layinu Out Flower Beds.

Why do people plant flowers in
bods? Everyone does IT, and there Is
hardly one in n hundred that knows
why they plant them in beds instead
of sinEly and scattered or some other
way. They do It because everybody
else does it.
Planting flowers Is a good deal like
growing whisl;ers in some ways Right
after the Civil war every man grow
full beard because SO many OF the
returning heroes had boards through
necessity that they made whiskcrs
fashionable.
That's why we plant flowers in beds.
Because the other fellow did, and still
does. But fortunately there are mighty
good underlying reasons for so doing,
whether We understand them or not
IL the first place. the herbaceous or
soft stemmed plants usually look bet.

large or continuous mass of color
makes strong impression upon the CD.

would be ignored \ single soldier ia
uunoticod, but the marching of a reg
imcnt thrills the very soul. SO It is
with flowers, and this cumulative Of.
feet is the biggest reason for massng
them together.
Perhaps the only other immediate al
tentative would be to scatter them
about over the lawn as they occur in
naturc-a group Of blue here. a single
pink there. etc. This is all very we'll
for the yard that is kept in wild
state, but it will never do for the fin.
ished city or suburban lot. 1t makes
n fair. smooth lawn impossible and
the combination Of natural flower ar
engagements and polished gardening &C.
cessories spoils the effect of each one
As far as possible, the beds should
be kept at the outer edges of the lawn
to avoid cutting It up and making Il
look small The oldfashioned, formal
bcds-round square, star.shaped, dia-
mond or crescent--are not in good
taste now. and the lines of the beds
should be irregular, although clearly
defined. This applies to every walk
borders, TO lesser degree. although
we personally like straight lined bed

If 1t is necessary to place small beds
out in the lawn, the round or oval bed
is probably the best in form and II
should contain low flowers, so as not

~ fortified and pulyerized, and the
edges cut clean and smooth with an
edging tool. The earth should be gen.
tly crowned from the edges to the cen.
ter, to provide drainage. DO not plant
the flowers so close to the grass as to
interfere with clipping the grass at
the edge Of the lawn about the bed.

Dwarf Tomatoes.

Tomatoes are one OF, II not the
most, popular summer vegetables.
This worldwide favorite is OF com
paratiyely recent use as an edible. II
was originally cultivated for its deco.
rative features only, the fruit being
called Love Apples" and people con
siderinE them to be poisonous. This
singular error was probably due to
the fact that tomatoes belong to the
"Nlghtshade" family, several OF whose
members are deadly poison to human
beings.
The popularity of tomatoes is due
largely to the great variety OF ways in
which they can be prepared for the
table. No other vegetable can be eat
en- raw or cooked in such variety of
forms. No other vegetable has wider
range of growth, is easier to grow,
or produces more from the land.
Tomatoes were originally divided
into the tree and bush classes, after
their manner of growth About so
years ago a French market gardener
noticed a sturdy low.growing tomato
bush in field of ordinary vines. We
say bush advisedly, because It had a
short. strong stalk and stood right up,
holding its branches and fruit of the
ground.
From his original plant sport" has
been developed a great variety of
dwarf tomatoes. This peculiar occur
renee has never re-occurred. and If
