The improvement in quality and

tiemonstrations conducted bv the A ' '

venture in landscaping depends
chiefly upon favorable climatic con-
ditions, those of 1950 were the least
helpful in many years. Prolonged
and widespread absence of natural
moisture prevailed at critical periods.
Notwithstanding, 19,403 homes in
200 counties made improvements in
home grounds, reports Sadie Hat-
