  • Lazy Gardener Guide Book Pages
    “The Earth Laughs in Flowers” —ÊRalph Waldo Emerson “ The Lazy Gardener’s Guide” —ÊRevised and Updated by Brenda Beust Smith “Above all, our gardens should be fun!” —ÊBrenda Beust Smith Let’s get something straight right off the bat. People always say I must have a beautiful yard. Truth is, I don’t even have what I would call a “landscape.” I have a “Lazy Gardener’s Laboratory” … The “Lazy Gardener” column started when I was a Chronicle reporter. Alice Hodges was gardening columnist. I had a new house and plants from my grandmother and mother. When Alice left, the managing editor, Don Pickles, asked if anyone could write the column until he could find another “real horticulturist.” I was successfully growing elephant ears and monkey grass. I said, “I'll do it!” Since it was a temporary assignment, Beverly Harris, my editor, gave me permission to do a humorous column, “The Lazy Gardener” — a la Erma Bombeck. Don didn’t care as long as I gave him what-to-do-each month tips, like Alice did, to tape to his refrigerator. I wrote of my gardening successes (and failures) and interviewed plant society members. What an education! The column continued, I became a Master Gardener and, later, I teamed up with Sally McQueen Squire, the Bulb Lady, a master horticulturist and a stickler for doing things right. (Through her River Bend Co., my horticultural education continues to this day.) Back then our plants came mainly from California and Florida. Weakened by our heavy spring/fall rains, intensely hot summers or prolonged droughts, they were prey to insects and disease.

    The International Harvester Company produced a long line of the McCormick-Deering Farmall tractor. The first Farmall was manufactured in 1924, and the most popular model, the M, was produced from 1939 to 1952. 1931. This Farmall advertisement was obtained and used by permission from the Wisconsin Historical Society, which houses the McCormick-International Harvester Collection, image number WHi-11755. 154 The Road I Grew Up On FARM EQUIPMENT When one thinks of farm machinery, the images that come to mind depend a lot on how much one knows about farming as well as what era and level of agricultural sophistication one is envisioning. In Grant Wood’s 1930 painting “American Gothic” the implement in the hand of the somber Iowa farmer is a pitchfork. Implements of a similar nature from that time period included the heavy steel scoop shovel, spade, scythe, hoe, rake, and bushel basket. There were also barn accessories such as ropes, pulleys, hay slings, horseshoes, horse collars, and harnesses. Dad got his college degrees in agricultural and mechanical engineering and had little, if any, interest in the technology of barns, putting up hay, or draft horses. I used to enjoy hanging out in his shop, watching him invent such things as an eight-row corn planter in the early 1950s or a bicycle rack for my car in the 1970s. He had angle iron, flat iron, channel iron, galvanized pipe fittings, structural pipe, wheels and bearings from old machines, roller chains, ag link chains, cables, iron strapping, mesh wire, reinforcing bars, bolts and washers, electric motors, hydraulic hose, old tires, used vehicles, and other items stashed away in his shop, the grove, and other places around the farm.
