The essentials of a good garden - | are healthy 'seeds or plants, prop- erly prepared and fertilized soil, a super abundance of energy and | strong bac The seeds or -plant you buy from any reliable dealer or bum them from your neighbc |or friends—the soil you spade,rake \'m(l fertilize and then you are wad\ to plant One of the first things to |tend to is the transplanting | shfubs or trees and pruning. A | soon as’possible that straggly bush | or'ragged tree should be pruned Birc rots casily and should | water ‘collect on large freshly cut | upper branches they will be liabl to' rot’” straight to the eround Mountain ash is tougher and can stand more abuse, One look arournt | town Will prove that. If you prune your plant each ye from the { tirhe you put it in, you should never at- of have to cut off a limb ger ti one-half inch in diameter. Prunir is 'simply thinning out unnecessary ‘bran«‘hes or trimming for a par- _ | ticular shape. Pruning can and has | beén carried to extreme but the |averagé gardener, unless faced oy {plants that have been neglected for several years, sHould never have much pruning to do. Cut off branch ’ with a sharp knife ani | don't leave a stub. Cut even with the main branch or trunk. A lit- | tle white paint, daubed on tne wound ‘after you get throu will | be' an ounce of prevention against ‘|m Some use beeswax. | A severe example of pruning can | be seen on Sixth Street. Some tree | have been cut off about 25 feet | from the ground just where they had started to branth, evidently { If you want a new shrub or tree in your yard now is the time to | transplant it. This early spring has started all the shrubs growing, so the sooner you transplant, the bet- ter. Here are a few simple direc- | tions on how to dig up a shrub or | tree. Start digging a trench about one foot from the center of the plant |and continue around it until you have -encircled it. Of course it de- | pends on the size of the shrub or ’mw as to how far from the plant would ‘start digging. But, in I'd say for a medium sized shrub—one about three feet tall— a trench about one foot from the plant would be about | right. Smaller ones less, of course, and larger ones, more. Dig deenly and cut off any roots encountered, |lifting and loosening the soll as | mueh as possible. As you start to |pull the plant up you may dis- | cover you've missed a root or two. Cut them off before proceeding with the pulling. Don't grab the bush or tree and try to pull it ou. without having loosened the soil around it. You will only strip the | you | general, ‘cenlu of the number of years.
