CHDA NOTES
Mrs. Ira Ricketts Is really en-
thusiastic about the merits of
Hybrid Sweet Corn, Spancross
and Tendergold (all hybrid var-
ieties and all of which she raised
In her garden last year.) She de-
clares that the hulls were tender
and there were few worms, and
Is so enthusiastic about these
corn varieties that she Ls "sell-
ing" many H. D. members on the
Idea of trial plantings this year.
Werner of Westway are making’
[an offer which should appeal to
’some ambitious fruit growers.
At the meeting of the Westway
H. D. Club last week they offered
cherry sprouts to any persons
who would come and dig them.
The trees are sour cherries and
proved producers.
Try a Want Ad!
And Mrs. Louie Olson and Mrs.
Liston Wilson of Wyohe are of-
fering strawberry plants to per-
sons who will dig them. However,
they warn that these offers will
probably be withdrawn soon as
they will have to get busy at
their own gardening, so persons
who are interested are warned to
get on the Job—quick.
