|HE control of black spot disease
of roses is the greatest obstacle
to successful rose growing in
l. this locality, and for that mat
ter. anywhere that hybrid tea roses
are grown. DR.. Philip Brierley of the
Department of Agriculture, speaking
before the Takoma Horticultural Club,
told the members that they could not
expect 100 per cent control of this
disease, even with the most effective
program, but that they could grow
good roses. Very finely divided sui
phur. so fine that it forms cloud
of dust all around the plant at the
time of application, was said to be the
best control material. Such sulphur
must be powdery enough to pass
through screen mesh with 300 open
ings to the inch. A hand gun is
required for effective application. The
best time to apply the dust is while
the leaves are dry. preferably be-
fore rainy periods, so that there is
protective coat on the upper and
lower leaf surfaces when the spores
are circulating. Sulphur dust is most
effective during the moderately warm
days of Spring and Autumn, when the
black spot is at its worst. DR.. Brierley
pointed out that the black spot spores
grow slowly in Midsumer, when the
temperature is excessive, but on the
other hand. do develop slowly at
temperatures as low as 40 degrees F.
For plants that were sprayed with

have like conditions If they are to
succeed. For some difficult species
he brought home bags Of soil to give
the plants their own environment.
Mr.. Crandan has succeeded in do
mesticating such difficult species as
pink lady slipper, trailing arbutus
and other denizens Of the wild.
AS indicative of the rapidly in
creasing interest in the Spring flower
ing primrose or primula, 1t is inter-
, esting to note that their culture was
the subject of a talk presented to
the Garden Section Of the Takoma
Women's Club by James M. r.
Adams. People interested in prim-
roses are invited by Mr.. Adams to
visit his garden at 23o Spruce avenue
Takoma Park and to see for them
selves what a colorful display the
primrose can make. His garden will
be open May 5 and 10 and week days
after 5 pm.

Garden Notes.
WITH the old-fashioned poet mar

WITH the old-fashioned poet mar
Nv cissus Recurvus about the only
variety yet unbloomed, the season for
this flower is drawing to close. The
cool wet weather of early April just
suited this species to perfection.
After weeks of waiting. the time
has arrived when hanging baskets and
porch boxes can be planted with as
surance of safety from frost. The soil
for these baskets should be better
than that taken from the ordinary
garden. It should be loose and por-
Gus as we'll as fertile. A mixture OF
half leaf mold and sand or half OF
peat moss and soil to which has been
added bone meal or other good fer
tilizer, is desirable for filling the
boxes.
The Towering dogwoods and the ma
tive azaleas are breaking into bloom
in the nearby woods, giving evidence
that Spring is really here. The dog
wood grows usually as an understory to
larger forest trees and this tolerance
for partial light makes the plant of
great value for use in shady loca-
tions. There is a pink dogwood that
is much rarer than the white variety
and possibly more attractive. The
pink variety Is more costly because of
the fact that 1t has to be budded and
does not come true to seed like the
common white form. The dogwood is
found from New York to the Gulf
States and is truly typical of the up
land forests in early Spring.
The gardener that has a leaf pile
composing for his needs is the envy
Of his less fortunate neighbors. From
the base Of such heap one can OBJ
tain rich black humus ideal for the
plant boxes and beds. 1t takes a
rather large home place to provide
space for composing, but it is very
much worth while where practicable.
The gardener who throws in few
handfulls of sulphate of ammonia
and hydrate lime among the leaves
hastens the decomposition and en-
riches the final product.
DR.. Richard P. White OF the New
Jersey Station at New Brunswick as
sertS that one of the main causes of
leaf diseases in the shrubbery border
is crowding of the plants, which pre-
vents the entrance of sunshine and
the circulation of air. He advocates
the cutting out of dead and weak wood
and the feeding of the shrubs to pro-
mote sturdy growth. Above all should
come foresight in not overplanting in
; the beginning. It is always difficult
to look ahead at the time of planting
and enviSion the final development.
r The more that one sees of the jap
anese yew as a foundation plant the
more enthusiastic one becomes for
this fine species. Unlike many other
evergreens, the yew holds its color
throughout the year, and its dwarf
habit of growth precludes it from be-
coming an overgrown nuisance.
One reads so many favorable re-
: marks regarding the Columbia phlcx
that it is certainly a temptation to
purchase plants. The variety, pro-
tected by a plant patent, is said to
resemble the older variety, Elizabeth
Campbell. but the eye markings In
Columbia are family blue.

SMALL DWELLINGS
LEAD BUILDING
F. H. l.. B. Survey Shows
One and Two Family
Homes Top List.

