Each kind of tree, shrub, or plant has a best time and method lor propagating it. We cannot discuss all of them here but there are a few plants that are mosi successfully propagated at this season of the year. For example, many gardeners In Eastern North Carolina are growing the evergreen species of azaleas. Of course it is easy to purchase azaleas Irom the nur series, but that will take money and it is not very difficult to grow your own if you are willing to give them some care. Azaleas may be easily propagated by cut tings taken from the plant in July. The cuttings should be made WMHIMHMMRIMWKISMWii of the present season's wood, a bout four inches long, after the base of the new stem has become partially matured. The best medium in which to root azaleas is a mixture of half pure sand and half peat moss. This material may be put in a special frame or shallow box to a depth of about six inches* in a place whef-e the frame can be shaded and watered when neces sary. The leaves should be stripped from the lower half of the cut ting, the basal end cut with a sharp knife, and dipped in a pre pared powder. Then the cuttings are Inserted In the sand and peat mixture about half their length Paint Spring's gay colors onto ail your walls for the months of indoor living ahead.

Strict at tention must be paid to shading and watering. In a few weeks roots will develop on most of the cuttings and they should be pot ted up or transplanted to a cold frame where they can be protect ed until ready to set out in a per manent place. The peach is another plant that must be propagated at this time of the year. The peach will not come true to variety from seed; therefore if you have any peach seedlings it is best to graft a known variety upon them. Since the peach cannot be grafted suc cessfully in winter like the apple, it must be budded during July or August. Contact your county agent at once for Instructions or bulletins on budding peach trees. Pecans are also budded at this time of year. A pecan does not come true to variety from seed. About 330,000 fewer workers were employed on farms in 1951 than in 1950. Indications are that the average number of workers on farms in 1952 will be even smaller. Poultry specialists at State College say that when broilers fail to grow uniformly, the poul tryman should try to find the cause of the trouble and, if pos sible, correct It. Brownie Scouts Home From Camp Seven Kings Mountain Brown ie Scouts are home from the two week Brownie Camp at Camp Ro tary, which was attended by 103 girls from ten surrounding com munities.
