SIMPLE LINES AND WOODWORK CUT HOME COST
The very elements that give
this house a distinctive appeal
also further its economy.
Ita lines are regular and there
is no special mill work anywhere
to add either to cast of material
or to time required in building.
But no sacrifice of beauty Is en
tailed rather the opposite.
For Instance, the shutters can
be made by the carpenter on the
job, three to five boards being
nailed together, without mould
ing.
The clapboards can be made of
any well seasoned lumber which
will stand the elements,, white
pine or cypress being 'among
these. Uneven edges and surfaces
will bring out the desired effect.
The material used . in the
porches is the same, the roof
probably being of shingle.
If any finish is used on the
woodwork it should be such as to
bring out Its natural character,
the adz marks showing through
and the rough edges of the clap
board and trim being very effec
tive. The lower part of the exterior
walls is of stucco, stone or per
haps whitewashed brick.
The frames around the win
dows are typical of the house.
They are made from simple ads
marked pieces of wood about 3 by
4 at the jambs and 4 by f lintel
mullions between windows 1 by
4, either of cypress, oak or white

The dining room and living
room share the comfort and shade
of the porch. Both are cross-ventilated,
and the living room
catches breezes from three sides.
The location of the kitchen at
the front of the house keeps mod

mind and puts the housewife
within easy reach of the front
door.

HOW
By LILLIE L. MADSEN
This week's "How Does Your
Garden Grow?" will assume the
qualities of hash, I fear, for I
have received
so many inquir
ies during the
past two weeks
that I decided
to answer them
all at once as
nearly as I can.
Some of the an
swers are a rep
etition, for, it

questions some
time ago.
Such an one is" What shall I
do to control the rust on holly-
nocksT" Again I answer, "Spray."
Use either a diluted Bordeaux
mixture or a solution of sulphide
of potassium at the rate of one
ounce to two gallons of water.
This will not discolor the foliage.
As a matter of fact the Bordeaux
mixture will not discolor the foli
age if the mixture la not too
strong.
Snapdragons like a limed soil,
enriched with leaf mold or de
cayed manure.
Have you cut off the dead
blooms from your lilacs? If you
haven't, you should do so at
once. This will Induce better
bloom for next season.
Did you know that cottonseed
meal was an excellent fertilizer
for rhododendrons and azaleas?
It contains the nitrogen which is
so essential to" their successful
growth. And did you know that

deudrons aren't doing well you
might try adding a teaspoonful
of either of these to the soil.
Lilacs aren't the only shrub to
be pruned at this season of the
year. Most of your spring-flowering
shrubs should be pruned
back now or as soon as they are
through blooming. If you prune
off some of the flowering wood
from this year your plants will
gain in vigor for next season's
bloom and will also appear more
neat during this summer.
It has been suggested that a
few top minnows be -added to the
pools as these feed on the surface
of the water and do away with a
much greater quantity of the
mosquito larvae than do the
small fancy goldfish.
Speaking of pool fish, one Sil-
verton gardener recently had a
lesson In "what not to do." The
gardener decided that a green
bottom in the pond would be very
attractive so proceeded to lift out
the fish, paint the cement bottom
green, leave it stand for a few
days and then put her fish back
in. The fish disliked the paint so
much that only two of the 50
fish survived, and these two were
rescued when the others began to
die. Mrs. Gardener removed the
paint and added more fish,
whether or not the effects of the
paint would have worn off or not
I do not know, but I Imagine that
after sufficient time had elapsed
the fish would not be harmed.

is the season of the year to di

increased to several crowns these
can be separated and planted in
loose soil ' and watered (unless
this rain keeps np) until growth
haa started. Nearly all of your
primroses should be divided at
least once In three years to do
their best. It they are cot divided
until autumn you are apt not to
have . so very many blooms, al
though they will still give you
quite a nice display. I suppose I
shouldn't tell this, but this year
I divided mine In early March.
Just as they were beginning to
bloom. I was really surprised at
the amount, of flowers I got after
doing such a thing to them. How
ever, I do not advise doing this
as I have had better results when
I followed the rule of dividing
just after blooming season.
Speaking of primroses it is
Interesting to grow them from
seed and certain varieties ger
minate easily. Others are exceed
ingly slow In germination. I have
planted primrose seed in June
and have had nice large plants by
autumn. I set these out in Sep
tember and they bloomed the fol
lowing spring. For those who en
joy collecting, primroses are ideal
as there are. several hundred va
rieties and one can never be sure
he has them all. And there are
primroses for almost every sort
of soil and location. Few of our
western houses list very many
varieties. But I have found an
English house with a branch In
this country that has several doz
en varieties listed. England one
thinks of, of course, as the home
of the primrose.
To anyone who is seriously in
terested in the growth and col
lection of primroses I might sug
gest that the state library has
some very Interesting material on
their culture.
And now it seems I have stray
ed along the "primrose path," a
favorite one of mine.
