 stems. It is useful in the border allowed to naturalize in drifts at the margin of the lawn, or near a body of water.
 When bulbous plants are nat- uralized, this should be done where the grass can be left un- mown until the leaves have ma tured. If the leaves of narcissi and other bulbous plants are cut while green, there may be no bloom the following year.
 Another summer bulb is the tuber rose. It is one of the most fragrant flowers and well adapted for cutting.
 Do not plant tuber roses until the ground becomes warm, and dig up the bulbs before frost in the fall, for thebulbs form their flower buds year before they bloom and, if chilled, the buds are killed inside thebulb.
 Nothing will add more digni- fled beauty to your garden than well grown tulips.
 The cottage tulip Mrs Moon, at right is one of type that blooms in May about the latitude of New York. These tulips usually have more pointed petals than the Darwins and are apt to be more permanent in the garden.
 Tulips, because of their size of bloom and generally spectacular nature, should be planted in groups, preferably of one color, to be effective. A tulip planted alone appears desolate.
 Dahlias furnish one of the most showy garden plants for fall as well as some of the best available cut flower material. They should

It is believed borough assessors were responsible. Local officials hope Naugatuck residents will learn a lesson from this and in the future be less careless In ascertaining whether or not they are being overcharged on the lists, that is for property not be- longing to them. Many claim the value of the property. they own as the assessors, rate 1t is wrong' but there are sometimes the same ones who put their property at much higher figures than the as- sessors figures when they have a chance, to sell.
 Careful inspection of the lists In the future would serve as check against possible mistakes. Offic- ials point out 1t is the duty of the citizen to look after his own in- tercsts.
