Garden Time By M. E. GARDNER Dept, of Hartlcaltarat Science N. C. State University Fall of the year is the bet ter season for establishing the permanent lawn using the evergreen grasses such as fes cue and bluegrass. Prepara tion of the soil is very im portant and, in many cases, is not thoroughly done. Some suggestions may be helpful. A soil test is the best to de termine the need for lime, phosphate and organic content of the soil. Since so few home owners will take the time ifor this test, we will go out on a limb and make sug gestions without the test. Prepare the soil to a depth of 4-6 inches of plowing, discing or rototilling. Then apply the following evenly over the prepared surface: 35 pounds of an 8-8-8 fertilizer (granular form better than pellets) per 1,000 square feet of area; then 60 pounds of dolomitic lime per 1,000 square feet; then about two inches of peatmoss, or very old sawdust. Work the lime, fertilizer and organic matter into the soil to a depth of at least four inches. This can best be done with a tiller or disc harrow. It is important that both lime and phosphate be incor porated in the soil root zone because neither of these im portant plant food elements, once applied, moves readily in the soil. Now you are ready .to pre pare the soil for the seed bed. It should _be raked smoothly and evenly and roll ed, if possible, to firm the soil. If you aTe lucky enough to have a good shower, it will do the job of settling for you. Or you can irrigate. After the job of settling the soil has been accomplish ed, rake lightly and you are ready for seeding. Seeding can be done by hand or with a hand (Cyclone) seeder. Re gardless of the method used, the seeding should be uni form. This can best be ac complished by dividing the seed, for a given area, into equal parts. Sow half in one direction and cross-seed the other, half. For fescue, use about three pounds per 1,000 square feet; for bluegrass about Itfc pounds per 1,000 square ifeet. Rake seed in lightly mulch with clean grain straw and water. Buy only certified seed and the best available. Soil fumigation will pay dividends as you can prac tically eliminate weeds, "wire, grass,” grubs, Japanese beetles and other soil-borne troubles. If you decide to fumigate, it should be done after the first steps of seed bed preparation —billing, discing, etc., and be fore seeding. Follow the manu facturers’ directions when fu migating the soil. Professionals: Military. Civilian. JBr —.Jgsk Tlw U.S. Army Rasarva. Roland Garrett Seal Chainnan GREENVILLE Eastern North Carolina’s “Number One Citizen of the Albe marle,” Roland I>. Garrett of Elizabeth City, has been nam ed chainnan of the annual Christmas Seal Campaign of Eastern Tuberculosis and Res piratory Disease Association. Garrett was honored as “Mr. Albemarle” by the Eliza beth City Cosmopolitan Club, joined by other organizations and citizens in making the honor possible. Garrett, a retired postmaster, is presi dent of the Albemarle Sav ings and Loan Association, on the board of directors of the Economic Development Coun cil (serving 10 counties), a director of the Industrial Bank, chairman of the Pas quotank - Camden Public Li brary, treasurer of the Albe marle Orthopedic Clinic, a trustee and member of the board of deacons of the First Baptist Church, on the Red Cross and Kiwanis Club boards of directors, a mem ber of the Salvation Army advisory board, and has been very active for many years with the work of both local and state tuberculosis and respiratory disease associa tions. Garrett will take over his duties immediately, according to Or. Karl Van Horn of Washington, N. C., president of the Eastern TB-RD Asso ciation. “The Christmas Seal Cam paign will be launched on November 10,” Garrett said, “and this year we promise a real surprise when the Christmas Seal letter is opened.” The Eastern TB-RD Asso ciation, which serves Cho wan County, is one of 10 such affiliates throughout North Carolina, is supported exclu sively through the annual Christmas Seal sale and, of course, is a non-profit organi zation. The program empha sis is one of research and 'medical education against the growing rates of air pollu tion, emphysema, lung can cer, chrcnic bronchitis, as thma, the c'mmon cold and naturally works toward the eventual eradication of tuber culosis. As our climate be comes more and more pollut ed, the dramatic increases in all forms of respiratory dis eases continue to soar. Garrett explained his dedi cation to tuberculosis and respiratory disease work this way. Said Garrett, “Our na tional chairman for this year’s drive, Gail Patrick Jackson, was the executive producer of the “Perry Mas on” show. Mrs. Jackson,” said, “watched helplessly while Ray Collins, who play ed Inspector Tragg in the series, lost his appeal for life tc emphysema. ‘lLater,” Gar rett said, “Mrs. Jackson saw William Tabnan, who appear ed as District Attorney Ham ilton Berger, publicly blame cigarette smoking for his last mile. Gail Jackson chose to become our 1970 national hon orary Christinas Seal chair man as the most fitting way she could pay tribute to her deep friendships with these two men.” Garrett added, “What better reason could 1 name to choose to serve as Christmas Seal chairman tor the Eastern TB and RD Asso ciation?” Illness Is Fatal To E.
