The “Ethnique” area rug
which he designed for Karastan
is an excellent illustration of how
Zumsteg links the past with the
“now.” He delved into the
primitive art forms found in the
folk costumes of various Middle

the graphics for the rug design.

Grow Own
Lemons
Four years ago Jasper and
Flora Gammons brought a tiny
lemon tree back from Florida. It
was so small they brought it
back in a paper cup.
Today the little sprig has
grown into a bushy, four-foot
tree which bears about a peck of
lemons each year. The fruit is
large, very juicy and very tasty.
Mr. and Mrs. Gammons say
tney squeeze the lemons, freeze
the juice and use it throughout
the year for lemonade, pies and
other goodies.
“We didn’t know if it would
bear fruit or not,” Mr. Gam
mons said. We just used regular
fertilizer and put the tree outside
in the summer and on our
sunporch in winter. We’re going
to try an orange tree next.”
Mr. Gammons is a card

Department at the Blanket

is a spinner in the Wool Spinning
Department, also at the Blanket
Greige Mill.
