Tiger coaches continued to
send their charges through

noted that eleven players still
on the squad were hors de COM
bat and that twenty-five had
quit since the squad was assem-

problem seems to be keeping

five days as preparations are
made to meet Prairie View

Generally, it looks like it will
be a long, dry season for the

Bermuda Grass

Bermuda grass In flower and
shrub borders may be killed
with a dalapon spray. Dalapon
is a perennial grass killer and
should not affect broadleafs OF
wood shrubs. However, there is
no point in taking unnecessary
risks keep the spray off of
such plants and do not over
wet the soil. Dalapon should
not be used where the blue
grass is wanted because that
too will be killed. However. such
q spraying may be easier If the
Bermuda grass Is to be COM
pletely eliminated-after eight

House Plants

The weather has moderated
sufficiently and 1t should be
safe to place the house plants
In q protected spot in the gar
den. Even the African violets
seem to enjoy such a summer
vacation. If reporting is needed
1t is best done Just before put
ting the plants out Of doors.
Such house plants need q
sunny location, others want
shade. None should be so To-
Gated that they will be for
gotten and neglected during the
summer. Pruning, II needed, may
be done now or anytime up I'M
til midsummer. 1t should be
done early enough so that the
new growth will be well started
before time to bring the plants
indoors in mid-September.

SITUATION IMPORTANT
It's Vocation Time
For House Plants

before placing them in the
border this period is not so
noticeable. Then, too, many
plants will need dividing and
this is an opportune time in
which to do it.
In setting the pots in the
border 1t is well to dig q hole
approximately the same size as
the pot and to put broken pot,
cinders or stones in the bottom.
This will prevent the roots
from becoming rooted in the
soil below, also insure good
drainage.
The earth is than filled in
around the pot to prevent In
sects from hiding there. Also,
the area should be well mulched
not only to keep the soil from
crusting and mud from splash
ing onto the plants, 1t helps to
retain moisture and keeps the
soil cool.
Spray for Bugs
II insects are present, or
should appear, and most house
plants do have problems with
mealy bugs, spider mites, ETC.,
the plants should be sprayed
at the time Of parking in the
border and again q few days
prior to bringing indoors. Most
gardeners use malathion for
this purpose but some are
trying the systemics-metasys
tox and dimethoate. However,
these materials have not been
approved for such use and 1t
should be done with great care.
p er IN a ps some experimental
guidance will be forthcoming
soon as to which may be so
treated. Until we do have such
information malathion should
be used.
Undoubtedly there will be
periods during the summer
when some Of the plants will
be needed indoors for decora-
ton. This is no problem. The
pots may be lifted and cleaned
and the plants brought indoors
where they will probably make
a better showing than had they
been kept indoor collecting dust
and looking a bit drab.
