A convenient way used by another

drops over them and both hides and pro-
tects them. OF course, all the long-han

If tools are kept in the cellar or an
clubhouse do not fail to have pegs on
which every one can be hung. The

of the vegetable patch is not much. but
in that time you can loosen the earth

Laying Out the Lilac.

NE OF the first shrubs to blossom
this spring will be the lilac. which
~ is deservedly among the most pop
ular Of plants. 1t may we'll be called
queen of shrubs and is a favorite be-
cause OF its remarkable hardwood. the
snowy clusters of its abundant and fra
grant blossoms and its patience under
cultural abuse.
The common lilac (syringa vulgans) is
the most common In the gardens. and
from 1t have sprung a large number of
snowy forms which are grown In parks
by more expert gardeners. While the lilac
grows in almost any soil. to obtain the
best results 1t should be planted In rich.
well-drained soil, somew what heavy with
a little clay in 1t il possible.
The Amoor lilac Is one Of the more
snowy varieties which should have moro
general favor 1t is a tall. slender shrub.
ten to twelve feet In height. which unfolds
it's leaves very early in the spring and
produces large clusters Of yellowish white
flowers very early in June. 1t retains its
deep green foliage we'll through the
season.
The Persian lilac is the lowest-growing
variety, which is we'll known in this coun-
try. 1t grows from four to seven feet In
height, and has very slender branches.
which form q graceful outline. The flow
ers are pale purple. and there Is also a
white Towering form.
