Center Offers Gardening Tips

Those in a gardening quandary can easily get some help in solving their problem. The Master Gardener Clinic and Resource Center at 222 N. Havana is open from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Mondays through Thursdays.

It’s staffed by master gardeners who will help gardeners find information and will diagnose plant and insect problems. A variety of brochures and fact sheets are also available.

Call 533-2048 to talk to an expert, or just drop in.

Need more room(s)? This may not be the epitome of temporary but it has to be close: The Repcon International company is marketing Create-A-Room accessories made from corrugated cardboard forms. The products include a bed headboard, magazine basket, wastebasket, window valance, three-piece folding screen and tissue box toppers.

Some forms require folding and hot glue, and prices range from $2 to $40. But you can use your own cardboard, too. Plans to cut the forms out yourself are $9.95 plus $2.95 for shipping. For information on precut forms, send $3 and a SASE to: Repcon International, Dept. NR-02, P.O. Box 1435, Nixa, MO 65714. , DataTimes
