With the owning of (mm the do
duouj tree* will begin to lose
their leaves. This often present* ?
problem for the home owner, both
In town end country, who went*
to have a neat yard, lawn end gar
The usual .impulse is to rake up
the leaves and burn them or to
rake them Into the street and have
the city truck east them away.
But as deficient as our soils are
in organic matter burning leaves Is
a wasteful procedure. It la true, of j
course, that the leaves must be
raked off of the lawn?graia esp
ecially newly planted graaa-or they I
will smother the grass. The thing '
to do is to rake the leaves and
make a leaf compost.
Pile and rot them so that they
can be spread on the garden and
incorporated with the soil or used
as a mulch around shrube-espectal
ly azaleas. Leaves are difficult to
rot U they are lust raked up into
a targe pile. The compost pile
should be built in layers about a
foot deep.
Each layer should be thoroughly
wet down and a small amount of a'
fertilizer high in nitrogen sprinkl
ed over the leaves. A complete fer
tilizer such as a 6-8-6 or 8-8-8 can
b used, or sulphate of ammonia, or
nitraate of soda will be satisfact
ory.
Along with the fertilizer, each
layer of leaves may be covered
with about an inch of garden soil.
When the pile of leaves has been
built up to the desired height, it
is covered with a .thin layer of soil
and allowed to stand for eight to
12 months.
During this time it must be kept
wet The result will be leafmold
which is a valuable supplement to
most garden soils. Leafmold is us
ually very acid in reaction and un
less you are usiqg it around acid
loving plants, lime should be add
ed.
On large lawns raking is a ted
ious chore. For those who can af
ford it there is a machine which
picks up te leaves, grinds them up
the banner for having the largest
number of parents at the meeting.
