Ferns Have Place
In Every Garden

when commercial growers make
the bulk of their shipments.
Runner-type or spreading ferns
seem to move successfully at
any time of the growing season.
Those with a crown are a bit
more temperamental.
The above are rather general
statements and will of necessity
be modified in the handling
of some of the more unusual
ferns. The polypody, the walk
ing fern, the purple cliff brake,
and possibly the royal fern are
the more likely to require spe-
cial conditions and handling.
At the other extreme, we might
point out that some take so
kindly to our gardens that they
will crowd out other plants un-
less ruthleSsly restrained. The
bracken is the most common
example of the latter.
Fern Valley Culture
Because ferns are not well
known to most gardeners 1t is
suggested that every gardener
who is interested in their cul-
ture might well pay a visit to
Fern Valley" at the National
Arboretum. There you may
see several score of kinds Of
ferns growing in suitable sit
uations. Fern Valley was
planted by a committee from
the National Capital Garden
Club League and was jointly
sponsored by the Fern Society
of America.
This marvellous display of
ferns not only shows how they
grow as to height and texture
but also as to form and spread.
Here you should note some Of
our more common kinds such
as the Christmas fern, the
Maidenhair, the Royal fern,
New York fern, and many
many others.
Do not overlook the Bracken,
because in the smaller garden
it can become q nuisance but
on a dry bank among the rocks
it is an excellent ground cover,
Visit Fern Valley in the
spring, in the summer and in
the fall to get a full appraisal
of the ferns, and if you are in
tereSted in the evergreen kinds
it will pay to see them in early
winter. Select those kinds
which will fit into your garden
most effectively and then order
them from firms that specialize
in ferns-there are several in
the East.

Lift and Divide
Your Iris Plants

The tall-beaded iris should
be lifted and divided If too
crowded or if infested with
borers.
New varieties should be
ordered for early planting if
the plants are to be big enough
to bloom next season. Be sure
to order the better varieties
for a display that will justify
the name Of rainbow iris"

Path Undercover

When making paths of
gravel. bluestone, tanbark or
like material, first spread a
cover of plastic or roofing pa
per, or lay down a sterilant
over the area, to keep weeds
and grass from taking over.

Fruits Pests

AS fruits reach the ripening
stage it is inadvisable to spray
or dust with DDT. which is in
soluble in water. Either use
some material that is more
easily removed in washing or,
use flour or some other harm
less material, which will act as
a repellant.

Care for Nuns
REQUIRED Now

1t is not safe to pinch
chrysanthemums after the first
week in July since it will delay
Towering. The azaleamums, or
cushion type do not need pinch
ing. Most other types flower
rather late anyway and to
pinch increases the risk of frost
injury to the flowers. Be pre-
pared to stake the taller grow
ing varieties as they grow.
Do not wait until they are flat
tened by fall rains.

Without a doubt ferns are
one of the most neglected, per-
haps we should say overlooked
Of the plants which we might
use in our gardens. They are
not exotic or strange, they are
just not considered. Actually
there are some 40 or so species
that are native so we cannot
say they are not adapted.
They come in a wide range
of sizes, from a few inches to
over 6 feet in height. They
will grow in sun or shade, a
few want a sweet soil but most
are very tolerant. Some need
considerable moisture but most
do not: a few will grow in
hard, dry soil. Then there are
the evergreen ferns but most
kinds die down in the winter
Dainty to Massive
Ferns may serve many useful
purposes in the garden, from
ground covers to hiding spring
boomers as they die down.
Some ferns are dainty and add
a delicate touch to the ap-
pearance while others are heavy.

Ferns thrive best in light
soils well supplied with leaf
mold or compost. Peat moss, il
not too finely pulverized, is
an acceptable substitute. Many
gardeners like to mix vermic-
ulite or perlite with the soil
as well as provide an ample
supply of leafmold for each
planting. However, the general
recommendation is to scoop out
a shallow bed and to place the
fern clump or crown in the
center, spreading the roots'out
carefully before working the

preston of "heresy" ever
arose in Europe. Our Found
ing Fathers wisely declared
the Government incompetent
in religious matters.
But Europe for long cen
turtles was accustomed to the
idea of the religious and po-
litical functions blending in
one. Ii had its roots in the
Old Testament and Jewish
kings like David were reli-
gious as well as political rul-
ers.
This concept of union of
Church and State was COM
mon both to Catholics and
Protestants. Luther, for in
stance, claimed the political
ruler had to promote the
preaching of Scripture, sup
press heresy and if necessary,
compel his subjects to hear
the word of God.

ONE OF THE considera.
tons that Rome weighs when

The Vatican, therefore, is

voice should come through
quietly, reasonably, and cour-

1T MUST BE SAID that
though we do not pray Fri
marily for benefits, many re-
wards will follow if prayers
are properly said. One great
benefit is the knowledge that
one shares with his spouse
the secret impulses of his in
terror life. Also, through pray
er one discovers what his
spouse is really like and his
est I'm and love for her
should naturally grow.
Couples who pray together
enjoy a cloSeness that no
other souls enjoy. Prayer to-
gether said properly can well
put an end to discord which
exists between couples. Pray
er together can change the
whole life of a couple.
Other couples will want to
initiate them: to ask for their
help to get closer to Christ.
What a pity that so many
couples do not know how to
get the most from the Sacra.
ment of m%atrimony. They
know how to get graces from
the Sacramento of Penance
and the Eucharist but fail
so often in Matrimony.
cONJUCAL PRAYER is the
key to innumerable graces.
If all Christian couples would
pray together there would be
a prodisious growth of JOY,
love and grace in the world
from holy and happy family
life.

The type of facility Hyde farm
ers have been erecting will come

change has been made to encourage
farmers to erect bins on their
farms to store part of their grain
on the farm rather than unloading
on an overrun market during
