Evergreens Need Water 
All Winter 
Be sure that your evergreens go into 
the winter with a good supply of water 
down in the ground around their roots. 
Unlike the plants that go dormant, ever- 
#reens stay awake all winter, and need 
more water. 
After the top crust of soil has frozen, 
not much moisture finds its way from the 
ground surface down to the roots. So give 
your evergreens a good big drink this fall 
before the ground freezes. 
Fall Planting Safe Until 
Soil Freezes Hard 
When freezing temperatures begin, 
many folks who have not finished their 
planting wonder how much longer it can 
safely be done. The answer is: as long 
as the soil will crumble and ean be 
packed properly about the bulbs and 
roots of plants.’ 
It makes little difference to plants 
whether it is November or December so 
long as they can be properly planted. A 
crust of frost on the surface of the soil 
will not interfere with planting. In fact, 
such things as fruit and shade trees (not 
evergreens) and other heavy nursery 
stock can be planted right up to the time 
when the ground freezes solid.

HENRY FIELD'S SEED SENSE FOR AUGUST, 1954—Henry Field. 
Fall Excellent Time 
to Make Lawns 
Early fall, from late August through 
September, is an excellent time to under- 
take renovation of old lawns and seeding 
of new lawns. Since permanent lawn 
grasses are extremely slow in early 
growth, the cool moist weather of autumn 
is very favorable to their germination and 
establishment of a good strong root 
system. 
How’s This for a Squash? 
“Here is a picture 
of my little grandson 
and granddaughter, 
Claude and Ethel 
Mae Hall, with a 
blue Banana Squash 
grown from your 
seed. It not only 
was large, butit kept 
for about a year. 
Then we ate it and 
it-still was firm and 
tasted good.’’—Mr.
