was given Thursday evening in

or of Rev. and Mrs. J. N. Bur

ano solo, Juliana Abraham; read

Eleanor Massey; two vocal num
bers, Mrs. H. W. Torbet; and
short talks of wel ome by H. J.
Richter, Mrs. W. R. Osborne,

Because the railroad pension
fund was declared unconstitution

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 beautiful cornflower

blue "Sensation? which I hate al
ready mentioned can be" had for
75 cents from iris dealers. 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.
