New House at 1540 N. 18th
Has Conveniences and
Excellent Taste
There is something about the
word "home" that stirs warmth
In the heart of man. In many
languages the word which stands
for the English word home Is
"house" or "dwelling" and does
not carry the same lnclusivene39
of many associations as does
"home" which - may mean fam
ily, cozy warmth, beautiful fur-
nlshings, cheer, friendliness, so
ciability and much more that is
personal to individuals.
There is many a house that is
not a home for reasons best
known to the Individuals who
' lire In the house. One thins is
true, the builders of houses are
more and more becoming expon
ents of laying a foundation for
a home.
There i one section of Salem
j which is being developed with
" ' the idea of "homes" ..as a basic
principle if one is to' Judge by
the exterior of the houses and by
a few of the interiors which have
been observed. The reference is
to North 18th street and to the
section which comes inland to
the north part of Market street.
There is a house at IS 40 North
18th that will be open today
which is very attractive both in
side and out and bears especially
worth while" points.-
1 It has 'five rooms trrfh art hin
flnished upstairs. The matter of
sufficient room has been minded
in building with the result that
even though there is not such a
large ground space there seems
to be no crowding.
Exterior is
Attractive

wide spread rather low arrange
ment. This wide spread line is
obtained by extending the house
into a garage to the north and
causing the lines of connection
to he so smooth as to carry
through the complete plan of the
house structure.
A tiny porch which is really
only a small projection of the
roof protects one while the door
is being opened. When the
house was observed there was no
furniture In it but it did not look
bare nor-a bit unfriendly in
fact it looked quite , Inviting.
Much color, low ceilings, plenty
of light and fresh warmth ef
fected the refelt -of friendliness.

Is a niche-like shelf brought to
an arch at the top to Imitate a
cathedral window. In the wall
opposite the fireplace is a group
of four built in shelves, small
" but attractive, where favorite
1 books may be placed to a better
advantage than lying carelessly
about on tables. 1
The woodwork Is all a light
tan grey which greatly reduces
I ' "the appearance to critical gaze
lf the accidental speck of dust. The
V walls are stipled in green, tan
and old rose in such fine effect
that the result is almost a foggy
glow of color. This color effect
is used In all the walls of the
house and thus extends the idea
of breadth and width to the
rooms.
Kitchen Real
Work of art
The living room opens into the
dining room by an arch. A small
hallway opens off the dining
room and off this opens the gay
est bathroom in shades of laven
der and cream, and at either end
of the hall opens a bedroom.
The kitchen is the real work
of art. It is finished in shades
f green, and - buff with black
line for contrast. Built-ins are
everywhere. There was not room
for a breakfast nook so a wall
table was made that folds up
like the ironing board and may
be let down in the morning for
quick use. The Ironing board is
right beside It and all the wood-

Preparing Seed Bed for
Sweet Peas is Described
(Editor's ,nol i ,TW Sper Ja pr
entd throiigh the ' cnirtey of the
Liberty hVoTTiuti's! chfci fend- was writ1
ten by Mrs. W.R. Dallas.)
As sweet peas are so delight
fully important I will tell vyou
briefly about preparing a seed
bed for them. Dig a trench pre
paring the soil in the usual way
to a depth of 12 inches or more
and incorporating a good quanti
ty of. rotted manure, bone meal
and wood ashes. It is essential
that the trench be well drained
for seeds will stand freezing hut
not long soaking. The ground
should be tramped down to make
it solid. The top of the bed
should be slightly above the level
of the surrounding soil.
Mark a furrow three inches
deep and if the soil is heavy put
In an inch of sand. Sow seed
and cover two inches deep. Mulch
as soon as the ground freezes, not
before, because mulch in warm
weather creates undue heat and
the seeds will begin to grow.
Now is also the time to take
hollyhock cuttings. This is done
by taking new growth from the
base of the old plants and root
ing in sands so the bloom will be
the same as the parent plant for,
as is known, hollyhocks do not
always come true to color from
seed.
Cuttings that grow by tipping
should also be made now. Among
these are honeysuckle lavender,
and other similar plants. These
should be rooted in sand.
Perennial seedlings which were
sown in early August may be
large enough to transplant into
a well drained and privileged cold
frame; if they are to be left in
the open ground they will need
considerable mulching.
There is a shrub which is not
so common here but which has
much to recommend Itself for
planting that is the witch hazel.
Now is a good time to plant it

This plant take its nap in the

condition' to - stand the" 'dtValn' of
winter rains and freezes. Too, if
broken branches are removed and
burned there is a big step taken
toward preventing carrying over
or spreading of diseases, and in
sect pests.
There is another type of plant
that needs attention this time of
year. These are the house plants
which includes such favorites as
fushlas, begonias, geraniums and
such. Pruning, cutting back,
transplanting or pinching out,
will insure an abundance of bloom
later on. This will also cause a
stock branching growth and
makes a better looking plant.
Plants that are not bound may
now be replanted. Pots, if old
ones are to be used, should be
scrubbed with a good stiff brush
so as to open the pores. One mis
take made in repotting is filling
in with soil around the roots and
merely pressing it down on the
surface. . The soil should be care
fully ' rammed in around the
roots with a small flat stick such
as a pot label.
In speaking of plants let me
call attention to the beauty and
value of a living plant or a pack
et of favorite seeds for a Christ
mas gift. The seed should be
gathered early.

