as Tecoma radicans), is a native Of
many Cypress swamps and deserves
to be more commonly set out as an or
namental vine than it is at the pres
ent time. The other species mention
ed by Mr. Meehan, are no doubt de-
sirable for giving variety to the plant
ing. While we are on the subject of
vines, we will add that our native, Big
nonia capreolata, should have place
in every flower garden and door yard.
The Florists Exchange article is as
follows:
At this season Of the year, early
August, there is always a temptation
to praise the trumpet vine as the sever
al kinds flower then, and they are cer-
tainly beautiful The best known is
Bignonia radicans, which is found wild
in many States, and is cultivated in
almost every garden as well. Wheth
er as vine to a wall, clothing a pole
or tree, or grown as a shrub, it is al
ways valued, it's large, trumpet-shaped
scarlet flowers making such a bril-
liant display and at time, too, when
vines, shrubs and trees are making but
little showing. For many years there
was in nursery collections a trumpet
vine called Bignonia Thunbergi, but
it was nothing but variety of B.
radicans, having flowers Of a darker
scarlet than the type, and it's name,
Thunbergi, has been dropped There
is, however, a decidedly distinct sort
now in cultivation, yellow lowered
variety, known as B. radicans aurea
"A distinct and valuable kind is B.
grandihora, a Chinese species which
bears very large flowers, the color of
which is often described as golden
yellow, but another description though
apparently contradictory salmon pink
seems to fit it better. At any rate
it is most beautiful kind and being
a less rampant grower it blooms at a
younger stage than does B. radicans
Grown as bush or tied to a stake, to
form standard, it soon flowers, as
all vines do SO treated, and then it is
one of the sights Of the season. AS
trumpet vines flower in clusters at the
end Of their long shoots and the bios
SONS do not all open at once, there is
a succession Of flowers for some time.

in the district of Nome, between the

along the coast Of Bering Sea. have
spent hours and days among the hills
and 1ow1ands gathering the little waxen
petal hower-of every tint and color
so beautiful and dainty in texture and
color that the sweet breath OF heaven
had but merely touched them and left
the bushes of love messages upon their
petals.
I found myself acquiring somewhat
of a persistent fad, in searching for
these feaher-tinted flowers, that I
might find one to outr1val the other

the deep yellow hue, with the rubbery
stems, also a small, white lily, with
she11-1ike tinted center, with these same
long shrubbery stems, which grew
along the waters edge. They seemed

The foothills and lowlands that slope
down to the sea, through the months
Of June, July and August, are veritab1e
gardens of wild flowers, MOSES, ferns,
etc. The reindeer moss is the moss
upon which the reindeer subsists; it
takes the place of grass and grows
everywhere in abundance. It is Of a
silvery gray and various shades Of
green; turns gray after frost, but re-
mains nutritious. This moss forms
beds everywhere for the wild flowers
and ferns. AS you wander through the
lOwlands following the small streams
toward the majestic Sawtooth range
with its snow-white caps-forming a
background to the soft old green of
the foothills, you see picture of
grandeur and beauty.
Among these foothills flowers are
to be found in extraordinary growth
and strength; the white and blue, vio-
let, sweet Williams, bluebells, lilies,
buttercups, Marguerites as large and
beautiful as the cultivated ones. The
tall forget-me-nots in the rich, deli
cate blue, and the white, can be found
by the acres, spreading their frag-
rance. These, to my mind, are the
most bewilderingly beautiful of ALL

Pot Grown Mangoes.

Editor Florida Agr1Cultur1St:-
In your issue of September II, Prof.
Gale speaks very slightingly of pot
grown mango trees. Now Our plan
Of propagation of mangoes is by in
arching only, and on pot-grown stock.
My experience dates from the sum-
mer of 1888 when [ marched mangoes
of our first importation from India;
this first work of marching was done
after the Indian fashion, making rath-
er short junction of stock and scion,
and too high up on large stock, hence
were unprotected from cold and were
later lost by frosts. Later [ marched
great many trees, and now we reg
ularly work them low on small stocks
and use rather long functions. Such
trees, if set out properly, i. e. with
the base Of junction under the level
of the ground, or ball of roots and
soil from to 8 inches deeper than
when in the pot, will grow off per-
fectly and make healthy trees with
scarcely an exception. We have al
most 100 mango trees set from pots,
age from two to seven years, and
every one, without exception, perfect
ly healthy and normal in every re-
spect. The older ones are great trees
that have borne freely for several
years.
Prof. Gale must have had a limited
experience with pot-p1ants; may have
set them on level with the ground
where in dry land the wind would
lower the original surface about the
plants, thus giving them no hold on
the soil. I have advocated setting
pot-plants from two to eight inches
deep for years and years, and know
of thousands so set all doing well :
a good many of them mangOes. The
idea that "roots curled in a pot are
damage to the future tree is an
utter mistake founded on guesswork.
Investigation will show that after a
pot-plant is set out it makes a new
system of roots which gradually ST.
persede the old ones originally in the
pot.
We have grown millions of pot
plants and have received written &C
acknowledgements from hundreds of
customers that their plants and trees
have done exceedingly well; and not
only that, but one has only to look
about him III very town in Florida
to see results o. our pot-grown stock
changing the face of nature.
Pot grown stock is the best; march
ed mangoes are all right, if Set out
right

Roses.

