They also had confi dence in their vision of what the restau-rant—the full name is Oliver, a Bis-tro—could be. After they bought it from former owner Robert Bice in June 2006, they gave the place a new look, a new menu and a new schedule and set about the task of making Oliver their own.

World of Paine
By Diccon hyAtt
Bordentown may be the one place in the world where the most progressive of America’s founding fathers gets his due.
After all, most of the great colo-nial revolutionaries didn’t advo-cate for abolishing slavery. Most of them never spoke out in favor of women’s rights. Most of them thought only landowners should be allowed to vote.
Many today wave away these shortcomings by saying that abo-litionism, feminism and universal suffrage were ideas whose time had not yet come.
But those excuses ring hollow if you read the writings of Thomas Paine, the author of the radical pamphlet “Common Sense” that was the best-seller of 1776. At dif-ferent times, Paine wrote in favor of women’s rights, fulminated against slavery and proposed a form of government that would have been more democratic than the one that was eventually adopted.
Yet Paine is one of the most overlooked historical fi gures from that time.
“He was really kind of a forgot-ten founding father,” said Doug Palmieri, president of the Thomas Paine Society of Bordentown.
Palmieri is one of a handful of citizens who are trying to make
Waterfrontconstruction set for AprilBy AleXAnDRA yeARly
Bordentown Township is ready to make a waterfront transit vil-lage a reality.
The township has approved plans for the construction of the Bordentown Waterfront Tran-sit Village to begin in April. The 90-acre site, which has been vacant for more than 20 years, has the township’s blessing to be trans-formed into a place where its resi-dents will have access to the river.
The plan calls for market-rate apartments, affordable senior hous-ing, commercial shops, a fi shing pier and walkway, parks and the construction of a River Line station.
It’s the fi rst time in nearly 100 years that the property, the only section of Bordentown Township that touches the Delaware River, will be accessable to the public. Before that, public use was pre-vented because of industrial needs.
The location had been operated by the North American Marine Salvage Company up until the early 1980s, when the ship salvage yard closed down. In 2002-2003, the township considered allowing a power plant to be constructed in the abandoned space, but after numerous complaints and protests from residents, the township did not follow through with the project.
In 2005, Jeffrey Albert approached the township with a new proposition.

Globetrotting jazz band calls Princeton homeBy Mike [email protected]
You may think of jazz music, an art form made famous in the post World War I era of the 1920s and ‘30s, as appealing to an older crowd, but in the Princeton-based Philadelphia Jazz Orches-tra, you’ll find much younger jazz enthusiasts channeling their inner Coltranes.
PJO is the creation of conduc-
tor Joe Bongiovi, who works as the jazz director at Princeton High School. He decided to form this summer orchestra 10 years ago after noticing that many of his students don’t practice their instruments over the breaks between school years.
“The original concept was to keep kids playing during sum-mer months. They lose muscle and they lose ability,” he said.
The 23-piece ensemble
includes several woodwind, brass, string, and percussion instrumentalists, as well as three vocalists. Ranging in age from 15 to 21, all members are high school or college students hail-ing from Princeton and central New Jersey.
Entrance to the group is through invitation, and Bongiovi often asks his top students and talented musicians from neigh-
Ram on the lamImplausible theft robs Nassau Street of a familiar fixture
By SaMantha Sciarrotta
When a 36-year-old, 200-pound stuffed ram disappears from a popular Nassau Street storefront, people are going to take notice.
Lindi, the unofficial mascot of the Landau woolens store in Princ-eton, was reported as stolen on July 17. The Princeton Borough Police Department is treating it as a theft.
Robert Landau, store owner, said that representatives for media outlets from the Associated Press all the way to newspapers in Ice-land, where the ram hails from, have contacted him about the crime.
He said his family remains hopeful that the media coverage surrounding the left will result in Lindi’s return to his home.
The Landau family acquired Lindi in 1976 after they got in touch with a taxidermist and requested the highest-quality ram available. The ram the taxidermist had in mind was still alive, so the family waited for two years to let him live out the rest of his life. It cost $10,000 to stuff, store, and ship the ram from Iceland to the United States.
Landau said he does not believe money to be a motivator, as there is almost no resale value for Lindi.
He said the family bought the

