THE KITCHEN PORCH

The incest porch is enclosed with
wire screen, thus shutting out flies
and mosquitoes. If the kitchen Is also
a dining room, the wide porch thus
enclosed is doubly available, giving
a cool place to eat, secure from rain
or unpleasant insect visitors. 1t is
still another great improvement over
the lawn for eating because more con-
venient to the kitchen, saving the trou-
BILE of going up and down stairs.
A rocking chair and high stool en-
able one to work at the table while
seated and are essentials to comfort.
It is much better to keep the washing
in one corner instead of Juggling it up
and down cellar every wash day. This
can be concealed from sight by a
cheaply constructed screen.
Shade will be needed during a por-
ton of the day. The Virginia creep
er, readily obtained of a florist if not
a neighbor, is the most rapid grower
and most beautiful Of our native vines.
Morning glory and wild cucumber
furnishes dainty curtain, which must
be renewed from year to year, though
the latter renews without work on our
part through self-sown seed.
The clematis in several varieties,
native and exotic are favorites.
With vines for shade the housewife
may have more enjoyable spot in
which to do the drudgery.

SOME SATISFACTORY BULBS
BY JULIE ADAMS POWELL.


In planting a perennial flower gar
den one must spare corner, or strip
of ground for the hardy bulbs which
come up from year to year with very
little care, excepting the general care
which flower lovers all give to their
gardens such as keeping the weeds
down, fertilizing the ground in the
fall, and loosening the earth in the
springtime.
Scilla Siberica is very satisfactory,
1t being one of the first bright blue
flowers to greet US, for it comes in
crocus time. Then there is the Scilla
Campanulata, or Spanish bluebell.
These bulbs, grown in masses with
snowdrops, grape and feathered n.y.
acinths, are charming in effect.
My crocuses are planted in the lawn
