College for super ior scholarship during the spring A senior, Linda is the of Mr. Charles Altman Linda graduated High School in How much commercial fertUi zer should I use on my house plants? While this question is difficult to answer with any degree oi accuracy you might use these figures as guidelines: using 8-8-8 as a basis, add one level teaspoonful to a 6-inch pot, one level tablespoonful to "an 8-inch pot, and about one-third tea spoonful to a 4-inch pot. The granular form of fertilizer is best. If you have the pellet form, crush with a hammer before ap plying. For special formulations (tablets, liquid or powder) care fully follow the manufacturers’ recommendations. How can I tell whether or hot my house plants need to be re potted in a larger container? Place the fingers of one hand firmly on top of the soil in the pot. With the other hand, turn the pot upside down. Tap the rim of the pot gently until the ball slips out. If the roots have form ed a thick solid mass on the out side of the ball of soil, the plant should be repotted. While we are on the subject of house plants, I remind you again that over-watering is the most common cause of failure of potted house plants to grow well. We hear much about the im portance of light in growing house plants and how the light supply varies in different homes. Is a sun lamp of any value in supplying the plant needs for light? The sun lamp is designed to tan your hide and not your flow ers, as it produces a high per centage of ultra-violet (short wave) light. It is best to use or dinary incandescent bulbs if you need additional light. How do plants climb? Some of the more common methods are these: bittersweet, clematis and grape have clinging tendrils, honeysuckle and wisteria are twining; Boston ivy and Virginia creeper have adhesive discs; and euonymus, trumpet-creeper and Baltic ivy employ root-like hold fasts. About every three years we have trouble with stoppage in our sewer line. Do some trees clog lines worse than others? Perhaps elms, willows and poplars are the worst offenders but oaks, maples and others will also clog lines. Certain chemi cals may be used to keep lines open but most of us wait until the line clogs and call a plumber. Then we forget about.it until the line clogs again. If you _qre building a new home, have your contractor install a line which will prevent the entry of roots as they search for moisture and nutrients. 16 Per Cent ECU Students Get Academic Honors Nearly one in six East Caro lina University students last spring made high enough grades to earn places on the official honor lists of the university] That 16 per cent of the stu dents — a total of 1,427 — got official commendation from the university as three honors lists were announced.
