F'reesias were introduced from South
Africa in 1915. but only in recent
years have these graceful, delight
fully sweet scented flowers secured
anything like the popularity they de-
serve.
Freesias rank with the rose, carna-
ton and violet in the essential quail
tiles Of grace. beauty and perfume.
They are indispensable TO florists,
lending themselves to all the require
ments of commercial flowers. There
is no floral arrangement in which
freesias cannot take the leading part.
The odor is so delicate that in the
sick room it is invigorating to the
patient and not oppressive, as some
sweet scented flowers are.
Freesias are grown wherever flowers
are used. In tho Riviera great fields
are planted and the flowers are shipped
to all the cities of central Europe. In
Paris and London they are always in
demand. They are largely cultivated
nthe Channel Islands, the cut flowers
shipped throughout England. In our
own California they arc grown in
great quantities, the flowers shipped
to all the Pacific coast cities and as
far east as Kansas City.
In Bermuda the freesias have found
congenial home. and during the
Towering season the air is scented
with their fragrance, to the delight
OF the tourist.
In Japan freesias are popular and
thrive well In the Island OF Shikoku
where the soil and climate Seem par
ticularly congenial and quantities OF
the bulbs are raised. In Formosa the
bulbs have become naturalized
Originally the freesia was a small
creamy white flower, but the n.y.
bridizer has used his art to create
large. handsome flowers in a great
range OF colors-yellow, pinlls, mauve
puppies, blue, lavender, &c.-the soft
pastel shades blending tremendously

meal. Put the bulbs in an inch deep
and gently firm the soil about them.
At the start the soil should be kept
moderately moist, increasing the water
ing as growth advances. Until the
buds show, the temperature should be
about IS dergees F. at night and
about 80 degrees f. during the day.
Under this treatment good root
growth will be made. When the buds
appear, the heat may be moderately
increased TO give length to the stem
and size to the flowers, but care must
DO exercised not to overdo the matter.
F'reesias do not like too much heat.
Bulbs planted early in September
will flower early in January, and by
making successive paintings, continu-
ing until November, will bring the
lowing May.
Bulbs planted early in the season
should be shaded to keep the soil from
becoming heated. When the bulbs
start into growth they can be brought
out into the light or the shading can
be removed.
Freesias can be successfully grown
in boxes or in pots. quite like other
bulbs. Pots are best for the amateur
to use. Use six inch pot and in the
bottom use broken crooks to insure
good drainage. Use a good compost
such as suggested for bench culture,
adding a little sharp sand In the bot
tom of-the pot mix a teaspoon of hone
meal with a handful of the compost
and plant the bulbs an inch deep.
Plant from twelve to eighteen bulbs
in each pot Keep the pots outdoors,
In the shade, covered with light litter.
Keep the pots outside as long as the
weather will permit, but they must not
freeze.
When the weather becomes cold
bring the pots in the house. placing
them close to the window, as they re-
quire all the light possible. Give the
pot turn every day so there will be
equal light on all sides. Regulate the
| temperature as suggested for green
house culture and the effort will be
rewarded with lot of beautiful. fra

EXPERIENCE WITH IRIS.

Last summer lot of Japanese iris
were set out. The florist Srom whom
they were purchased was slow In
making the delivery. so the ground
was somewhat frozen when the plants
arrived.
AS 1t was desired to fill a largo bed
the plants were closely divided. MAX
ing a lot of very small roots. You
are too greedy" the florist said, such
small plants will not bloom for two
years"
The plants were received so late in
the season that they were Immediately
set out on arrival, not waiting to fer
tilize the bed, having no manure on
hand. fearing that the ground might
freeze up solid II the planting were de-
layed.
AS early as the ground could be
worked this spring, prepared sheep
manure was spread along the rows and
worked In the soil with the hoe In cul-
tivating. The soil was kept moist by
the use of the hose in dry weather
Two additional heavy applications of
prepared sheep manure were given.
and late in June and early in July
the reward was a fine lot of beautiful
flowers.
The plants are so strong that IL II
was desired to increase them to make
additional paintings they could be d.
vided again in the autumn.
For success with japanese iris give
them a sunny location. deep. rich soil,
frequent cultivation to keep the top
soil always loose. and then never let
the ground in which they are growing
become thoroughly dry.
All of the iris are beautiful, and the
most interesting way to grow them is
TO have at least a few plants of the
various groups. The alpinas and pu-
milas flower in March and April, both
are dwarf and are in flower until the
Germanica varieties begin to open.
These are followed by the hybrid
Crimean varieties. and later by the
Germanica, and finally by the Japa-
nese varieties.
10 these may be- added the Eng
lish, Spanish and Siberian iris The
foliage of all these is fine and the
flowers smaller than the other varie-
ties. The flowers of the Siberian are
probably the best for cutting. The pu-
milas make excellent plants for rock
gardens and for borders.

". Y, averages high in artistically
planned and we'll kept homes.
There are many fine estates in the
West, but they are not quite so easily
located as those in the East.
One OF the most elaborate of the
Western palatial estates is that of j..
Ogden Armour. at Lake Forest. a few
miles north of Chicago, consisting Of
1900 acres, which includes. an arti-
fetal lake OF twenty-five acres.
The lake was originally a piece of
marshy meadows and at great expense
was dredged out, the character Of the
surrounding ground changed by the
earth taken from the lake bed so as
to give the lake a natural appearance.
The water Is supplied by springs.
When the lake was completed It
was stocked with fish: pickerel, bass
and perch, and then rather a surpris-
ing fact developed. Within a few
years many carp Of various size were
discovered, and the puzzling question
is: How did they get into the lake?
There is no inlet except from springs,
and the outlet is over a waterfall.
The theory Is that the spawn was
brought In on the feet of wild ducks.
During the autumn storms on Lake
Michigan many wild ducks come in
to the little sheltered lake and feed on
the wild rice that is grown there to
attract them.
The main entrance of the mansion
commands a long sweeping view down
the roadway over an artistic concrete
bridge spanning the service roadway.
Unfortunately the day of my visit was
cloudy and dark, and the camera failed
to record several views, including the
one hoped to show of this bridge.

with orchids and decorative plants.

grapes and great punches Of big ripe

A small bed about thirty feet square
was neglected for three weeks before
the rainy weather set in and the weeds
had a good start. Then, Of course,
when the rain began the bed could not
be weeded and the weeds made won
derful growth. Finally the weeds were
routed out and a surprising crop was
pulled.
Properly operated that same piece
OF ground would have yielded an equal
amount of food and it impressed the
gardener with the fact that IL it had
been operated rightly the result would
have been astonishing.
The lesson is that practically no
where is our land cultivated to pro-
duce anything like the maximum
amount of food It can be made to pro-
duce. Liberal fertilizing, good cult
walton and an abundance of water is
the secret. Then. one crop should be
made to follow another without the
loss Of time.

RAMBLING NOTES.

them.
The ANNALS were set out for late
flowers and at the same time per-

constant rain has kept the ground
moist, so every plant has survived the
shock of transplanting and all are
rapidly growing into strong plants.

the flowers; the monthly roses are full
