To a person who has always been accustomed to trees, flowers and lawns It Is hard to realize that there are thousands of people living where "nothing green grows." And, It Is not at all surprising that some of our new comers, who have just left such a barren land, think Grants Pass Is beautiful. So it Is but how much more beautiful we can make It by taking more pride nnd Interest In our homes and public buildings Trees planted now and propeVly cared for until they have made a good start will be a pleasure to many people for years to come. A corner In the back yard, If cleared of the rubbish which has been collecting for some time, can be made a place of beauty by planting- some hardy shrubs, such as the Hl'.ic, snowball, spiraea nnd many others. A climbing rose would greatly Imprcve the ap pearance of the back fence-and wood shed. Every school should be covered slth Newton fry. This eoulcf be ac- hare "Ivy day" at the schools The junior class at each bulldliu planting their vine in the fall and as long as they are In the building it huu!d be their special" priviTege to care for It. Rom-x nnd trees might be pint,! in the same way and before long each school would be very attia.uve in appearance. Every property owner can Increase the value of bis place wonderfully by planting trees along the sidewalk, cleaning up tne b,vk yard, prepar ing a luwnf irony a small onc, and plaining a fevr flowers. Now u the time To plant rose. Two yvar old plant, given a good locution U,,l care, will be in bloom In t Inn- f..r the rose show. The Ladles' Auxiliary will be very pbd fo help a-iy one In the selection of roses, So let us all become boosters for "Grafts Pass, the Rose Cfry of Southern Oregon," by planting a few nrw choice roies every year.
