Also, in planting observe the dlMnnco apart recommended I by authorities which are given In the catalogues. Those have been figured out by careful ex periment us to the root area nec 'wssary for.

Narcissi aro best at eight j inches as they make a much larg ! er root system. The small bulbs may be lucked in an inch apart for mass display. Hyacinths need eight Inches apart to be at their best. It is best to plant the bulbs at the proper depth and refrain from mulching except in case of hyacinths which are. such early liners that a light mulch is ad vlsnblc to protect them from early rains and freezes.

' Long Ago Gardens I often long' for the days spent in my pioneer home with Its old fushioned flower garden 'and vlnc-covercd cabin where morn glories greeted me at the win dow. What a desolato place such homes would havo been without flowers! Like faoos with out smiles! ' -r t '' My old-fashioned flower, garden was very different from prosent day gardens with their cultiva ted plants and shrubs.' We had no greenhouses from ' which to buy plants, so everyone raised flowers from' seed.'. Our beds wore built up hslf a foot as tho soil was not well i.alned. For my flowers, one end of the vegetable garden was reserv ed. In this space we laid out tho beds, some square, othre rectangular. In others tho rows went east and west. I always had beds of beauti ful phlox.' bouncing-bets, ragged rohlns, larkspur, lobelia, touch-me-nots, old-fashioned pinks, four o'clocks, foxgloves, verbenas, Sca hiosas, snapdragons, daisies, bleed -In heart, butter-and-eggs, and many other -old-fashioned flower species. Along the' fertco we planted hollyhocM, s-nlloWf!rs, pole beans, and anow-on-the mountain. ' , ' . . Even tho vegetablo garden was bordered on two sides .with a dainty flower border.

One cool October-day,-our teach or said; ."liet's have a Hallowe'en party!'.'- Of courso, we all agreed.

There were black-and-orailge paper streamers' hung over the registerrand round the lights. At: the ends, of these were pinned black cats. A ' shock of fodder, with pumpkins round tho base, waa placed In the middle of the room. Then wo put pumpkin faeos in all the windows. We past ed pumpkin faces on the black board, and on the side of the room where there were no windows, we crossed black-and-orango paper ntreamcrs and pinned blank cats, owls, and witches here and there. This completed our decorations, and I must say that It you look ed at that room, you would know that Hallowe'en was surely near. The time for the party arrived. The room whs decoratod boautl- fully. Now for tho games! . On a string stretched acroru the room was - hung an embroidery hoop. Ono of the girls held the hoop still while tho rest of the claaa were given a certain number of peanuts. The object of this game was to -roe who .could stand back and throw the greatest number of their peanuts through tho hoop.
