John Lewis Prefers Garden as
Unit Rather Than One to
Produce Bouquets
BY JOHN H. LEWIS, MINOT. N. D.

f, BY JOHN H.. LEWIS, MINOT, N. D.
(Rcprtnted from Gladi0lus Review
There are many answers to this
question; in other words, many kinds
OF gardens. In the deserts of Asia,
water Is the principal feature; the
garden consists of pools, fountains
and q little greenery. In Italy also,
some attention is usually paid to
water, but the garden is primarily
architectural, and it's outstanding fea-
lures are columnar evergreer.s and
statuary or pottery. The famous park
at Versailles in France Is an example
Of the some feeling; SO are parts Of
Hampton Court in England, in a more
modified form. The formal garden
generally makes much Of trees. The
smaller English garden, the cottage
garden" and most of u American
gardens, are informal in spirit.
Trees or high shrubs are absolutely
needed as a background, unless we
resort to the less satisfactory walls,
which do not have the greer.ery Of
trees; shrubs may be greatly in evil
dence; but flowers have CONF to take
q much more prominent place.
There are, frankly, two kinds OF
American gardens, a garden for
picking, or for the individual speci-
men in flowers; the other for the pic
ture, a kind Of outdoor living room.
One need not condemn either. but. as
beauty inevitably includes suitability
and compatibility, it is only the gar
Gen which is grown as a unit in itself,
and not for its products, that makes
a truly artistic and beautiful whole.
It Is such a garden that Is more prop
erly q garden, and that I for one like
to make: and, more and more, lovers
Of the beautiful come to this type.
The newly developing gardener prob
ably begins with flower beds cutting
up the lawn-few of us have escaped
that early stage - but he comes in
time to the point where he would no
more do that than he would exhibit
his new automobile in the parlor.

and shrubs is more desirable. It is q
question to be decided according to
the circumstances Of each particular
case whether we want the background
Of trees alone, Or of shurbs alone. or
OF the two together. There is more OF
q contrast with trees; q more gradual
transition, tying the garden to the
landscape, with the two, the shurbs
of course in front, or with shrubs
alone. Again. it depends much on
the nature OF the particular land
scape.
No Earth Should Show
In such a garden 1t is desirable
that no earth should show, that the
green grass and plants should cover
the whole ground. This means some
sacrifice of the utmost development
of the individual plant. Like human
beings in civilization. it must yield
some of its rights to the greater rights
Of the community. This is not all q
disadvantage. even from the point OF
view Of the individual plant. because
the mass of surrounding plants Will
shade the ground and preserve mois-
ture, and to that extent prevent bak-
ing out and contribute to the develop
ment Of all the growth.
Paths subject to "heavy traffic
should be of gravel; but those which
are not, and in a fairly large garden
most are not, are much lovelier made
of grass.
Not only must height, color, form
and time Of blooming be carefully
considered, to determine whether
various plants go we'll together; but
the individual needs of the plants
must be studied in order that the sit
uation assigned them, while not idea
from the point Of view Of individual
development, may give them a fail
| chance in the world. Whatever thu
artistic result might be, heavy feeder!

and pansies may be planted in tn

Avoid Choppy Effect
A choppy effect is not beautiful
beauty demands long and graceful
lines. So. make your borders as lon|
as your situation will allow: ant
plant your flowers in masses, rathel
than in single specimens of enc o

Borders, not beds, should be almos
the invariable rule. Whether thes

 Forty-Six Members
Scully War Time Mayor Reviews Workings of Draft
 Purse Given State Commander Kelly

Forty-six new members were in- itiated into the Waterbury Chapter of the Disabled American Veterans association in Columbus hall last night at a testimonial gathering in honor of State Commander Edward Kelley of Meriden, who was pre- scented with a well filled purse as a token of appreciation of his service in behalf of the disabled veterans.
 After the ceremony of installation addresses were made by a dozen or more speakers. John J. Mulligan, commander of the local chapter acting as chairman.
 Martin Scully who was mayor of Waterbury when the United States entered the war;, said 1t gave him much pleasure to be present and join with the Disabled World War Veterans association in expressing appreciation of Edward Kelley's ef- forts in behalf of those who suf- fered injuries in the great overseas struggle so that after 1t was over they were unable to care for them selves. MT Scully reviewed how the draft operated in Waterbury in the course of which he said that owing to the unusual activity in the factories, Waterbury was credited with a very much larger population than 1t has now. The city's quota, he said, was based on the registra- tion taken up by order of the gov ernor and as result the number of men sent to the war from here was much larger than 1t would have only on the permanent resident population.
 It was a source of much gratifica- ton to him, he said. and to every other citizen to know that the Wa terbury boys and the American sol- diers from all parts of the country had proved themselves more than a match for the trained warriors of small degree in turning the tide of victory in favor of the allied powers. He praised MT Kelley for his in- terest in the disabled veterans and said he was pleased to meet so many of the boys apparently as sound in mind and body as when they an- swered the call to arms 14 years ago this month.
 Mayor Hayes told the gathering that this city will never forget the boys who left here to defend the nation. He said a special thanks is owed MT Kelley for his efforts in behalf of the Waterbury boys in securing compensation. "I hope you new members will take seri- ously the oath you have taken to- night, especially that of loyalty to our country" Mayor Hayes said. He pointed out that much Is being heard about the changing principles that tend to undermine those ideals for which the veterans and their precedessors fought. In introducing Mayor Hayes, Commander Mulligan pointed out the city's chief executice was most sympathetic with the dis abled veterans because his own brother, Lieut. Col Seery Hayes was a disabled veteran.
 Homer c. Northrup, representing the c. A. R. told the story of Ben edict Arnold, stating that he put his own opinion above that of his country's. Charles Ladue repre- sented the I'D and George Byrnes the V. F. W.
