fruits will grow. They may be kept
of dwarf size by pruning each year
if necessary. Sour cherries usually
grow slowly and do not need much
cutting back until they are six>or eight
years old. Peaches should be cut back
somewhat every year. Plums need cut
ting back to keep them from growing
too large.
From one-half to a dozen dwarf ap-
pIe trees Of varieties covering the full
season will furnish enough fruit for
the ordinary family during most Of
the year. 1t is well to have at leasr
one early and one late summer variety
one early and one late fall variety and
two or more winter varieties. Unfor-
tunately, not very many varieties of
dwarf apple trees can be purchased
from nurserymen, but that need not
keen one from having varieties cover
ing the whole season. The way to
do is to graft to the desired varieties
lust before or right after the nursery
trees are planted. To do this it is, Of
course, necessary to secure CRAFTS Of
the varieties one wishes to grow and
then do the grating, or get someone
else who understands grating to do it.
Nurserymen propagate quite num-
her Of varieties of dwarf pears so there
is no difficulty in getting trees Of pear
varieties to cover the whole season.

Severe Pruning Best
for Your Rose Bushes

Individual rose blooms of greatest
perfection are obtained by practicing
severe pruning in the spring, says the
United States Department of Agrlcul-
ture. This will result also in securing
a succession of blooms When a large
number of blooms of small size IS the
aim, the pruning is less severe. Where
the greatest amount of bloom is de-
sired without regard to the size or
quality of the individual flowers, the
least pruning is done. Pruning should
be done as soon as freezing weather
is over, In regions where roses never
suffer from cold it may be done in
the fall. All weak wood and crossing
branches should be removed every
year. For fine specimen blooms on
hybrid perpetuals the remaining shoots
should be shortened to four or five
eyes, For the greatest mass OF bloom
only one-third to one-half the length
of the shoots should be cut away.
When overpruned the tendency OF the
plants is to growth rather imam to
bloom, and a few varieties will not

Comfort and Charm in
Shade Trees About Home

Shade trees should be located with
twofold object in mind: (1) To pro-
vide shade during the hot season, and
(2) to make an attractive setting for
the house. Although this is the orGer
Of Importance in the life of the fam-
lily, the trees would best be located
having in mind, first, their value as
a setting for the house and then the
desirable points at which to provide
shade, as they will give shade wherever
they are set, but will only make
good setting when properly placed near
the building. A sufficient number of
trees should be used, however to make
enough shade to invite to outdoor life
near the house, says the United States
Department of Agriculture. Trees
should not be planted directly in front
of the house, or at uniform distances
from it, but they should be placed
somewhat to each side so as to make
frame through which view of a
portion of the front is obtained

Fruit Trees That
Need Little Room
Dwarf Varieties Are Giving
Results, Says Department
of Agriculture.

Since the cottage garden is usually
quite limited in area, it is necessary
to plant fruit trees that will not oc-
cupy too much space. The dwarf apple
and pear trees FL this need admirably
and are giving good results in the small
home fruit garden, suggests the United
States Department of Agriculture.
Dwarf apple trees are propagated on
what are called Doucin roots, Doucin
trees being dwarf in habit of growth,
and when the ordinary varieties of APP
pies are budded or grated on Doucin
roots the resulting trees are of medium
size.
The advantage of using dwarf trees
is that many different varieties of APP
pies may be grown on small piece Of
ground. The trees are small SO they
can be easily pruned and ssprayed.
Dwarf apple trees may be planted IA
feet apart each ways and should they
make such vigorous growth that the
limbs touch across this I4-foot space,
they should be kept pruned back so
as not to crowd.
Dwarf apple trees should be only
one year old when planted, and should
consist of a single shoot. The tree
should be set in the ground about an
inch deeper than it grew in the nursery.
If set deeper than this, roots will start
from above the point of budding or
grating and change the tree from a
\ c1e,. r. "a a
happen that roots are sent out in this
way and the trees make very vigorous
growth, it becomes necessary to do
root pruning, This is easily done by
spading around the tree and cutting
off few Of the uppermost roots within
about feet Of the tree trunk.
When planted the top of the tree
should be cut off about 80 inches above
the ground. This will cause it to
form a low top. After the first years
growth the branches are cut back
about one-half. After the second and
third years growth the new branches
are cut back about one-third to one
half, and any crowding or crossing
branches are cut out. After the third
years growth, very little pruning is
necessary, except to cut out any crowd
ing branches. About the fifth or sixth
year from planting, the trees usually
begin fruiting
Dwarf pear trees are planted and
handled the same as dwarf apple trees.
Peach, plum, cherry and other fruit
trees, should be planted m the cottage
garden in all sections where these

Under-Glass Plan
for Young Plants
Protection That Speeds Up
Growth and Produces
Sturdy Sprouts.