Academy keeps youths in step with policeBy SaMantha [email protected]
For one week each summer, a group of about 20 children gathers to investigate a murder, observe court proceedings, and learn how to administer a field sobriety test, among many other activities.
They get the opportunity to do this at the Princeton Township Police Department and Princeton Borough Police Department’s annual Youth Police Academy. Township or borough residents entering sixth, seventh, or eighth grade have a chance to learn the inner workings of the police department, fire department, court system, and more.
“We want to keep them edu-cated on why and how we do the things we do,” said Princeton Township Det. Ben Gering. “It makes them more familiar with the police and bridges the gaps of understanding. We can develop a rapport with the community.”
The academy began in 2004 after the township’s community action team came up with the ini-tial idea. This year’s academy is scheduled to be held from August 20 to August 24.
“We wanted to find a different way to connect with the younger members of the community in a more positive way instead of only coming across in an emergency situation,” Gering said.
The week is packed full of activi-See POLICE, Page 8 See JAZZ, Page 6

Canoe Paddle offers different perspective on Lake Carnegie
Princeton’s Lake Carnegie, which is part of the Millstone River, is home to many plants and animals, and the presence of these life forms can tell us a great deal about the quality of the water.
On Saturday, Aug. 4 from 9:30 a.m. to noon, The Stony Brook–Millstone Water-shed Association will host a paddle trip for local residents who are interesting in dis-covering the different forms of wildlife that reside on the lake. Participants will learn about the connections between animal life and water pollution.
The trip will be led by Naturalist Jeff Hoa-gland, Education Director of the watershed.
“What I really want to do is get people to understand the lake as a home for other creatures,” he said. “We want this to be an educational experience.”
These “creatures” include a wide variety of aquatic wildlife, such as turtles, minnows, and crayfish. Participants will have the opportu-nity to catch and study their own specimens.
Also living near the lake are several differ-ent types of waterfowl, including Great Blue Herons, Green Herons, and Swallows.
“Residents may already be familiar with swallows but on this trip, they’ll get to see them up close,” Hoagland said. “A highlight of the trip could be spotting a bald eagle. They are at nest nearby.”
Participants will also spend time observ-ing the different types of insects that live on the lake.
“Insect life will indicate the quality of the water in that system,” Hoagland said. “Some insects are intolerant of pollution.”
The habitation of mayflies and caddisflies,
for example, will suggest that the organic pollution levels of the lake are relatively low.
Hoagland expects both species will be present, and that participants will also see dragonflies and damselflies hunting along the edges of the lake.
Participants will have the opportunity to choose whether they wish to paddle a canoe or kayak, and Hoagland will help groups and individuals decide which mode of transpor-tation will be easiest to maneuver.
He does not want prospective participants to be deterred by the fact that they will have to paddle their own boats, as the speed will be slow and leisurely.
“This trip is geared towards folks who want a relaxed exploration of wildlife experi-ence,” he said.
Hoagland is excited to showcase Lake Carn-
egie and its inhabitants to those who attend the trip. He is proud that the watershed works hard to preserve the quality of the water.
“I see this trip as a celebration of the lake. We’re lucky where we live that we have clean water,” he said.
The Lake Carnegie Paddle is appropri-ate for individual adults, small groups, and families with children ages eight and older. Registration is required and space is lim-ited. Canoes and kayaks will be provided by Griggstown Canoe and Kayak Rental in Turning Basin Park. The fee per person will range from $25–$50, depending on the watercraft chosen. For more information or to register, contact the Stony Brook-Mill-stone Watershed Association. Phone: (609) 737-7592. On the Web: thewatershed.org.

