Garden Time BY Η. E. GARDNER This is a calm sunshiny day in Raleigh with a pleasant ttmper ature of about 45 degrees. Quite a contrast with the below freez ! ing temperatures we have had [ for many days. Gives you the urge to begin working the soil if it ever dries out ertough. May b- this is a good time to answer a backlog of questions which have accumulated. (Q) Will cucumbe: 0 cross with other vine crops such as, water melons, cantaloupes, pumpkins or squashes? (A) No. Varieties of cucumbers cross readily but not with the other vine crops mentioned. (Q) Will yellow om cross with white com? · α) Yes. This is more or less common' know ledge but the question is still asked. Pollen of the white corn will cause some ot the kernels of the yellow variety to be white giving a spotted appearance: yellow corn will cause white corn to be spotted with yellow kernels. Sweet eon) should not be planted near field or pop corn. This points out the import ance of not planting yellow var ieties like Ioana and Golden Bantam with such κ hite variet ies as Stowell's Evergreen and Tucker's Favorite. (Q) Does it pay to remov the suckers from jweet corn? (A) No. Numerous tests have been conducted on removing suckers at different times and -in different ways. The results jshow that no significant bene jfit.· have resultb>l in earliness, jswe of ear or in t-.-tal yeild. The I reason for this is that raw mat jerials, brought into the plant I from the soil, are not untilized j in the development of the ear, ;o.· in other growth, until they jhave undergone nvmuftfeture in [the plant. The suckers aid ir |tnis manufacture. During tne growing season we are literally rurrounded b;, ,I manufacturing plant« but mos" "Henry always Dim this roar mirror so all yow-can im Is the car behind pcupic are iiui imciusicu in wnai makes the wheels turn. They are only interested in ihe end pro duct. This is unfortunate, and imay be one reason why "we do not have our share cf great sci entists." Pruning Can Prevent Diseases Spreading Late winter months are a good time to prune shade trees. R. S. Douglass, forestry speci alist for the N. C. Agricultural Extension Service, says that prunning diseased or damaged limbs can prevent the spread of disease, improve the appearance of the tree and imrease the use fulness of a tree &3 an ornament al «hade tree. Douglas says to be sure t( make a neat iut as close as pos sible to the trunk. He says the jest way to do this is to cut part way through the limb from ,r.e underside about six or eight nches from the trunk. Then re nove the limb by cutting from he top a few inches farther out i'his will prevent the weight oi he limb from tearing a stri; lown the side of the tree. The stub should be removed by cut .ing close to the tite. Wounds over two inches ir diameter should ba kept covered with asphalt, he?vy paint or .par varnish until they heal over. Otherwise, rot fungi may become i>stablished in the exposed dry vood and the tree will eventu ally be hollow. Douglas concludes: "A nice hade tree requires many years I > grow. Any reasonable amount I ( care is a paying proposition.' tar neeis nane "a- ch Egg Month March is egs month in Nortl .trolina.
