One of the first essentials to a
home is the preparation and sowing
of a lawn. Where water is available,
there is no eason why anywhere in
Montana, a good lawn can not be had
with little expense and labor. A few
inches of good soil, we'll prepared and
fertilized with good well-rotted man.

for this), the surface brought to the
required grade and level, then sown
with a good grade of lawn grass seed,
preferably on a day when there is no
wind, then firm down the seed and
fine soil we'll. Water carefully but
well, car being taken never to let
the ground dry after the first water
ing, for If the seed starts to germfn-
ate and then gets dry, it Is at once
fatal to it. Follow this procedure
and success is assured. Many of the
finest lawns in Montana received and
required their first cutting in less
than 80 days after sowing. Do not
cut up a small lawn with too many
beds or trees. An expanse of good
lawn is always pleasing to the eye,
and an occasional shrub or tree,
sometimes a clump of some flower
ing low-growing hardy perennial, de-
pending on the location and the sur
roundings, are generally sufficient.

ance of the property, as we'll as at thu
time of planting, otherwise his eff
forts will not accomplish the desired
result.
The planting or shrubs around the
house itself, or as it is generally call
ed, foundation planting, should be
carefully done, and a class of shrubs
used which, as they reach their aver
age maximum growth in the climate
in which they are used, will not be
too large to harmonic with the ap-
%pearance of the building itself. These,
as a rule, can not be used very freely
where the floor level of the building
is less than about 8 feet from the
ground. When shrubs are practical,
the Bridal Wreath (Spirea van hout-
til, S. Prunifolia, Russian Honey
suck1e (for high places only, 1ilacs,
and Phfladelphus (Syringa or Mock
Orange), Sumach, another high
growing shrub, are all good subjects
in Towering shrubs for most parts of
Montana. Where the building is
large and the grounds large enough
to admit of the plan, the foundation
planting OF conifers and evergreens
Is good. But liven the picture with
a carefully placed Towering shrub
here and there.
Another much neglected form of
ornamentation in foundation work
and shrubbery borders is the planting
OF hardy narcissus and other early
spring Towering hardy bulbs among
the shrubs. Too much cannot be said
for the practice, for the bulbs will
flower often before the shrubs have
commenced to get green at all, and
when the sight of a flower outdoors
is q most attractive sight to winter
weary eyes.
For low buildings, and also for
large stretches of border, the hardy
perennials with their bewildering ar
ray of seasonable flowers and rich
colors, are always suitable. A well
selected assortment of these will fur
nish flowers almost from snow to

Thirty Dollar Land In Montana is

BY Charles d. Greenfield


Very often you hear q man or wom-
an who has lived on a Montana farm
fer a quarter of a century or more,
prospered, and possessing a nice bank
account, say that. as soon as they can
sell out they are going to California
and spend the rest Of their lives in
a state where they will not have to
buck snow.
A couple of; years ago a friend OF
mine was down in southern California
travelling over the state In an auto
mobile. He came to an orange grove,
the trees loaded with fruit. Nestled
back a short distance from the road
was a cozy-appearing dwelling. A
branch of an orange tree extended
over the road, and on it were several
ripe oranges. My friend stoned his
ear and was in the act of picking an
orange when a gray-haired man step
ped out of the house, exclaiming,

grounds, commonly known as
landscape work, had it's inception
with the advent of civilization, and
was practiced as a fine art as far as
history tells US of the splendors of
the monarchs of olden days. Doubt
less it was first used in a more or
less crude fashion long before this,
as early man found a restfulness

out them.

the Colorado blue spruce is one of
is perfectly hardy.
In planting trees, if the soil is very
shallow and poor, dig the holes larger
than required, and fill with good soil,
tramping down we'll as the hole is
filled. Well rotted manure mixed
with this soil will be a great aid in
their development. Water is a ne
cessity for newly-planted trees and
shrubs and must not be dispensed
with until they become well estab-
lished, when they will in good loca-
lions perhaps not require SO much as
the first years.
Roses, at least many varieties, can
be grown with a little care and win
ter protection in most parts of the
state, unless it be at the higher alti-
tudes. In Helena, at 1900 feet, as
fine a bed of pink radiance rose is
to be found in Hill park al M could
wish to see anywhere, and the most
protection the plants get is a loose
covering of straw and weeds in win
ter. Among the hardest roses are
the Austrian or friar, of which type
the Harrison yellow and Persian yell
low are we'll known examples. The
class Of roses known as hybrid per-
petuals are among the hardest of the
genus. Many of these like General
Jack, Paul Neyron Ulrich Drummer,
Frau Karl Druschki and many others
are we'll known to rose lovers.
In hardy vines, the Virginia creep
er is one of the best and most popu-
lar vines for Montana. 1t will cling
to almost any rough surface, and will
make the ugliest appearing rough
wall a thing of beauty. For training
over a pergola it has no equal. An
other good climber is Clematis PAM
culata. While this is one Of the small
lowered clematis, yet the blooms are
borne in such profusion, and are 80
very fragrant, that this is totally lost
sight of. This plant requires sup
port, as it will not cling to any sur
face. A lattice or chicken wire is a
good place for it to show its beauty,
and climb upon.
For hedges, the caragana or Siber-
ian pea is one of the best hardy sub
jects. The best of obtaining
a good hedge of this is to plant young
stock in a double row., about nine
inches between the rows and about
six inches between the plants In the
rows, planting alternately OF stag
gered." For this use plants from 10
to 10 inches high. After planting,
cut back to a line not over eight
inches from the ground. Gut back
each year thereafter, to a line, leav-
ing not to exceed 10 to IL inches
of the last seasons growth, and trim
ming the sides to the desired thick
ness at the same time. This will
make a hedge that is almost impene-
traDle.
Lilacs (use rooted cuttings for
this) also make a good hedge If prop
erly cared for. Plant these in a sim
gle row, not over 10 to 10 inches
apart, and cutting back as described
for the caragana.
The horticultural department OF
our agricultural college at Bozeman
is now entering upon a splendid work
in the line of suggesting and giving
aid to plan out what will be best at
the least cost to our farmers and
ranchers. No better work could be
engaged in to help make the farm at
tractive and desirable for the younger
generation, as well as for the ONE
folks.
