Happy New Year, gardening friends I May you enjoy the good earth and reap abundantly. January is a good month to clean up the garden, and get plants and seeds and fertilizers. Make cuttings of crepe myrtles, box, roses, hydrangeas and any flowering shrub you want to put out. Prune figs back this month, and paint the wounds with white lead. Figs will produce on three branches as much as they will on six branches. Put barnyard manure around fruit trees this month. Kill wild onions in your lawn by digging them up with a clump of dirt with each onion root. If you want to use more money and less labor, apply 2,4-D when the onions are young. Sometimes you must use 3 treatments. Buy azaleas that are at least 2 years old. Plant them in a well drained, acid soil that Is high in organic matter. They like to grow under pine or oak trees. Don't plant azaleas under elm or maple trees. These trees take up to much water for the azaleas to survive. Send for a new free seed catalogue. Write to W. Atlee Burpee Co., 522 Burpee Bid., Philadelphia, Pa„ 19132. If you don’t grow flowers. What’s ahead in clothing and fabrics for the consumer in 1965? ' Miss Mary Em Lee, exten sion clothing specialist. North Carolina State, gives a run down. 1. Improved wash and wear cotton—From the U, S. Depart ment of Agriculture comes a treatment that not only gives wash-and-wear properties to cotton but also adds per manent dyes, starch and other finishing materials. In addition, this single treat ment may eventually attalhi other chemicals to cotton—In- culdlng those that give resis tance to Are, rot and mildew and some repellancy to oil and water. 2. Trends in wool--Many of today’s wools are washable. New improved wools have stretch qualities and hold a permanent crease and pleat. In addition to these qualities, tomorrow’s wools will also have better moth proofing charac teristics, resistance to soil and will be longer wearing. In 1965, a new shrunkproof yarn will be used to make machine washable woolen knit goods, 3, Stretch fabrics—Many fashion forecasters predict that eventually at least 90 per cent of all fabric will have some stretch. Look for new all-cotton stretch socks for men and boys in 1965. 4, Moldable garments-- , Scientists now 'can mold cotton at least read about them in the many things you may receive In the mall for a postage stamp. This week, for our Buds and Blossoms poem, we turn to the words of a beautiful hymn that is familiar to us all. This is my Father’s world. And to my llst’ning ears All nature sings, and round me rings The music of the spheres. This is my Father’s world, I rest me in the thought Of rocks and trees, of skies and seas. His hand the wonders wrought. This is my Father’s world. The bircis their carols raise. The morning light, the lily white. Declare their Maker’s praise. This is my Father’s world. He shines in all that’s fair; In the rustling grass I h^r Him pass, ^ He speaks to me everywhere. This is my Father’s world, O let me ne’er forget That though the wrong seems oft so strong, God is the ruler yet. This is my Father’s world. The battle is not done, Jesus who died shall be satis fied. And earth and heav’n be one. r Ceramic Tile • Quarry Porches • Marble Fireplaces • Rubber & Asphalt Tile 6. H.