boring schools if they would like to join.“I guess he saw potential in me and
invited me along as a learning experience,” said Emily Feuer, an incoming senior at PHS who plays trumpet in PJO.
While students could potentially practice their instruments with any style of music, Bongiovi chose to form a jazz orchestra specifically to keep the summers fun and creative. He feels that his students bene-fit greatly from the improvisation element that jazz allows.
“Jazz is their ability to express them-selves outside of classical and traditional concert music,” he said.
The group may have members much younger than the standard jazz ensemble, but Feuer enjoys not conforming to the traditional mold.
“I like the contradiction,” she said. “I’m a girl, and I’m white, and I’m young. I don’t fit the jazz stereotypes.”
Some members, like PHS graduate Rick Rein, have been honing their skills for years. Rein was introduced to jazz at a young age through various music pro-grams in the Princeton public school system.
“I like performing jazz a lot,” said Rein, a music performance major at the Univer-sity of the Arts who plays in PJO’s trumpet section. “It challenges you mentally and
physically.”Other members developed an interest in
jazz more recently.“I’ve been a classical pianist for ten years
and I got interested in jazz music last years when I came to PHS and saw the band and how much fun they were having,” said incoming PHS junior Aditya Raguram, a pianist in PJO.
Frank Rein, who graduated from PHS in June and who plans to join his brother, Rick, at the University of the Arts next year to study composition, serves double duty as trombonist and arranger for the group.
“What I have to do as an arranger is adapt music for a larger instrumentation,” he said, explaining that he often takes music that was never intended for a big band to perform, and creates individual instrument parts for each musician.
“I may have to take a song written for five singers and a rhythm section and adapt it for our group,” he said.
While PJO plays standards by jazz leg-ends like Glenn Miller, original arrange-ments of popular music by artists such Nora Jones, Michael Jackson, Aretha Franklin, and others also fill their 100 song repertoire.
“The cool thing about Frank’s arrange-ments is that he does a lot of songs that people have heard of,” Feuer said.

PJO recently returned from a mid-July excursion to Europe, having been invited to perform for two afternoons at the Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland and touring for another eight days in Italy.
“It was a whirlwind,” Feuer said of per-forming 10 concerts in 10 days.
Throughout the trip, PJO performed in a variety of spaces - from an outdoor stage next to Lake Geneva, to the Castle of Pro-ceno, to the piazza outside of their hotel.
“It was a really great experience,” Ragu-ran said.
Audiences at the Montreux Jazz Festi-val had gathered from around the world, while the performances in Italy drew much more local crowds. The group chooses their repertoire based on who is in the audience, sticking to big band favorites if the bulk of the listeners are older, playing popular tunes if the group is younger, and mixing it up for a crowd varying in age.
“We base our selection on our audi-ences. We play it by ear on who we’re play-ing for,” Bongiovi said.
Bongiovi is proud of how his students handled the pressure of a rigorous tour.
They gained experience working with musicians and professional sound tech-nicians from around the world, and con-ducted interviews with the foreign press. Most importantly, he felt that they gained confidence in their own skills, working beside other talented musicians.
“Although they’re a student group, they’re even better than some pro groups,” Bongiovi said.
PJO will conclude its summer with sev-eral concerts throughout the month of August, including outdoor performances on Thursday, Aug. 2, at Princeton Shop-ping Center and on Wednesday, Aug. 22, at McCarter Theater Center’s Block Party. The band will also play two gigs at Chris’s Jazz Cafe in Philadelphia -- on Wednes-day, Aug. 1, and Thursday, Aug. 9. And, in what has become an annual tradition, the PJO will perform Saturday, Aug. 4, at the Kennedy Center for Performing Arts in Washington.
Rick Rein is looking forward to enter-taining and impressing audiences for the remainder of the season.
“After we’ve gone on tour and played
every night for ten days, we sound the best we will sound all summer,” he said.

