How to make cabbage head. The variety takes care
of that.
When is the last day to plant sweet corn? July 25,
and then you take a chance was the suggestion of
cousin Charlie Brooke. Plant a variety of early
corn for the late crop.
Sow poppy seed broadcast for next years bloom.
When to move lillies of the Valley. Just after
planting was suggested, but they may be moved at
any time.
Excelsior was suggested by Mary Stabler as a
good protection for Perennials.
Mrs. Weld asked for information as to when to
cut Gooseberries for larger fruit that bore
prolificlly. Any time after bearing was given as
the time to prune.
How many people have seen catbirds this
season, they have not been generally seen.
What will happen if rhubarb is cut too
long. No satisfactory answer was given. Fertilize
your rhubarb. Mrs. Weld has good results from using
as a mulch the peat moss and chichen manure from
her hen houses.
Adjourned to meet at Falling Green August
1st, at 4-5 P.M.
The inspections of the garden showed a bountiful
supply of vegetables ready for use and more
in the making. Cloverly holds so much charm, the
broad, far stretching view from the garden is one of
rare beauty, lovely to see at any season, a merital
picture that lingers long.

Mary M. Nichols.
Secretary.
