Rose Notes.

Editor Floral Department:
| am quite interested in Mr.. Roberts
article OF how to grow roses. am grow
ing good many, or trying to. have
several thousand grated roses coming
on that bid now for fine results. also
have over 1000 cuttings OF our native
"Arbor Rose out for budding in June.
| much prefer gratis to buds, as when a
graft there are no sprouts to bother, which
is often the case from buds. | have 500
Marechal Neil gratis planted in my nur-
sely that are starting well, and hope I
can in part supply our people with that
finest of all roses; but on it's own roots it
is SO often a failure in our Florida sand.
Mr. Roberts says: "Among Others will he
found good all the China and Polyantha
and also the Noses" AS far as am
concerned, l think Mr. Roberts is sadly
off on the Moses, for in the five years
have been here have never seen a bios
rom, or even a bud on Moss Rose.

FROM an exchange we clip an article
giving very plain and ample directions for
constructing n cheap summer-house We
do not remember ever having seen one in
this State, but feel assured that if once
introduced into our yards and gardens
they would become very popular. With
a hammock slung beneath their friendly
shade, together with rustic Seats they
would soon become a favorite lounging
place. In place Of the Hop Vine, for this
State at least, We would recommend the
Vegetable Sponge dish Rag Gourd), asst
makes such rapid growth and forms SO
dense a shade. The Moon Flowers will
attain far greater perfection here than at
the North, and by using our native Vel
low Jessamine the summer-house may be
made tO.look attractive the year round.
Many other vines, such as Morning Glo-
ries, Ipomeas, Cypress Vine, Thunber-
gias, ETC., may also be employed in con-
nection. with the above. Try a summer
house this season and report results.

The Chinese Yam or Cinnamon Vine
Oioscorea batatas) referred to in the AG-
RIcULTURIsT OF February Goth as rare
tuber' is not rare or new by any means,
being quite commonly cultivated at the
North. 1t was introduced into cultiva-
ton as early as 1888, and several years
ago itwas introduced into this country
with great flourish of trumpets, and
was to drive the Irish potato out of ex-
istence. 1t is a very neat and pleasing
ornamental vine and well worthy of
place in every yard. The following oc-
Cured in an editorial in the Florida Far
mer and Fruit Grower of May is, 1888
SIN the Lake county exhibit at the Sub
Tropical there was plate of peculiar
looking objects labeled SAir Potatoes. ,"

species OF Dioscorea, and we should esteem
it favor if some one would furnish us
with the growers address.

Moss Roses in Florida.

We have frequently seen it stated that
Moss Roses would not bloom in thisState.
They would grow thrifty enough, but
bud and bloom they would not. This
seems to be the experience and opinion of
our correspondent, Mr. James Mott, as
evidenced by the closing remarks Of his
Rose Notes" There are, it is said, ex-
ceptions to all rules, and Mr.. Roberts
doubtless had good reasons for recon-.
mending the Moses as good for this
State. If he has any peculiar modus
operandi for inducing Moss Roses to pro-
duce their exquisite buds, we trust he will
give it through these columns.
During a recent visit to Orange county
we were shown some thrifty looking Moss
Roses, and was inforn ed that they
bloomed once year as they do at the
North. Soon after our return we visited
the Pomona Nurseries, near Dade City,
and the proprietor, Mr.. Stephen Soar,

Carnations.

Editor Floral Department.:
Have had experience in raising Carna-
tons? "Piles of it," Success? Nix. Still,
not entire failures, as some thrifty young
plants from cuttings growing on my
porch will testify. But oh, dear! what
trials and tribulations of spirit Eve went
throughin seven years. Don't talk. And
yet-well, I'll tell you some of them and
maybe some one may profit by my fail
ures. First, | tried them in the shade.
They rotted. Then | tried sunshine. They
dried up, and the wind blew them all to
pieces. Put them on thesouth porch, too
hot; on the north side, too cold; and,
well | "toted' those cans and boxes
around until grew desperate. Soil, first
too rich and then too poor. 1t makes
me nervous yet to think of it. ButI
guess I've got there at last. | have one
Carnation which fills a large square can
Ga five gallon kerOsene) and has run over
the sides and down them, until it is q
mass of green and blossoms. 1t has
twenty to forty buds and blossoms all
the time, and two years ago it was a lit
tie spindling cutting, and didn't know
whether to live or die. Now for the soil.
1t was taken from a cow-pen lot, all the
top dirt being scraped off, and just the
black loan used. The whole can was
filed; no compost, no drainage, and the
rooted cutting set in the middle, and how
it did grow. Had a fine red one, but be-
ing away from home, it persisted forwant
OF water, but had small cutting under
glass, and it is growing and budding
now. You need not be afraid of getting
the soil too rich, If it is well pulverized.
have seen some growing in the ground,
but they must be well mulched and shaded
from the hot sun and wind. The winds
do more harm than the sun, think. The
best place have found for the plants is
on a south porch, close to the wall, which
will break the force of the wind.

