WINDOW BOXES
AND THEIR USES

Everybody can afford a flower gar
den. even If it is only window box
that is placed on the outside Of the
house.
These can be made at home; and
while plain grocery boxes can serve
the purpose. IL il better to use cypress
wood. The reason for this Is. cypress
is easily handled, has lasting qualities.
and can be stained any color desired.
The boxes are generally from one to
two feet deep. and vary from foot
to two feet in width The length Is
determined by the width of the win
dow To keep the box from rottinS.
ii is we'll TO bore holes in the bottom
and TO fit into II an inner box of
zinc.
Place bits Of broken flowerpot or
charcoal on the bottom of the pan
to insure proper drainage. Add a
three-inch layer of rough soil. then
This should be carefully pressed
der to prevent shrinkage.
The best filling that can be used is
good, rich. loan, such as is found
under the roots of grass in any good
pasture. This should be mixed with
rotted manure and sand. one-third
loan, one-third manure, and one
third sand is a good combination. The
best results are obtained by letting
this stand few days before planting
The selection of the plants is a
matter that requires careful consid-

kind of plants will thrive beet In It.

asparagus plumosus, sprengeri, Japa-
nese morning giories and begonias are
also suitable: also numerous species of
