The two best known are st. Brlgld
and De Caen. The former is seen
in florists windows in early spring.
The flowers are very large and bril-
liantlv colored. The flowers OF De
Caen in shades of blue, white and
scarlet are more single and the
plants grow taller.
Do not confuse these anemoneS
with the lovely Japanese anemoneS,
which grow from seed planted IN tne
spring and bloom in the fall until
cut down by froSt-hardy peren-
malls.
The camasSia is another OF the
dubious plants which is hardy with
out need OF protection. 1t does
we'll under ordinary garden condl-
tions or when naturalized in SEMI
shade. The flowers are borne on
stems 8 to feet high with dozens
of star-shaped flowers of white,
blue or lavender. c. lechtlllnl,
pale blue, is the species most COM
monty grown.
For best effect camassias should
be planted in groups of SIX or
preferably more, the bulbs 3 to 4
inches apart and inches deep.
1t is interesting to note that the
Indians valued "quamash," the
common camaSs, for food.
No discussion of early Towering
bulbs would be complete without
Iris reticulata, the fragrant iris.
This iris is one of the real treas
ures of the garden. Not only is
it lovely outside in the border or
rock garden, but it is most sue
cessful as a house plant. 1t may
be forced into bloom at Christmas
time It's delicious fragrance which
reminds one of violetS and its dark,
rich purple color make it a very
real contribution to household
plants. These bulbs need to be dug
in the late spring unless the soil
is exceptionally we'll drained.
Let us conclude with the charm
ing woodland flowers produced in
early April-the erythronium. They
90 by many nameS-faWn or trout
lilies, dog tooth violetS, adderS-
tongue and others. Whatever they
may be called with their nodding
heads. leaves that are often spotted
with a variety of soft colors, Moth
ing is more satisfactory as plant
to naturaIze in the shade rock or
wild garden. They require partial
shade and light soil full of humus
just as much like their natural
habitat as possible. Unless they
can be given a natural woodland
condition a winter mulch of decayed
leaves and coal ashes will prove
beneficial. They should be planted
about inches deep.
The principal species are all avail
able. Californicum, cream colored;
citrinum creamy on the outside,

that many samples show all neces-
sary fertilizing elements present in
toxic quantities.
Another result of these investiga-
tionS is the information that fire.
quently some one element is so
abundantly present as to interfere
with the proper functioning OF the
rest of them. A good way to cor
rect this situation is to work the
soil over and over again, pulverize
it with the spading fork and add
nothing but humus. Even this
should be eliminated if the soil is
spongy. Tightness, indicated by
soil sticking to the spade in the turn
ing process, provided the soil is not
sticky wet, is made in proportion
to the humus added.
Plots set aside for planting of
ANIMALS or peTennialS seldom need
the addition of special correctives.
Both adapt themselves admirably
to Well-tilled soil of reasonable
richness. PerennialS which remain
planted and growing in one spot
for a number of years rate deeper
tillage than ANIMALS. Food, If 1t is
to be provided, may also be incor-
porated with the soil in larger pro-
portions for perennials.
Annuals are short lived. seldom Is
their life span more than six months.
Better use inorganic or chemical
fertilizers on their beds This type
of material becomes available plant
food so soon as water converts it
into solution. Bone meal and the
organic fertilizers are not quick
enough in their action for ANIMALS.
Beds prepared with these materials
well in advance of planting time
are expected.
Soil. in relation to garden plants,
is the factory where air, moisture,
heat and sundry organisms convert
crude materials into a finished
product called plant food. Over
load the factory with raw materials
and it becomes topheavy on un-
manufactured articles. All avail
able space is piled high with crudes.

ing to be disappointed.
Various National League
pitchers already have provided
four .ohe-hitters at Shibe Park
and three of them have been
crowded into the past eight
days.
Hank Gornicki, St. Louis
Cardinal rookie who since has
returned to the minors, held the
Phillies to a lone safety on May
8. Tommy Hughes of the Phils
duplicated the trick June 8
against the Chicago Cubs. Three

mates call his third no-hitter.

single.

lean veteran of the Cardinals.
Joined the society with . 80
shutout Of the Phils in which the
only blow was q single by EN-
NETT Mueller, the home clubs
first man up In the opening inn
ing.
The Cardinals themselves
made just eight hits off 81
johnson and Bill Crouch, but
these were all they needed to
retain their hold on the National
League lead.
There was some other fine
pitching yesterday. Bob Teller
achieved his 18th victory of. the
season and eighth straight by
holding the Washington SenA-
tors to four hits while the Cleve-
land Indians slapped out . 4 to
/ decision. II was the 18th loss
in IL games for the hapless Sen

4 to 3 triumph was the fifth re-
lief success for big AL Benton,
but again the tough luck guy
was little Tommy Bridges.

three-garne losing streak. Bridges
blew bis fast ball and sharp
curves past the Mackmen for

ly grew weary in the late inn
ings and Benton was, summoned
in the eighth. Tommy famed

cept Frank Hayes and Benny
Mccoy went down swinging
three times.
ITO take Tommy out of there
after pitching that kind of q
game was the toughest decision
I've had all season." Manager
Baker declared while reviewing
the game. He certainly had the
Athletics fooled until he tired
in the eighth"
The Macks tied the score At
2 runs before Benton put out
the fire, and they got to Benton
for a run in the ninth when
Wally Moses tripled and scored
on an infield out. The subse-
quent Tiger rally was painless
for relief pitcher Tom Ferrick
because Il was 50 swift.
Barney McCosky, coming thru
for q fourth straight time, open
