Folsom jAl REVIEW of the research program at Utah State University with respect to flowers and ornamental plants was initiated at meeting on the campus recently and the results should, in time, bring benefits to every gardener in Utah. Staff members of the university, headed by Dr. Wynne Thorne, director of the USU StaAgricultufltKExperiment tion, met witnrPprPsenta fives of garden clubs and trade groups concerned with plants, to discuss research needs. By free discussion and cooperative planning, he said, the efforts of USU can be made of maximum benefit to the people of this state. Suggested plans for research on lawns, flowers, ornamental shrubs, trees and related plant materials were discussed, along with present research programs. Trials at the Farmington Experimental Farm were also told, with other items of discussion including chlorosis, winter hardiness, plant performance in different types of soils and widespread testing. The committee is expected to meet again this summer. i ., SEE and Utah State Plans Research To Help State's Gardeners IX ASSOCIATION You too can strike mission; Mrs. Claud L. Shields, Utah Rose Society; Fred Utah Floral Assn. They will serve as an advisory committee to the university group. Mr. Feulner. speaking for the garden clubs and trade group, expressed the hope that this is the beginning of a very fine program for plant improvement which will be of assistance to every home gardener in Utah. Augs-burge- AS SOON AS the ground is dry enough to work, you should transplant any perennials which have become crowded. The general rule is to divide fall blooming plants in the spring and those which bloom in the spring should be eared for in the fall. There are exceptions to this rule such as iris and oriental poppies. Trees, shrubs and roses should all be planted as soon as possible. Early planting gives them a much better start before hot weather sets in. If you like fruit as well as lovely blossoms plant a dwarf fruit tree. It will be attractive all year long as well as supplying a harvest of delicious fruit. When purchasing seeds for your garden try something different. For instance, you might like the single flowered aster called Single Rainbow. The blooms are widely varied in color, with yellow centers and have much the same appearance as big painted daisies. In zinnias, you might plant the Gailiardia Flowered or Navajo mixture, which has medium sized flowers with the base of the petals a contrasting color to the tips, or the Zinnia Linearis, which has orange blooms, striped yellow. Another unusual flower is Bartonia Stella Polaris with its blooms in light jcllSw. star-shape- with these Western Gardening Twins PAY DIRT (6-10-- 4) Tbs premier FERTILIZER FOR TIFUL BEAU- FLOWERS LAWNS, AND GARDENS.
