mayorship of NJ. Hogan, system of
public sewerage was inaugurated.
This at first was limited principally
to the business portion of the COM
munity, but in 1908, during the term
of office of ]. A. Dubois, it was ex-
tended to all part of the city.
The women of Sank Centre have
not awaited the privilege of the fran
chise to take hand in the city's af-
fairs. Through their various socie-
ties, such as the Gradatim Club, the
Art Circle, the Musical, the Sans Sou
CT, they have ever been an active
force in civic betterment. By their eff
forts, and due to their keener eye for
the beautiful, many an unsightly
corner, the catch-all for tin cans and
other rubbish, has been made attract
i've and respondent by the substitu-
ton of the graceful shrub and delicate
flower. To some of their energetic
workers is due the credit of the es-
tablishment of the rest room at Sank
Centre, complete in all its appoint
ments and supervised by matron
to whose care is committed the baby
Of the farmers wife while she is at
tending to her shopping. This seems
to have been the initiative movement,
since a noted sociologist of Chicago,
in writing lately upon the subject, di-
vided the honor equally between Sank
Centre and small city in Illinois. To
the glory of Sank Centre is the fact
that she had public library of five
thousand volumes before she had a
permanent home for the books. Hen
ry Ward Beecher once said that a
house without books is like a house
without windows, and the early set
tiers evidently believed that a public
collection of books, letting in as it
does the light of the past ages, was
not so much of a luxury as necessity
to any inspiring community. So, even
before there was a village organiza-
ton, the Palmer, Oakford, Barto, Bar
mum, Harvard and other families
formed what they named the Bryant
Library association. This was the
humble beginning of the Sank Cen
tire Public Library. The book which
stood as No. i upon their shelves was
an autograph copy of the poems of
William Cullen Bryant, in whose hon
or the library had been named. I'm
fortunately, this volume was later
stolen from its place, and thus the

ers is dependent upon the caprices of
the weather man, but in this list l
have tried to suggest things that can
be depended upon to produce blooms
during the months mentioned al
though any of them will last
through more than one month. The
time Of blooming of ANIMALS depends
largely upon the time of sowing the
seeds. Generally speaking it is well
to depend upon bulbs for early spring
and fall. Most ANIMALS are at their
best in midsummer.
Among the most easily grown an
nuals are nasturtiums, which seed
themselves so readily in this climate
as to become almost a pest, and sweet
peas. The latter grow in such per-
fection in Oregon as to rival the rose

Flower Garden
Time is Here

A Portlander who has given years
to flower growing and been an en-
thusiast in the effort to secure "civic
beauty" gives some helpful sugges-
tions in recent Sundays Oregonian.
In part he says:
ITO begin with the parking strip:
BY all means hold a consultation with
your neighbors up and down the
street before you decide what to plant
there, and then plant according to
the good American system, the will
of the majority If the majority vote
is for hedge of Caroline Testouts,
by all means plant Caroline Testouts
and make the street parking uniform,
even though your own heart yearns
for stately row of spreading chest
nuts"
Writing of a flower garden at the
rear of the residence, or beds of flow
ers placed here and there, he says:
"The following list of bulbs and
perennials has been made up with the
idea of assuring cut flowers for nine
months of the year and has no refer
ence to the grouping of plants in the
border. However, by selecting from
this list and grouping according to
individual taste, border could be
made up at small expenditure OF time
or money that would be a thing OF
beauty in itself and joy for many
moons because of the many blossoms
for cutting it would yield:
Bulbs or Tubers-March, daffo-
dis; April, Narcissus; May, German
Iris; June, Madonna Lilies; July
Japanese Iris; August, Gladiolas;
September, Japanese Lilies; October,
Dahlias; November, Dahlias.
"Perennials - March, Doronicum;
April, Wallflowers; May, Columbine;
June, Gaillardia; July, Delphinium;
August, Campanulas; September,
hardy Asters; October, Anemone Jap
onica; November, Chrysanthemums.
