Plants Which Do Well on the
North Side of the House.
Editor Floral Department:

A number of my friends near by.
have been asking what plants will
make good showing on the north side
OF the house, and / thought the answer
might interest my far-away friends as
well; SO will describe two beds design
ed. First make the soil very rich
and mellow. Then plant Hydrangea
Otaksa four feet apart Midway be-
tween the Hydrangeas. plant white
Balsam and fill in with native ferns
This made beautiful bed that
fOuriShed and formed a line of beauty
until the winter frosts cut them down.
Bed number two was white and pale
pink Balsams, edged with a low grow
ing native fern-an evergreen-and
very pretty.
Number three was of Hydrangea
Otaksa and Hydrangea Thomas Hogg.
Number four was Pans1es, planted
in ribbon lines from dark to light.
Number five was a bank of white
Day Lilies (Funkia). All were beauti-
full and gave great satisfaction l am

Master the Clouds.

Be master of the clouds.
Let them not master thee;
Compel the sunshine to thy soul,
However rough the sea.
BE not as those who own
No hope nor glow of faith
Beyond the clouds the light remains
And true life cOnquers death.
BE thou of good cheer yet,
Though dark and drear the way;
The longest night wears on to dawn,
And dawn to perfect day.
Possess thy soul i'm calm.
Let patience rule thy heart,
And in gray shades of clouded times
Bear thou the herO's part.
There shalt thou know the flush
OF happy, radiant days;
For he who trusts God in the dark
Is taught new songs of praise.

A New Dendromecon,

We find an account of new native
shrub, in the Florists Exchange. writ
ten by some one from California. We
hope that it will soon be introduced in
to this state.
This hardy shrub we discovered in
the summer of 1903, in Hope Valley,
Alpine county, Cal, growing at an alti-
tude of 10000 feet, above sea level.
We found it in localities where the
thermometer registered at times 20 de-
grees below zero, so it is undoubtedly
very hardy, and will stand most eli
mates without protection. In its native
nome, which is at or near the snow
llne and where deep SHOWS fall in
winter, it is found growing upon rocky
slopes. In its wild state
lt forms dense rounding bushes, with
stout, rigid branches, and will attain
a height of 10 or 20 feet 1t has will

an enchanter's spell, and the ground

beauty of it all, and was glad.
