Pool or fountain beautiful addition to gardens
TED BRICE
The Garden Editor
Probably no single feature
adds as much charm to a
garden as an aquatic
display. In addition to grace
and beauty, there are both
tranquilizing and re
juvenating qualities in
water - great for today's
besieged and battered
nerves. And yet, how many
of us have the beauty of
water in our gardens'1 There
is no reason for the untor
tunate neglect of this eas\
satisfying way to garden
From a fountain to a trickl
ing waterfall to a pool as
large or as small as one s
resourses will allow , there is
some sort of water display
that will fit every situation
Perhaps the most
desirable choice is the
garden pool The thoughtful
ly planned, well-placed
aquatic pool with interesting
plants, colorful fish and in
triguing reflections makes a
focal point of serenity that
adds to the grace of any
garden, large or small. Also,
the pool can easily have a
fountain or waterfall incor-
porated into its design
Today a do-it-yourselfer
can install a garden pool
relatively easily and inex-
pensively by doing the ex
cavating himself and using
one of several methods to
line or seal the hole
Instead of concrete,
fiberglass or metal which
are good pool lining
materials but which unfor-
tunately share the disadvan-
tage of being difficult for the
amateur, consider one of the
following easier methods
Sink, or partially sink, a
child's plastic wading pool
or a galvanized watering
trough available at farm
supply stores1 which has
been painted both sides w ith
an epoxy paint Blue paint
gives the illusion of deeper
water, black paint reflects
the sky and clouds on bright
days but tends to look
gloomy on dreary days
Use a flexible plastic pool
liner designed especially for
this purpose Available in a
number of shapes, sizes and
depths, these start at
about $10 for a 2x3 foot size
Use one of the sheets of
heavy plastic made especial-
ly for lining pools These last
a long time and conform to
any shape
Apply several inches of
smooth clay worked to mud-
pie consistency to sides and
bottom of hole This makes a
natural pool
Pour a special sealing
material ifor use with clay-
type soils only) into the
water of the newly dug and
filled pool When using this
be sure to follow the instruc-
tions concerning any waiting
period from date of apphca
tion to time of planting and
introduction of fish
Consult the yellow pages of
the telephone directory for
the nurseries which stock
aquatic plants and supplies.
For aesthetic reasons, con-
cealing the edge is often
desirable with concrete,
fiberglass, plastic or
metallined pools Rocks,
stones, bricks and/or plants
make attractive edges. The
natural or clay-lined pool
usually needs no concealing
edge for appearance’s
sake However, with any
type of pool it's advisable to
erract about 12xl5-inch bar-
rier of some kind, such as
concrete, brick or wire to
prevent a boom in the toad or
frog population Toads and
frogs seek out water in which
to lay their eggs. These are
stringy and messy looking
and later hatch into tad-
poles Also, frogs have a
habit of croaking all night
long
A number of our local wild
water plants adapt well to
culture in the home garden
pool Such species as water
hyacinth, American lotus,
the native Nymphaea water

Evolution of telescope is traced

ery and evolution of the tele
scope in “Through the Look

multimedia presentation ex
plores the development of
the telescope from the crude
spy glass used by Galileo to
the most powerful telescope
envisioned, the giant Texas
Telescope proposed for the
McDonald Observatory in
Texas' Scenic Davis Moun-
tains
With a looking glass that
magnified only 33 diameters,
Galileo discovered the
moons of Jupiter, the rings of
Saturn and the stars of the
Milky Wav. Galileo's simple
refracting telescope was im
proved when Isaac Newton
invented the reflecting tele-
scope. predecessor of instru-
ments used by modern ob-

scope at McDonald Observa-

300-inch primary mirror will
allow astronomers to see
further into deep space than
ever before

lillies, arrowhead, pickerel
weed and swamp iris are
beautiful, of easy culture
and grow naturally in our
area. In addition to these,
numerous cultivated species
are commercially available
for use in almost any size
pool.
Some water plants are
floaters, requiring no soil in
which to grow, such as the
beautiful water hyacinth and
floating heart.
Usually, water lillies re-
quire at least 18 inches of
water depth (24 is even bet-
ter), full sun and still or only
slightly moving fresh water.
Most gardeners prefer to
plant their lillies in plastic or
wooden containers of rich
soil rather than directly in
the mud of the bottom of the
pool. Since container size,
planting method and depth
requirements vary with dif-
ferent species, follow the
supplier’s planting instruc
tions Generally, however
water lillies like a rich soil
and fertilizer every year