ties ranging from a basic tour of the police department to a mock crime scene investi-gation, in which they learn how to use tools, evidence, DNA, and fingerprints to solve a mock murder case. The CSI program was introduced only last year, but Gering said it is already a favorite among participants.
The children also observe court, view fire department and emergency response dem-onstrations, and practice car stops. A sur-rounding police department, often Robbins-ville, conducts a K-9 demonstration, which Gering said is another of the children’s favorite activities.
They even have a tow truck crash two cars together to create an accident scene.
Gering said these different groups and departments are responsive to and are eager to participate in the academy.
“Everybody’s familiar with it and enjoys being a part of it,” he said. “If they can’t sup-port us by being here, they let us come to them.”
Sgt. Fred Williams has been with the camp since its inception. A former Marine, he teaches a class on leadership and assists with drill for the academy.
“I teach customs and courtesies from a paramilitary perspective,” he said. “March-ing and following instructions transcends the police department by teaching them to be both a follower and leader. The police department is the backdrop, but these prin-ciples are applicable in so many real-life situ-ations. They’re ahead of the game if they practice these traits now.”
He said the children learn, among other concepts, a sense of responsibility not only for themselves but also for the community as well.
“It’s up to you to live up to that,” he said. “You may have to step up, whether it’s help-ing your parents around the house, getting
your homework done, or helping a friend in a tutoring situation. It teaches them not to run from their responsibilities and to apply themselves.”
The week ends with a graduation cere-mony. Friends and family of the participants are all welcomed to attend. Gering said that is often the most satisfying part of the academy.
“We didn’t know them when they came in on Monday, but by Friday, we develop friendships and a good rapport,” he said. “Afterwards, when you see them out in the community, they’re always going to say ‘Hi.’ We get emails and phone calls. We still have members of the class of 2004 stop in. The academy is more about the end and what’s developed.”
Williams expressed a similar sentiment, saying the change the children go through during the week is particularly gratifying.
“When they get there, they’re usually not in learning mode,” he said. “At the end, though, they’re very attentive and inter-ested. They surprise themselves. Some of them are there only for their parents, but the next thing you know, they like the fact that they’re marching.”
Gering said another important trait the students develop is an understanding of the police officers themselves.
“It breaks down the barrier of the police car,” Gering said. “They learn who we are, learn our names, and recognize that they can have a conversation with us. It breaks down the stereotype of ‘I can’t talk to the police.’ We welcome them.”
Williams agreed.“It’s always good when you can get a look
at something on the inside,” he said. “What you see or hear on the news or elsewhere can be negative or glamorized, and it’s not always factual. Experiencing that firsthand is a really good thing for those involved.”

ram to give the store’s customers an idea of the kind of products they could purchase.
“We were importing wool from Iceland, so it all fit,” he said.
Landau said Lindi’s base was designed to be only mobile enough for his staff to move it in and out of the store. He said the ram is too big to fit in a car and too heavy for one person to lift.
The ram previously went missing in 1997 after a student from The College of New Jersey took him as a prank. The ram was returned soon after.
“We’ve been saying that every 15 years Lindi likes to go on the lam,” Landau said.
This time around, Landau said he and his staff noticed Lindi was gone sometime in the afternoon on July 17. He said the ram could
have gone missing the day before.“We’ve been looking at surveillance tapes
from other stores in the area, but we haven’t found anything yet,” he said.
He said the family has yet to receive a “ramsom” note.
While Landau said the theft sounds like a joke, he and his family are not treating it as one.
“It’s kind of silly, but at the same time, it’s not,” he said. “It’s valuable to us. It’s a part of our business. Hopefully the novelty of hav-ing a stuffed ram in their home or dormitory wears off. To us, this is important.”
Landau said anyone with information regarding Lindi can contact the Princeton Borough Police Department.

When it comes to the town of Princeton and the sport of swimming, it’s kind of like meshing peanut butter and jelly.
It always goes great together.This summer, it was better than ever. The
Community Park Swim Club of Princeton enjoyed another outstanding season in the Princeton Area Swimming and Diving Asso-ciation, as the swim team went 4-1 in the reg-ular season, and the diving team went 4-0. The swim team is in Division I. The diving team is in Division II.
Not only that, but the Bluefish set a team record for competitors, which are predomi-nantly homegrown products.
“This year’s team is by far the largest group we have ever had with 190 partici-pants,” coach Andy Sichet said. “With the perfect coaches, fantastic parent volunteers, and Community Park staff, the 2012 year has been the smoothest team to head coach. With the brand new facility in place, I think we all had high expectations of our swim and dive team. Neither team has disappointed the Princeton community.”

