French Riviera and the Bastogne.
The whole aura of Normandy
Farm is strictly French provincial;
it has in some intangible way (prob-
ably through the know-how of it's
proprietress, Mrs. Marjorie Hend-
rix) captured it's courtly French
charm and Riviera atmosphere by
the very visible and apparent fact
that it's accoutrements are genu-
inc and authentic; many are direct
importations from France itself
others from far flung parts Of the
Old World, carefully collected for
their beauty and historical value.
Mrs. Hendrix who has travelled
widely has certainly brought to
Normandy Farm a touch Of the
charming French way of life,
coupled with a goodly portion of
stout Saxony, all of which vie with
the very courtliness Of the place
itself.
Dinner is by candlelight and it
goes without saying that the food
is delicious. Sometime try their
Mystery Dinner" Also, don't for
get their popovers, a light, head
like confection, a delectable prep
aration indigenous to Normandy
Farm. Yes, truly, here is a gour-
NETS dream come true.
Normany Farm caters to the dip
lomatic set from Washington; you
may have an excellent Freedmen
cocktail in a atmospere of quiet
ude and serenity; your dinner is
served obsequiously but with dis
patch; the tab is not nominal, but,
at least, it is not outrageous.
Situated on a high hill only
three miles from Potomac's Great
Falls, Normandy Farm can be
reached by way of Route 20 out
of Washington to Rockville, at
which latter place you turn left
on the western edge of town, or
by way Of River Road direct out of
the nations capital. 1t would be
wise to phone for reservations.
Before you go, believe in the
magic you will be certain to en-
counter at Normandy Farm. What
it is exactly las have said be-
fore, and which / would like to
reiterate) l cannot tell you. But
it is something!
The cry atmosphere of Norm
andy Farm is conducive to a feel
ing of well-being; that "glad-to-be-
alive" sensation which comes over
US all to seldom. You can be GER
tain that the food served is the
last word in culinary art prepared
by world famous chefs; the ex-
tremely unique air of the place is
certain to intrigue you; Normandy
Farm exudes friendliness, good
cheer and hospitality.

TURTLENECK-Just like the
turtle, who sticks his head out of
his shell. you can come out of
yours in a turtleneck fashion.
There's the high, round neckline
with little cuff edge for the turtle
neck in sweaters, blouses and
dresses. There's the little pleated
scarf to give you a turtleneck look
when your costume doesn't have

look in costume jewelry! New

IF organic matter content is
low, it is well to add Well-rot-
ted manure, leaf mold or peat
moss to the soil. Some growers
prefer to place sand around
the bulbs to help drainage.
However, if drainage is poor, it
is best to dig out the bed to a
depth of two feet, add a layer
of coarse gravel and replace
the topsoi1.
Most lilies prefer a cool soil.
Mulching with straw, grass
clippings, leaf litter or other
material is suggested. Other
perennial or annual Towering
plants which give a good
ground cover are a helpful al
tentative. A great number of
lily species and hybrids do best
out in full sun, a few do bet
ter under partial shade.
BY careful selection among
the many species and hybrid
lilies available, one can have
lilies in bloom from June until
September. Lilies have a wide
range of color from pure white,
cream, pink, yellow, orange,
red and through to deep pur-
ole.

YOUR YARD
and GARDEN
BY Leonard Wager, Assis-
tant Horticultural Montana
Extension Service.

Not many gardeners have
given full consideration to the
possibilities in the use of lilies
in Montana gardens. Lilies are
perennial and seldom need re-
planting except when a clump
becomes oVergroWn. Many Spe-
cies and hybrids are available
that are fully hardy under
Montana conditions. With the
advent of many new hybrid
forms, the range of form, color,
size and height has been wild
ened very considerably.
It is best to plant most lilies
in the early fall. September is
a good month. August is the
best month for transplanting
the Madonna lily and it's relat-
ed strains. Some of the new
strains of the Madonna lily,
such as the Cascade, are more
vigorous and more disease re-
sistant than the regular form.
The Madonna lily does well
particularly in western Mon
tana.
Depth of planting of lily
bulbs depend upon the species
and it's habit of growth. For
example,, the Madonna lily,
which roots below the bulb
should be planted so the top is
about an inch below the soil
surface. Most other species and
hybrids should be planted from
four to six inches deep. Some
species that are stem roofing
in habit may have to be plant
ed deeper than that.
Lilies require a well-prepared
well-drained soil that has a
good supply of organic matter.
