Another shrub grower said some damage might result to cer tain of the more tender azaleas jn some localities but as a whole, he, too, agreed there was not apt to be much harm. Another grower suggested pouring a bucket of wa ter around some of the more ten der shrubs, while still another didn't hold with this, i .

Flowers of the winter jasmine (Jasmlnym nudiflorum) have been damaged by the frosts, but I believe the buds will continue to unfold as soon as they are thawed out ThiSis a very satis factory vine, giving clear yellow bloom when there is so little else in flower. A south wall or a she! tered south bank are very nice positions for this vine. And to those who do not know it, let me say, it is not a viney vine.

Feb. 7 Salem Garden club, Woman's club buildings, 2 p. m. Questions and Answers L. E. asks is she should water her rhododendrons during the cold spell. Ans.: ; See above story. Also, it is advised during severe frost weather to spray foliage of rhod odendrons or other broad leafed evergreens with water in the ear ly morning before the sun strikes the foliage ... If you like get ting up that early in this kind of weather. N. A writes she received two potted azaleas for Christmas plants and on each was a note say in! it miht be planted out of doors as soon as weather permits Wants to know if they should be planted in peat moss. Has heard this is the approved way. and if so, how it is done. Ans.: Several azalea growers are now advising to plant the aza leas in a bed of peat. Dig a hole twice the size of the balled root (if the plants come this way, or twice the size of the pot) with well-soaked peat moss. Then pro ceed to plant the shrubs just as you would in ordinary garden soil. orlQ 99:95 e' SB 111 1 Q !! i nil 1 1 foioamii Wo Soood'oooo oa ko f it to ssa eo ood Ralph Johnson Appliances 355 Center Ph. 3-3139 CH ". r. lit B ii Ocean Fresh it osL B ILEDl MAIL'S 2605 Portland Road -"Ocean Fresh" C K C R sek B In soaking the peat, work it up somewhat with hands so that you are sure it has absorbed the mois ture. D. E. S. says he has noted some material used as plant coverings in a number of gardens. Especial ly noted that it was used last spring to keep rains off from cam ellias in bloom. That was in Seat tle and he has asked some of the people he has met since he moved here last fall but they do not know what it is. Ans.: I imagine it is one of the commercial plant protectors which can be had at seed and plant sup ply stores. It comes under differ ent trade names. It is used, too, to keep rams from splashing mud on the white Christmas roses and smaller beds of narcissuses. C. W. asks if she should prune her daphne odora now. Says it has become "sprawly and far from neat." Ans.: Why not wait until it blooms? You'd sacrifice too many flowers if you pruned it now. Tip back terminal growths when the flowering period is over. This will tend to make bushy growth and branches can also be kept nearer the ground with correct pruning. From the time this daphne is planted, some pruning should be done each year to keep the plant in shape. Otherwise it grows into long, empty branches with small sets of leaves and flowers at the terminals. P. A writes that not long ago she saw something about a flow ering evergreen hedge but lost the cupping and wants to know what this might be. Ans.: It could have been one of the a belias or it might have been barberry darwinii. The former has blush pink blossoms and the lat ter orange-yellow. The barberry foliage is like tiny holly leaves.