Editor Floral Department.:
September is the month In Florida
to get the roses ready for winter
blooming
Cut out all the dead wood, and cut
back the weak shoots.
A good dressing Of we'll rotted COW
manure is as good as you can give
them, or chicken manure will do very
we'll. If you use commercial fertilizer
blood, bone and potash is perhaps the
best, and with commercial fertilizer,
little and often is the best rule If a
rose that should be double to the
center shows an eye instead, little
potash will often make it double again
There is still time to bud roses, a
rose called [ think sempervirens is
one of the best, it is often found grow
ing in cracker gardens, where it makes
very large bush. Its flowers are
pink and semi double and it only
blooms once a year, but it never suck
ers as do SO many other roses, used
for stock.
A very narrow strip of waxed cloth
will be found much better than twine
for budding.
Fourteen days is about the time tc
leave it on, if you take it off too soor
the bud may not have taken, for roses
are rather slower to take than or
anges, but if you leave it on too long
the stock will sometimes turn black
where the cloth is, and die, but four
teen days will, I think, be found the
happy medium.
November is the best month tc
strike rose cuttings. The sun then is
not SO hot, and we often get gooG
showers
If you have plenty Of time, put if
the cuttings just where you want your
rose to stand, shade with single OF
two, and water once in while If
however, time is not SO plenty, tie
your cuttings into bundles, and bury
in the sand a foot or so down, in a
couple Of weeks you can dig the cut
tings UP again, and you will find they
are we'll calloused, and but few should
fail It is best, however, to put sever
al cuttings in together, say three, and
then you can be almost sure Of q
stand
Madame Planter, and Manetti also
make good stocks. The only trouble
of Manetti is it suckers a good deal
and is, I think, best grafted as it does
not sucker so much then. Seven Sis
ters, Baltimore Belle and any other
strong growing rose can also be used
for stock I have used both Cherokee

don't take very easily on them, and
they are best for grating stock
Marecha1 Mel grated on them will dc
very we'll.
Of varieties of roses it is now
world without end, but still there are
some that no garden should be with
out
For yellow, we will put down Mare
chal Mel, for pink, Caroline Testout
and the ever beautiful Duchess de
Brabant; for cream, Marie Van
Houtte; for white, Kaiserin Augusta
Victoria, though it is a creamy white
for red, Refine Marie Henriette, and
for crimson, James Sprunt. This will
give you good start, and you can add
new varieties at any time, but it is
we'll to remember that. it is more
satisfactory to have several plants OF
the same variety than to have every
plant different

FINANCIAL SURGERY

In banking as in other operations
the time comes occasionally when
nothing but critical surgery will avail
t. tstore normal health; and when
such occasions arise sthe surgery is
beneficial even if it IS extremely
painful for the patient.
New York has just witnessed such
an occasion, and in this instance, F.
Aug. Heinze. c. w Morse and their
associates furnished the subjects for
as neat a wholesale clinic as could
have been devised. Just what con

lished the policy of discouraging alb

price of copper may go still lower
for a short time it has got down now
to a point where comparatively few
mines can operate at a profit, and
where consumers can afford to buy

SURPRISING RESULT OF
PRIMARIES At PORTLAND

Portland, Or, May 6-The victory
of Mayor Harry K. Lane in Saturdays
primary election was one of the great
est surprises Of the day, and old poll
ticians believe it is record breaker.
Mayor Lane was not a candidate, ex-
pecting, if he entered the race at all
to be an Independent candidate. AL
though his name had to be written on
the ballots he received twice as many
votes as his opponent. The result is
crushing blow to the anti-Lane forces
that we're responsible for forcing him
to reject the nomination from his par
ty. Mayor Lane himself did not take
any part in the campaign. He left
his fate entirely in the hands of his
friends with the result that in spite of
having to write his name on the bal
lots, he defeated the man who had in
an open letter declared him not to be
available as candidate for the Demo-
cratic nomination for mayor.

COMBS MADE OF MILK
SUPERIOR TO CELLULOlD

Pullman, May 9.-Prof. Elton Full
mer, head of the department of chem
istry at the state college, has just re-
ceived from France an unusual assert
ment of trinkets-combs, pen handles,
fancy hairpins and samples of imita-
ton marble and onyx, etc., made from
the casein of milk. The composition
slightly resembles celluloid, except
that the gloss is much richer. The
imitation Of marble and onyx are of
unusual beauty. Commoner sub
stances, such as slate and aluminium
are closely initiated. The compost
ton is made quite chesply, Prof. Full
mer states, from the casein content of
milk, which heretofore has been
thrown away in the manufacturing
processes of making delicately consti-
tuted foods. It will not burn, and in
this respect, as we'll as being more
beautiful, is superior to celluloid.
