpose rose dustS
and sprays contain Karathane
which is an advantage since we
should be regularly spraying or

busting to controls blackspot,
japanese beetles and the aphids
Fungicide as PrecautiOn
We should not now assume
that there is no danger of crown
rot in the delphiniums, oriental
peoples, and phlox. Well-tilled
soil about the crowns of these
plants is the usual control prac-
tice, but trouble may be pre-
vented BY soaking the soil with
one of the fungicides. Bordeaux
mixture is one. but others may
be used In case of infection use
bichloride of mercury l to 1000
"a tablet to a quart of water.
Spray for Azalea Pests
AZaleaS may need another
spray to protect them from the
troublesome lace fly. Do not
wait until you see the flies, but
spray to get them as early as

Not toe many years ago many
many gardens had at least one
variety of clematis growing lear
a porch to furnish shade. Most
of the vines grew beautiful, dark
purple flowers. They were called
Clematis jackmani There was
also a white variety and a sort
of mauve colored one.
Now there are many varieties
of great beauty-so many lovely
ones that it is indeed hard to
choose.
1t is best to buy 2-year- old
plants on their own roots. They
will do best if bought as ported
plants since they do not like to
be disturbed.
Need Five Hours Sun
They should be set in rich.
Well-drained soil where they will
get sun at least five hours a day
ClematiS like water but not wet
feet Set them so that the crown
is about two inches below the
surface. New roots will develop
above the crown. They are shall
low rooted and do not like cult
walton. hence fiat rock OF
mulch is usually beneficial pro-
lection.
Lime seems to be enjoyed by
some varieties and in case of
doubt it is well to mix ground
limestone in the planting hole
Right from the beginning the
vines will need some support Lots
Of growers prefer a trellis made
of pipe and chicken wire.
Advice on Pruning
Wait at least couple of years
before pruning, that is most of
the varieties. The species, c
virgiana. should be cut off at the

possible-before- they build up
in great numbers. Malathion is
an excellent control material.
Things to Plant
Snap beans may be planted to
insure a supply of fine crisp
beans for the table in late sum-
mer.
Chinese cabbage, cucumbers,
endive and kale may be sown
now for a late summer and early
fall crop. Another planting of
sweet corn may well be put in
now. Keep a steady succession
of vegetables coming along. 1t
is a good way to tempt appe-
titles in hot. humid weather.
On Pruning Shrubs
Most of the spring Towering
shrubs should have been pruned
before now, If not. they probably
need some pruning, if only the
removal of the spent flowers
Cut out some old branches and
shape them up a bit but do be
careful to avoid leaving the APP
pearance of crew or whiffle"

berries in the fell postpone most

ground each spring and whole
new vine will develop, but this
does not apply to the named
varieties.
Fertilize with a general pur-
pose plant food in the early
spring. Water in dry weather
and mulch in the winter.
There are many colors to
choose from, from pure white
to reds and blues and violetS. In
height they vary from 6 to l6
feet. The varieties easiest to grow
are Gypsy Queen dark velvety
purple, Henryi (white), Jack
mans superba dark violet-pur-
plel. Madame Edouard Andre
(velvety purpliSh red. and Vile
de Lyon reddish purple.
Some Other Varieties
There are a number of other
varieties which will do well here,
such as Pomona blue. Con-
Jesse de Bouchard Ted), Elsa
Spaeth bright blue, and Ouch
eSs of Albany scarlet.
In addition there are a number
of species available. The one best
known is c. virgiana, or Virgins
bower. 1t grows fairly high and
forms such a mass of vine and
white flowers that it makes an
excellent screen. Also, it is the
most tolerant of soil conditions
and will thrive in many situa-
lions where the others would
fail. And. it is a fall bloomer
whereas the others are spring
and summer boomers. S. panicu-
lata, is similar to the Virgins
bower in many ways, but blooms
later in the summer. Paniculata
is deliciously fragrant. Both are
strong growers. S. Y.
