Roger Farquhar's trees died of the treatment.
Volunteer Frances Stabler a poem "Her Garden"
by Kate Carter in Magazine of Art.

The Forethought gave advice for preparing
for winter. Lettuce and cabbage in
cold frames; clean and mulch strawberry
beds; manure and plow gardens;
take care of winter roots etc. In the
Flower garden, clean off weeds, manure
bulb beds, plant more bulbs. Take in house
plants. Forethought quoted from a poultry
which says "on a farm it is decidedly
better to keep more than one variety of
chickens; keep clean and warm, feed
grain, vegetables cooked and raw,
plenty of water, lime, meat once or
twice a week. Some give a warm mash
in the morning." Dr. Magruder says
don't put ashes with hen house manure
unless you put it on the ground immediately.
