Mrs. THE HOME GARDENER ‘ Practical and Seasonal Hints for the Amateur for Beautifying Surroundings of the Home. Rarely has the garden been less troubl:j with muct} and dllel-lfin n this Summer. Plant lice have not been in evidence in any great numbers since early Spring, the Mexican bean beetle, which has been so destructive the past two seasons, has practically disappeared and the Oriental h moth, which infests the tips of the young shoots of peach, plum and cherry, is very scarce. In plant diseases one can scarcely recollect when black s of the rose has caused so little injury, and one Takoma gardener reported that his muskmelons and cucumbers for the first time in many seasons did not succumb to mildew and other diseases. The examples might likely be multi- plied many times. The point to the story is, however, that the gardener would rather have a normal year, with normal crops and normal amount of pests, than such a fruitless year as has obtained. Whether next year will find the insect hosts redyced as a re- sult of this year's conditions is a ques- tion. Insects multiply with extreme rapidity under conditions of abundant food and are likely to stage a quick comeback another season. Incidentally, this has been a hard year on dealers in garden supplies of all kinds. The heat and drought and resulting insignificant crops practically killed the demand for equipment and materials. Pansy plants are now being set out of doors for next Spring’s blooming, and with any ordinary Winter will sur- vive nearly 100 per cent. In fact, it does not appear that any low tempera- ture such as occurs here injures pansy plants, the hazard being coatings of ice which last so long as to smother the plants. Pansies are Wintered over outdoors as far North as Boston, Mass., with only a light covering of straw or hay, which naturally is not enough to warm the soil, but simply prevents alternate freezing and thawing with heaving of the roots. The great secret of pansy culture is good quality seed, which means not only healthy, vigorous seed, but seed bred carefully from large-flowered, at- tractively colored varieties. The Mont- gomery Suburban Garden Club, follow- Ansler of Salem, Mass, made an ad- dress. Mrs. Nellie Etting was elected as alternate to the Grand Temple ses- sion in Virginia. B. P. 0. ELKS.

Pan- sles might very well be more generally grown from seed by home gardeners rather than relying on commercial dealers, who are not all so careful as to the quality of the seed sown. July and August are the proper months to sow the seed, but small plants may be purchased at this season at quite rea- sonable rates. ‘When one comes right down to the facts, there has been very little ex- perimental work done with ornamental plants, such as might be taken as a foundation for hard and fast recom- mendations for procedure in practical garden operations. Fertilizers come particularly under this head. Some gardeners think bone meal to be the one best fertilizer, others sheep manure and still others have something else to recommend. When one takes into con- sideration that each gardener is work- mfld" special conditions rather pe- to himself, it is no wonder that such a maze of recommendations have emerged. It would be a splendid thing if the experiment stations had avail- able money for working out some of the home gardener's problems. Until then most of our knowledge must rest on results of personal experience. As a matter of fact, it is likely that there are no such differences between fertilizers as some would lead us to think, ?rovlded they contain the right kind of elements. Nitrogen and phosphorous appear to be limiting element in our local soils and although bone meal contains both are_ in rather slowly available form. Sheep manure would supply chiefly the necessary nitrogen. A mixed fertilizer has nitrogen, phos- phorous and mflsh and is just a little more certain to meet all the soil than do the special purpose materials, like bone meal. Mixed fertilizer is sometimes incorrectly termed phos- Ehlu, but differs from pholnhl& by aving also nitrog d make-up. only phosphorous and, although in fitself, needs nitrogen and pqg:: some potash to make a well rounded fertilizer. One is really more certain of meeting the sofl's needs if using & complete fer- tilizer, several worthwhile brands of which are now put up in handy-sized packages for the home gardener’s use and may be easily obtained from local hardware or seed stores. FALL PLANTING Unless rains come shortly there will be little object in setting out ever- greens and shrubbery this Autumn, al- theugh, generally speaking, much bet- ter results follow planting at this season than in Spring ‘The home gardener will have to gauge his own conditions. If water is lable for thoroughly soaking the soil about newly set plants, conditions are good, but if one has to set costly everrgreens out in the dust dry soll, conditions are not favorable since even that water in the soil about the roots weuld be rapidly withdrawn bv the dry environment. Everything points to next S?flnl being a mighty active season for local gardeners, in re- glucement of plants lost during this ummer and in general restoration of the gardens to a productive condition. __IVY GROUND COVER After having observed plantings of pachysandra and of English ivy under the dense shade of large trees, one can but reach the conclusion that the ivy is the better ground cover under such unfavorable environment. Ivy is nat- urally a climber, but if grown on the ground forms a dense mat of leaves. 1vy is easy to propagate since cuttings of young wood taken at any time in the growing season will root readily if wat- ered. Here and there about the city one may see ivy grown as a cover for steep anks, the slope of which is too great for grass or perhaps where the owner does not care to mow such an incon- venient place. Here again the ivy does well whether in full sunlight or shade. As a rule grass is the finest ground cover of all, but there are limits of sunlight below which grass does not thrive. Apparently ivy is much more tolerant to thade than is grass.
