But Any Time in Spring Is
Good to Plant, Says
Seed Man.

Friday has been designated by

ware st. 1T Is in spring that
the city dweller appreciates, more
than at any other time, the magic
wrought by growing things, and
sees that no really beautiful house
is without a setting Of trees or
shrubbery," Bash said.
But a house need not be large TO
be beautified by planting. In fact,
the loveliest effects are frequently
seen in the small house, where a
bloom laden rose gives the final
touch Of beauty 10 the entrance
porch and dropping splrea, burdened
in May with a wealth Of white
blossoms, breaks the sharp outlines
of the foundation. And the fruit
trees-without them a house hardly
seems a home. In spring one has
the beauty Of their blossoms. in sum-
mer and fall the rich harvest Of
their fruit"
THE earlier the plants and seeds
are put out, the sooner the flowers
will bloom. Our shrubs have
arrived and are in. excellent con-
dition-all the plants are large and
well-rooted, and the roses are al.
