A COOLIDGE REMARK

Once a guest remarked that he had slept in the East Room. Later he explained that violinist play ing for the Coolidges had soothed him to sleep with languorous notes. When the playing ended, President Coolidge, sitting beside him, shook his knee to awaken him.

all fine plants for the hardy border and many of them, especially ara bis, sedums, and saxifrages are most excellent rock garden subjects.
 There is only one biennial plant that we can highly recommend. That is Canterbury bells. It grows 2-2's feet tall and produces its bells in white, lavender, blue. or purple. It dies after producing one crop.
 There are two half-hardy pereil- nials that are usually treated as an- nuals. They are pansies and snap- dragons Both are too well known to need description. More pansy plants are sold in Juneau annually than any other kind except cabbage
 Annual Towering Plants
 Among the annual Towering plants, best results with some kinds are obtained by setting out s aricd plants, while others are fast grow ing and come in bloom quickly from seeds Next to pansies the Towering plant that sells best in Juneau is the calendula or Scotch marig0ld. Down in the States when marigOld is mentioned it is generally a species of Tagetes, the African ard French marigolds. that is meant. While both of these do fairly well here, they cannot compare to the out standing way the Scotch marigold develops. Asters are satisfactory II sheltered from wind and rain. Sum mer chrysanthemums grow 2-3 feet tall and are one of the best of an- nuals in white to yellow CynogloS- sum or Chinese forgetmenot is fine blue, especially for bouquets. Lobeha is fine for borders or window boxes. Other good window box an- nuals are Swan River daisy (Brach- ycome) shizanthus, butterfly flower or poor mans orchid); alys~ sum; calendula; candytuft: godetia, French marigold; nasturtiums; stocks; petunias eff shelteredD; and many others.
 The following species develop rap idly from seed and the seed should be sown where the plants are to grow alyssum candytuft, centaurea (bachelor button, cornflowe0 esch- scholtzia California poppy); gyp- sophia (baby's breath); nasturti ums; all annual poppies; sweet peas; also clarkia and godetia.
 Sweet Peas
 Sweet peas grow well but if it is too cloudy and rainy they will drop their buds. Sweet peas together with clarkia. godetia, and schizanthus should be grown where the rain and wind do not harm them. The other flowers just mentioned stand the weather fairly we'll

 Dahlias also may be started in mid-April in pots or boxes, but should not be set out of doors be- fore May 25 as, they are very tender and sensitive to frost Both glads and dahlias should be planted 50 that the top of the bulk is 4-5 inches below the surface of the soil.
 Of lilies only those of the elegans and umbelIatum groups are satis- factory here. They are locally called tiger lilies. They are best planted ill the fall but can be moved in the spring. Anemones and ranunculas can also be planted in the spring but the bulk of the bulbous stock such as daffodils tulips, crocus, etc must be planted in the fall.

 Guests who come to the White House for the first time are usu- ally awed by the size of the East Room. Converted into barn it would shelter 30 head of Jerseys and 10 tons of hay. When guests ask what it is used for MT. Grim always tells them dances and receptions. Often he is tempted to tell them: sometimes we have dog fights in here" He never has told guest that. however.

proper ripening and hardening Of the wood. The wood passes into win ter soft and full of sap, hence can not withstand hard freezes. In such condition temperature of 10' F. above zero may kill the wood out 'ght, whereas in a dryer climate with fair fall weather the wood rpens properly so that the same variety could withstand a tempera- ture of 10' F. below zero without serious injury. This same principle renders many kinds of very desir- lble shrubs listed in the catalogs from the States unreliable here, md greatly reduces the list of hrubs suitable for Southeast AL aska.
 In hardy perennials, the list of
 vailable kinds is large but we will mention only a few of the most atisfactory. In the tall class, those rowing 4-8 feet tall, the two out landing kinds are delphiniums and foxglove (digitalis): the former in various shades of blue from laven- der to purple, the latter with tubu- lar spotted flowers in shades from white to roSe-purple. Also, the con- ite, or monkshood, in blue is tall growing. In the class of plants grow ing 2-4 feet tall, few outstanding kinds are aquilegia, or columbine, in various shades; hemerocallis, or day lilies. in shades of yellow and orange; lychnis chalcedonica, or Jerusalem cross, in scarlet; oriental poppy, scarlet, salmon, or crimson {; pyrethrum, or painted daisy. in shades of pink to red; shasta daisy, white; phlox, Miss Lingard, white with eye; most other varieties Of hardy phloX come too late; Siberian iris, blue; trollius, or globe-flower yellow; doronicum, yellow; hesperis, or sweet rocket, in reddish and white Peonies are not as a rule sat- isfactory.
 Perennials
 In the group of perennials grow ing from 1-2 feet tall, we have the hardy fragrant Scotch pink, the old-fashioned Sweet William, both kinds in the various colors of the white to red series; the Iceland pop py in white to yellow and orange red; and the herbaceous spireas, or, more properly, astibes, in pink shades. In the group of perennials growing as a rule less than one foot tall, we have arabis, or rock cress, commonly but erroneously called snow-on- the mountain, one of the first plants to bloom in the spring, in both single and double white; ; Englisf. daisies( Bellis) in white to red; some of the hardy pinks; the ever lovely forget-me-not, which, in addition to blue, has pink and white varieties and is native to Alaska, being our territorial flower; hardy primroses in various colors of yell low, red, maroon, etc.; fleshy se- dums in variety; saxifrages of seV- eral species in white and pink; vio- las of various shades, most of the cornuta varieties such as the Jersey Gem, deep blue, being hybrids with pansies and seemingly but little harder than the pansy parent. There are, however, few violas that are perfectly hardy, the best of which originated right here near Juneau and looks so much like 8 violet that it would pass as suca. The above low-growing plants are
