are received it is better to postpone
the. planting, as the soil is liable to
become baked and the safety of the
plants may be thus endangered.
During a dry season the rose re-
quires plenty of water, and frequently
soaking the bed with liquid manure
will be beneficial. The moisture may
also be conserved by abundant cultiva-
ton. .s..
In the winter the roses should be
protected with good mulch, which is
best done by covering the roots in De-
cember with coarse litter, or leaves, to
about six inches in depth, or they may
be covered with evergreen boughs or
similar material.
But If the exposure is very great 1t
is advisable to lay the plants down and
cover them with earth, putting them to
sleep, as it were, on the bosom OF
Mother Nature.

CLEMATIS A GOOD Vine

Clematis, panniculata, is one of our
most popular vines. It seems entire
Iy free from disease and is unusually
hardy. Its foliage is attractive and
its small white blossoms which COM
pletely cover the vine make glorious
spectacle over porches and pergolas.
One Of its chief attractions is that
it does not come into bloom until
after all the other vines are faded and
yellow. It is a rapid grower.
Clematis must be planted in soil
Of good loan, well drained. Give 1t
protection Of leaves in the winter.

FALL PLANTING Of ROSES
BY PRISCILLA PAKE.

Fan planting of roses may be done
In the latter part of October or early
in November, or even as late as the
middle OF December, with: excellent re-
suits. Ft .s :T
Roses planted in the fall, however,
should be set deep and banked well
with earth just before the ground
freezes: It is also well to cover the
soil about the plants with manure,
which should not be removed until the
middle of April, or until all danger
from a severe frost is over, whereupon
this dressing may be forked under.
When the rose plants are received
from the nurseryman they should be
unpacked as soon as they come to
hand. Thereupon the tops and roots
should be well sprinkled with water.
after which they should be covered
with bagging and placed in shaded
spot until ready to plant.
II the ground is not prepared when
the plants arrive, it is advisable to put
them in a shallow trench and cover the
roots with loose soil until the ground
can be put into a proper condition.
LuS clIlCuucAl VI Tic SOlls AOWCNSAs
should not only be made at the time of
the preparation of the bed before plant
ing, but in the spring of every year,
for with such attention a bountiful
supply Of flowers may be expected
every season.
! When planting, spread the roots out
carefully and do not cross them or
crowd them. They should be placed
well below the surface Of the soil and
arranged, as far as possible, in their
natural position. sazs.
When the roots are covered the
earth should be firmly pressed down
upon them, particularly around the
stem. II manure is put in the bottom
of the hole it should not be allowed to
come in contact with the roots.
After planting, the roses should be
well cut back to few buds, freely wa
tered and protected for few days If
the sun is strong. After that they will
have become thoroughly established.
