HOME GARDENS
QUESTIONS and ANSWERS


Questions directed to the coun-
ty agent on garden or farm prob
lens in the public interest will be
answered regularly in these COL
umns.
Q-What is the best ground
cover for wooded plot around
the home? j. M, Dover.
A-PeriWinkle or vinca is one
of the best and cheapest locally
Transplauts are readily available
around Dover. Virginia Creeper,
some ivy, and winter creeper are
also suggested.
Q-What is the best analysis of
fertilizer to apply to your lawn
from the standpoint of economy
of nutrients that you want to ap-
ply NPK and or minor elements :?
l-O.MB., Dover.
A-For a general recommenda-
tion, a 5-10-10 commercial fertil-
izer or similar ratio is probably
the best buy. We rarely need to
worry about minor elements in
lown feeding.
Q-What is the best type of
lime to use ?-OM.B., Dover.
A-For the money and over a
period of time, ground limestone.
Hydrated or burnt lime gives
faster results, but usually costs
twice as much.
Q-How can you keep wire
grass under control? Since the
State Highway seeded a steep
bank in front of our house, the
wire grass is creeping in my flow
er BEDS Mrs. F. r., Dover.
A-The chemical Dalapon used
according to directions will kill
wire grass and other plants.
Perhaps metal guard around
your beds will help. They are be-
ing made of aluminium and are
fairly cheap for small plots.
Q-Is it right that clover dies
out in about two years? FIR,
Dover.
A-Some clovers are biennials.
1t depends on the species. Many
die out due to grass competition
or for other reasons, however.
O. Would Lespedeza planted
with the lawn seed add to the
nitrogen content of the soil? GIN,
Smyrna.
A-Lespedeza makes a poor
lawn seed altho it is in the clover
family and will add nitrogen to
the soil. 1t makes but little
growth until July, and goes to
seed by early September. 1t does
seem to work well along shallow
road banks.
Q-How do you control the
weed seeds in compost to keep
from planting weeds all over the
place? MRS. WAN, Dover.
A-You must be careful not to
| put noxious weeds which have
gone to seed in the compost pile.
Rather burn them. Turning the
compost pile occasionally helps the
decomposition process so that
fewer weeds will sprout.
Q-How does zoysia grass work
in this area? Does it spread like
Bermuda grass into the gardens
WIS, Dover.
A-zoysia grass will grow well
enough in this area. 1t is ex-
pensive to start, tends to be a
coarse grass, and turns brown
with the first frost. 1t does
spread by the roots, but not as
fast as does Bermuda grass.
Q-What kind of grass seed
should be planted to have a green
lawn in the wintertime? What
are the hazards to this grass in

A-Kentucky blue grass stays
green as well as anything. But,
it does burn badly in the summer.

Control of Black Knot
OF Plums Is Given

Black knot is a serious disease OF
plum trees. Small twigs are fire.
quently killed within a year and
larger branches in three or four
years.
Home owners and orchardists
with plum trees should examine
the trees for black knot during the
dormant season and prune all
knots from the trees. This sugges-
ton comes from County Agent
John Carter Black knot will also
be found on cultivated and wild
cherries.
The disease is first seen as a
small swelling. Infection occurs
early in the spring on the tender
one-year old wood In the follow
ing year, the knots become larger
in size. BY fall they are black in
color

it is too big and should be cut. But,
why don't they pitch in and do it?

bert Hoover say that it can be cut
from ) TO s billion dollars. They
say that cut like this will greatly
lessen the initiation danger and
steady our economy, 1t also will
make it possible to lower taxes
next year. And, everybody knows
taxes arc too darncd high saw
the other day that Senator Byrd
said that he hoped to make at
least SIS billion cut but that il
would be very hard to do without
more cooperation from the Prcsi-

from the knots and these cause in
lection late in April on the new
growth
Here are Mr.. Carriers control
recommendations
Remove all knots from the trees
before growth starts in the spring.
Cuts should be made at least 4
inches below the base of the visi-

Burn or bury knots. If they are
allowed to remain on the ground
spores may spread to nearby trees.

veloped in large limbs.

They all know Congress can't or
won't do it alone. | know and you
know that if the President puts
his shoulder to the wheel along
with Herbert Hoover and Harry
Byrd it could be done-and would
feel a lot better"
There it is-straight from the
shoulder This is a typical con-
versation 1t does not reflect a
loss of confidence in the President.
They would back him again as be-
fore. But. they very acutely want
the budget cut, and two men in
whom they have confidence-Her-
bert Hoover and Harry Byrd-after
years of study and experience have
told them again and again that this
Government is spending far too
much and taxes are far too high.
And the President, in whom their
confidence is still high has also
told them that-and all of them
have said the necessary cut could
be made without impairing any
vital Government function or
or weakening our defense. Under
such circumstances one can under
stand why they want action-and
want it from Ike.

Mr. Stevenson, who, curiously
enough, had gotten himself into a
frame Of mind toward the end of
the campaign in which he really

November This was largely due to
the greasy flattery with which his
egg-headed friends such as Mr..
Arthur SchleSinger. Jr. Chairman
Paul Butler and various potent
political altar boys among our
more conspicuous publicists kept

How To Make
Perfect Jelly
By Olive II. Cooke
4 Norucfoo 4uwac

by UllYe *. cooke
AP NeWsfeatures
IT'S JELLY-MAKING time, and
here are some tips tested by ex-
perts to make the task easier and
the results perfect every time.
1t is best to work with a small
quantity of juice when making
jelly. Two quarts of juice is a
sufficient quantity to handle at one
time. Best results are obtained in
jelly making when only small a.
mounts of juice are used.
Do not mash fruit if you wish to
have clear jelly.
The bag through which fruit juice
is strained should never be squeez-
ed, for clear juice can be obtained
only when juice is extracted by
dripping
Paraffin wax can be shaved into
the bottom of jelly glasses before
the hot jelly is poured into them
and II will rise to the top of the
glass and cover the top of the jelly.
Dip a spoon into the jelly when
it is cooking. taking out little
jelly. cool slightly and allow jelly
to drop from the side of the spoon.
If it sheets and tears off the spoon
in pieces the jelly is done.
If you prefer to melt your para
fin and pour il over the jelly, a
