GARDEN CHORES
THAT NEED
ACTION NOW

Plant glads every two
weeks to insure a continu-
GUS supply Of flowers for
cutting. Ismene lilies
bloom in 10 days to 2 weeks
after planting; it pays to
save a few for planting in
case special bloom will be
needed. The house
plants can go into a pro-
tected situation in the bor-
der for their summer vaca-
ton.
Animals should have the
tops pinched to stimulate
branching. to produce bushy
plants with many flower
bearing stems.
Spray roses and peonies
to- control the thripS, those
tiny sucking insects that
sap the life from the petals
and prevent normal flower
opening. Spray every
few days, especially all buds
before they begin to open.
Protect roses, as pre-
vention is much easier than
cure, when it comes to
blackspot and mildew.
Phlox are subject to rust
and red spider mite injury:
spray with any good all
purpose garden mixture. !.
It is time to put out tuber-
ous-rooted begonia plants
for summer color in shady,
moist situations. They can
not Withstand strong winds.
Now is the time to prune
the azaleas If it is desired
because Of height. lack of
symmetry or encroachment
on other plants.
Divide and reset iris, If
needed, Immediately after
the Towering season, elm
mating borers and rot at
the same time. Fertilize
the peonies to build strong
buds for next springs
blooming. w. H. Y.

A T-shaped wall Of lattice or
vented design and electrified
with q lantern leads around the
house into the upper level Of the
garden. This wall is 5 feet high.
All the garden areas can be H.
Illuminated at night.
Knows Horticulture
Mr.. Reck's bent for masonry
has not made him careless
about his horticultural respon-
sibilities. Trained by long menu
bership in the Potomac Rose
Society, he planted only such
varieties as appear on its APP
proved and choice list, such
as Helen Traubel, Herbert
Hoover, Chrysler Imperial, etc.
He has made. a study Of chrys-
anthemums and raises only
choice stock. In q raised gar
den over, the lower level are
fine azaleas. camellias, iris. etc.
Elsewhere are dwarf evergreens,
daylilies, and ground covers
like observation-disclosures. The
lower garden is 80 feet by rs
feet and is carefully groomed.
The entire design was laid
out first by Mr.. Reck on q
drawing board several years
ago. Architectural drawing is
a sideline with him. He is ac-
complished in pen-and-ink
drawings, oil paintings and
landscape designing. His bent
for taking photographs led him
to q national prize in 1885 in
The Star snapshot contest. He
specializes also in color trans
parencies and has a multiple
viewing device. Needless to say,
he is no novice at carpentry.
Reunion Planned
The Recks plan a reunion
December 80. They have been
married AZ years and have
four children and four grand
children. One son. Walter, jr.,
is a master mason following his
fathers trade. Another son,
Russell j., is "a and in June
will get a masters degree in
Engineering from Princeton
University. Summers he works
on space and missiles projects
for Douglas Aircraft. Next fall
he will begin work on his Pho.
at Princeton.
Mr.. Reck, ST., was IS in
March. He continues active in
construction work.

A two-level garden--orna-
mented with masonry and
woodwork as only an expert
mason and lobbyist could
adorn it--has been constructed
over the last few years by Wal
ter J. Reck. retired Naval Gun
Factory employee. at his resi-
dence at 3213 Sixteenth street
NE.
Among other things. Mr.,
Reck's talents have created:
. Brick walls with his own
castings as pier cappings.
. Hexagon open tile walls
capped with limestone blocks
. Brick and cobblestone curved
border boundaries spaced by
ornamental brick ~.ers.
. A brick-inclosed flight Of
steps and risers Of brick under
q massive wood rose trellis.
. An 81a-foot diameter round
accent garden holding flowers
q miniature bridge over q tiny
pond and q tiny electrified
lighthouse.
. An outdoor fireplace with z
foot chimney, "a by 30 flrepoi
and ornamental side seats.
. A cement-and-brick patio
topped with two colors of brick
laid In basket weave design, on
which rests a large picnic table
with long side benches APP
pended.
Cast Bench Is Curved
A cement bench in the lower
garden has three cast supports
made in sculptured wooden
forms and q cast seat 61z feet
long with a. 61z-inch curve.
A retaining wall separates the
two garden levels. This rather
low wall is made Of blocks IL
inches by Is inches by 4 feet

cites creStS this wall the depth
Of the flight of steps and trellis
The hexagon tiled wall at either
| side Of the trelis is about %
inches high, each perpendicular
rank two and one-half tiles
high and the whole topped with
thin limestone blocks.
To cut the hexagon tiles with
out waste he used a high-speed
carborundum saw with water
cooled blade. The half tiles
alternate top and bottom in the
series, the two sections Of the
wall taking 80 tiles. The width
of the wall is only AZ inches
Design on Top Of Casts
The two chief piers at eithel
side Of the walk through the
hexagon tile walls are capped
with castings inset with geo.

placed first on the bottom Of
the form, upside down, wher
the casting was poured SO that
when the castings were turned
out the designs would be flush
and face UP. The castings fol-
