Ice Cream Made By a New Process.

| have an ice cream freezer that will
freeze cream perfectly instantly. The
cream is put into the freezer and comes
out instantly smooth and perfectly
frozen. This astonishes people and a
crowd will gather 10 see the freezer in
operation and they will all want to try
the cream. You can sell cream as fast
as it can be made, and sell freezers to
many of them who would not buy an
old style freezer. 1t is really curiosity
and you can sell from SIS to So worth of
cream and six to twelve freezers every
day. This makes a good profit these

Flowers About the Home.

Flowers About the Home.
This paper, like those which have
preceded it, and those which may follow
is written in the hopes of helping those
who feel the need of help, those who,
lacking the knowledge Of Horticulture
essential to the proper arrangement and
treatment of flowers, also lack the means
to employ professional skill. I know
that the pleasure to be derived from the
care for and culture of flowers is not to
be measured by the size of the flower
beds or the mum Der of the plants. One
little bed, we'll cared for and tastefully
arranged, will give more pleasure than
the most extensive garden grown in an
incongruous tumble. The wealthiest of
men cannot have everything-of neces-
slty he must leave out something's. 1t
is, therefore, no hardship that we poorer
folks are forced to make selectio
rather than collections-thatw we needs
must learn something Of the nature and
benefits of the plants we are to grow,
before we buy them. For the most
tasteful adornment of home of mod
crate dimensions it is much better to
rely upon few varieties Of plants that
are hardy, free boomers, or, of rich
foliage and easily m anaged, than to buy
great variety of plants, difficult to
grow, scanty of bloom and delicate.
But, whether one has many or few
plants, in order to arrange them prop
erly, that is, to put them where they
will do most good, one must know some
thing of the elementary laws that gov
ern the arrangement of colors to produce
the most pleasing effects. The theory of
colors, as long since laid down by scien-
lists, is very beautiful, and, compare
lively simple, but, when the inexperi-
enced amateur florist attempts to put
the theory into practice, some very form
liable difficulties rise up to embarrass
him. He is astonlshed to find out low
much individuality there is about plants
how much they differ, not only in
size and color and bloom, but also in
habits of growth, abundance, size and
color of toliage-how stubbornly many
of them refuse to adapt themselves to
the places assigned them. So that it
constantly happens that ones favorite
plant has to be given up entirely, or put
in an out Of the way place. because it
cannot be made to fit in with other
plants. He soon learns too that the
choice of plants must be governed very
largely by the shape as we'll as the size
of the beds. Or the size and shape OF
the beds must be made to suit the plants
to be used. But by patient observation,
guided by good taste and sound judg-
ment, all of these obstacles may be
either overcome or avoided, and the
smallest spot of ground made beauti-

art, we are at a loss to decide. The
Towering environments of the New Or
leans residence places, parks and public
squares are faultless in nature-and-art-
mbination in the form of a broad Dor
der around each soft, smooth, green,
grassy lawn, following the line of fenc-
ing on all sides, displays in thoroughly
artistic manner, the beauty, the grace
and briliance of flowers without number
land some without name), that bloom
under our sunny skies.
Herein we have frieze, lighter,
brighter, gayer than the carpet of green
grass; walls that are lighter than the
frieze, for the walls are the skies met by
the leafy branches of trees, shrubs and
clambering vines, where the sunshine
falls golden sheen in one place, in an
other, where the filmy foliage has
changed to broader, darker masses, in
deeper amber tints and around the
shaded edges of dense, more closely clus-
tered tree tops, like FURNISHED brass,
spanned by skies of azure blue and
pearl, or roseate hue Of sunny gold-pink,
that finds not similitude in ceiling,
but in the grandest frescoed dome that
ever made immortal Raphael or Cor
reggie.
The flowers of May that emblazon,
hmm ich nd oh ho fri0 y
like wreath around each lawn, grassy
parquet, square or park, are of many
kinds. Printed pages enough to fill a
quarto volume would be required to tell
the names of all, or q part even, of our
May blossoms. They densely carpet the
earth. A bit of ground LETT to nature
will soon be transformed to blooming
mass of wild and cultivated spontaneous
daisies, mint, blue bells, dandelions,
peoples, lilies irises, butter cups, clover
and pinks, plebian and patrician to-
gether, some in rags, ''some in tags and
some in velvet gowns
This is not short-lived pageant; fol
ten months of the year, when one set of
flowers blooms out its day, another,
equally as bright and sweet, advances
to fill the vacancy. Though no flowers
have the individuality and personality
of the May-fowers, yet, here we know
how the passing away of the flora of one
month but heralds that of another, as
brilliant and varied. In a less congenial
climate, what would be farewell for
another year to the tleeting flowers, here
is but the occasion of renewed welcome
to the mute panorama that continues to
unfold, in ever charming, changing,
forms Of beauty.
Flowers, however, have their noblesse
oblige families and individuals.
Roses and jasmines are these promi-
merit flowers. They are seen in every
towering frieze around green grassy
lawns, in every favored place flower
may show to best advantage, and in the
magnolia-shaded cemeteries where loved
ones sleep beneath the flowers. Even
on the front and sides of cottage homes,
where cabbage and spinach are grown
in the plots that surround them, these
flowers are as beautiful ais elsewhere.

