Water and tramping are the two keys to quickly chang ing dry leaves to a well-rotted state, the leaf mold so valuable for improving the soil round your most valued plants. So keep the hose handy when you're piling your leave. By wetting down and tramping each layer, you'll be able to pack away, a veritable haystack leaves in a fairly small space.

I Better wear galoshes or boots. Pile in the center and tramp I toward the sides keeping a fairly or dished top as your goal. With your leaves so piled and "soaked, winter rains and snows will continue your good work. Don't Include twiggy branches. They keep your pile more open and they rot at a slower rate.

Homemade leaf mold made In this fashion can contain every type of leaves. By all means include oak leaves if you have them. Don't be miBled by the old saying that oak leaves are acid. -Laboratory tests show that any acid content is lost as the leaves brown. The soil of a garden with IT'S TIME TO Plant peonies.

Start bowl of paperwhUe narcissi tor holiday bloom. 1 Take down any large tree limbs necessary while soil is hard. 9 Start making out lilac orders. which I am very familiar started as a wood lot, has had the leaves from eight large oaks composted 'and worked into it' quarter-acre each year now for the past SO years. It atill tests In the neutral range, Is on the acid side of center by a barely perceptible margin.

No lime has ever been added. Homemade leaf mold is every bit as valuable as peat moss for opening up clay soils or making soils more retentiv of water. Time to Store Lawn, Porch Chain a good idea to store lawn I and porch chair now where they'll be easy to get at when you want to paint them this winter. Now's the time to bring in some good topsoil. A large pail or boxful can be wonderfully hanly when you decide some win-tct day to pot up some bulbs, start some seeds or repot a fern.

Now' also the time to bring in mall things that will grow happily In a small landscape housed In a fish bowl or other clear container called formally a ter- rarium. Ferns, small sedums and even sempervivums are good if you don't keep your container too tightly covered. Coleus cut' tings will add color. Ferns Can Be Moved Satisfactorily Now I FIND lots of gardener don't realize that ferns can be moved very satisfactorily fiow. Little ferns and big ones like.

The big ostrich ferns have sizable knobs above soil at this time of year. Handle these without Injury and keep as much of the scaly underground rootstalk you can retain on each. You can rover these with oil for the winter. Put them at least three Inches under 1 1 and stake and mulch the spot. Then, If your planting doesn't get finished this fall, you'll have them all ready to plant 'permanently In the spring.

But if you have both fern and some tulips still unplanted, this Is the time to set both, so the uncurling frond of the fern will back the tulip when'thelr cups re the prettiest next May. You may feel the urge to tidy up your shrubs a bit now. That's quite all right with both kinds of hydrangeas, privet and barberry hedges, also bush honeysuckle If not grown for the flowers. But if you have flowers in mind, don't prune forsythia, lilacs, splreas or wetgelas until after they have bloomed next spring. In this central area there's no rush about hilling up roses with soil providing you'll have It on hand after we've had a night or two when morning show a crust of frozen soil.

Collar to keep the soil from sliding will save you extra In toting soil to mound the base of each rose. New Residents' Club Luncheon New Residents' club will have a luncheon meeting at 1 p. m. Wednesday at Tounkers tearoom. Mrs.
