Don't allow children to eat
mushrooms" that pop up on

The fruiting bodies of such
fungi as the destroying angel,
fly Agarie and false Morel
species are deadly poisonous.
Mushrooms covered with
scales, those that have the base
of the stem included in a sac,
those with milky juices and
those when mature that are
pure white and sticky to touch,
all may be deadly. Leave the

and poisonous species to ex-
perts.
Fruiting bodies of fungi that
appear on lawns come in many
colors, sizes and shapes. They
grow on decayed plant matter
in the soil. usually where rotted
roots or old stumps have been
buried. Within few days they
dry up and vanish. To make
them disappear faster, spray
with Bordeaux mixture.

For Color, Choose
Tree This Fall

When choosing a tree for
autumnal color, select it as a
sapling in the fall when its
foliage Is brilliant.
Color, says DR.. Philip L. Rus
den of the Bartlett Tree Re-
search Laboratories, is an in
herent characteristic in an
individual tree. Species retain
the same general color, but each
tree has its own built-in shad-
ing Of that color.
From Sapling stage in a nur-
sery, through juvenile growth
into maturity. that tree will
be the same shade every
autumn This is a good tip
to gardeners who plan fall
planting of trees.

DRYING Query

From Mrs. G. H., II Gallatin
street Mellow should jap
snese lantern be dried for in

Cut stems when flowers are a
vivid orange red. Split some
of the pods so that they will
curl and make interesting
shapes. Remove all leaves and
tie in small punches. Stand up
right to dry so that the pods
will hang gracefully. When dry,
the pods may be sprayed with
2 clear plastic and will last al
most indefinitely However
they last a long time without

the cause. DOT is commonly
used to control the japanese

From E. M. N, 44l0 Frank
I'm street, Kensington, Md
The lilac leaves are turning as

Lilac leaves at this season
normally are infested with pow
derry mildew. The disease can
be controlled by spraying with
sulphur, with Phaltan, with
Acti-dione PM, and with Kar-
athane. However, the lilac
bushes are practically dormant
so most gardeners make no eff
fort to stop the mildew on Ii
laos. However, use one of the
above if you wish. l prefer the
