The pruning of ornamental
shrubs, fruit trees, shade trees arm
grape vines requires mot >■ know
how than most of the other opera
tions around Lie home and farm.
It is the one operation that, is most
likely to be neglected, overdone,
or poorly done. To vise the old
adage “prune when the knife is
sharp ’ certainly has limitations as
we will see.
First I think we should remem
ber that every plant has character
represented by growth habit, leaf,
stem, bark and flower or fruit col
or. We should also remember that
pruning is » dwarfing process be
cause whenever leaves are re
moved from a plaid the power of
the plant to manufacture food is
reduced.
An understanding of the fruit
or flower bearing habits of the,
print is essential before one ran
prune intelligently. Grapes arr

season's growth which come
from bud* on canes one-year
old. Peaches are horn on wood
one-year old; apples on spurs

and older; and holly (Bwrfordl)

and allow it to dry thoroughly.
Then, apply the paste wax in the

berries are borne on wood one

peaches. This brings up the
question of when to prune.
Fruit trees and grape vines
should be pruned now.
The spring blooming woody
plants usually produce their flow
ers from buds already formed on
wood produced the previous grow
ing season and remaining dormant
over winter. Tills is true of lilac,
forsythia, wisteria, weigelia and
deutzia. The proper time to prune
these plants is just after the
blooming season because early
spring or late fall pruning would
remove the bloom
The summer blooming plants,
hybrid perpetual rosea, crape myr
tle, etc. produce their flowers on
shoots produced early in the same
or current season. Such plants re
quire pruning in winter or early
spring ir. order to produce strong
new shoots.
We might sny, then, that all
pruning should be done with great
care and understanding in order
that growth might be modified

A SAFE AND CONVI.ENT WAY
to store garden tools is to stick
them into a tray or box of sand
mixed with a small amount of

mixture cleans the tools and helps
preserve the* metal and they are
kept rust-free.

MRS. THELMA DALEY SPEAKS
Mrs. Thelma Daley, dean of

as her topic; “As A Man Thinketh,
So Is He." She spoke in terms of
youth of the world, and the many
changes taking place in society to
day. “To Be or Not To Be” is the
question that she urged. To be a
success or a failure; or to be hap
py or a menace to society should
be considered in ones thoughts.
Students were urged to take ad
vantage of the many scholarships
available.

year 1958. He produced 154 bushels
on one-half acre of well drained
sandy loam soil.
The crop was set out early in
June on high ridges about eight
to ten inches in the drill with row*
three and cue-half feet apart. He
used 500 pounds of 3-8-9 with rorax
under his crop. The crop was cul

sweet potatoes were lairi-by early
before the vines were long enough
to make vine turning a preblm.
The landowner, Mr. C. F. Foun

The curfew tolls the: knell of parting day
The lowing herd winds slowly o'er the lea
The plowman homeward clods his weary way
And leaves the world to darkness and to me. —Thomas Grey
The curfew tolled Wednesday, a week ago, at 4:30 p.m.. for. the
parting of day for one of Raleigh’s most beloved and cherished sons
-Lawrence Thompson Lightner. The time had come for Lawrence
to join the herd that slowly but continuously winds over the left. Hi*
had sown seeds of love, hope, charity and cheerfulness alone his
weary way, end the abundance in which they grew, left recollection-:
of many happy events that shall never fade from the memory of Ur
multitudes of boundless friends, companions, associates, and admirers
that he left behind.
His dynamic, jet-propelled personality had no equal among hir
contemporaries. The most sensitive, eccentric or complexed individ
ual, experienced normal complacency of his functional disorders'when
in contact with the unforgettable Lawrence T Lightner.
For more than foiu hours a- continuous line of weary and ,!u\
worn mourners passed the couch metallic casket thn l held the ja :
remains of the greatest hail-fellow-well-met that they bad ever known
which was laying at rest in the confines of his own spacious fq'ueuu
pallor.
Rich man, poor man, beggar man thief: doctor, lawyer Indian
chief—they all came and from ail walks of life*.
Lawrence was it brother In many organizations. The iinpres-a
eleventh hour eulogy conducted by local Fidelity 277 of the IBPOE of
W. and mastered by Past Exalted Ruler. Lucious Wilcox was held.
The service was in every way in keeping with the serious and
sincere affection with which he performed his professional dut :
while living. Lawrence Lightner was four or five radiant personalJtic
wrapped into one huge massive frame that well represented the agon:
that had been entrusted with such rare personal trains.
Whenever the curfew tolls for the parting of day for such a
radiant and ran- individual, the soul that’s left behind, feels a per. co
ni loss, and all become mourners In the streets.
