When Once Established Numerous
Splendid Flowers viii Grow Year
After Year-Endless Combi-
nations Are Possible.

Sufficient variety In planting the
garden ANNALS will assure cut flow
ers all summer. suggests the United
States Department Of Agriculture.
There are SO many different garden
flowers that are easy to raise, that al
most endless combinations may be Sc
lected.
One would surely want an abun-
dance Of blue cornflowers, sometimes
called bachelors buttons" ragged
sailor" ragged robin" or a variety
Of other names. When placed in wa
ter after cutting, the flowers increase
in size. The seeds Of these ANNALS
should be sown in the fall or in the
spring from the time the ground is fit
to work until the last Of May in the
North and the last Of June In the
South. They may be started earlier
under glass; The young plants should
be thinned to 4 to 6 inches apart.
They thrive well on all moderately
rich garden soils. When once estab-
lished they will usually reseed them
selves year after year.
Scabiosa, often called mourning
bride. pin-cushion flower, and sweet
scablous, is an easily grown old-fash-
toned half-hardy annual that is very
attractive and satisfactory both for
cutting and for borders and beds. The
flowers, which vary from white
through rose, crimson and blue to al
most black, are borne on long stems
and keep a long time either on the
plant or when cut The seed should
be sown In the open ground after dam
ger from hard frost is past and the
plants will bloom in about IL weeks.
There are also hardy perennial kinds.
The Popular Zinnia.
The home garden Is not complete
without zinnias, sometimes called
northumberland" They are easily
grown from seed sown In the open
ground. When sOwn as soon as the
ground is fit to work, the plants will
bloom abundantly and continuously
through the entire season. OF late
great improvements have been
wrought both in the color and form |
of the flower. Their colors are white, |
yellow, orange, pink, rose and scarlet |
To secure large flowers and pro-
fusion of bloom the plants must be |
given ample room for full develop
ment as well as an abundant supply |
Of food. Strong rich soils suit them.

LITTLE WRENS DO GOOD WORK

worms of all kinds, especially the
worms that devour vegetables, are
their choice morsels.
Two or three wren boxes about the
back yard garden will prove good In
vestment. Only little encourage
ment is necessary to induce the wrens
to build. Give them little house with
a three-fOurths inch opening, and away
from cats, and they will be with you
regularly every season. Other birds
are just as anxious to help you, de-
spite the fact that some wish to be re-
warded later In the season when the
and berries ripen.
