The golden glow bloomed some last
year from those f25 blocks of roots,
and this year they are all large and
rich.
Five years ago Mrs. Hoover had
twelve dahlia roots and she, laid
them in the cellar in the fall and
poured dry sand over them. Each
spring she set them out and in the
fall after the blooming was over she
harvested larger crop of bulbs.
They are queer things, somewhat
like sweet potatoes in their manner
of growth, only the tops have flow
ers on, or bugs: sometimes they have
both. Last fall Mrs. Hoover har-
vested fifteen bushels of dahlia
bulbs and she poured the dry sand
over them as usual and left them
in the cellar all winter. In the
spring she set them out, and if you
want to see how dahlias look drive
out to the asylum and don't be in
hurry. Mrs. Hoover is there and
she will show you around and tell
you some of the fun she has had
in arranging to inherit the flower
garden. 1t is partly matter of
work and sweat, and partly a mat
ter of letting nature have a chance
to work and play-you furnishing
the seeds or roots, and the mellow
soil with moisture. When we talked
with Mrs. Hoover about it she said
to tell people to come in and ring
her door-bell and she would be glad
to go out and help people to get an
understanding of the different kinds
of flowers she has and how to raise
them. There is certain way to do
it, like making bread or roping a
horse. 1t has to be done at about
certain time and in about GER
tain way or you miss.
Get You Pal
Mrs. Trego has luck with flowers.
She has pal who does the deep
digging and carrying of heavy loads
and they have inherited some good
looking flowers. Agood many years
ago the county board became am
bilious to duplicate her luck in the
court house grounds and she fur
nished them a drawing, or land
scape plan, for making it a paradise
in summer, and she offered to sup
ply a lot of the seeds, bulbs and
roots if they would furnish a man
to set them out the way she di-
rected him to. She would work
with him, but he must follow in
structions as to when and where
to place them, and he must do the
main part of the work. The plan was
adopted but afterwards thrown in
the waste basket and plants ordered
from somewhere but not all of
them have flourished
A great deal of planting has been
done at the city park, but only the
hardy things survived. 1t is not
worth while to plant delicate things
in this climate and then have them
die, losing the first cost and all the
labor bestowed on them
The fair board now has under con-
sideration some propositions to beau
tify the fair grounds with seeds,
plants and bulbe from the garden
of luck, and while you are thinking
about how such things would look
at your place, drive out and look
at Mrs. Hoover's inheritance and
find out from her how easily it is
done.

Got Her Choice
When Mrs. Hoover and Mrs. Ire
go were plotting together about this
flower inheritance, Mrs. Hoover said
she would like. big bank of holly
hook seeds to give feast Of colors,
and she inherited it. Mrs. Trego
handed her a great quantity of hol-
lyhock seed which her husband had
picked for fun and exercise, and Mrs.

A Shrewd Buyer Of Merchandise
Paid Us A Compliment Wednesday

could be bought cheaper and sold at a
good price because they can be passed
off to the customers as something just
as good" and he did not find it in our
stock. Our goods, he said, were more
like gold dollars, as good as anybodys
money.
We have been buying so carefully to
keep out the goods that are "A little on
the, shoddy ORDER" it made us feel pretty
good to have shrewd buyer come along
and tell us we didn't have any of that
kind. We thought you would like to
know that this is the condition, so we
hired little space in Trego's old news
paper to tell you about it.

The representative of a syndicate buy
ing surplus merchandise all over the
United States was in Blackfoot Wednes-
day hunting for goods which they could
ship across the seas to be sold to the
Russians.
He looked over our stock on the shelves
and in the basement, and said it was no
use to spend any time talking to us or
trying to get our goods away from Black
foot for SALE He said our stock was
so new and clean it was the kind that
is in demand anywhere in the world, and
is like gold dollars, as good as anybody's
money.
He mellowed up and talked some, and

Forty-nine years ago she became the wife of Eugene Stafford, and has since lived in Plainfield, Norwich, and latterly for many years in Canterbury.
 She was devoted to her home and fam fly, by whom she will be greatly missed. Besides her husband, she leaves a son Fred, and a daughter, Mrs. Hubert Graves, and three grandchildren, Louis and Marian, Stafford and Maud Graves.
 The funeral was held at the family home Thursday afternoon and was at- tended by relatives from Lyme New London, Boston and Putnam Rev. Rob- ert Humphrey conducted the services The bearers were Hiram Hawes, Herbert Williams, Levi Clark and George Smith Burial was in the Carey cemetery.
