Perennial Flowers
Require Little Care

Hardy perennials bear early and
SNOWY flowers, a fact which gives them
a field of their own, points out the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture In addition to this, both early
and late Towering kinds are of easy
culture and are relatively permanent
so they can be used with satisfaction
about suburban and city homes where
only a little time can be devoted to the
care of plants.
Herbaceous perennials may be used
very much as ANIMALS to add the color
of flowers to permanent shrubbery
paintings, and they may also be used
in garden making either alone or with
other classes of plants. Because of
the time it takes to grow them or the
expense of purchase they are not suit
cd for producing temporary effects in
tha way that ANIMALS are sometimes
used. Shrubs are SO readily estab-
lisned in their appropriate places that
no advantage is gained by substituting
herbaceous perennials for them.

May Have Lettuce
for Every Season
Popular Vegetable Should
Be Started Indoors TO
Get Good Plants.

Lettuce has come to be a staple veg
etable on the table. 1t appears in
many families almost as often as pota-
toes and fills a dietary need quite as
important It supplies in cheap and
most palatable form the vitamines A,
and G, which have been discovered
to play so large a part in health main
tenance.
Next to Swiss chard, lettuce is the
most profitable vegetable for the home
gardener. 1t will be found even more
useful than chard, for it will be well
coined on the table every day, which
can hardly be said of chard. Every
well-planned home garden should pro-
vide for a succession of lettuce crops
which will provide the finest quality
for the longest season, and this takes
careful planning.
Lettuce is a cool-season crop. When
hot summer comes it runs to seed so
quickly that from the last of July to
the first of September it is possible

only in shaded beds, carefully tended,
which comparatively few will bother
with. But during the rest of the gar
den year some variety of lettuce is
possible.
There are four types of lettuce gem
orally grown in this country but
ter-head, crisp-head and cos. All let
tuces tend to make heads. In some
sections it takes coaXing to make any
Of them head 1t requires to be grown
fast. without check, to produce the
tender sweet leaves that we enjoy.
The soil, then, must be light, quickly
warmed, as rich as possible, especially
in nitrogen, and there should be a
plentiful supply of water. The richest
spot in your garden should be chosen
for lettuce and then it should be ma
nured, if possible, and additional feed
ing with nitrate of soda is advisable.
The first variety to sow is head let
tuce, which should always be started
indoors. The plants may be set out
doors as soon as the garden soil can
be prepared Keep a reserve in case
the first planting should be killed by
a hard freeze. In very rich soil, with
such an early start, head lettuce OF
these varieties should be ready in 20
days from date of sowing.
When the head lettuce is set out
sow seed of leaf variety. This may
be sown thickly and thinned out to
one plant every two inches. Alternate
plants may then be harvested half
grown, until a spacing Of six inches
has been reached. All lettuce varie-
ties need at least six inches in the
row to reach full growth, and some
need more.
Seed of a crisp-heading type, such
as New York, the largest OF lettuce
varieties, or Mignonette, one of the
smallest and surest to head, may be
sown at the same time as the leaf va
rieties and the seedlings transplanted
when they make true leaves. New
York must have at least a foot be-
tween plants in the row. 1t will ma
ture slowly, stand hot weather well
and furnish the last crop of the first
season.

esteem as the finest of lettuces, may
be started indoors or outdoors to fit
into the succession where one pleases.

fall season omit the crisp-heads and
start the desired varieties in shaded
seed bed in July to be transplanted
when the cool weather comes in late
August. -National Garden Bureau.

COT TA6E e. e
GARDENER
TO Supply Table
With Vegetables
CoIdframe Is Advocated as
Means of Providing the
Crispy Greens.

Kitchen gardens were a necessary
adjunct to the home in the earlier days,
but at present a kitchen coidframe is
advocated as means of supplying the
family table with fresh lettuce, pars-
ley, radishes, cress, and other vegeta-
bles at periods of the year when it is
too cold to grow these things in the
open ground While it is true that the
coldframe may not give very good re-
suits during the winter months, espe-
cialIy in the northern part of the coun-
try, yet in the early spring excellent
results may be had from its use, ac-
cording to the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.
The construction of a coldframe is
comparatively simple, as the side walls
may be made of boards, brick, hollow
tile or concrete. Where the construc-
ton is of boards, cypress lumber should
be used, and it is a good plan to have
the walls made double and some dry
straw or planning mill shayings packed
in the space between them. If the
walls are of brick, they Should be
plastered, both inside and out, to make
them alright. Hollow-tiTe walls
should also be plastered the same as
brick.
One of the best types CT construction
is simply to put in little foundation,
then set up frames and lamp in we'll
mixed concrete consisting of about
three parts clean, broken stone or
gravel, two parts sharp sand and one
part cement. The ingredients should
be placed on mixing board or in a
box and thoroughly mixed while dry,
then water added gradually and the
mass turned three or four times until
it is thoroughly mixed and is of con-
sistency that can readily be tamped as
1t is put into the forms.
The size OF coldframe to build will
depend upon circumstances. Standard
coldframe or hotbed sash are 3 by
feet in size and the frame may be con-
structed to accommodate one, two, OF
even as high as five or six of these
sash. The front or south wall of the
coldframe should be about - inches in
height, while the rear or north wall
should be "a to 80 inches high, and
the ends slop-ng to correspond with
the front and rear walls. Wooden
plates, preferably Of 2 by 6 cypress
material, should be bedded on top of
the wall and held in place by bolts

Pigeons in the Desert

An interesting application of carrier

service in the opening up of the large

opened through this section, uninhab-
tied except for wandering bands of
Navajo Indians. Touring cars will
take passengers across the desert to
points of interest. To guard against
delays from breakdowns, and to keep
park headquarters informed of them,
carrier pigeons will be carried in these
cars and released in case of difficulty.

Rafters upon which the sash rest are
fitted to these plates. At the upper
side of the bed a sort of overhung
board should be put on in such man
ner that the end of the sash will slide
up beneath it, making the bed tight
The lower end of the sash should ex-
tend slightly over the edge of the bed
to carry off the water.
In addition to the sash covering
straw mats, blankets or even old car
pet may be used to keep out cold.
Where the coldframe can be located
on the south side of the garage, this
will give it extra protection. A we'll
constructed bed Of this character will
provide lettuce and other salad crops
without the application of artificial
heat. Plants may be started in the
living room during February and plant
ed in the bed in March, giving a sup
ply of salad for the table during the
spring months or until outdoor let
tuce radishes and spinach can be
grown.
