Madsen iSUUsau Garde Ed Ur George Ahling, Salem's Rosar ian, once said that caring lor roses during the hot suirimer months present little i '. . i r a diffidulty to the I 1 " t i. - 4 M ? average gardener -, ii ne: renes on a i simple but regu- 1 lar schedule for I water, cultivat- ing, feeding and 1 - spraying, negu- iarityf should be the; watenwora for the rose gar dener during the "dog1 days" of August jUni Ma4wa Watering during this period of dryness and heat is' naturally one of the most important phases of rose -culture. Evert though such hardy plants as Fashion Mission Bellsi Capistrano land ? Sutter's Gold all-American winners for 1950,; will survive long periods of drought, they cannot be expected to make rapid progress and to pro duce 1 the results they should in time i for the autumn rose shows without sufficient Water., ' The cardinal point to remember about water is that, to be effect ive, it must soak the soil thor oughly to a depth of at "least 10 inches, and the foliage should be kept dry if watering is done at night. If watering is done early in the morning, the need of keep ing foliage dry, unless just dusted or sprayed, is not so important A garden hose with the nozzle remo ved, will feed water into the base of the plant without wetting the leaves, however. To cover more area, set the mouth of the hose on a board and let the water run off over its surface. This will spread hth flow and keep' the soil from washing away at the base of the plant. Light cultivation mar be neces sary where no mulch is used to prevent the caking of surface soil and reduce weeds, but since a healthy rose plant produces many small roots near the surface, deep cultivation should be avoided to prevent damage to the n ot system. Mulching the rose bed with organ ic matreials such as peat moss, compost, ground corn cobs, or well-rotted manure will help to retain water and to keep weeds at a minimum. It is better for the plant, also, than stirring the soil. Mulching material should be shredded. A few rose lovers tend to over feed their plants, but a more com mon error is feeding too little or not at all. Roses will thrive on well-rotted manure or some other organic fertilizer worked mtothe soil around each plant If the or ganic type is not readily available. however, a standard commercial fertilizer will suifice. About 'one heaping teaspoonful j per- plant is sufficient. Once during August and about a month later in Sep tember will keep your roses vigor ous and productive. There are a number of all-purpose sprays and powders which do an effective job if properly used on roses during' the summer. Questions and Answers j L. E. D. says she used a widely known rose dust on her plants and it killed the foliage. Ans.: The product she names has been used successfully by many rote growers in the Salem vicinity. Perhaps she put it on too thickly or too frequently. The rose dusts should scarcely show on the foliage and they should not be used more often than every week or 10 days. A. B. T. asks if the Salem Bego nia society is open to new mem bers and how to get into it. Ans.: Send me a self -addressed stamped envelope and 111 send you the address of the society's secretary. It is my opinion this group welcomes' new. members. Certainly it is an enjoyable group to meet with. M. H. V. writes she has used sawdust about six . inches deep around her rhododendrons. Put it on early this past May and has watered faithfully but still the plants look wilted. Wonders if sawdust is poisonous. Ans.: No, to the last statement first. But the sawdust mulch is too thick. Sawdust decays slowly and should not be used too heavily. Water very likely has not pene trated the sawdust Frequenly you can water all day long and then ' JPnaMfic IHLeeor'ds MUNICIPAL COURT Frank Jack Isom, Salem route 8, box 663. driving while intoxi cated; 30-day ail sentence sus pended on payment of $250 fine, driver's license revoked for one year.
