WMSI THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX, PORTLAND, 31 ARCH 6, 1910. Hardy Perennials of Olden Days Are Again Becoming Popular Improved Strains of Plants Raised by Our Grandmothers Will Convert Any Garden Into Place of Beauty. l o e r F l o w e e s Reflect Your Personality BY RALPH R. ROTJTIaBDGEJ. THK old-fashioned gardens of our grandmothers contained a wealth of gorgeous bloom throughout the en tire Sumjrier, from early Spring until Autumn. These gardens are again com ing Into popular favor and since the d vent of the new and highly improved (trains of perennial plants, such as holly hocks, delphlnum, Canterbury bells, etc., it is possible . to convert them into ver itable bowers of beauty. Beginning- aJ most before the snow Is off the ground, early-flowering varieties open their blos soms as welcome harbingers of Spring. In the Eastern States, no class of plants enjoy greater popularity at the present time than the hardy perennials. In the "West they have made rapid strides into public favor the past few years, until now they may be considered to have a prominent and permanent place in our Western gardens. Everywhere they hava given the beet of satisfaction. According to the modern idea, of land scape gardening, the ideal garden is not one whose beds are laid out in geometric lines, but rather one where there is a closer resemblance to nature, and this can best be effected by the use of peren nials and herbaceous plants, which give the greatest range of color and at the came time a continuity of bloom through lout the season. Almost every week, un atll late in the Fall some new variety kbursts forth into entrancing loveliness, fblooming so persistently as almost to jlefy Jack Frost 1ti his efforts to subdue the floral kingdom. A start may be ob tained at- so small an expenditure as not to be counted when measured with the satisfaction and pleasure derived from them. Once planted they are there to stay, requiring very little care, , increasing in tdze and bloom and growing better from year to year. Perennial plants-are those that live year after year, only dying to the ground in Winter, the roots remain ing alive and dormant in the ground; this distinguishes them from annuals which must be raised from seed each season. Perennials can be raised from seed, but very few of them bloom the first season. therefore those who wish to get Imme diate results should get field grown, one-year-old plants. Some of the most popu lar perennials are, antirrhinum (snap dragon), aquilegia (columbine), beilis (daisies), Canterbury bells, hardy chrys anthemum, delphinum (larkspur), dian thus (pinks), digitalis (foxglove), gaillar dia, gypsophila (baby-breath), relianthus (sunflower), hollyhocks, myosotis (forget me-not), phlox, poppies, sweet William, etc. Flowering bulbs and roots such as paeony, Darwin tulips, iris, crocus, snow drops, anemones, lilies, narcissus, dahlias, gladioli, etc., are very desirable in per ennial borders. In connection with the above plants, roots, etc., the professional gardeners are planting ornamental and ' flowering shrubs, such as a Cuba, althea, azallas, berberry, cotqneaster. Daphne, deutKla, hydrangea, rhododendrons, roses, virbur num, welkelia, etc By combining the three classes you can get any color effect wanted and have a continuous display' of bloom and bright foliage the year round. Any one desiring detailed information on any of the above plants, or shrubs, can easily obtain it from inexpensive text books, or by reading the up-to-date seed, plant and tree catalogues Issued be reli able dealers in this line. Portland now has some of the .most practical and ex pert landscape architects and gardeners in the United States and it is gratifying to see that our home owners are rapidly becoming more and more interested in the beautifying of their city and country places. Portland Is so favorably situated and enjoys euch ideal weather conditions that it can have the most gorgeous and beau tiful floral display and lovely green lawns, during the entire year. Many people will spend thousands of dollars on the home, inside furnislxings, etc, and yet on account of the lack of knowledge or expense of a practical gar dener, neglect the beautifying of the yard or grounds. Remember a beautiful, well-kept lawn, or grounds adds greatly to the appearance, in fact, nothing adds a greater air of refinement, or the real touch of aristocracy to the home than a beautiful lawn, flowers, shrubs and trees. Tnree Things Should Receive Attention of Spring Gardener Fertilizing, Spraying and Selection of Best Varieties of Fruits, Flowers and Vegetables Will Be Found Most Important. Br E. J. LADD. RESOLVE to have a better garden this year better fruit, better flowers, better vegetables. This does not always mean a larger garden; sometimes it is better to reduce the size of the old garden one-half. A good maxim ls "Plant no more than you can fertilize and thoroughly care for." Make a careful study of the three im portant garden, requirements fertiliz ing, spraying and best variety. Plan your garden and make ,a diagram on paper, drawn to scale, before placing your spring order. As soon as the soil Is in Rood condition, w'ork in the pre viously applied fertilizer and cultivate thoroughly. Much harm can be done to garden soil by digging and trying to work It while in a wet and heavy ,condition. More time Is lost than gained jby so doing, often resulting in poor crop, if not complete failure. Soil that readily crumbles and does not stick to tools is in good working condition. In marking off your garden, use a line or .