Glass, even if it be only fragment
of a window pane with which to cover
a small seed box, or an old tumbler
to set over a cutting in a flower pot,
is one of the essential materials of
a plant grower In climates where there
is frost.
French gardeners raise acres of
plants under "cloches," or bell-shaped
glasses of various sizes, which set
over the individual plants to speed up
growth. Wonderful lettuce is grown
this way.
Glass keeps the heat in and the
cold out, while letting in sunlight.
This is the chief principle of the hot
bed, which is an essential institution
in garden of any extent. The heat
usually furnished by fermenting horse
manure is conserved and fostered by

APRlL's LAST DAY

April was smiling, smiling, and
chuckling and laughing and Mother
Nature said to her:
april, why are you smiling and
chuckling and laughing as though you
had something up your sleeve, as the
saying ISL"
"Ah, Mother Nature, have a little
last prank to play on the people.
Eyes, | have another little joke be-
fore leave and before Mistress May
comes dancing along with her sunny
fowery dress and the blossoms in her
hair.
Eyes, just one little joke has April
before then. And tomorrow is my
time"
'You haven't a great deal of time"
said Mother Nature, 'for tomorrow IS
your last day for this year.
IF you do not have your little joke
very soon you will have to wait a
whole year.
'.Ah yes, 1 know" said April. but
l will have time for my joke"
''Are you going to tell Mother Ma
ture what it isl"
"Come close, SO can whisper" April
said.
And Mother Nature bent close to
April and it seemed as though there
was feeling in the air of perfume and
of sunshine and Of showers all blended
together.
''That will be a joke Mother Ma
ture said, when April had finished.
yes said April, II thought I'd have
a lot of fun that way"
And then as April and Mother Ma
ture were talking Mr.. Sun put on his
birthday robe of scarlet-red and said
"Well, I must be off to bed for to-
morrow I must be up bright and early
and not oversleep.

the blanket of nonconducting glass,
which does not allow it to escape rap
idly by radiation as would metal, or
even wood.
When a hotbed cannot be main
tanned conveniently because of the
difficulty Of securing a supply of fresh
horse manure as its foundation, diff
Guilty that is becoming more real each
year, a coldframe or heatless hot
bed can be used as a substitute, al
though it cannot be utilized for a
month or six weeks after the hotbed
usually is at work.
Hotbeds may be artificially heated
by steam or hot water pipes, but only
a few gardeners will be able to afford
such a luxury or will have location
to permit it being used conveniently.
The construction of a hotbed is not
at all complicated. In fact, any frame
built to accommodate glass cover
may be used, provided it is of suffi-
cient extent to encourage fermentation
of manure. While it is best to use
the standardized hotbed sash sold
by all dealers, which are feet by
3 feet each, old window sash may be
utilized for the purpose.
Touchdown frames to hold this sash
are sometimes sold, but they can be
manufactured by any carpenter or by
the gardener himself if he is at all
handy in the use of hammer, saw and
nails. The usual unit is 6 feet
to inches by feet, accommodating
two standard sashes. The extra inches
are necessary to permit Of the plac-
ing of cross strip between the
sashes upon which their inner edges
may rest firmly. This crosspiece
usually is grooved so that any mois-
ture that may seep between the edges
of the sash and the crosspiece would
drain down the groove and not drip
into the bed beneath
If the bed is to be permanently To-
Gated it is best to make the frame of
heavy lumber, Pinch stuff that may
be bolted together with angle irons in
lighter lumber is available, and 1t is
lighter to move and handle without
knocking down the frame. The back
of the sash should be Is inches high,
and the front 6 inches to 10 inches.
Some types are IL to Is inches high
at the back and s to 10 inches in the
front These, however, are only use
full for seedlings and low growing
plants. The taller type will keep the
plants until they have attained con-
siderable height and is also available
for coldframe in which plants from
g to 10 inches may be wintered.
A frame should always face the
south, with no houses, trees, or other
objects to cast shadow over it or
cut off the sun If sloping land can
be secured for the frame it is an added
advantage if the land slopes to the
south, as it will give more direct rays
