Flowers For Gardens.
1t Is Easy to Grow Flowers In the
Brownsville Country and Every
Home Should Have Them.

Home should mean more than
shelter. There are other needs than
those of the body. To stiie the love
Of beauty is to cut off part of life;
to crafty it is to fulfill a legitimate
demand of mans nature. Where
better seek to develop beauty than
at home? Flowers add much to the
brightness OF the picture. Every
home should have them. The farm
er should not consider it beneath
his dignity to aid IN their care. The
successful farmer does not hesitate
70 give time and expense to the bet
terment Of his cattle and his hens.
He should not hesitate to give time
20 The Development Of his children.
Children need flowers. The early
home surroundings mean much.
No later experience can efface their
influence from the after-life. They
cannot be made too good.
It's easy to grow flowers. If we
think otherwise, it is because we
have never tried or have tried TO
grow them in the wrong way. To
hoe Up little patch in the sod and
I'll it.in with "chip-dirt" or leaf
mold is not the wly. Grass roots
appreciate gooJ living as well as
flower roots, and are far more as
sertiye. Grown in this way results
seldom repay the effort.
Flowers may be grown for two
purposes, and the objects should
govern the method. They may be
grown to cnt, or they may be grown
for their outdoor effect. These two
purposes need not be wholly dis
tinct, bpt are essentially different.
If cut flowers are the principal OBJ
jet, grow them in the garden; they
will thrive much better there. Then |
do not set of a single garden corner
and make fancy raised bed in
which to con6ne them Give them
good, broad rows, running from end |
10 end, where the wheel hoe can do |
the work Of tillage. The rows should |
be at least three feet apart, unless
It be for some very small plant, like
sandytuft and pansies. 1t is great
mistake to crowd them into close
VOWS, where they have no chance to
develop their individuality.
If the soil IS in condition to grow
good onions or cabbage, no further
trouble need be taken on the score
Of fertility. Only a very shallow
mark Is needed, in sowing the seed
q most kinds. Seed plentifulIy,
cover lightly, then pack the soil
vigorously with the hand or the
hoe Freshly turned soil is best. for
then the seeds begin to take up
moisture at once. The seeds being
'own, the care which should be Civ

preserve the loose surface mulch
and guard against loss of moisture.
Care should be taken that grass and
weeds do not encroach upon the
outside row. 1t will take more land
to grow the flowers in this way, but
what of it? There is land enough
on the farm. Let the flowers take
half the garden if they will.
Critical tastes may object to flow
ers in the vegetable garden. If you
can spare a whole garden to them
. alone, so much the better, but if
not, do not let the fear of lack of
harmony between flowers and vege-
tables keep you from putting them
there. .Nasturtiums will harmonic
well with background OF carrots,
and calliopsis will find no fault
with the company of parsnips. If
the vegetable garden begins with
low-growing and ornamental vege-
tables of this sort, there need be no
jar to the esthetic sense in the COM
bination. Remember that we are
now considering the growing of cut
flowers. We are not so much con-
cerned with their appearance as
wherethey grow.
In the growing of flowers for their
landscape effect, to produce a home
picture, another course should be
followed. For this purpose they will
give the best effect if found in
groups about the border of the
grounds or massed against the
foundations of buildings. They may
well serve as a foreground for
groups of shrubbery, or i'll young
plantations may supplement the
effect of scanty foliage where shrubs
are being established. For this use
they should occupy beds, but, so
far as possible, be left to their own !
careless grace. The objection to this
methods of growing is that soil con-
ditions are likely to be less favor
able. The grass encroaches upon
their territory, and other roots may
usurp the food and moisture which
belong to them. Commonly, there
fore, the individual plant will not
thrive so well, and this method will
be less satisfactory for cut flowers
han the one previously described.
For such use perennial plants are
often preferable Peonie>, yrium-
Dimes and similar plants thrive with
less care and endure neglect be..cgt

| When w. B. Carter, 26 years

the time when it would be neees-

Oh of time when they should grow
to such a size as to such a size as to

For some years various owners of
the property 4ave been removing
the trees one by one as their pur-
pose prompted, and on Wednesday
last another monument to Mr.. Car

redwood which was greatly admir-

passed it, and the necessity of its
removal is generally regretted

however much hallowed, is over
