Green Thumb Tips
*Tls sad but true that most
gardeners crowd their plants
unmercifully. Whether thf*y
are vegetables or flowers,
plants need room if they are
to develop as they should and
produce their best. .
For instance, tomato plants
that are trained to stakes will
prodtfce more' fruits and larg
er ones If spaced 2 1/2 feet
apart. Closer spacing means
that each plant shades the next
ohe and competes with it for
nourishment, so down gjoes fruit
production.
Tall-growing zinnias are an
example of flowers which "wfll
bloom much more and have
larger individual blossoms If
thinned to stand 2 1/2 to 3 feet
apart. Every other plant a
gardener grows also will profit
from being allowed ample room
to grow.
If the seeds you planted don't
always come up, consider the
circumstances before you
damm the source of the seeds.
Did you read the directions on
the packet regarding planting
depth? Did you follow them?

Fort Jackson - Army Pvt.
Charles R. Stone 20, son of
Mr. and Mrs. Ransom G.
Stone, Route 1 , Louisburg, N.
C.# completed a light-vehicle
driver course at Fort Jackson,
S. C? April 29.
Stone was trained in the oper
ation and maintenance of mili
tary vehicles up to an including
the two and one-half ton truck.
He entered the Army in Jan
uary of this year and completed
baslp training at Fort Jackson.
Stone, a 1964* graduate of
Louisburg Hlgfi School, was en
gaged in farming before ent
ering the Army.
Many gardeners, especially new
ones , plant seeds too deep.
What was the soil -tempera
ture at planting time? The
soil moisture condition? When
soils are too cold and too wet
seeds often rot before they
an sprout When soils are too
dry seeds often sprout then
die because the newly formed
rootlets dry out for lark of
moisture. ^
So you know the wishbone
flower, the proper name of
which is torenla? It can be
t;rown in either sun or.shadeJ
forms little bushes so is as
attractive grownxln pots as it
is in a bed or border, and may
have flowers of blue or white
or both colors in the same
bloom . "
Parties Can Go To The Outdoors Now
Before too long the weather
will permit outdoor birthday
parties for the kiddles. Thi
means even more to mothers
than to children, for it cuts
down chances of broken lamps,
stained carpets and smashed
ash trays? that seem thenatur
a> result of a party held Insihfe
the home.
It also makes possible a larg
er variety of games and enter
tainment. For instance, potv.
carts for'- ftfe^young tots and
sum turning for the older chil
dren.
Favors that*, provide party
entertainment in a two-fold
way are Ideal model airplanes,
to be built at the party, with
a prize for the one that flies
highest, pr stays in the air
longest, are fine ftSr tuns .
. For the little girl*, .1 olor ]
contest" is an old favorite.
Something that is bound to . be !
a success. , is a small favor.
Then, for entertainment, pro
vide the very, young ladies with
a table of cut-^CUuvers and give
a prize for the most attrac
tive arrangement.
The old standard, ice cream
and cake refreshments, are still
[
a big favorite. However, it
seems a good idea to serve
something a bit lighter. Try
orange juice or grape juice
with the birthday cake. There's
less chance of having a sick
I child on your hands.
An expert on successful part
ies for children >ays the secret
is to provide directed enter
tainment and recreation for the
children from the time they
arrive to the time they depart.
Try Anything
