boy, of Brasher's drug store, was con-
siderably bruised and cut about the

ABOUT THE PERENNIALs


The perennial is essentially the busy
woman's favorite class of plants.
These hardy plants are propagated by
cutting and division which may be
done now.
When dividing such plants as peren-
NAL phlox. golden glow, feverfew,
daisy, peony, see that a crown; shoot
or bud is allowed each new plant
Plant in rich soil that has been deep
~ spaded.
If you have choice perennial phlox
of which you wish to increase your
stock take a shoot, pinch out the ter
minal bud, cut eff the first pair of
leaves, and the second pair wholly,
and stick the cutting in wet sand.
Place in the window with the house
plants.
For the sunless window provide a
few plants such as ferns, palms. ivies,
tradacanties, araucarias. dragon trees
and the like.
By all means make a compost heap.
Gather into a sheltered corner or

kitchen and garden, wood ashes, bones.
rough manure, rotting chips, sawdust
and the like.
If it has to be made outside throw
boards over it to avoid teaching. Stir
frequently and pour soapsuds over it.
Do not neglect to pot clump or
two of sweet alyssum. Cut the tops
back within two or three inches of
the roots; give sun and water, and
you will soon be rewarded with lot
of honey-scented blooms
Do not be impatient with your ge-
raniums if they seem lazy. AS soon
as they become pot bound they will
flower; then they should have week

Sweet peas may be planted in the
fall in well-drained spot. Plant a
little deeper than in spring, and
