on logging in East Texas and on cattle
drives The children learned of the tools
and methods used in the early days of the
logging and ranching industries. A fully
furnished chuckwagon was a highlight
of the tour. Their visit to the Institute
ended with a panoramic slide presenta-
tion of the activities and events of the
various cultures represented by the
people of Texas,
After leaving the Institute, the
students journeyed to the Alamo where
they git to see artifacts and metnori-
bilia of the defenders of the Alamo
They viewed the exhibits and read the
plaques which told much of the story
of the defenders last days in their fight
for Texas independence. In the museum
the students saw a scale model depicting
the fight between the Alamo's defenders
and Santa Anna's troops. They concluded
their trip by purchasing souvenirs be-
fore returning home.
Petunias Are
Popular Plants
Petunias are among the most popular
bedding plants for Texas gardens. These
dowering annuals grow in a variety of
colors. shajies and forms and are well
adapted to most areas of the state.
The "Madness" series of petunias
has been named by the Texas Agricul-
tural Extension Service as the
outstanding selection for 1987. These
plants are heat tolerant and liear quanti-
ties of long-lasting, colorful flowers.
Varieties in this floribunda class include
White Madness, Summer Madness,
Sheer Madness, Pink Madness, Coral
Madness. Red Madness, Rose Madness.
Plum Madness and Burgundy Madness.
Petunias are used most effectively
in garden beds. borders, containers and
hanging baskets. Some are even suitable
for use as winter-flowering house plants.
Petunia transplants can be purchased
form local garden centers or grown from
seed. To start your own, sow seed in-
doors 8-10 weeks before the desired
planting date. Seed are extremely
small and should be "lightly” sprinkled
on the surface of containers filled with
potting soil. They do not require a cover-
ing layer of peat moss or other material.
When seedlings emerge, they should
la transplanted to individual containers
as they reach the 2-3 leaf stage. Plant
outdoors, 8-12 inches apart, when danger
of frost has passed. Petunias like full
sun but will tolerate partial shade For
best results, be sure to select a garden
site with good drainage and adequate
moisture.

parenting skills learned in class
