Myr. Mannella Has a’ Recipe To Prod His Fruit Trees When They Start Loafing

M. A. MANNELLA, 1236 Edgemont ave., is proud of his quantities of climbing roses. But I found even more interesting his management of a large city yard (120 by '150) where every square inch is

Mr spring. Mrs. Mannella uses the leaves while they are young and tender few plants are left to go to they explained. The seed plants itself and by fall they have a fresh crop. The leaves have a delightful nutty taste. Just so his ground will be fully occupied all season Mr. Mannella has a row of kale seedlings growing by the fence. These he’ll later transplant whenever an early crop comes out. J » . . ANY DAY now that you're out of a garden job (don’t shoot, please) you can trim your spirea and forsythia. Don’t shear their poor tops straight off unless you like a flight deck effect and practically no flowers. Do head branches back at irregular lengths, cutting just above a leaf bud. That's where new growth will start and next year's flowers come on this new wood.

To renew neglected shrubs, better take out old stalks at the base of the plant. Saves time, too. You don't have to make so many
