many that you may plant for
an interesting garden of color
and form. The above would
make an interesting collection.
Agapanthus--wldely known as
the “Blue Lily of the Nile”-
Is a very enchanting flower.
These come in light blue on
stems two to three feet above
the foliage. They make perfect
cut flowers and thrive in any
soil. -
Yellow is a color used very
much in the spring planting,
but Winter Acomlte is an ad
ded golden blossom that Is such
a relaxing blossom on emerald
green cushion early in the
spring. Grow them for contrast
to the beautiful blue and white
blossoms in the spring.
It isn’t too late to buy all
the spring-blooming bulbs.
Check the condition of the bulb
before you buy. Many of them
have been packed in counters
that are too hot, and have be
come too dry for good blooms.

(Editor s Note: In Mamie
Miller’s old fashioned garden
there is a metal plaque on
which is Inscribed a beautiful
quotation. The plaque was a
gift from D. M. Parker, Sr.,
and Mamie values It highly!
She has never read the coni-
plete poem from which thequo-
tation was taken. We’ve found
It—“The Lord God Planted A
Garden’ ’ -by Dorothy Frances
Gurney, and want to share It
with you as this week’s Buds
and Blossoms poem, while sur
prising Mamie with a substitute
for the poem she Intended using
this week.)
The Lord God planted a
garden
In the first white days
of the world.
And he set there an angel
warden
In a garment of light
enfurled.
So near to the peace of
Heaven,
That the hawk might
nest with the wren.
For there in the cool
of even’
God walked with the first
of men.
The kiss of the sun for
pardon.
The song of the birds
for mirth-
One is nearer God’s heart
in a garden
Than anywhere else on earth.
The only time a miser puts
his hand in his pocket is dur
ing cold weather.
Purchase of puipwood grown
in North Carolina and delivered
to pulp and paper mills during
1961 totaled $45,838,000, it was
reported by H. J. Malsberger of
Atlanta, general manager of the
Souther Puipwood Conservation
association.
Last year’s total for the
state, he added, was one per
cent higher than the value of
$45,472,000 recorded for 1960
deliveries.
These figures were based on
the results of a 12-state pulp-
wood production survey made
by the U. S. Forest Service ex
periment stations at Asheville,
and Nev/ Orleans, La., in coop
eration with SPCA.
Among the 97 counties in
North Carolina where pulp-
wood was produced, the three
leading counties, and the value
of deliveries shipped from each,
were Bladen, $1,419,560; Bruns
wick, $1,361,320, and Onslow,
$1,313,380.
North Carolina’s share in the
production of wood raw materi
al for the pulp and paper in
dustry, Mr. Malsberger explain
ed, was part of an all-time high
puipwood harvest for the South
The 12-state total for 1961
was $484,614,000, a gain of
three percent over the previous
record of $471,020,000 for 1960.
The South’s puipwood harvest
last year was not only 60 per
cent of the total for the nation,
Mr. Malsberger stressed, but
was also greater than that "of
any single foreign country and
more than in any area of com
parable size in the world.
