MILK IS FOR THIS BIRD-US. Navy Chief Radioman

Glenn set out to get photographic evidence proving that some

“The weeds are about to take \

this time of year in most sections
of the state.
What about “weed killers”?
.Many of them are good but some
are so highly selective that they
must be used with great care. Well
known 2, 4-D amine salt will kill j
most of the broad leaf weeds in the |

cause excessive damage to flowers i
and shrubs. For this reason 1 am

[or old hay. On the other hand peat
* moss, sawdust and cotton seed
hulls will form an almost impervi
ous layer over the area covered.
Peat is an excellent organic ma
terial and I would rather work it
into the soil than use it as a mulch.
It will pay you to heavily mulch
your tomatoes regardless of wheth
er or not they are stalked. The
same is true of azaleas, camellias,
peppers, raspberries and many oth
er home garden plants. The best
treatment that you can give your!
raspberries is to mulch them with
strawy manure up to 20 tons per
acre.
Before the mulching material is
applied, it is a good plan to clean
away all grass and weeds, fertilize
the plants, if needed, then apply
your mulch. This will really make
your plants happy if you give them
the needed water and protection
from insect and disease pests.
Timely hints: Keep after the in
sects and diseases. Pinch back your
'chrysanthemums to cause branch
ing and root some cuttings. Use
sharp, clean sand, shade, keen
moist and protect from the wind.
1 Watch your plants. Any that are
in apparent good health but are |
showing signs of yellowing may 1
need quickly available nitrogen. I
