A reception was given Thursday evening in the M. E. church parlors in hon or of Rev. and Mrs. J. N. Bur den, who arrived from Portland a week ago to take over the charge here. A short program , was present ed with II. J. Richter, Sunday school supeiintendent. in charge. The numbers were as follows: Pi ano solo, Juliana Abraham; read ing, Jean Abraham; a vocal solo, Eleanor Massey; two vocal num bers, Mrs. H. W. Torbet; and short talks of wel ome by H. J. Richter, Mrs. W. R. Osborne, supt. of the primary department; Dowell Callis, pastor of the Am ity Christian church, and IL W. Torbet. Rev. and Mrs. Burdell responded with appropriate re marks. At the close of the program a Social hour was enjoyed with light refreshments Berved. Because the railroad pension fund was declared unconstitution al, rail workers in Houston, Tex as, had $75,000 paid into the pen sion fund of three railroads re turned to them. 4 ww TILL you remind us when YY Jt is time to plant iris?" one of my correspond ents wrote A May when irises were blooming. Well, It's here. Irises may be planted at any time. They will do better if planted its early as possi ble to give them time to establish their roots. There are a few esse n 1 1 a 1 rules of iris cul ture which should be fol lowed closely. A sunny location should be select ed. Good" drain age should be as sured. Those who specialize in, iris, rather op pose the placing of them in herb aceous borders where the sun can not penetrate to the rhizomes. However, If there is a sunny place in the border and if this space is not too crowded they will do fair ly well there. I have seen many lovely clumps of iris in herbace ous borders. Go Easy on Fertilizer The soil should be sweet and not heavily fertilized. Lime may be worked in the ground and so may bonemeal, but neither should be overdone. Limestone dug into the bed in the making Is said to be sufficient for years. Super phosphate of lime dug into the soil when planting or transplant ing divisions is said to be of aid in warding off rhizome rot, one of the diseases which prove so dis astrous to an iris bed. Should some of your valuable rhizomes look doubtful when you are to transplant them, drp them in a solution of permanganate of potash and then leave them in a dry, airy place for four or five weeks before putting them in the ground again. It does not seem to harm iris rhizomes if they do dry up. Do not plant your rhizomes too deeply. They should be placed just below the level of the soil surface. Hints on Varieties Among the early iri3 varieties which are worth planting in the garden are Santa Barbara, Desert Gold, and Buto. A later group at tracting much attention include Venus DeMilo, an ivory white; Sensation, a large blue, and the deep yellow Pluie D'Or. In the Cooley gardens which held "open house" to visitors dur ing the flowering season at Sil- verton this year, were examples of many lovely combinations. Among those extremely popular were Mrs. Herbert Hoover, a pink ish one, the buff Euphooe and the blue Wedgewood; the brown and orange Grace Sturtevant and the ivory Eothen. Among the really lovely gold en hued nes are Phebus, Chrom ylla. Alta California, California Gold, Happy Days. Alchemy, and Lady Paramount. If you are look ing for something especially fine and have $20 to spend on one root you might get the Itasca, which drew so much attention In the Cooley gardens. Itasca is or iginated by Dr. R. E. Kieinsorge of Silverton and is one of the darkest and most vivid deep ame thysts. None who saw it in May will forget it. Tip on Prices But most of the iris I mention can be bought for less than a dol lar.

The clear lavender-blue Santa. Bar bara, which I also mentioned, is but 25 cents a rhizome.. The can ary yellow Sunbeam is the same price. The interesting red Iris, Tiger-Tiger, brings something like $3 while the oddly colored Trail's End still sells for approximately 115. But Wedgewood is again in the quarter-of-a-dollar class and is as lovely as any real blue iris need be. The crimson brown Apache is one of the cheap vari eties like the Ambazzaduer, with its bronze standards and redish falls, will always be good if a very large, bold Iris Is wanted. Hernani is one of the brightest of the red group and is not ex pensive as fine Irises go. Anoth er one, for about the same price, is Mabel Taft, a giant blue. A deep violet for around a dollar is M. A. Porter. You may purchase the magnificent 1 mahogany red. Peerless at three for a. dollar, and likewise the organgy and coral red Omaha. Flower in Autumn The autumn flowering iris is one of the newer kinks in iris dom. Several yarieties bloom both In autumn and In spring. Some of the new improved autumn blooming ones, such as the South land, bring a price too high for the average gardener. But there are others such as the Ultra, an ultramarine blue, which blooms in the spring with the dwarfs and again over a long period in aut umn. This can be had for 25 cents. October Opera, a wine red which blooms best In the fall, al though it will alo bloom in the spring, is a medium priced one. selling for something like 1 3. Golden Harvest, a blue and yel low Iris blooming in autumn, is comparatively, cheap. . A Salem gardener asked me this week if it is too late to mulch the garden sow. By no means. If you have no mulch on your shrubs or trees and desire to put one on, do so at once. What kind? Well, peat moss is the most convenient. Clippings from the lawn may also be used. Stir the soil before placing the mulch and if it Is very dry apply water; The dry winds we are so apt to have at this time of the year will not do nearly as much damage if our shrubs, roses ' and borders are mulched. Mulching will also fur nish some plant food. 1BWM SPEEDED in I ID 1 Federated Board In First Meeting HUBBARD, July 20.

Oats were being cut the latter part of the week, and wheat is ' being cut now, which means the s threshing machine will be making its rounds in a week or ten, days.
