arbors or trellises and other Orna-
mental purposes. In the opinion OF
he United States Department of Agri-
culture. roses are not very Satisfac-
tory for hedges. as most types are
neither sufficiently compact nor suf1i-
GENTLY branched to make really good
hedge.
Native species, and those least modi-
0ed by mans crossing and selection
IRE most suitable for lawn and border
planting. Border roses should have
little pruning, the removal of the dead
wood and the cutting Of the whole
bush to the ground every five to eight
years being the best way Of handling
most varieties.
Climbing roses used for arbOrs and
trellises may be managed either to
dive an abundance Of bloom or to pro
duce shade, but they cannot do both
satisfactorily. and they are not well
adapted to the production of shade as
many other plants. Climbing roses
should be pruned just after blooming
By having the wood Of the previous
years growth removed.
Cut-fower roses need clean culture,
severe pruning and special care; there
fore they should be planted by them
selves In secluded beds and should
not be used to beautify the grounds
% place Of the roses appropriate for
lawns and borders. Cut-fower roses
should be cut each spring to within
SIX inches or one foot Of the ground
for finest blooms, or one-third to one
half the wood should be left IL the
object Is large quantity of blooms.
The essentials for satisfactory rose
growing are a well-drained retentive
soil, thoroughly enriched, preferably
with rotted manure. Cut-fiOwer roses
particularly need heavy annual ma
nuring. Special. care must be exer-
clsed to prevent the roots from drying
when out of the ground for transplant
ing. Dormant roses should have from
one-half to two-thirds Of the wood re-
moved at the time Of transplanting.
"atchfulness is the price Of success

VIII 90 best on a deep, mellow sandy
loan, says the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. There is little
possibility of having the land too rich,
ana liberal applications Of partly rot

before the plants are set. The seeds
or asparagus may be sown during the
early spring in the rows where the
plants are to remain and the seedlings
thinned to stand IA inches apart in the
row at the end Of the first season. 1t
is usually most satisfactory to pur-
chase twO-year-Old roots from some
scotsman or dealer. The roots should
be transplanted during the late au-
tumn or early spring.
Before setting out the plants, the
land should be loosened very deeply,
either by subsOil blowing or deep spad-
ing. It is a good plan to remove the
topsoil and spade manure into the sub
soil to depth Of IA or 16 inches then
replace the tOpsoii and add more
manure. There are two methods of
setting an asparagus bed depending
entirely upon the kind of cultivation to
be employed in the garden. If the
garden space is limited, the plants
should be set in solid bed one foot
apart each way. In setting asparagus
the crowns should be covered to q
depth of four or five inches
The part of the asparagus used as a
vegetable is the young shoot that is
thrown up during the early spring
The shoots are removed when about
four or five inches in length by cutting
slightly below the surface Of the
ground, but care should be taken that

story of the Paris post office: Last
summer the Grosvenor library OF
Buffalo was asked the height and

library had not the figures available
and sent to headquarters to find out,
writing directly to the Louvre, Paris.
The reply came back on the letter

Louvre, and said: 1--WE are pleased
to give you herewith the inquiries re-
uuested." Then followed prices OF
bronzes of the Venus of various
heights from 2SO francs to 300 francs.
