Questions
Betty Hartge doesn't understand why
her willow twigs have not rooted, as
they usually grow very easily. Betty
has recently attended a 2 day course in
Bee-keeping, and gave us astronomical
figures on the value of bees.

Bea Hutton asked if others have
had bees around the bird-feeder.
Yes, the lure being the cracked corn we
suppose.

James Ballard is discouraged by
honeysuckle waiting to crowd out his
fence. 2-4-D kills honeysuckle, not grass.

Bill Canby asks where he can find sweet
potato plants. Hines has them "off and on"
No one knew. Names, as the yellow variety,
"Nancy Hall," were mentioned. Bill also
asked at what stage of leaf development
do you spray? (holly?) I think the answer
was to do it now

Lydia Hanland is perturbed by
the quantities of bag-worms on
shrubbery at the Hospital. Too many
to put into a bucket and let them get
away, as Grace Thomas reported.
