Regal lilies and many Of the other
lily species are planted to advantage
in late Autumn.
The Madonna lily develops a rosette
of leaves at this season Of the year.
This cluster stays more or less green
ly normal development of this lily. In
Spring the upright fiower-bearing stalk
arises from this rosette of leaves.
AS noted in previous article, Au-
tumn is an ideal season for making
new lawns or, patching up bare spots
IN the old lawn. Grass is cool wealth
er plant, thriving under conditions
which favor Winter grains.
1t is interesting to note how toma-
toes. potatoes and other crops have
responded to increased moisture by
sending out new growing shoots. The
soil foods were present all through
the dry weather, but the plants were
unable to use them without adequate
water to bring them into solution.
There is no object in hurrying to
dig up gladiolus and dahlia bulbs until
after the plants are actually cut down
by frost. Just as long as the leaves
are green, the plant is manufacturing
foods for storage in the roots, thus
preparing itself for a strong renewal
of growth the next growing season.
of grapes which reach US from Cali
fornia cannot be grown to advantage
in our Eastern gardens, as they would
greatly prolong the season. However,
nearly three centuries of testing have
given generally unfavorable results.
Here and there grower meets with
some success, but the European types
of grapes don't seem to be at home in
Eastern United States. Grape breeders
are producing hybrid types in large
numbers, some of which combine the
better qualities of European and
American species. There is undoubted-
ly great room for improvement in most
all American fruits. It is hardly to be
expected that such stable plants as the
grape can be changed in few years,
but in the course of time new types
will be nodded by the plant breeder
that will equal the California grapes
in every respect.
Amateur gardeners should make the
most of the Autumn horticultural
shows. There is no better place to
study varieties unless it be in the gar
den itself. There are always expert
enced gardeners at the shows, who are
more than pleased to answer questions

BEAUTIFUL DAHLIA.

The dahlia easily is entitled to recog-
milton as the queen of Autumn outdoor
flowers. The combination of short days,
cool nights and moist soil apparently is
the ideal environment for the dahlia.
One might very we'll add full exposure
to sunlight and liberal supplies OF plant
food as essential requirements. Within
a very few years the dahlla has bcen
converted from the old-fashioned, late
Towering formal type of bloom into
wonderful diversity of forms and color
combinations. The staid old type OF
solid blooms has given way to single
collarettes and cactus lowered varie-
ties with their long refieXed and dainty
petals. No other plant exhibits more
strongly the effect of the master hand
dahlia itself is highly changeable and
partly because of its ever-increasing
popularity.
The dahlia is pre-eminently homo
garden flower 1t is easily propagated
and easily raised if one has an open,
sunny garden. The flowers are too
short lived and 100 fragile to give them
high value as a commercial bloom,
compared with such long-laSting species
as the rose, carnation and chrysanthe-
mum. However, the dahlia is not as
flowers mentioned. There are no plant
diseases of any special hazard, and be-
yond a few comparatively rare insects.
such as stalk borers, the dahlia is not
troubled by insects.
The past season has not been fair
year to gauge ones ability to produce
good dahliaS. In other words, the
home gardener who has not met win
great success this year should not be
discouraged to try again, for, as rule,
Washington and vicinity is favorable
locality for the dahlia. Notwithstand-
ing the dry weather, there are many
splendid dahIias in the city and suburbs
this year. In witness thereof there was
the shipment of gorgeous blooms sent
to California by the Montgomery Sub
urban Garden Club and grown IN
Somerset Md. by Dr. Howard Watkins,
one Of the members of this progressive
organization.
