Long Nights Of Winter Good Garden Plan Time Those long nights of winter are excellent for planning next year's gardening and landscaping activities. Why not prepare a check list of things you have and things you might need? Here are some items to consider, as suggested by North Carolina State university horticulturists: Seed, vegetable and flower; plants, vegetable and flower; ornamental trees and shrubs needed in the landscape; ground covers as a grass substitute and to prevent erosion on slopes and terraces: small fruits—strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, elderberries and grapes: tree fruits and nuts — apples, peaches, cherries, pears, plums, pecans, black walnuts. Chinese chestnuts and filberts. Rakes, hoes, spading fork, shovel, spade, hand plow, rototiller (optional), power mower, spraver. duster, wheel barrow, stakes, heavy string and hose and spinner for irrigation. dry place when not in use.

BREAKS HIP Mrs. Johnny James is ii South Hill Community Hospita with a broken hip. While you have the time, plan vour vegetable garden on paper. This will accomplish two things; in the first place, you can provide the necessary vegetables for the family's table use and for freezing and canning: and secondly, it will permit vou to rotate crops in your garden site. It is best to rotate garden sites each vear hut. for most people, this is not possible. However, with a plan, vou can rotate crops in vour present garden site as it is not a good idea to plant the same crops in the same area year after year. When preparing vour plan, place the perennial crops to one side of the garden so thev will not interfere with cultivation of the annuals. Such crops include asparagus, rhubarb, strawber ries and blueberries. It is time to have your soil tested, applv the lime and phosphate indicated, and plunder. I^eave in rough fallow until spring planting time. Alternate freezing and thawing will provide a good fed. « tn«f)'Rfter all. is <me» ofThe most'important steps in having a good garden. If you are lucky enough to have a supply of animal manure, applv liberally, and turn under with the lime and phosphate. The value of Tar Heel agricultural exports represents about 30 per cent of the total cash .receipts from farm l marketings, according to North 1 Carolina State University econ omists. «r Use Proper Materials For Hanging Baskets Hanging baskets are among the most popular containers for house plants, and two of the secrets to satisfaction with yours is using the best material for the basket and putting the right kind of plants in them. Plants of drooping growth habit are best suited as the stems falling over the sides of the basket display the flowers and foliage to best advantage. Baskets may be made of various materials but those made of galvanized wire are the most popular. They are light, last for many years, and can be hung in many places—balcony, patio, pergola or other suitable locations. It is better to line the baskets with a thick layer of sphagnum moss and then fill with good soil. Some plants may be set around the perimeter of the container and others in the renter. Water thoroughly and hang in the selected spot. It is necessary that the soil be kept moist at all times, otherwise, the plants will not give maximum performance. Perhaps the most convenient watering method would be to immerse the basket in water and let drain before hanging back in position. North Carolina State University specialists recommend the use of a high analysis (20-20 20) water soluble fertilizer. This will give quick response and may also be used on other pot plants and ornamentals. Use according to instructions printed on the container. The plants selected may be some of those that you use in your summer flower beds. Each basket may be planted with one variety or you may use mixed varieties to suit individual tastes. When dwarf plants are used, they may be set in the center of the container and those of drooping habit around the perimeter. Some of the following plants do well in baskets — you may have others in mind that are equally as suitable: Ivy Geranium (Peltatum); ordinary garden Geranium: Fuchsia: Marguerite: Ageratum: Sweet Alvssum (Lobularia): Vinca major variegata (a trailing type of Periwinkle*: Nepeta hedgeraoea variegata. (Ground Ivy); Ix)belia: Petunia: Heliotrope; Nasturtium. Phlox Drummondii (annual phlox): Verbena: and Boston fern.