PASDA team. The Bluefish squad consists of numerous Princeton High swimmers and, as witnessed by the Little Tigers’ success this past winter, Community Park is provid-ing an outstanding feeder system.
Sichertdifferent spelling? inherited the program three years ago from Mark and Amy Coleman, who ran it for a few years after the long tenure of Princeton High coach Greg Hand.
“I spoke with coach Hand this summer about the large legacy he left and the suc-cess of the PHS swim team,” said Sichet, a former swimmer for the powerful St. Joe’s of Metuchen program. “Most of our high school swimmers are PHS swimmers.”
Princeton has long been a hotbed of swim-ming, and it starts at an early age. When it comes to Community Park, the participants are having fun, but do maintain an intensity sometimes not seen at the rec level.
“Our population is very much focused,” *the coach* Sichet said. “They know that by working hard, reward is within reach. Most kids come to practice all five days per week, and every meet we had close to a full team attendance.”

The coach notes that this year’s main point producers were Natalie Hansford, Gabriel Bar-Cohen and Gefen Bar-Cohen, Madeline Hoede-maker, Hannah Ash, Charlotte Singer, Will Stange and Jake Valente “to just name a few we can always count on winning events.”
Despite the fact that Community Park is a recreation summer team, which is more low key than competitive club teams, the Blue-fish still get their share of studs.
“We have a mixture of swimmers,” Sichet said. “From kids who swim only in the sum-mertime to yearround club swimmers. The truth is that all levels have contributed to our successful season. But as a summer recre-ation team, our mission statement is to intro-duce kids to a wonderful sport that rewards individual performance as well as learning to compete as a team. Our primary focus is proper strokes and speed.”

There are not too many places to learn in the Princeton area, but the Princeton Rec-reation Department’s Skateboard Camp provides an outlet for the township’s young aspiring extreme athletes.
Camps run in four week-long sessions. The next one is scheduled for Aug. 6–10 at the Hilltop Skate Park.
“It’s the only place in Princeton where you can find some kind of skating instructor,” said camper Maxwell Gorman.
Myles Ryan enjoys the luxury of using ramps at the camp.
“We don’t have to just practice on the street,” he said.
Program supervisor Joe Marrolli said the camp started four years ago. For the first
two years, it was run in conjunction with Decked Skate Shop.
The next year, NJ Skate Shop took over. Currently, the recreation department com-pletely runs the camp.
Boys and girls aged 7 to 17 are encouraged to attend, but the oldest camper is usually around 14. Counselors say they get around 12 campers per session, and the cap is 25.
“There are kids, they’ve never rode a skateboard before,” said Alex York, a coun-selor. “There are others who are pretty expe-rienced. We try to teach them appropriately to their skill set.”
Marrolli said despite the differences in ages, the campers work together.
“I think the counselors try and incorpo-rate that as well,” he said.
At the camp, it’s all skating, all the time. When the campers take breaks or eat lunch,

Skate camps help get kids off the street (and onto the ramps)the counselors provide them with skate magazines and videos.
“Even when they’re not skateboarding, we just try to have them sort of learn about skateboarding and experience it in differ-ent ways through a magazine or a video or something like that,” York said. “They just kind of can see what it’s all about and see what is possible on a skateboard.”
Camper Asa Liebowitz said the counsel-
ors are helpful and keep him and the other campers motivated.
“The fact that we have counselors who are really good makes it different,” camper Nico Bechtler said. “I can really just sort of focus on my skills and get a lot of instruction and get better at it.”
Skateboarding is different from other organized sports like soccer or baseball, but the staff has no trouble with keeping a struc-

tured learning environment. For example, they play a game called “Zombies” where the counselors gather in the center of the skate park, and the campers have to try to cross from either side without getting caught.
“I think it’s important that there is some sort of teaching aspect involved,” Marrolli said. “Any time a kid comes to camp and learns something new is a good thing in my
mind. It’s different than just a day camp. It’s just a different setting with the sport. It’s def-initely important that there’s some structure involved and that the kids get something out of the camp when they leave.”
York and counselor Sean Ryan said it is satisfying to teach children and see them succeed because of it.
“Watching them progress is the best
part,” Ryan said.With the varying skill levels of all of the
campers, progress happens often. The staff often sees the children running up to their par-ents after camp to tell them what they learned.
“Skateboarding is not something where there are real basics,” Ryan said. “Every-body has their own style. Someone’s going to be scared of one thing and another person
can be scared of something else. We kind of just let them try what they want to try and then help them when they do that.”
The main focus of the camp is to encour-age the skateboarders, no matter how old or how capable, to learn.
“The expectation is making sure every-body comes home saying they did some-thing new,” Ryan said.

