Page Two THE NEW BERN MIRROR, NEW BERN, N. C. Friday, October 23, 1964 -31 Buds AND Blossoms MAMIE MILLER “Now unto the King eternal, Immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever.”—I Tim. 1:17, Dlanthus, the garden pink, is very popular. Maiden Pink, Chedder Pink, and Grass Pink all are small, mat-forming plants with greenish blue foli age. They are very fragrant. These are old garden favorites. Plant anemones or ranuncul- oides in a porous soil of a generous amount of humus. Plant them two or three inches apart. Cover them about two in ches deep. They like shade. Put a generous amount of well rotted cow manure to your lily-of-the valley. Do not let them become overcrowded. Plant scilla from two to live inches deep. Put them in a fair ly fertile soil this fall. They grow for years undisturbed. Divide daffodils in July, Do not cut the foliage, wait until it dies. We sometime get im patient and dig them in the fall, and that keeps us from getting blooms. Bone meal, superphosphate, dried cattle manure and com mercial fertilizers such as 4-8-4 or 5-10-5 are always good for tulips. If tulips are planted too deeply they will waste their streng^ pushing through to the ground level. If they are planted too shallow they will heave out the earth and freeze. Tulips will re main in the earth three years without disturbing, unless you have moles. When mice and squirrels eat your tulip bulbs, use a rodent repellent and mulch them after the earth freezes.

Close bosom-friend of the maturing sun; Conspiring with him how to load and bless With fruit the vines that round the thatch-eves run; To bend with apples the moss’d cottage-trees. And fill all fruit with ripen ess to the core; To swell the gourd, and plump the hazel shells With a sweet Kernel; to get budding more. And still more, later flowers for the bees. Until they think warm days will never cease, For Summer has o’er-brlmmed their clammy cells. Where are the songs of Spring? Ay, where are they? Think not of them, thou hast thy music too,— While barred clouds bloom the soft-dying day. And touch the stubble-plains with rosy hue; Then in a wailful choir the small gants mourn Among the river sallows, borne aloft Or sinking as the li^t wind lives or dies; And full-grown lambs loud bleat from hilly bourn; Hedge-crickets sing; and now with treble soft The red-breast whistles from a garden-croft; And gathering swallows twitter in the skies.

He trav eled over Belgium, France and Great Britain in the midst of the hostilities, and went through the German submarine block ade sixty times. If we are going to remember him for his role of villain in the Depression, we should in justice also remember his role as humanitarian when the Ka iser unleashed his military fUry on millions of fellow beings in other lands. There have been greater Presidents, but whatever his faults. Hoover didn’t fall far short of being a great American.