-board long: enough for each row. Noth ing adds so much to the looks of gar dens as straight rows. For early vegetables, you can plant now: Peas (the smooth kinds are h ar id! er than the wrinkled varieties), on 19ns' (either sets for early or seed for later use), radishes, lettuce, beets and turnips. Follow planting of radishes and lettuce abjout two or three weeks apart for succession It is astonishing jthe amount of fresh vegetables that 'can be grown in a. small space, the rich paces between our famous roses can 'le utilized In growing crtsp and sweet -radishes and lettuce, pulling the un used lot out by the time roses are iblooming. Every garden, no matter how small, can be made to produce fruit. Straw berries can be planted now, and if properly cared for should yield at least one quart to each plapt. Choose a va riety that is doing well in your lo cality. Let those with more room than you have experiment with the new and costly varieties. Plants cost from 2 to 4 cents each. In planting, use a line, and by intensive culture you can plant closer than those who grow in fields. Set plants no deeper than they grew before transplanting. If roots are very long, shorten; plant. 16 inches apart in row. If rows are double, alternate plants. If properly set, no check will be observed. Keep clean, runners cut off, and the second year each plant should yield at least one quart of de licious berries. Raspberries and blackberries can be planted close to a fence. Loganber ries and those requiring support must be planted with this object in view. From one planting of loganberries the writer has picked- 25 pounds of ripe fruit. Gooseberries and currants re quire but- little space, and will repay trouble and. care, tvnubarb does well in rich garden soil. These small fruits are so readily and easily produced, all may enjoy fresh fruit from their own gardens, if they will. Of course the flower bulbs were planted long ago. and are now showing through the ground. Though late, you can yet plant with fair degree of success. Sweet peas give more and better flowers for the ( iwYCDieu 'iiiiui Lny oilier iiower. Plant now, trench deep, and as the tops grow, draw the earth, up to the tops. This buries the roots deep and cool, a condi tion much desired. Divide and plant per. ennlals. If crowded for room give the neighbors some. Pansies are among the best of early flowering plants. Forget-me-nots and lilies of the valley are all low growing and deliclpusly sweet. So much real sat isfaction and pleasure can be gotten out of a garden no matter how small, that it is a wonder mora people do not enter into the enjoyment of It, as a pursuit health ful and instructive, to say nothing of the profitable features.

Levinson, Sunday editor of The Ore gonian, in his enthusiasm during Sweet Pea time last Summer, wrote to us a letter referring to the polite and attentive assistance received in our store from our sweet pea expert. After referring to "superlatives over the extreme beauty of blos soms he promised would develop from six varie ties of seed he selected" and the expert's assur ance of "large blooms, three or four on a stem, stems twice as long-as a full grown lead pencil." Sir. Levinson writes that "at the height" of the season the harvest" is "precisely what he said it would be. My Sweet Peas are the admiration and envy of everyone who sees them." Mr. Ievinson offers to testify that our new white sweet pea, the "Helen Scott," originated In Portland, is finer than was ever dreamed of by the most noted pro . ducers.

LONDON, March 3. (Special. 1 The Birmingham Small, Arms Company has received an order for many thousands of rifles for the Austrayan government. The rifles are for the cadet forces. The order which -will provide employment for the next 12 months, gives the greatest satis faction to the working people, with whom work has been rather slack of late. The rifles are, probably needed to meet the (rreatly-increased demand - owing to the "universal service scheme" coming into operation. Cadet training: is now compulsory in Australia. The Australian government is at the present time build ing a small arms factory of its own. Choir Will Sing "The Crnelf ixion."
