Leaves Too Valuable To Go Up In Smoke Clemson, Nov. 6.?At this season and throughout the winter thousands of dollars go up In smoke when a match is applied to piles of leaves raked tip from yards or groves, says 10. M. ltawl, extension horticulturist. Vegetable and flower gardeners should realize, Mr. Kuwl states, that leaves mean money, or good vegetables and pretty flowers. Many persons who burn leaves now will And thyir gardens "burning up" for luck of vvqter next spring and summer. Decayed leaves are humus, ami humus is essential in the prevention of dry weather injury to gardens. Humus greatly increases the cupu-j city of ajl soils to hold more water, it improves heavy soils by making) them-more friable, and tends to make them warm up earlier in the spring. It tills the pores of loose soils and makes them better able to hold moisture and easier to work. In addition, humus adds valuable plant food to soils. It is unwise to rake up and nt.to'.e leaves from under shade trees without returning decayed leaves or other suitable materials, for this decaying vegetable matter is one of nature's methods of fertilizing trees and preventing erosion. Leaves are easily made into humus. Hake them when they are wet and pile them in a broad, flat-top pile in a corner. If the leaves arc dry, water the pilo gradually as it is built, as otherwise it would bo difficult for the (enter of the pile to become wet and decomposition would be delayed. About a year would be needed to decay tin leaves sufficiently lor best * i? U*t\ 'l\> hasten decay and improve the fertilizing value of the humus material. mix one pound of the following to about 2" pounds of leaves: Eight pounds of dolomitic limestone, nine pounds of sulfate of ammonia, and three pounds of acid phosphate. It is also desirable to mix a little stable manure or rich soil with the leaves. The resulting humus would really be a synthetic manure. Emperor Haile Selassie began the celebration of the fifth anniversary of his coronation at Addis Ababa on Sunday by going to the Cathedral and praying for five hours. He thanked God for the blessings conferred on Ethiopia during his five-year reign and for deliverance from war.
