increased by taking cuttings In the late
Autumn and handling them much as

GARDEN NOTES

This Is the finest period of the whole
year for outdoor flowers and the. finest
year in many respects that local
gardeners have enjoyed for long
while. Contrary to expectations, most
plants seem to have been benefited by
last years drought; that is, where they
did not suffer any direct injury at the
time. Take the iris, for instance. 1t
is blooming more freely this year than
usual and the stalks are taller and finer
than ever or course, the abundant
moisture of late is factor, but not the
whole reason, because in the iris, ac-
cording to B. Y. Morrison. the flower
buds are probably laid down the Au-
tumn before they appear as flowers.
Last year must have favored flower bud
formation In the iris. Likewise the APP
pie trees bloomed heavily everywhere
throughout the drought areas.
The SNOWY blooms Of the snowballs
are odd in that they are completely
sterile, having neither pollen nor pis-
ills. The japanese SNOWFALL. Viburnum
plicatum, Is distinct improvement over
the SNOWFALL that was so often seen in
old-fashioned gardens. The japanese
variety, possesses very vigorous foliage,
upon which are never seen those large
colonies Of plant aphids that are in
variably associated with the older va
riety.
Calendula, cosmos and marigolds are
especially rapid IN their seeding deyel-
