I When the first warm days come ini, spring the sap begins to flow thru! the plant and the buds commence to run-ll. Even though the soil seems cold and wet, the whole plant is alivel with the urge of another growing[ season. When the branches, leaves and ftowers ere ready to burstjorth, every tiny rootlet is culled on to sup. ply the needed sap. But all this takes place very "tly--in fact, so early that outdoor work would be impos- sible., in most cases. due to the soil being too wet to work with. Conse- quently plants moved in the spring being too wet to work with. Conse- quently plants moved in the spring "r" taken up after this activity starts and the growth is then checked, per Bale Landscape i Dig generous sized holes with per- pcndicular sides (never saucer shap- ed). Put the good dirt to one side so that you can use it around the roots. Hmosen the soil in the bottom of the hole. It well rotted tow manure is available it may be mixed with the soil beyond the roots so they will reach out to it as they grow. An- other fertilizer to use in place of the cow manure is bone meal. Humus is lacking. however, in bone meal, as well as most other commercial fer. tilizers. As it is most important in the upkeep and fertility of the soil it should be supplied by the addition of leaf mold, compost and peat moss. Cut off broken or bruised roots just ahove the place of injury. Shorten any roots that are over-long, with a sharp knife ‘or sharp pruning shears. Thursday, Nov. 6, 1930 pl