where the roses are not even in sight.
Closely with competing Marechal Mel
comes Refine Marie Henriette in beauti-
full cherry red. It's distinctive charms
lie in the large, full, symmetrical buds
that are of the much admired, peculiar
| ly elongated niphetos form, the cerise
shade of color and the intoxicating
whey or vinous odor. This latter pc
culiarity has given Henrietta the name
of "whisky rose," the florists tell me.
1t is the finest of all for filing the odo1-
Gus rose jars. The gold and cherry red
| blooms Of these two superb roses form
picture of perfect grace and beauty,
blooming together, richly and album
dainty, as they do, from February till
| December. They are near enough akin
to the tea roses to share the deserved
popularity Of that class for fragrance
ever-blooming qualities and clear, por.
celain tints. Both Marechal Mel and
| Rene Marie Henriette belong to the
Noisettes, which are hybrids of re-
montant and climbing varieties. This
now famous strain Of roses originated in
Charleston, S. c., in 1915. Philip
Stanislaus Noisette, native of Paris,
hybrldized the white Musk Cluster with
the common China Rose and produced
variety he named Noisette or Rosa
Muschata.
There are now hundreds of Noisette
roses, the two favorites of New Orleans,
Marechal Mel and RENE Marie Henri
cite perhaps the finest, but all partake
of the same sweet characteristics of
climbing Teas. La France, the finest
(and the first) Hybrid Tea and Duchess
de Brabant, the beautiful pink Tea,
seem to be the most popular, after
Louis Philippe, Queens Scarlet and
Agrippina.
The Jasmlnoide Or Rhyncospermum
is the jasmine so popular in this city of
flowers. The foliage is thick, leathery,
glossy, smooth, dark, rich green, on kid
like, clean, long twining branches, and
the blossoms are snowy white stars.
They cover the vines in April and May
in sheets of bloom and the fragrance is
veritable benedictlon to the senses.
In growth the Jasmlnoide is as free and
vigorous as the honeysuckle, and when
the season of f1orescence, confined to
the spring, is over, the evergreen nature
of Ethe vine renders it highly orna-
mental. 1t would simply be deemed ex-
aggeration to describe the effect of this
vine, as it is here, in May. Newly
fallen snow, pure, white, unsullied, as
the fakes have softly clustered over the
green leaves they have not buried from
view, is the only similitude nature af- |
fords for the consecrated loneliness of
the Jasminoide, or as it is here called,
"Contederate Jasmine" as it spreads in
fragrant blooms over the carefully tended
green sod of the cemeteries of New Or
leans. Like the milky way across the |
heavens it's course is marked by soft, |
sweet, star-like blooms that blend with |
the golden light in sheens of pearly |

any native-born American who attend
ed il and is hereafter ashamed to admit
that he was born in this country, de-
serves to be ridden out of town on
rail. The crowd of merry-makers was
the largest and most select that has
been seen in Butte in a long time, and
IL was distinctively American. The
crowd numbered very close to a thous-
and people, and II 1t had not been such
good-natured one, the hall would
have been too crowded for comfort.
The hall was profusely decorated with
the national colors and pictures or
Washington, with the stars and stripes
draped around them. Morse's orches-
ira, composed entirely of native-born
Americans, furnished the music. AS IL
was Saturday night, the dancing
stopped promptly at IL o'clock. The
ball was the grandest kind of success
and all of the Mechanics have reason
to be proud of their first venture and
of the crowd that was present.