A Cheap Summer-House.

Oummer-hOuSe6, or "arbOFS, as they
used to be called, are not seen on many
lawns or in the front yard, but where the
size of the grounds will admit of it
would advise making one for two reasons.
First, that the children may havea ''play-
house" and because they can be made
quite ornamental. / know of one made
more expressly for the children, but 1T
soon became afavorite resortforall mem
bers OF the family, and the verdict is,
that we couldn't do without it in sum-
mer." 1t is large enough to allow of a
hammock's being swung there, and several
chairs find place beneath it's hospitable
roof of green, and more than once last
summer an improvised picnic took place
there, which "all hands" enjoyed greatly
Of course a summer-house can be con-
structed in such manner as to make it
quite expensive, but the one 1 have in
mind cost less than So for the material
and about one days labor, and is quite
as pretty as many more elaborate affairs,
and answers it's purpose quite as well.
And it can be made by ''the boys" who
will enjoy the making of it very much if
you plan it for them.
This particular summer house was made
by setting four cedar posts, from which
the bark was not removed, in Underground,
twelve feet apart each way. They were
left about seven feet above the ground.
Strips were nailed from post to post, all
around. Then four rafters were nailed
on, these rafters starting from each cor
ner and meeting in the center. Your roof
will be steep or fat, according to the
length of rafters used. Light strips were
tackled from rafter to rafter in zigzag
manner, to furnish support for vines
when they began to "branch out" The
sides can be latticed up if you care to en-
close it with vines. think they are pref
tier when the sides are left open. This is
simply q matter of taste, and whoever
constructs such house will build it to
suit him or herself, of course. | offer
these suggestions simply as an outline of
what may be done.
Our summer-hOuse was covered by the
last of June with the pretty foliage of
very luxuriant Hop Vine. We have few
more rapid growing vines than the Hop,
and it forms a thick mass of foliage,
through which the sun cannot penetrate
1t can be relied on to produce earlier re-
suits in the way of shade than any an
nual. But if you want Towering vines,
use Morning Glories and Moon Flowers,
planting one of the latter at each corner
and at least half a dozen of the former
about them. The Moon Flowers will grow
more rapidly than the Morning Glories,
and get up out OF their way by the time
the latter come into bloom, and they will
take upon themselves the task of cover
ing the roof, while the Others festoon the
posts and run along the cross-strips. The
effect will be much better-at least before
the vines cover it---if poles with the bark
on are used all through the construction
of such house or frame, instead of part
poles and part strips One wholly of
poles will have quite q pleasing rustic
effect, which one of linked" material will
not have.-Ladies' Home Journal.

INA UGURAL ADDRESS.

The inaugural address Of President
Harrison, which was read this morn
ing throughout the nation, is an able
and ingenious state document, but dis.
tincivetly republican and bristling with
partisan bias. As the frat expression
Of the new president, which may be re-
garded as foreshadowing, to some ex-
tent, Of the policy Of the new admin
istration, we deem it Of sufficient i'm
portance to place before our readers ex.
tracts giving the utterances Of the new
chief executive upon the current po-
litlcal issues that stand out most prom
inently before the public mind. AZ
ter few glittering generalities by way
Of introduction, the president address
ses himself to the protective system
which he discusses and defends with
vigor. Proceeding he answers the in.
quiry concerning his
SOUTHERN POLICY
very ingeniously as follows
II have altogether rejectedthe sug-
gestion Of special executive policy
for any section Of our country. 1t is
the duty Of the executive to admins

the instramentalities pointed out and
provided by the constitution, all laws
ENACTED by congress. These laws are
general and their administration should
be uniform and equal, as . citizen may
not elect what laws he will obey, neith-
er may the executive elect which he
will enforce. The duty to obey and
execute embrace the constitution in
its entirety and the whole code Of laws
enacted under it. The evil example
Of permitting individuals, corporations
or communities to nullify laws because
they cross some selfish or local inter-
ests or prejudices, is full of danger,