Ridge in elite companyKenny Ridge, the former Steinert High
standout, has been awarded an NCAA Post-graduate Scholarship as announced July 2.
Recently graduated from DeSales Univer-sity in Center Valley, Pa., and already enrolled in Villanova University law school, Ridge will begin pursuing a law degree with a focus on sport and entertainment law in the fall.
The scholarship is one of just 29 handed out to male student-athletes on a spring sports team across all divisions. The NCAA awards up to 174 postgraduate scholarships annually, 87 for men and 87 for women. The scholarships are awarded to student-athletes who excel academically and athletically and who are in their final year of intercollegiate athletics competition. Grants of $7,500 each are awarded for fall sports, winter sports and spring sports. The scholarships are one-time, non-renewable grants.
Ridge, DeSales’ Co-Male Scholar Athlete of the Year, graduated with a 3.75 cumulative grade-point average this spring as a double major in sports management and market-ing. He was a three-year standout at second base on the baseball team earning multiple honors during his senior year including All-Freedom Conference First Team, ABCA All-Region Third Team, and Capital One Aca-demic All-District First Team.
He finished the season batting .368, rank-ing second on the team in hits (60) and runs (38), while ranking third in doubles (9) and RBIs (26). He also tied for the team lead with 20 stolen bases and had a .953 fielding per-centage at second base with just 11 errors in 232 chances and turning 28 double plays.
Ridge finished his career with 110 hits (tied for 41st on the school’s all-time list), 83 runs scored (31st), and 39 stolen bases in just three years of playing time. He also ranks seventh among the DeSales leaders with an .830 (39-for-47) stolen base percent-age and 10th with 258 assists.
Lawrence High grad shines on Wesley diamond
Geoff Kimmel of Lawrence was named to the American Baseball Coaches Associa-tion/Rawlings 2012 All-South Region Sec-ond Team.
As a first baseman at Wesley College in Dover, Del., Kimmel led the Capital Athletic Conference with a .425 average, 54 runs bat-ted in and a .495 on-base percentage. He recorded school single-season records for hits (74), doubles (15) and total bases (110).
He also led his team with three triples and was second with five home runs. He ranked No. 1 in the following percentages: .632 slug-ging, 495 on-base, and .995 fielding.
Kimmel is the Wesley all-time leader in games played (165), runs batted in (155) and doubles (45) and second in hits (213) while also ranking the leaders in runs scored (110).
As a senior, he helped lead the Wolverines to the most wins in school-history with 31 in 2012 and a runner-up performance in the ECAC South Tournament.
The Lawrence High alumnus also was named to the CAC All-Academic Team.
Ewing resident finishes soph season swimmingly
Douglas Ranson of Ewing led the Miseri-cordia University men’s swim team to its best finish ever with a second-place showing at the Middle Atlantic Conference Championships. The former Notre Dame High standout won individual titles in personal-record times in the 100 (59.48) and 200 (2:10.43) breast-strokes and helped the 200 and 400 medley relay teams to MAC crowns as well. In addi-tion, he finished eighth in the 50 freestyle (22.47) and was honored with an Athlete of the Month award with the Cougars.
IN OTHER NEWS: Meghan Hayes of Robbinsville went 7-4 as a freshman pitcher for Babson (25-18). Hayes is a Hun School grad … Alicia Norato, a former team captain at Robbinsville High, competed as a fresh-man in the throwing events for the track and field team at Misericordia.

