HELPFUL HINTS ON HAVING
cA Healthy Garden

WINDOW BOX GARDENS

If you don’t have a back-
yard to use ag a garden, or if
you just want an extra
challenge added on to your
green-thumb duties, why
not try window-box gar-
dening? Here are some tips
from experts on how to get
started in this ever-more-
popular pastime—and how
te avoid problems en route.

¢ First, provide appropri-"
ate boxes with holes in the
bottom for drainage. Put in
two or three inches of cin-
dera or broken brick and fill
with rich, porous soil.
Regular attention to water-
ing is of prime importance.

e Your window box
should fit the window
space, but if the length is
excessive, muke it in two
sections. For good results,
the box should be not less
than § inches deep and 10
inches wide. Bore 1/2-inch
hoes 6 inches apart in
bottom for drainage.

e The best soil for win-
dow boxes is one that is rich
and with plenty of humus
to retain moisture. Use two
parts loam, one part peat
moss, with a five-inch pot of
super-phosphate mixed with
each bushel.

« Among the most satis-
factory flowers that grow in
window boxes are begonias,
geraniums, fuchsias, agera-
tum, petunias, dwarf mari-
golds, pansies, morning

glory and sweet alyssum.

e Alt house, hanging and
window box plants need
plant food to maintain vigor

fessionals is Earth Care®

apoon per gallon of water

New Lighting
Does Wonders
For Bathroom

The most neglected room
as far as efficient lighting
is concerned is the bath-
room. Even in new houses
or condominiums, a tiny
fixture over the medicine
cabinet is expected to pro-
vide sufficient lighting for
a close shave or a glamour-
ous make-up,

In order to give shadow-
less light, a bathroom mir-
ror should have a lighting,
fixture on either side and
one in the ceiling above the
head to illuminate all of the
face equally,

The latest type of lighting
on the market is Track
Lighting and it is ideal for
this purpose, because it is
not stationary like other
fixtures. It can be moved
along its track on the cedl-
ing and swiveled around to
focus wherever necessary,

The tracks come in two
lengths — four or eight feet,
and can he jeined or cross-
ed or placed in a "T" or
“L". The lights themselves
come in varibus shapes and
sizes. New for the home are
the “mini” sizes, which are
only 22” to 3" in diameter.
What's more, each light on
the track can be switched
on and of individually.

You'll be surprised what
a Gecor - booster good,
bright lighting can be in
your bathroom,
