Mary Seiler has a thornless rose with bugs. Spray it with chewing tobacco
that's been boiled with soap. Said to be poisonous at first but breaks down
fast. Combine the treatment with fertilization with fish emulsion.
Lydia Haviland has nasturtiums that hasn't had germinations the last couple
years but this year she started them in wet paper towels and all germinated
and are doing well.
When does one start limas? Three or four weeks ago inside or last week
outside. However now is not too late.
Beth Bullard can't get larkspur to grow. Both Priscilla Allen and Leslie Rogers
let their larkspur seed themselves. They suggest coming by and taking some
to be transplanted.

We were reminded that the next meeting was on July 7 and would be held
for the first time at Lea House, home of the Preusses. We thanked the
Canbys for their hospitality and brought the meeting to a close.

With apologies for
mistakes & bad diction,

O Peter Austin
Sec.
