SPRING TONIC — Rhubarb
lovers can now enjoy this treat all
year by freezing the fresh stalks
now appearing in stores. Cut deep
red stalks into one-inch pieces,
coat with sugar and freeze in plas
tic containers for later use.
FIRST AID — A quick dab of
vanilla on a minor kitchen burn
will relieve the pain.
SPRING CLEANING — It’s
window-washing time. Using a
rubber squeegie makes lighter
work of the chore! If, or when,
your squeegie begins to age, revive
it by rubbing the edge with very
fine sandpaper.
EGG TRICK — Those who
crave fried eggs can make them
healthier by removing much of the
fat. Simply rest the egg for a few
seconds on a slotted pancake
turner that you’ve covered with a
paper towel.
HAM GLAZES — A few
choices for topping your Easter
ham: (1) 1/2 cup corn syrup, 2
tablespoons prepared mustard and
1 cup applesauce; (2) 1/2 cup each
of vinegar and molasses or (3) 1/2
cup crushed pineapple and 3/4 cup
brown sugar.
REPAIR JOB — A remedy for
thick nail polish is the addition of
a few drops of polish remover or
rubbing alcohol. Mix well before
applying to nails.
TEAR JERKER — Stains on
metal pans can often be removed
quickly by rubbing a raw onion
over the surface. Gone is unsightly
rust.

Gardener Margaret Fuller gave a report on "Soils of Durham County".
Soil is used as tlie foundation material for roads, homes, industrial and
commercial development, . she reported.
There are several broad groups of soils found in Durham County.
SoHiheri.i and Eastern Dur ham County Soil form a group of very sticky,
heavy, plastic clay. Water moves very slowly into the soil. They stay wet
and 5WI311 when wet. Wh en dry they are very hard and the soil shrinks.
They r.'Ange in color fror n gray to red. Because of slow drainage, they
havQ a high erosion hazai d.
Because they shrink and swell, and are poorly drained, proper footings
and ;e«cavation can be a problem, she said. These soils can crack
concrete.
NWihern Duihainf Co unty Soils are red to yellow or brown in colw.
Thcy,;arc better drained. They arc silty clay soils. Rock fragments are
more commonly found near the surface, and on steeper areas the soil can
be very rocky,
'BdtldTnland soils, a t bird group of soils are found along streams, creeks,
and rivers, are gray to brown in color, and are flooded frequently.
Usfially, these soils ttre nearly level and tend to be wet for part of the
yeftr, particular from fall until spring.
Bottomland soils c an be sandy to silty or clayey in nature. This is due
to new soil being d eposited during floods. Because of this mix of soil
particles, botlomlard soils are not good to build on. They tend to get
mucky and sloppy when disturbed. Often, blue mud is found under the
surface layer and they can have a foul smell. Because of the poor
propcrtic ; and (loo ding hazard, these soils are best left undisturbed and in
natural vegetation,.
Other members present were gardeners: Naomi Parkers, Dorothea
Johnson, Mary Jarmon, Margaret Allen and Margaret Fuller.

Start Composting
For the vegetable grower, as well
as the flower gardener, compost
performs a bouquet of important
garden tasks for practically noth
ing. The process of composting
also helps you recycle much of your
household garbage — egg shells,
fruit and vegetable peelings and
scraps, coffee grounds with paper
filters, moldy bread, paper plates
and even black and white newspa
pers (preferably shredded for more
efficient decomposition) are all
good composting materials, in ad
dition to grass clippings and raked
leaves from your yard. Turning
these materials into compost that
will greatly enhance the ' ’ity of
your soil (by improving tc. .ure and
drainage, adding nutrients, keeping
it aerated and introducing essential
mircroorganisms) makes sense for
good gardeners, as well as re-
cyclers. And it’s easy to start com
posting. Now’s a good, time, here
are some how-tos:
You can make your own com
post bin simply by enclosing the
sides of an outdoor area at least
three feet wide — old wooden
boards, inexpensive low garden
fencing, large-capacity, well-
cleaned metal drums, or chicken
wire may be used. Choose a site
near your house so it will be conve
nient to recycle kitchen debris
yeai-round, and make sure the
area is open to air and rain as well
as lo sunlight. Compost piles or
bins must get lots of oxygen to
support the bacteria that decom
poses organic matter and converts
it to useful compost.
To begin a Compost heap, create
a layer of kitchen and green garden
scraps about six inches deep; cover
with two inches of soil and non
green material like browned leaves,
sawdust, straw. Continue lo alter
nate layers in this way.
Keep the compost aerated by
