So we are about to go on a

can't be sure. I'll have to wait
for winter and full feeding time

I hear, though, that in feed
ing tests it has done great
things with cattle. A salt-kelp
mixture, they say, provides
something that makes cattle
assimilate feed better. Makes
them outgrow the cattle that
don't get the kelp.
Looks good. First thing you

LIFE IN
THE COUNTRY
The Help From KeIp Is Remarkable
BY JAMES BIRCHFIELD

If I hadn't seen it myself.
I'd never have believed that q
quarter teaspoonful of Nor
wegian kelp could do what it
did to my petunia plant.
But there it is, out on the
back terrace, and you can see
for yourself If you don't believe
me.
About a month ago we took
two petunia plants, the same
size and the same age, and set
them in two pots. We used rich
potting soil, and each plant got
the same.
The only difference was that
with one plant We sprinkled a
quarter teaspoonful of kelp on
top of the soil. Then We put
the plants out in the sun to see
what would happen.
Nothing did for a time. Then
in about three weeks something
exploded under the kelp-fed
plant. It really began to grow
and to bloom-rand it so far
outdistanced its sister that you
wouldn't know they were in the
same family. 1t has healthier
looking leaves, a richer green
color and about three times the
number of blooms. So it must
be that the kelp from the North
Sea put something into the soil
that the petunia liked.
What is more. 1t seems to be
doing the same thing out in the
garden. We spread kelp

lightly along the rows, and
we've got the most luxuriant
garden since we've been on The
40 Acres. There hasn't been
any fertilizer, other than the
kelp, spread this season.
Oh yes, I almost forgot. Early
in the year we side dressed some
of our beans with nitrate of
soda because the cover crop that
had been turned under was rob-
bing the soil of nitrogen.
But about the time we got the
nitrate of soda over two rows
we got the kelp, so we spread

When we think Of bulbs and
spring we usually think pri-
marily Of crocus. tulips and
daffodils. There are many other
bulbs which add beauty and
interest TO the rock garden or
border.
Muscan (grape hyacinth)
may be obtained In several COL
ors. The ones most often
planted are M. armeniacum
cobalt blue). M. azureum
eight blue). M. Heavenly blue,
and some other blues. In addi-
ton white and rose-colored
ones are available. Muscari
multiply fairly rapidly. In a
short while a planting Of a
dozen or two will make a fine
showing and soon blossoms will
be found here and there in the
grass where seed has fallen.
Scilla Sibirica, Siberina Squil,
Chionodoxa Lucillae GLORY Of
the Snow, Galanthus (Snow-
drops and Eranthis Hyemalis
winter Aconite) are all well
known. E. Hyemalis is most
commonly grown. 1t is yellow
and very early. The variety E.
pinnatifida has a pearly-white
flower. 1t is rare and beauti-
full. One Of the varieties of
Chionodoxa. amobilis Eeichtline.
has very large, soft cream
flowers, spotted rose-purple.
For Early Bloom
In a sheltered spot in the
rock garden where the ground
is very rich. plant many small
bulbs of Iris Reticulata. Very
light shade will suit these
March-blooming gems.
Fritillaria imperialis is most
often seen in bright red form.
This crown Imperial can be
obtained in maxima yellow, a
golden yellow form and in a
dark red and also in a brilliant
orange variety.
The smaller fritillarias are
useful in the rock garden.
F. meleagris is usually called
the guinea-hen flower or
chequered lily.
Another flower to consider is
the Erythronium (trout lilies)
They like partial shade and
rich woods earth. E. Ameri-
canum is the one best known
perhaps. 1t is often called dog
tooth violet. 1t has small lily
like flowers in light cream, yell
low, pink and rose. The mot
tied leaves add to its attractive
ness.
There are many species and
varieties to choose from. The
Californicum group are espe-
cially lovely. E. Californicum
has creamy white flowers. 4 or
5 to a stem. Do not omit the
Leucojum (Snowflakes). l..
vernum are the ones usually
planted. They seem to thrive
in this area, requiring only an
occasional thinning out.

New Work Contemplated
Drawing-board designs are
considerably ahead Of actual
construction. An elaborate
plan for the triangle bounded
by New York avenue and M
street NV. was not approved
when first presented. The de-
sign included an enclosed,
briek-paved yard. surrounded
by benches where mothers could
air their toddlers in safety.
Other designs completed or
planned include a circular walk
with bus stop at Connecticut

walk with fountain and bench
