Clematis Flammula.

The above named clematis is one of
a class of vines which are somewhat
disappointing for year or two after
planting, because they die back part
ly or wholly to the ground for several
seasons. AS this is not always looked
for, many are disappointed, suppos-
ing the vines dead, and many plant
has been dug up and thrown away
as being lifeless that would have
come along all when spring returned.
Clematises, especially the fammula,
lose their youngest growth in winter.
The fammula disappears entirely to
the ground the first season; with the
return of spring it starts anew, and if
it makes four or five feet Of growth it
will again die back in winter, but not,
perhaps, to quite the extent it did
before. Perhaps a foot of wood will
be left above ground. At the seasons
go by and the vine gets stronger the
dying back gets less, and the trellis,
or whatever the vine is on, is covered
with live wood. Clematises are now
great favorites, and are to be found
in all collections, but require to be
tended patiently at first. The wood
of many of them is SO very slender
that it is liable to more accidents
than vines with StOuter wood which is
more easily seen. The Jackmanni
the one with large purplish blue
flowers, very often gets overlooked
and broken off, hoed off or lost
through some such misfortune the
first year or two after planting

Lawn Shrubs for Ornament.

Beware of the Japanese lantern
plant. Last years experience leads
me to believe it will prove a trouble
some weed, hard to destroy, and not
so very ornamental either. The Grim
son spirea is very desirable plant of
very small size, but beautiful COM
pact habit, with clusters of light
crimson flowers produced all summer,
especially if old flower heads are
clipped off. [ think for a border it
could easily be kept cut back to six
or eight inches in height, with as
great breadth, and be continuously
in bloom. The small leaves are also
handsomely variegated more or less,
with white. Spirea bumalda is eX-
actly of the same habit as the Grim
son, except that the flowers are a
shade lighter. In leaf and habit the
plants seem exactly alike. Bumalda
is older, and cheaper, but each is very
meritorious.-E. Y. Teas in American

The Iris Family.

Irises, or flags, to call them by their
common name, have always been ia
vorite garden plants. They are
known in a great many countries,
as Representatives grow wild in
nearly all of them. In our own coun-
try there are several species, but
there is but one in Pennsylvania, the
common flag of our swamps, Iris ver-
sicolor, blue lilac colored. Every year
seems to add new ones to the list Of
cultivated kinds. The best of recent
additions are the japanese sorts.
These are valuable both for the great
variety of color and their lateness Of
blooming Since their introduction it
is possible to have iris flowers from
early April until near the close Of
July, or full three months in the
year, by planting early, medium and
late blooming sorts Iris verna and
cristata are early; then the many
German sorts follow. Later comes
the yellow blooming one from Eu
rope, followed with our native late
blooming ones, and lastly the Japa
nese iris referred to above, which is
known as Kampferi. The species
forentina is nearly white, and, being
of large size, is CONSPICUOUS and beau
tiful. The common yellow one is
also large and snowy. In the Japa-
nese there are many colors-perhaps
as many as a dozen distinct kinds.
Some are of the deepest purple, and
there are all shades between this and
white. Irises like deep, fine, good
soil. Deepness gives moisture, Of
which they are very fond. The foil
age is stronger and the flowers larger
when the ground is in the condition
they like. Where there is room for
irises to spread so that no disturb
ance of the root occurs they flourish

The Children's Garden.

When you set aside plants and
seeds for the wee folks garden, don't
give them only those you would not
like to see in your own. If you have
anything choice and pretty let them
have the care of it during the sum-
mer. Lend the plants to them, if you
like, on the condition that they give
them good care.
Don't think anything is good
enough for the children; anything is
not good enough-they should have
the best. You may have patience to
nurse a sickly plant back to health,
but they will fail to see where the
fun comes in. Don't give them some
worthless stick of geranium
with only two leaves, and fatter
yourself that they will not know the
difference.
If you would have them enjoy the
flowers, and take pride in their gar
den, give them something of which
they may be proud. Give them some
thing bright and pretty, that will be
in bloom for a long time.
Pansies are dearly loved by the
children, and if mixed seed or plants
be given them they will greatly en-
joy watching each bud unfold, and
there will be many surprises in store
for them as the various colors are dis
covered.
Fragrant sweet peas are nice for
their garden, as are the many colored
peoples Star phloN is a source Of
endless delight, and they will spend
hours during the summer in vain en-
deavor trying to find two punches eX-
actly alike. Petunias furnish flowers
for them to pick the entire summer,
and snapdragons are a curiosity of
which they may never tire.
The feeling of ownership is strong
in child, anything that is their very
own is of double value. II they can
have bit of ground where they can
plant and tend their treasures, where
they can invite their playmates and
from which they may pick few
flowers when they choose, they are

Tomorrow is positively the last day
for the people OF Guthrie to say
whether or not the Frisco railroad

te built. The proposition OF Major
Brown, providing for the building Of
this extension, was accepted three
weeks ago by the citizens OF the CAPT
tai city and since that time the sum OF
si4, 600 has been subscribed and notes
given for s42.7i4. Six thousand dol
lars are yet due. Messrs. Brown,
Nelson and Parker are in the city snx-
ions TO close the deal and they have
given the railroad CON mittee OF the
Guthrie club until Monday evening to
raise the balance OF the money. So
far the railroad projectors have car
ried out their agreement TO the letter
and IL Is now their desire that Guthrie
come TO the front, rhe Leader has
already given full details Of the pro-
posed road and the benefits to be de-
rived by the city have been touched on
at length. Not cent is asked OF the
city until the road is built and in oper-
alton. All those subscribing are sim
ply asked to give their notes, which
are payable thirty days after the road
Is in operation to Guthrie. This Is not
wildcat scheme aud nobody will suf-
fer. Ii is simply golden opportunity
for the city to broaden its commercial
scope and otherwise advance its own
welfare. The building OF the road
means a direct trunk line to st. Louis,
cheaper fuel, more manufactures and
larger population. In fact, it's i'm
