Planted In artistic pattern at In tervals, broken by green lawn, vines and trees, the flower beds achieve a naturalness, which makes of them very necessary splotches on the earthy canvass. Roses, "pinks," with apicy frag rance; delphinium and a deep blue flower, which claim t relationship to the one which adds glory to local woodlands in spring, best known as hound's tongue, form a pleasing border for the lawn. Covering a little bower, leading Into the orchard, honeysuckle vines are found, filling the air with their heavy fragrance, which dominates all other perfumes of the garden. On top the bower a black cat reigns as weather vane and king of the garden. He la a metal reproduction of the very live cat, a cherished possession of the Misses Carlton, who also appears in the garden for his sunbath. The sketch was made by A. R. Livingston and reproduced in metal by Mr. Warner of Central Point. The rose attracting most comment from the visitors yesterday morning Is an Austrian copper, which grows beside the front entrance of the house, facing eastward. The open side of the petals is a' beautiful orange red, resembling the lavorea color of nasturtiums. The outside still retains the yellow of the rose's ancestors. The Carltons dlscoverea the blossom for the first time on their arrival in Medford from the east in 1915. It had been grown by Dr. J. P. Reddy. When they re turned to make their home here they started the search for the rose, which waa one of the first planted at their grounds on the Old Stage road.

Children's Day To Be Sunday Event At Presbyterian Members of the' Jackson county court are today conferring with the state highway commission and the county courts of Douglas and Klam ath counties, in Portland on road programs for the three counties the coming two years. County Engineer Paul Rynnlng accompanied the coun ty court. It Is expected that a definite de cision will be reached on the Butte Falls market road and the Dead In dian market road, two uncompleted projects that link up with Klamath county and the Tiller-Trail road, a link with Douglas county. The Sams Valley secondary highway will also be considered. Douglas county, with the aid of federal road funds, has completed most of the Tiller-Trail road to the Jackson county line. Voters of the Trail district defeated a special road levy last November, whereby county and federal funds would have been assured.
