Garden Club Notes Prune all flowering shrubs which have finished blooming. Cut back branch to the first new shoot h» low the dead flowers. Subscribe To The Chronicle ’The Camden Garden Club held its April ipeeting in the EMucation bullying ot the •Presbyterian church. The meetipg was called to order by the president, Mrs. Samuel Russell. The program for the afternoon, by request, was devoted to helpful sug gestions for young gardeners, and consisted of ‘ talks on timely top ics by members of the club. They were, as follows: "Flower Borders." by Mrs. John Villepigue; ’‘Chry santhemums,’’ by Mrs. E). B. Mob ley; “Making a Vegetable Garden," by Mrs. Ben DeLoache; "Some^ Seeds to Plant In April,”, by Mrs. Mobley. In her talk about flower borders, Mrs. Villepigue stated that such a design for planting was one of the best means of handling flowering plants. With a wide range of ma terial a border can be kept a thing of beauty throughout the season. Great consideration should be given to color harmony, and to proportion in relation to the size of the gar den. Perennials are of great value in a border, with annuals as fillers. Plants should be put in groups, rather than singly, or In rows. A fence covered with running roses or other wines usually affords a more pleasing background than One of fast growing shrubs. Mrs. Mobley gave in every prac tical manner t&e important facts about planting chrysanthemums. Some of these were: Prepare the bed in early spring, adding well rotted cow manure. Reset plants every Vear. When plants reach the height] of 10 or 12 inches pinch out the tops. Soak twice a week in dry or pot weather. Mrs. DeLoache gave a practical and informative suggestion for the planting of vegetables. She pointed out that the success of the garden depended largely on the prepara tion of the soil. Mrs. Whitaker read a paper pre pared by Mrs. Mobley, which told of some seed that can be sown In April. Mr. Lake, agent for the Com munity Concert, was then pre sented. Mr. Lake explained the idea and plans of the Community Concerts, and showed an interest ing film of “Artists In Action.’’ At the conclusion of the meeting delicious punch an cookies were served by a group of hostessea.