Construction of one and two family
dwellings led all residential buildings
throughout the country in March,
according to an analysis by the
Federal Home Loan Eank Review of
building permits reported to the
Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Homes of this type accounted for
1877 per cent in number of all pro-
iected building for the month, this
study indicated. This is a higher
proportion of individual family home
construction than for any month
since 1881. Dwellings for three or
more families accounted for only 20
per cent of the months building ac-
tivity, compared with 35.7 per cent in
February.
Not only was March the Nations
best home building month since 1881.
but the increase in residential build
ing activity over February was shared
by every one of the IL Federal Home
Loan Bank districts except Chicago,
where decline in March is attributed
to an exceptionally large volume of
permits issued in February. The rate
In the Los Angeles district, which has
led the country each month of the
first quarter, rose in March to 49 new
dwelling units per 100000 population.
Every district showed important
home building gains as compared with
March of last year.
The average rate of small dwelling
construction for the United States
in March 1886 was II dwellings per
100000 of population. The average
for each Federal Home Loan Bank
district follows:
Boston. 6; New York, 18; Pitts
burgh, 9: Winston-Salem. 28 Gin
cinnati, 9; Indianapolis. l3; Chicago,

the blooms, instead Of opening prac-
tically all at once, are slower so that
one finds buds and full-bloom flowers
on the same tree. j. c. Wister in his
book, Four Seasons in the Garden,
speaks highly Of the Towering crab
apples and states that even the smaller
gardens can well include the dwarf
Sargent crab for in a period Of 20
years it may not grow over six or eight
feet tall. The species known as Pyrus
horibunda and its close relative, Pyrus
atrosanguinea, grow somewhat taller
and are characterized by more intense
coloring Of the petals. The origin Of
many Of these species is not fully
known as they are presumably natural
hybrids between older forms. When in
bloom there is not twig, not even the
young terminal shoots Of last years
development, that is not covered with
bloom. Like most slow-growing trees or
shrubs, the crabs are not symmetrical
growers-here and there a limb grows
out by itself-but this form of growth
is attractive by its very picturesque
ness. The Towering crabs are partic-
ularly effective when nassed in groups
but are also desirable as specimen
trees.
Iris Pumila.
THIS dwarf iris with flower stalks Of
only to 10 inches is now passing
its zenith Of bloom just as the regular
garden varieties are beginning to show
color in their buds. On the larger sub
urban places, where space is available.
the dwarf iris makes a brilliant dis
play when planted in mass. The pre-
dominance of blue and purple shades
make the blossoms conspicuous despite
their humble position. Because of it's
low-growing habit this iris is also USE
full in rock gardens.
Among attractive varieties are Mar
ocain, royal purple; Petite Daniel,
clear blue: Citria, lemon yellow; Blue

that sulphur dust or any other fungi
eide such as bordeaux mixture, is
of no avail after the leaves are once
spotted with the disease, except to
protect the new growth. That is,
once the spores have entered the leaf
tissue they are protected from con-
tact with spray or dust. Dusting Is
a comparatively easy task and il
followed consistently, will reward the
rose grower with healthy foliage and
fine flowers.

Azaleas.
MANY front lawn in the suburbs
~ is now resplendent with vivid
azalea plants. Even small plants foot
high are a solid mass of brilliant red.
Many Of these plants originally came
from the florist as potted Easter f1ow-
ers and were set out in the open
ground afterwards. Azaleas are acid
soil plants and thrive very nicely in
local soil as evidenced by the native
pink azalea in the woods. Peat moss
makes splendid mulch for the azalea
and when fertilizing one should use an
acid-promoting material such as sui
phate Of ammonia rather than nitrate
of soda. Lime should obviously be kept
away from the azaleas and rhododen-
dronS.
The Garden Clubs.
MEMBERS who attended the April
49, meeting Of the Takoma Horti-
cultural Club must have come away
with the impression that wild flower
growing would be a most fascinating
hobby. Ernest Crandall presented
an excellent talk supplemented with
some splendid lantern slide views oi
wild flowers growing in the soil. II
was very evident that successful wild
flower growing involves much more
than simply going into the woods ano
bringing home material to the home
garden. Mr.. Crandall advised thai
success depends on providing as nearly
as possible the same conditions as OBJ
tanned in the wild. That is, plants

"Pd like very much to walk on
Sunday"
It was a date and, thinking of
it, Pete pushed his hat a little
more to the side as he walked
through the quiet town, whistlin%
ON his way home. He didn't 60
directly home; he stopped at Il
newsstand and bought all the Hol-
| lywoot magazines.
Linda wanted to think Of him
after he left. She wanted to go
back, step by step, over all that
had been said between them be-
fore he had surprised her by his
self-serious proposal, but she fell
asleep, thinking about Dix and
wondering how much time would
elapse before she heard from him.
The next day she wrote to Dix
ON her new, black bordered sta
tionery. 1t was little note thank
ING him for his expression of SYM
pathy, and adding that, since she
could not go out, she would like
TO have him for tea on Sunday.
Linda forgot her date with Pete
Gardiner.
She dropped the note in the
box and then went home to plan
for Sunday. She must not be too
sombrc; she would wear smart
little black velvet frock and she
would fill the house with flowers.
/ She knew thai her mourning
would have Il deep influence on
Dix, and the cnchanlment Of their
companionship had been paced by
gaiety.
There were four more days un-
til Sunday. Every time the tclr-
phone rang, l.inda'S heart jumped
to her throat as she took the re
cciver from the hook. She sorted
the mail with trembling fingers
and tried to put time from her
mind. Dix was busy. lie might
not have received her note. He
might be out Of town. He might
be i'll. He wouldn't write. He
would telephone. He couldn't dis
regard her note. He wouldn't
want to, she kept assuring herself
with faltering belief.
She dared not leave the house
for fear of missing his call. The
houSekeGper was too old to be re-
lied upon; that was the excuse she
gave to herself. Deep in her heart
she knew her real reason was that
if Dix called and said he couldn't
come on Sunday, she hoped she
could make him suggest another
time.
On Saturday Vida Jennings

Linda's right hand in those days
