of whatever variety is employed will creep
up and over such support, completely
clothing it in verdure, and soon the pend

most conspicuous aud attractive objects on
the premises. If woodbino is planted the
first frost will convert it intoa monument
of scarlet and crimson, which, if cont1asted
with background Of evergreens and oaks,
will be brilliantly beautiful. It often hap
pens that tree up and dies" where its loss

To Keep Shaded Places Green.
From the Germantown Telegraph.
Es',ecially in the front yards Of dwellings,
both In town and country, which are much
shaded, We often see the ground completely
bare, not living thing being perceptable.
Sometimes there are many nearly nude,
struggling limbs lying upon the ground or
very near it, which are unsightly and every
way worthless, that ought to be cut away.
This would give room for the growing there
OF some plant or vine that would be adapted
to it, and which would not only cover the
naked spot and make it living green"
bnt would be adding much to the general
appearance Of the premises. The best vine
for this purpose is undoubtedly the peri
winkle. It will grow most anywhere IN the
shade if the proper attention is given to it,
but not otherwise. It is . beautiful vine
and will densely cover the ground, produo-
ing nearly the whole season q very pretty
