I "* ! WHAT IS HOME IcggSSGARDEN?. Spring Feeding of Plants

j Trees, shrubs, flowers and lawns! | need periodic feedings to keep them ip best growing condl lon. Tim proper food for plants i.s one which contains all the necessary. ;c loments of growth and it is best, that it be in u balanced form. Fortunately for the owner of a I city or town home there* are nbw .readily available commercially pre-' 'pared plant foods which are easy I to apply, convenient to handle, not I very expensive, and which, through j experiment, have been established ,te contain all the necessary elements for plant growth. This is! ■the ’ype of plant food most prac tical for the city home owner to lU.se and one which wilt serve hie [purpose to perfection. Shrubs Ou established shrub plantings apply the- food in the spring before the- soil is worked. Where maximum results are desired It is advis-. able to feed the shrubs six weeks' latter the initial application. For newly planted shrubs it is advis abb* that the food be mixed with the soil at tile time they are plantled. T rees Usually trees are left to grow .the best, they can under the cir Icumstances, but periodic feedings will promote a healthy growth and I’.eep the trees in much better conI dirion. Established trees need be I fed but once a year in the following manner: ’ the month. Short talks were given I by Rev. B. H. Franklin, pastor of the Methodist church and by Rev. | Harry Thompson, teacher of the ' class. Devotionals were conducted at , the close of the business session by Mrs. Merlin Doan. A social hour followed and two contests were enjoyed. In the fisherman contest, Alva Diwson was the winner. A baseball contest was conduct <d with Dr. Harold DeVor and Dr. .1. G. Neptune, the cap ains. Dr. ' DeVor’s group were the winners [ at the close of the contest. A The program committee for the J eeting last night included Mr. and Mrs. Lowell Smith and Mr. and Mrs. Harry Crownover, and the I menu committee comprised the Mesdames Herman Myers. Alva Lawson and Robert Mills. BAPTIST WOMEN HAV£ GOOD MEETING lhe Ba tisl Women's Missionary Society met at the home o. Mrs [Alva Baker. Thursday afternoon. . The home mis ion book.

Make holes in the noil with n I crowbar or <>:her sh,rp instrument' to a depth of 12 to 18 inches under the drip of the branches of the lie,. Fill the holt-s half full of plant food and then complete »he tilling w'itb soil. In case of newly planted trees it is advisable to mix ihe plant food with the soil at tin* time of planting. Perennials Aaurfaee application of plant food to the perennial bed in the spring will be found very henficial i in promoting vigorous growth of ; the plants. On th<* plants' vigor de-1 pends tlie size and number of flow-1 era produced, and as perennials I are gross feeders it is necessary that sufficient plant food he given ; I them from time to time to prevent i the soil from becoming exhausted. ; Lawns In nuking new lawns it is advis : aiile incorporate tlie plant food | ’’in the soil a few days before time! of seeding if possible. For old-es-1 ablished lawns an early spring j feeding of plant food at Hie rate I recommended by the manufacturer! will lx* found very beneQclal in pro-! moling root growth and establish | ; ing a thicker lawn. Feeding lawns; w ill lie found to promote tlie growth ' 'of the grass sufficiently so lhe grass; itself will have a tendency to < rowd out weeds, at least the thickening of the turf will prevent furth•: er inroads of these detestable; ! pes s.
