Are you planning to plant flowers
about your home this spring. They
will give you that needed outdoor
exercise and be source Of much
pleasure to you besides attracting the
attention of the stranger who visits
our town during the summer. The
strangers, or at least not many Of
them will meet you but they will form
an opinion of you by the conditions
that surround your home. If you have
flowers they will know at least that
you love the beautiful and this places
you in the class Of culture and refine
