Company of Chicago report that if
one parent has large eyes, the baby
will probably have the same. If only
one parent has slanting eyes, the chill
dren's eyes are not likely to have this
shape, although il may appear in the
next generation. If either parent has
long lashes, there is every possibility
thar the child will also have them.

Garden work moves into high
gear this month. Not only do we
have the chores of moving the
lawn and getting seeds and
plants into the ground, but we
also have to begin our insect and
disease control program.
In April we finish the planting
Of dormant trees, shrubs and
roses as well as perennial plants.
We also begin sowing seeds Of
the harder flowers and vege-
tables.
Perhaps the soil viii be warm
enough by the end Of the month
to put out some Of the more ten
der crops. such as tomatoes and
beans. and zinnias and marigolds.
These latter should not be
planted in a cold soil.
Butterfly Bush-Crepe Myrtle
Now that the likelihood Of a
severe freeze is past we might
well prune the butterfly bushes
and the crepe myrtle. Cut them
back rather severely If you would
have fine large truSses Of bloom.
These two produce their flowers
on current growth and so we
should also fertilize rather heav-
lily II they are to have the desired
flowers. Both of these plants
tend to become bare-legged I'M
less given an annual pruning.
Do not hesitate to cut them back
severely If they have grown tall
and leggy.
Have Tools, Supplies Ready
The garden tools should all be
In good shape for spring activity.
II this has not been taken care
Of 1t should not be postponed an
other day. The seeds, fertilizer.
peatmoss and all other materials
needed for the garden should be
on hand ready for use.
Plants to Set Out
Cabbage and broccoli plants
may be set out now. 1t is pref
cradle to use the "yellows" re-
sistant varieties of cabbage, such
as Golden Acre and Early Jersey
Wakefield. There are several
varieties Of broccoli. Most gar
deners plant the Green Sprout-
Ing. There are two types OF
onions that may be planted now:
ID Sets which produce bulbs for
winter use. and co onion plants
OF the Spanish type. Both may
be used for green onions; both
may be left to produce bulbs
The Spanish type bulbs should
be used during the summer and
early fall as they do not store
for long.
Cool weather Flowers
Hardy flower seeds may be
eown in the border where they
are to grow. These include the
annual sweet alyssum. snap
dragons, and similar cool
weather flowers.
Remove Mulches
The mulches should be re-
moved from the bulb and peren-
NAL beds. Take them of on a
cloudy day so that tender foliage
will not become sun-burned
Similarly. remove the mounds
from fall-planted roses, being
careful not to break of the new
shoots.

Or Rhododendrons

Fascinating new hybrid rho
iodendrons and colorful new aza-
leas can be grown successfully
in this area. The plants offer an
exciting event in gardening for
those who have not tried them,
Once planted and mulched, they
require very little maintenance
after they are established, while
they produce spectacular masses
of bloom regularly. year after
year.
Colors range from white and
pink through lavender, orange
to deep reds.
There is a wide range Of
hardness in both rhododendrons
and azaleas according to variety.
Territorially. azaleas can be
grown in a wide area. With a
little help in acidifying the soil,
they will flourish. Select those
which are advised for this To-
cality and have been tested for
hardness in this area. A visit
to the National Arboretum is
helpful.
A collection Of rhododendrons
and azaleas which mature at
different heights provide luxuri-

property line. while they also
may be used as foundation
plants. hedges. or individually,
as specimen plants. Some speci-
men azaleas produce a solid

feet or more in diameter when
they mature.

tive it should be sprayed on
these trees and shrubs when the
first blooms are beginning to
open, Some advocate a second
application as the last blooms
open.
Label Your Paintings
Keep the flowers and vege-
tables in your garden accurately
labeled with tags or stakes that
are easy to read. In that way
you learn to know your plants
and can make accurate COM
parsons with other varieties.
Good durable labels and stakes
are easily obtained today through
garden supply stores or speciality
Arms.
Camellias Exceptionally Fine
The camellias are making an
unusually fine display this
spring. many gardeners having
had blooms on their plants for
two or three weeks.
How Deep for Camellias?
In setting out lockwood and
camellia plants make certain
that they will be no deeper after
settling than they were when
growing in the nursery. II there
is any doubt as to how deep they
should be. 1t is better to err on
the high side rather than the
low.
Plant Glad Corms
As soon as the soil Is dry
enough to be worked we should
start planting glad corms.
Paintings at 10 days throughout
the season is necessary II we are
to have a continuous supply of
cutfiowerS. The cormels. those
tiny. hardshelled bullets that
we dug last fall should go into

