Tores bulbous plants vrhleh I think unrybe aud vrith rood, effect daring thoselate -winter month and early-spring when other blooming- plants are apt to be scarce; are tbe Amaryl lis, Ismene calathlna (Peruvian daffodil and-the-Gloxlnia.-They form a. delightful, sequel to hya cinth, narcissi, "cyclamens ana ; other winter bloomers, and- are 'easily purchased from any large : seed firm. All three -hare qual ities rendering them desirable for winter culture. They are of easy, .rapid growth, they with stand adverse household -' con ditions, and they hold a high place .- among decorative plants. They also mar. be said to be rare, or semi-rare for household window gardens, at least. - It requires very little effort to grow them, the main require ment being to pot them correctly at the start. The Amaryllis will grow In any good soil, but If possible mix one part leaf mold to two parts good loan I for them, - adding enough sand, to Insure good drainage. If the soil requires fertiliser, do not add too much. The method of pot- ..tlna Is a, Terr important one the size ok the pots should be suited to the slxret that. bulb. For In stance; bulbs of about J hi Inches In dUmeter may be flowered in four-inch pots. When potting, fill the pots to about M inch from the rims, cor erlng the bulbs for about one-half their depth, leaving the "necirand shoulders" bare. If the bulbs are planted too deep in the pets, they will . derelop . foliage, and the flowering as a rule wilf be delay ed. Tbey should be crown in an atmosphere that is comfortably warm. and after flowering should be watered freely to develop fol iage. When all danger of frost is past, they may he taken from the pots and planted out in the gar n den wtere they will ripen their foliage. Pig them up before cold weather, and store until they are ? wanted again. The Ismene Calathina (Peruv ian, daffodil) i Is grown in the same manner as; the Amaryllis, ex ' ceptlng that gopd loam is all that la needed, with a little sand mix ( - k) 'St ' . ; LQIW HUH By LILLIE L. MADSEN XTnoruestionably. coniferous ev-; ergreens hare their rightful place in the ordinary garden or yard, but we see them misued sa -much .thst it would ; e m sometimes that they had better be left out of the ' plantings. Two of the greatest mis takes made In 'using them are plant tng the wrong varieties and pi Anting them In the the wrong' locations. . Purpose should be your decid ing factor in selecting conifers. There are now conifers for every purpose. Far too frequently the wrong ones are used Jn planting; Fond .a I ant ot them I do, not enjoy seeing a small boust all hot crowded off the lot by white pine. Scotch, pine, Norway pine. Doug las fir, Canada hemlock, Colorado blue spruce and others of the tan growing varieties what "were such lovely little trees when we planted them." One has a habit of growing fond of the things that bare been with them constantly for a time and it is difficult to make up one's mind to remove a tree that on "planted when Tom was a year old" even If that tree is crowding everything out. For this reason real care should be used fn selection. The .ultimate size must be considered. I have tried to make a list of evergreens and their "grown-up" size. A nurseryman ehecked the list for me so that It would be s nearly correct as possible. The columnar type of conifer which grows from eight to fifteen green Junlperus Chinese Column aris. Blue Column - Lawson Cy- feet tall Include the - blue and press, America, Pyramidal arbor- vitae, Hill Silver Juniper. The 'Bush" conifers reaching from three to six feetat maturity in clude Pfitser Juniper, Japanese Table Pine (Pinus .Tanyosha Glo- bosa).. Dwarf Japanese Yew (Thu ya Bouglassl A urea) and the Si berian Arber.Yltae (Thuysv Siber ica).,In the ereeplnr vergr class those reaching frera 1 to 2 feet taU and. wUh a spread atJ maturity of from eight to fifteen feet in diameter, we have the creeping juniper; ( Juniperas Hor iiontslis), Waukegan Juniper, Jn niperas - Sabine . Tamahissifolla (which is a lovely thing In spite of its name), Jd Parsont Com pacts Abor. yitas: (Thuya Com; pacta). t r, -u;- . :.; ri I The latter group 1- good ' for rockeries and : ground covering. The other two groups are partic ularly good for foundation plant- log where their slxe fa suitable. : ' , A nurseryman listed the follow ing for Individual speciman plant ing on la wi. which can ears- for individual specimens: tajr vane ties Koster and the Colorado Blue Spruces, Blue Colum cypress, Norway Spruce (Picen Excelsa), Red Cedar . (Junlperus ' ylrglnl ana). and most of the pines, flrn and Hemlocks. Some nice ones not quite as tall as these are the Hinekl cypress, Arrowhead spruce and Irish Juniper, Swiss Stone Pine (Plnus Cembra), Silver Ce dar (Junlperus Glauca) the Pyr amidal Red cedar. For low grow ing specimens there are the Mug- ho Pro, Koster Red cedar, Jap anese Tew (Texas Cuspfdata Bre- viioua) and any amount ot otn ers. All the Junipers seem to like light soil so that it you hare some poor soli a a sultabl place for a Juniper you have a fortunate com bination. Practically all the Jun ipers stana pruning well and, in fact most of them are benefitted by it, growing denser and more snapely. It Is well to study conifers well before selecting them. Usuallr the small, slow-growl a. g- varieties are toe most expensive, but if your space Is small It Is better to se lect one of these or no conifer at all. The best place to study the conifer is In a large nursery. Ths grower wn knows his varieties can tell you whieh ones may be uejwnaaa upon to stay small and how to prune them to keep them wuum oounas.

Each market Classification the rail trade, do mestlc cargo and export shared in the gain. Production at these 224 mills decreased 8,100,000 feet during the week from the pre vious period. While the major gala In the week's orders was in the Atlantic coast market. Increases were reg istered In rail delivery sales br many of the mills serving the In terlor ot the United States. Deal- era' lumber stocks throughout tho central west are known to bo ex tremely low and generally badly broken and some buying for fill ing in purposes was anticipated by tho Industry. It Is, however. Im probable that the increase In or ders last week mean .tho begin ning or a delayed fan buying movement by city and country lumber yards. Mm prices have been fairly firm during tho past so days and lnereased slightly in September tor the first time In 19 months. Production is decreasing steadily and stocks are gradually being lowered. Statistically, the situation of tho manufacturer 1 steadily Improving. A total of 344 mills reporting to the West Coa-.t Lumbermen's sssoclation for tbo week ending October SI, operated at $$ per cent of capacity, as compared to 31.9 per cent of capacity for the preceding week, and 44.1 per cent for tho same week last year.

In speaking of tho begonias aays that while these are so very popular in England and other European countries, tbey are practically unknown to the majority of American gardens, Most of those grown hero bare been grown in greenhouses and conservatories or a pot plants for tho house and porch. Mr. Cooley has shown how rery well they do In the open ground in tho Willam ette valley. They bloom from In ly until frost.- They are rather demanding in that they desire full shade and a loose soil, rich la peet moss or leaf-mold. Tho tubers are treated much as the dahlias are. In that they are dug when the heavy frosts set In and stored In a cool, dry, frost-proof place during tho winter. They are set out again in April or May. inouuES AVAILABLE IN WES T IB MUCH mum 'Knack With Flowers is The i better a i ' - ow " ,wr--.--.'"" " Attribute Worth nav becoming garden. nig .

It was this: A certain favorite story ot his, a classic in Its way. was to bo shown on tbo screen st a certain Salem theatre. He should like to see lt ho said. O gawd, bow. he should like to see it.
