GARDENING
REMINDERS
Tips Given by Prominent Grow­
er* at Garden Club Meeting.
Never use animal fertilizers
on delphinium. Steamed bone
meal carefully dug into the soil
around the roots is the only fer­
tilizer necessary. Of course, the
soil should be friable.
Use the hoe more and the hose
less. This is very important in­
formation to the Vernoniaites,
who have to watch their water
bills.
Peonies should have no water
at all. The blooms may not be
quite as large but are of bet­
ter substance and will keep far
better as a cut flowers.
Never use animal fertilizer
near bulbs or lilies. If it is nec­
essary to make the soil loose
and friable use a lot of well rot­ I Mildred and Ida Mae Hawkins.