Time the Arrival Of Glad Blooms
BY W. H. YoUNGMAN

Most gardeners plant their
|gladiolus corms when the ground
|is ready and they have the time
Ito nut them into the trenches.
But. glads have q fairly definite
period Of time between planting
and Towering and. II you want
Ito have your display at its best.
you should do a little figuring.
For example. the gladiolus
|hobbyist knows that this years
show will be on the 9th Of July.
also he knows that each variety
has o definite period between
planting and Towering. and so
with his pencil and q piece of
paper he will determine the
number Of days before the 9th
|of July when each variety
should be planted.
That's for the flower show. II
you have some special event
coming UP. you might well select
the varieties you want and find
out the time you will need to
plant .them so that they will
provide the cutfiowers wanted.
II Can Vary Considerably
It is not quite that simple, OF
course. because our seasons vary
somewhat. A cold backward
spring will delay blooming q few
days beyond the normal time.
And, q hot moist growing season
can move 1t up q bit. But in gen.
|eral they viii flower within q few
days Of the number Of days
shown in the catalogue. But, you
will need to watch that number
III your special event is early in
the summer.
There are some varieties that
will flower in 10 to 80 days. the
majority flower in 80 to 80, but
there are a number that take
more than 100 days.
The miniatures as q whole
flower earlier than the tall snowy
varieties.

woods should have their trunks
protected from sun-scald by
wrapping with cheesecloth or
some other thin material.
Systemic POisOns
Gardeners are likely to hear
about systemic poisons for suck
ing insects this spring. IN
doubtedly the use Of such ma
terial would be helpful to the
gardener. but these materials
are new and not widely tested
under garden conditions. It is
suggested that they be tried on
q limited scale this spring and
then only on flowers and shrubs
not on vegetables.
Use 2, AID Spray With Care
While 2, AID Is still the best
of the weed killers for broad
leaved weeds, it must be used
with great care. 1t should never
be applied on a windy day be-
cause the volatile spray may be
carried for quite a distance and
injure valuable plants. Use q
coarse spray under low pres
sure. Apply when temperatures
are above 70 degrees and rain
is unlikely for at least IL hours.
2, AID works best when plants
are young and in active growth.
Loosening Clay Soil
It is rather difficult to add
enough sand to a heavy clay to
make 1t loose and friable. 1t is
much better to use compost, leaf
mold. peatmoss, sawdust, or
some other vegetable material.
II the supply is limited mix only
into the top 3 or 4 inches.
The heavier q soil the more
important that it be kept we'll
Imulched throughout the growing
season.
Fertilizer Caution
Heavy applications Of COM
mercial fertilizers more than
10 to is pounds per 1000 square
feet should not be made to
garden plots or flower beds at
the time Of soil preparation.
There is too much likelihood of
the nitrogen being leached away
before the plant roots can take
it up.
Blight Control
1t is reported that fire blight
OF pears. some varieties of
apples. cotoneaster and firethorn
can be controlled with the anti.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1957-04-07

1T is far more important to the
size and quality Of the bloom.
Glads do best in q loamy soil
one that has had plenty of COM
post spaded into 1t. Also, they
need an ample supply Of moisture
during the growing season II the
florets are to be properly spaced
and II you want to obtain the
maximum number Of flower buds.
A week of dry weather may
even cause the tip of the spike
to bend or twist. Lack Of ade-
uuate moisture for a longer period
than one week is likely to result
in a short chubby flower spike.
Most gardeners prefer to plant
their gladiolus corms In q trench
at least four inches deep, deeper
in sandy loan. This is to give
them some stability so that the
spike. fully loaded with large
florets. will not lean over. It
saves a lot of stalking and tying
OF course. the trench is only
partially filled with earth after
planting. AS the shoots grow
more and more. soil is pushed
into the trench until 1t is filled.
Mulching Proves Of Value
Experience has shown that the
bed should be well mulched after
the trench is filled. A good thick
mulch win keep the weeds down,
help moisture to penetrate and
keep the soil cool for good
growth.
The gladiolus lobbyist nor
mally spades about five pounds
of superphosphate into the soil
at the time Of soil preparation.
After the shoots are well up he
begins q monthly feeding with
5-l0-5 or some similar analysis
fertilizer. This may be scattered
along the rows and watered into
the soil. II growth is slow or
there is any indication that there
is q lack Of nitrogen q supple
mental application Of sulphate
of ammonia or nitrate of soda
should be given. This is most
easily applied by dissolving a
handful Of one Of these in a
sprinkler and then pouring it
along the row. a sprinkler canful
should be adequate for a 20-foot
row Of glads.
DOT Combats Thrips
Insects may be a problem in
the gladiolus planting although
II the corms were treated with
DOT before planting the thrips
should not be as troublesome.
However. the grower Of show
flowers does not take chances
and sprays his plants from the
time the buds form until they
are ready for cutting. DOT is
one material. but many are now
using the combination Of Mala-
thion and Methoxychlor. One
spraying a week is adequate.
