Push War on Aphids

smaller twigs and pieces mixed
with chopped leaves provide a
very fine mulch for rhododen-
drons. camellias and the like.
Such a mulch provides the nee
esSary air spaces and so far as
we know does not rob the soil
of nitrogen. Moreover, the
brown of the leaves and the
chips make a pleasing contrast
to the green foliage of the
plants.
Oak leaves are good as a
mulch. Shredded, they can be
worked in we'll around any
evergreen. If the plants to be
mulched are large the leaves
need not be shredded.
The chief objection to a Leaf
mulch is that it blows about in
the wind leaving some spots
bare and piling up in other
spots in such a way as to pre-
vent air circulation. Evergreen
boughs will help to hold leaves
in place but they are not always
neat in appearance.

A snail may be a delicacy to
some but to most gardeners he
is a Shiny. sneaky, slithering
menace.
During the day he hides UNI
der boards and rocks. but at
night comes out to eat his I'LL,
perhaps of our choicest plants.
Since the snail has a flexible
tongue with 14,175 teeth per
snail, he can do a lot of dam
age in a single night.
The common slug has rela-
tives that tackle trees and
other cousins that eat only
orchids, but large or small they
are very destructive. It's well
for us that all 10000 species
are not turned loose in our
gardens.
To get rid Of snails and slugs
use pellets containing metal
dehyde. They work fast and
are easier to use than some of
the older recommended bats.
Ask your garden supply house
for them.

be found. This undesirable wild
growth is coming from the root
stock. So if you see some strong

different than the hybrid tea

Pruning LiIucs

If your lilacs did not bloom,
there are three possible reasons,
/. 1t takes two years to pro-
duce a Towering bud so If you
prune hard every spring there
are no flower buds left to
bloom. 2. The soil may be too
acid. A light application Of

may be the answer. 8. Be sure

While the weather remains
hot and dry perhaps it is a
good time to do odd jobs
around the place like painting
the fence and strengthening or
replacing fence posts. When
the rains do come there will be
so many garden tasks.
Retain. Rose Foliage
Most rose growers are cutting
of spent blooms but during the
heat and drought Of the past
two or three weeks they are
cutting as little foliage as pos
sible. No fine long stems now
when the plants need every bit
of foliage.
Fight the Ant Battle
In wedding the garden you
may turn up lots of ants. In
such a short time they can be
all over a person. It Is well to
stop work at once and get the
chlordane bottle. We keep
chlordane made up ready to use
as a spray at a moments notice.
Fertilizing Your "Mums"
Many of our NUNS" are
planted in long rows with black
plastic used as a mulch. How
was I going to water them?
1t was simple. I dissolved a
good instant fertilizer in a
sprinkling can and in Just a
few minutes the watering and
fertilizing job was done.
1t Takes Two Sprayers
Be sure to use one sprayer
for 2-4D and other herbicides
and another sprayer for insec-
ticides. If you don't you are
headed for trouble.
