PERENNlALS AND HERBACEOUS
PLANTS
BY E. VAN eeNTHuvsEN.

There Is no class of Towering plants
more desirable than the hardy peren
malls and herbaceous plants like the
hydrangeas, the peonies, the holly
hooks, golden glow. spireas and iris.
These plants require but little at
tention, and for those who have not
much time to devote to the garden
there is no class more desirable.
Most of them will do well in ordi
nary soils and flourish under condi.
tions unfavorable to the satisfactory
development of ANIMALS.
The ANIMALS should be left to those
who are here this season and away
next. For the permanent residents
it is well to consider the merits of
this class of plants.
The cultivation OF a collection of
hardy plant is urged in preference to
ANNALS because the latter class will
not prove satisfactory unless a good
deal of time and labor are expended
on them.
One of the prime arguments in fav-
or of the perennials is-that once es-
tablished your plants are good for an
indefinite period. Your garden does
not have to be made every season.
About all this class of plants will
ask OF you is that in the spring the
plants will need to be worked about
and freed. from the grass which will
encroach upon their territory, If al
lowed to do so, the soil will require
fertilizing. and once in three or four
years the old plants will be bettered
by division of their roots.
great many of these can be at
tended to in a day, and the work is
much easier than that of making beds
and pulling weeds.
One of the best perennials is the
hydrangea. The coloring is beautiful
and it lends itself to massing and is
lovely in all its stages from the first
tender green. through the pink and
rose stage on to its russet coloring in
the fall.
The hollyhock is another favorite.
1t comes in wide range of colors-
white, rose, crimson. maroon, and soft
yellow-it is a profuse bloomer and
does well in almost any kind of soil.
Double hollyhocks are mostly in
favor these days. but the single ones
are well worth the cultivation. Cut
off the old fiOwer-stalks, as soon as
the buds on them have developed,
and quite frequently new stalks will
be sent up late in the season.
In this way one may have holly

HOME GROUNDS BEAUTIFUL

While in the North, East and middle
West it is impossible to achieve the
beautiful effects possible in the South,
there is much that can be done to
improve the appearance of the
grounds around our homes.
The huge palms that grow so won
derfully in southern California and
lend beauty and charm to the southern
home are not for us in their exotic
prodigality of growth. But. lesson
can be learned from the planting of
these huge palms. The accompany
ing photograph OF the grounds around
a home in Los Angeles gives one a
fine idea of the beauty of planting. be
1t trees or palms. Plenty of space
and a chance for the tree to shine in

trees too closely together. Some of
our yards took as II they were planted

beauty given by proper arrangement.
Ornamental shrubbery can be effec
lively used and the successful cultiva-
ton of this shrubbery depends upon
the simple principles of ordinary gar
dening: First, proper preparation OF
the ground-which is merely digging
or plowing a foot or two deep and
seeing that there is a supply of fer
tile soil, properly drained.
A good dressing of well-rotted stable
manure spread over the surface of the
bed and dug in will achieve wonders.
The second point of importance to
consider in planting is whether you
want to have done with the work once
and for all II whether you will care.
fully tend the plantation for the next
few years. The ideal way is to plant
little thickly-that is, to plant few
more than can later on be comfortably
accommodated upon the space, and to
thin out in succeeding years as the
various plants attain greater ssze.

FOR THE WINDOW GARDEN
BY PRISCILLA PAkE.

All the hardy towering shrubs may
be started by roofing cuttings, and this
should be done early so the plants will
be well established before the cold
weather. Such plants started from
cuttings will bloom much more quick
IL than those from seeds.
For roofing oleander cuttings, split
the stem a little way and push bit OF
cotton between the parts, then place
in a bottle of water, hang in a warm
shady place, sheltered from the wind
Wrap black paper or cloth about the
bottle to exclude the light, and bide
your time. Replenish the water, if
necessary.
Acacia lopantha is one of the most
beautiful, fernlike plants, is easily
started from seeds. and will Show up
beautifully when only few months
old. The flowers will appear the sec.
ond or third year, under good treat.
ment. The plant requires plenty OF
root room, will grow to be quite a
tree and is long lived.
The Colorado statesman., 1915-11-13

hooks until late in the season.
Seeds planted in May, June or July
will give one dozen of plants from
which flowers may be expected the
following season.
Great clumps OF golden glow or
rudbeckia make an exceedingly rich
show of color. For weeks it is a solid
mass of golden blooms, and for cut
ting we have few better flowers.
The spireas should be more exten-
sively grown. 1t would be difficult to
find a more exquisitely lovely flower,
with its great plumelike panicles of
airy, pink bloom.
The iris should always be given a
place in the amateur gardeners col
lection. 1t must have a somewhat
moist location. The Japanese and
German varieties have remarkable
colorings.
Perennial phlox should he in the
collection and ought to include a doz-
en- of the most distinct varieties This
is the geranium of the outdoor gar
den. 1t grows easily and is a profuse
bloomer.
Hardy pinks are good, readily OBJ,
tainable and easily grown. Unless you
desire immediate effects all the kinds
here mentioned will bloom the second
season from seeding plants.
Now is the time to think of your
garden for next year and if you have
been restoring to annual planting try
making permanent beauty spots.

those who have known and respected
him for his honesty and integrity for

considerable length of time.

icines in the past without obtaining
the right results. However, the pub

him that test of the preparation
was worth the attempt.
Mr.. Rohrman had suffered much an
noyance from indigestion, especially.
He got Tanlac and began using it. A
few afternoons ago he was prepared
to make this statement in the pres
ence of witnesses:

My appetite is improved, as well as

of Tanlac is real pleasure.
Tanlac, the remarkable medicine
referred to by Mr.. Rohrman, is now
distributed in Louisville by the per
sonal direction of L. T. Cooper and in

famous medicine can now be bought.
