Mr. John Harris, Extension
landscape Specialist, offers the
ollowing suggestions for Yard
3eautification for August:*
1. To renew your faith in the
uture, take a walk in the forest
nd observe the permanency and
>eauty of nature. Men and na
ions rise and fall; but nature,
ilthough abused, remains behind
o help or destroy the next gen
ration. depending on how well
ler laws are observed.
2. Mark native trees and
ihrubs to be moved this fall be
ore the leaves drop.
3. Oriental poppies and Ma
lonna lilies may be planted this
nonth.
4. To control plant lice spray
ir dust with nicotine sulphate.
5. Dust with sulphur to con
trol mildew on phlox, grapes,
roses, erepemyrtle and other
plants.
6. Prepare ground (or seeding
lawn. Work manure into soil
and allow to settle until October.
Topsoil should be used if soil in
yard is poor.
7. To retard the spread of
mimosa wilt, remove and burn
dead or dying mimosa trees.
There is no remedy for this dis
ease at the present time.
8. A number of hardy peren
nials may be started ffom seed
this month including the more
common ones iisted below. The !
majority of these flower seed
should be sown in boxes and the
plants carried through winter in
cold frames or at least given
some protection from severe cold
weather. Canterbury Bells,
Shasta Daisy, Delphinium, Gall
lardia, Heliopsis, Hollyhock, Si
lence, ((Speedwell) Veronica.
Pansy, Columbine. Foxglobe.
9. Avoid cl()se clipping of lawn,
especially during hot, dry weath
er.
10. Continue making summer
cuttings through August.
