Economical Independence.
To make the force OF men engaged
in the maintenance, operation and de-

has become the fixed policy here, and

Of thousands a idle acres near the
canal and hundreds OF thousands OF
idle or comparatively idle men In nd

PERGOLA NOW WIDELY USED
Adds to Beauty Of Garden 1t 1t Is
Properly Constructed and Effee-
lively Placed.

Comparatively few gardens are now
complete without pergola of some
kind though twenty years ago they
were almost unknown in America.
They are, however, so useful In giving
variety to the garden, and have so
much decorative value, that they are
widely used.
Pergolas need careful construction.
and an effort should be made. before
building one, to choose suitable po-
sition for it, since, if pergola is set
down with no apparent raison d'etre.
it becomes burden rather than help
in the garden scheme. 1t should lead
to some defined object-to summer
house, or gate, or perhaps to terrace
steps; if it begins and ends for no ap-
parent reason, it is certainly misplaced.
In the gardens of La Mortola near
Bordighera, the pergola leads out to
a wide terrace with stone balustrade,
while beyond lies the wonderful blue of
the Mediterranean and the gray rocks
Of the italian coast; and this view
gains double value from being framed
as it were, in tunnel of greenery.
