Yon And Social SecuritY Q. I became disabled 4 months ago and filed an application. ^Jy wife and I separated a couple of years ago and our minor children live with her.

Muy >, What we are discussing this lime will apply to azaleas, rho dodendrons, camellias and gaid- onin.s. It is a common trouble with these plants and one that is not ea.sy to clearly define in a short article. We will call it iron defi ciency chlorosis and attempt to clarify in simple terms. First, the importance of iron in the soil. Although iron is consid ered to be a minor element, it is es.sential for the manufacture of chlorophyll, the green coloring matter in plants. If the iron becomes deficient, it is expressed as chlorosis in the leaves causing them to become yellowish, except along the mid rib and leaf veins. In advanced stages, the green color may dis appear from them Id-rib and veins and the entire leaf becomes al most white. , can be done by using sulphur to ' Icwer the pH and lime to raise it. This procedure will require some time to overcome the chlorosis. ' but is the better method because the roots will then be able to absorb the iron from the soli. There is also a quick method of overcoming the trouble; by foliar feeding. In this method chelated (iron chelate) iron is used as a spray. Chelating changes the iron into a soluble form which is quickly absorbed by the leaves and stems when applied as a spray. This material canbt* purchased from your local garden supply center with full instructions for mixing and applying. It is sold under different brand or trade names. Just be sure that you ask for iron cheiatc because there are also other chelated materials: such as zinc. Vote W WILLIAM G.

The pH of the soil Is too high. In other words, the calcium (lime) content is too! high and the soil too sweet. All of the plants in this group like an acid soil, the azaleas and rliodo- dendrons being a little more sen sitive than the camellias and gar denias. -jN'R cd age gaii the ord ANNOUNCEMENT fl’Pt Iron is available to the plant : at a pH range of 5.5 to 6.0. At 6.5' the iron availability is reduced and at 7.0, it drops off sharply. EFFECTIVE SATURDAY, MAY 4 To correct the iron deficiency two things can be done; have your soil tested and adjust the pH to the 5.5 to 6.0 range.
