Adams zation ROSES of r^M^u^ested roses as . ugge.siea In our raSe bulletin, (which will soon be available' use the sprays or dusts that are carried in this bulletin. Water is es¬ sential for summer oro“l“e1 roses roses if flowers flowers are are to b. proaucen^ Also to maintain the plants in healthy cond.tlon ANNUAL Do no. Perm,t the old flowers to ma the plants. Cut and use them in the house, or, cut them as IS, ZJ*' S. Do not let Remember Petunnias are good cut dow- ers when removed from the plants a few at a time. The plants maintain vigorous growth, if fertilized and water- ed, throughout the months. Watch the Zinnias from on through the summer for powdered mildew Spray or dust them with Fermat, to con trol this disease. Verbena plants are subject to the same trouble as Zinnias. The trol is the same. Violets are now affected with "rust”, control this di- with Fermate. MULCHES: Use wherever possible to conserve moisture in flower beds, shrubs, and lawns. Sawdust is ideal for this purpose. Remember to fertilize the as well as the plants. Both require it. Keep up the moisture by watering when necessary. Be sure to the amount of Nitto- when sawdust is used. WATERING: Time of day little difference in However, watering the morning or middle the day is best If a large area covered. Otherwise water in the late afternoon. No burning of plant foliage will take place If a sprinkler is used that will cover an area 30 feet in dia¬ meter or more. DAHLIAS: Keep the dahlia plants "hilled up” at all times. A four to six-inch mound should) sujfice. This practice will reduce the amount of wa¬ ter on the tubers and reduce root-rot during heavy water¬ ing or rains. Dahlias are sub¬ ject to many insects and di¬ attacking the foliage _ and flowers. Use Ro’.enone or sprays, or Malathon to control the insects. Fermate or Bordeaux mixture will control most of the diseases affecting these plants. DUTCH IRIS: Take up the dutch iris after the foliage is dead, divide them and plant back immediately or store them until fall. It is perhaps best to plant them back to the open ground If cool storage is not available. BEARDED OR GERMAN IRIS: These plants should be fertilized in early July with Nitrate of Soda at the rate of 1 lb. to 100 sq. ft. of ground area. Water this material heavily into the soil. Repeat the watering once each week tor Ahree w r eeks. BULBS: July is the best time to dig jonquils, narcissus, hyacinths and others. Divide the bulbs and plant back to the ground immediately. These bulbs should be divided at least every third year. The ter varieties should be harvest- ed each year. LAWNS: This has been a dry year in most localities and has shown very well the lawn grasses that cannot stand too much drought. If there is a lawn of Zoysia Matrilla in your vicinity, observe the drought resistant quality of this grars. All lawns should fertilized with a 6-8-6 commer- cial fertilizer this month. Use watei each week if available. Apply one-inch of water at each application V. O. O. F. TRENTON LODGE No. 3« TRENTON Regular meeting each Tues¬ day night at 8:00 P. M. Harlan Taylor, N G.

Football Field Worked Last week, a group of men got together with all the equipment they could assemble and reworked the football field at Dade High. This Field was laid and made and the work donated to Dade High School last year by Mr. Dave L. Brown but it could not be com¬ pleted at that time. The county helped out in the grading and hauling of top soil. Equipment was furnished by Roy Moore, Supt. of schools, and Earl R. Rose, farmer of North Trenton. The field was then seeded with Bermuda and Fescue. Next year when football season begins, boys attending school at Dade High will have a foot¬ ball field well-surfaced and one of which they can rightly be proud. The football schedule has al¬ ready been made. There will first game of the season will be be four home games and the in Sept. Dade vs. Lavis.
