Unless it is handled properly
foundation planting under a
low. overhanging roof can be a
problem. A 1-foot overhang
presents no difficulties, but
those of Q or 3 feet do. The
latter are wide enough to pre-
vent all but the heaviest, wind
driven rains from penetrating
the ground close to a house.
If your home has wide over
hanging roof and yodr founda-
ton planting is set close to the
house, cover the spaces between
your planting with a 2-inch
layer of mulch (rotted manure
or decomposed leaves to con-
serve moisture.
But don't assume that mulch
alone will keep the ground per-
manently moist. Mule h d
ground will, of course. stay
damp longer than unmulched.

Blood worms are the best bait
right now. You'll hang your

Try tying it on your line with
a rubber band. When it hangs.
stretch the band with your rod
tip and line and release it sud-

will bounce your sinker loose
In any event only the band will
break and all you'll lose is the
sinker.