Bloom When Other Flowers
Fade and Don't Mind
Summer Slights
By LILLIB M. MAGEB
This is the time of the year
when the lowly old fashioned
marigold comes into its own.
During the summer and early
fall when there ! are so many
beautiful flowers the majority of
gardeners pay little attention to
the marigolds but they bloom on
regardless of slights,
Now when the dahlias and
gladiolis are frozen and even
the chrysanthemums are begin
ning to look shabby, the mari
golds seem to have taken a new
lease on life and are a mass of
gold and yellow.
In the city the flowers are pro
tected by the buildings and are
not killed by frost as easily, as
in the country gardens. In the
country dead flower stalks and
shabby trees may make one feel
a wee bit melancholy but if he
has an abundance of marigolds
it is surprising how much enjoy
ment there still is In gardening,
and how many gloomy looking
spots can be brightened.
Marigolds don't seem to mind
in the least being moved this
time of year even if they are in
full bloom.

Only a few days ago she chang
ed a spot near her kitchen door
that had been an ugly spot each
fall and made of it a thing of
beauty. To this spot she added
chrysanthemums and now in
place of an unsightfy corner she
has a garden In full bloom.
Marigolds are easily raised
from seed and when once started
will usually reseed themselves.
They bloom from summer un
til Thanksgiving and even later,
unless there are unusually hard
frosts.
A very attractive centerpiece
for Hallowe'en or Thanksgiving
can be made by hollowing out a
pie pumpkin and filling it with
marigolds.
The Calondula efficienalis, or
well known marigold, is a na
tive of southern Europe and has
been in cultivation for 300 years
or more.

after the holiday season has pass
ed, than a plant could be? Do
not select something of the hot
house variety that only lasts a
week or two, at the most, but
make the plant a truly hardy
house plant, a fern, begonia or
aomething similar, that will keep
on growing more beautiful and
carry not only the message of
"Merry Christmas" but "a happy
new year" the whole 12 months
through.

There are sereral other Tari
eties of marigolds. , Among
those well known are the Afri
can and French, which are na
tives of Mexico and hare been In
cultivation a great many years.
The corn flower marigold is
found in the corn fields of Eng
land, and is used medically and
when dried is used for hay. In
Germany it is nsed for yellow
dye and in ancient times has
been nsed for food.
The marsh marigold called by
Shakespeare "winking ' Mary
buds' -grows In the British Isles
and its flower buds are used as
substitute for capers.

How Does Your
Garden Grow?
By LILL1E L. MADSEN
On the floor of the main pavil -
ion of the recent Pacific Interna
tional Livestock Exposition t
Portland was a shrub display
which attracted more than usual
attention. - And the drawing card
in the display was a group of lit
tle hushes' literally covered with
white, pink and reft berries about
the size Of cranberries. At first
glance one took the white-berried
variety to be some form of the Da
tive' shrab most of us term as
"snow berry." Closer investigation
revealed that their leaves were
more like .the huckleberry or a
coarse form of heather. Certainly
they were attractive much more
so than a typewriter can picture
them.
These shrubs are the Pernettyas,
or so-called South American huck
leberry. They are not. particularly
well-known here and we were told
that only once before had they
been displayed at Portland. As far
as we could learn but one com
pany in Portland carries these
shrubs at present.
The Pernettyas are a very good
rockery shrubs. They " grow but
three feet, or thereabouts, high,
and their berries remain on
thoughout the winter, giving color
when color is most-needed. They
prefes" at sandy peat Boll tan aflidl
soil and Willi mat prosper in a
heavy- clay or too rich garden
loam. Such soils must be lighten
ed with plenty of sand and peat.
The chap in charge of the Per-
; nettya display at the Pacific In
! ternational told us that they look
ed best in groups but I think
any gardener would be proud to
own even one of these really in
teresting little shrubs. They are
not particularly expensive and the
berries are edible although quite
tart.
Rose Enthusiast I think the
variety to which you refer is the
Madame Cecile Brunner. This
comes either in brush or climber
form. The buds are the tiny, per
fectly formed ones that we fre
quently see in the florist's bou
quets. I am not acquainted with

Easterner You ask if there is

Is nothing in a name when it
comes to "Mayflower." A few
years ago I tried to track down a
dainty little pastel tinted flower
known as the "Mayflower" in our
Michigan and Wisconsin forests.
I found a gardener who special
ized in native flowers from the
world over "Ob. Yes." she had
the flower of which I was in
search and she showed me a
"Trailing Arbutus"! That, seem
ingly, is the "Mayflower" of the
New England States. Other visit
ors at the garden Informed me
that "something else" was the
"Mayflower" in the Dakotas(and
Nebraskans had yet another
"Mayflower." A search through
the gardens revealed that my
"Mayflower" was in reality a
Hepatica Acutiloba. (Mentally I
still call it Mayflower).
The. Hepaticas are a lovely lit-
tie t flower to cultivate and a de
lightful reminder of childhood
days in eastern woods. They are
fragrant and, if given the proper
care, reach a height of four or
five inches. They like a leaf mould
and sand mixture. I had a little
difficulty in getting them to be
come permanent residents of the
Willamette valley, but by expert
menting I found they could be
grown quite successfully here. My
most successful attempt last year
was with a clump grown in a
pocket of leafmould and sand be
tween two rocks to secure the
drainage they seem to require. I
had taller plants shading them
from the midday sun.
If you want Hepaticas to bloom
next spring you should secure the
plants and get them In as soon
as possible, for they are early
bloomers, you know.
