Expt
To Gardening
By BERNARD BRENNER
United Press International
Washington The right
site for a garden is just as
necessary for success as the
green thumb.
To all you gardening new
comers, and old-timers who
may need a few reminders,
the experts recommend selec
tion of a plot which will get
direct sunlight at least six
hours a day. Choose land that
is well drained, clean and rea
sonably fertile. And, find a
plot close enough home to see
it almost every day.
The experts say that what
is lacking in fertility, can be
added. But they warn new
comers against trying to pro
duce vegetables and flowers
in a combination of subsoil,
trash and rubble left behind
by a builder's crew.
Any soil that will grow a
crop of grass or weeds can

Out Advice
Newcomers
be developed into a good gar
den, they say.
Before you plow or spade,
clean away all the plant de
bris, stones, anything that
will interfere with working
the soil.
Don't plow or spade until
the ground has dried. Work
ing in wet soil packs it. To
test for dryness, squeeze a
handful of soil, and then
break apart in your fingers.
If the. dirt crumbles, it's
ready to work.
When you dig for the veg
etable garden, don't turn up
more than one inch or so of
the subsoil. In most areas,
garden t experts recommend
spading eight to 10 inches in
depth. And while getting
ready to spade, you'll want to
plan fof addition of lime and
fertilizer.
Lime improves the struc
ture of some heavy soils, but
too much may hurt garden
crops Use lime only when a
soil test shows it is necessary.
As for fertilizer, use either
manure or commercial prod
ucts. On small gardens, the
commercial fertilizers should
be raked or harrowed into the
top three to four inches of the
soil, using about 50 to 60
pounds for a plot measuring
30 by 50 feet.

Originated By
Gold Hill Woman
The April issue of Sunset
magazine carries an article
on how to make a "lavender
family" as designed by Mrs.
John D. Hoist. Gold Hill.
The "lavender family" is
made of the lavender plant,
which the article explains, is,
harvested in July. Although
now is a good month to plant
it. Mrs. Hoist named her lav
ender "family" Louie, Liz and
Lou.
The figures made from the
plant may be used for months
to give a clean, fresh fra

Mrs. Hoist is an active mem
