PARK WORK DAY SCHEDUIB FOR SATURDAY, MAR. 30 Valuable Data on Flower and Tree Planting Outlined As Far As Welfare of Plant Is Concerned, The Time to Prune is Always "When The Knife is Sharp." (Uy CLEON SANDERS) Except where specifically instructed to the contrary moot pluula received from the nurseryman will succeed iu a good garden loam. However, up to certain limits, the better the plants are ted, the better they will succeed. For fertilizer the use of barnyard manure Is best. This should be thoroughly mixed with the soil and never placed iu direct contact with the roots, or, it may be placed on top of the soil immediateThe soil should ly after planting. be well pulverized so as to fill all the 'Spaces betwene ten roots. Except in extreme cases, it Is unnecessary to remove the present soil and bring in new. This is laborious and expensive and should be avoided In extreme cases where possible. where the soil Is so gravelly that it will not hold moisture, or where a subsoil has been thrown from an excavation, this process is, of course, necessary. In such cases remove the soil to a depth of IS to 24 inches. Fill with a soil mixture such as: Va good garden loam, V4 well rotted cow manure, leaf mold or similar material. Plant-foo- d can only be absorbed by plant roots when dissolved in water if water is lacking, the presence of an abundance of fertilizer is of no help. There cn be no set rule for frequency of watering excepting to examine the soil a few Inches from the surface. Water often enough so that the scil is always moist and cool but not so as to keep the soil in a muddy condition, as this will rot the roots or weaken the plant to such an extent that disease can easily take hold. Just a little thought and common sense is needed. In watering do not sprinkle; put the hose on the ground at the base of the plant; then let the water run till the ground will hold no more. Then move to the next plant. One Buch watering is more effective than a dozen sprinklings. Never spray the tops of plants during the heat and glare of the day. Reserve that operation for before-breakfa- or after-supp- st exercise. er The drops of water act as a magnifying glass; they cencentrate the rays of the sun so effectively as to turn brown and die commonly known as water burning. Upon receiving the plants from the nursery, make sure that the roots are moist. If from delay in transportation they appear dry and withered, set them to soak overnight in a tub of water. Many sorts will pull through this process of soaking. In such a case a mere sprinkling will do no good soak them. Keep your plants out of the wind and sun and wet them as often as necessary to keep them moist When you take them out to plant, keep the roots covered with a wet burlap until the plant Is actually set in the ground. Don't dig the holes much in advance of the planting as the soil moisture will evaporate. Dig the hole rather larger than the spread (Continued on Page Ten) C. W.
