Garden tips and fishing note from Tripoli Leader Aug 20 1975
Potted mums provide true plant habit and color for instant displays. Plant for 6 to 8 hours sun daily. Water weekly if rains are scarce and fertilize soil well. Transplant evergreens now to establish roots before freeze and apply desiccants to reduce moisture loss. Lawn seeding timing spans mid August to early September by region. Bert Manning and son Joe of Van Meter catch 25 and 30 pound flathead catfish in South Raccoon River.