Princeton’s Scott still catching on in baseball
THECOLLEGECROWD
By Mary ann tarr
Former prep standout Jonathan Scott of Princeton helped the Bryant University baseball team to a 33-21 season, including the regular-season championship of the NEC (24-8).
Scott was the starting catcher in big non-conference wins over Liberty (where he hit a key late-inning home run) and Connecticut, and he caught both ends of the conference-clinching doubleheader on the final weekend.
A former captain of the Princeton Day School squad, who led the Panthers to the 2010 Prep B title, Scott played in 29 games as a sophomore at Bryant. He batted .255 with 12 RBI. He had a .391 OBP (second highest on the team) and a .436 slugging percent-age (fourth). Platooning at his position, he handled 110 chances in the field without an error and threw out six baserunners.
Bryant had the most wins in New England and was voted third in the NEIBA Coaches Poll. Bryant will be eligible for the NCAA tournament play next year as it completed its transition into Division I.
This summer, Scott is a member of the Perfect Game Collegiate Baseball League team in Little Falls, N.Y., the Mohawk Valley DiamondDawgs.

Debunking gardening mythsBy craiG DUPee
Throughout the years, I have heard many gardening tips, some of which them are true. But most of them, passed down for generations in some cases, are only half true or false.
Some well-established gardening advice has been misconstrued or is no longer rel-evant due to the ever changing horticulture theory and techniques related to the present day green industry. The following are some gardening tips that have been demystifi ed over past years.
Some say to get sweeter tomatoes, you should add sugar to the planting hole. This is false.
Plants cannot absorb sugar from the soil. Plants make natural sugar called glucose through the process of photosynthesis. The sugar content of a plant is predetermined by the plant’s genetics.
My grandmother always told me to plant peas and potatoes on St. Patrick’s Day. This may be true for her, since she lived most of her life in the area. But within the United States, there are several different hardiness zones, and the last frost date changes every year.
Planting a vegetable garden should be based on the hardiness zone and your last frost date, provided by your agriculture extension service.
When I was in college and working for a large landscape company in the ’80s, it was standard procedure to stake and guy-wire newly planted trees. The recommended practice today is to only stake and guy-wire a tree if it is on a slope or in a windy location.
When trees sway in the wind they are enabling the development of stronger, sta-bilizing roots. If you stake a tree, it may become dependent on this support, prevent-ing the root system from becoming strong and healthy.
One of my pet peeves is, after a tree has been staked for several years, the tree ends up supporting the stakes because the stakes have rotted in the ground and were not removed in a timely fashion.
My wife and I had visited a garden in Phil-adelphia to judge for the city garden contest with the Pennsylvania Horticulture Society. The vegetable garden was outstanding. We talked with the gardener, a gentleman who spoke mostly Italian and had his daughter there to translate.
We were told the reason that his toma-toes were doing so well was because he put crushed egg shells into the planting hole when he planted his tomatoes. This is true. Crushed egg shells help prevent blossom end rot in tomatoes because they provide calcium to the fruit.
The gardener also sprinkled egg shells around his garden to prevent slug damage. Again true. Slugs do not like to crawl over the jagged surface of sharp eggshells.
Most people think that organic pes-ticides are safer than synthetic ones. I always say to make sure you read the label and follow the directions. Organic pesti-cides do have less impact on the environ-ment, but they are still a tool and must be handled with care. It is best to choose the least toxic control option available when using a pesticide.
If you misuse a pesticide — be it organic or synthetic — it could still be harmful. Pyrethrum is considered an organic pes-ticide made from chrysanthemums, but can be toxic to pets and people if handled improperly.
I remember my dad pruning trees around our property when I was younger, and he would always paint or spray a black tar-like substance called pruning paint on the new cut. He said it would prevent insects and fungus from entering the newly cut wood.
It has been found that this treatment can hasten the spread of fungus to the tree’s heartwood. The paint or tar will hold mois-ture near the new wound, which will allow the various fungal decay organisms to grow. The best way to treat any new pruning is to make a clean cut just above the branch collar and leave it alone.
When pruned properly, trees can take advantage of their natural defense mecha-nisms to stave off most decay organisms.
“A weed is a plant that is not only in the wrong place, but intends to stay.” —Sara Stein, My Weeds (1988)
