Growers whose flowers were blighted by the un- seasonal cold snap find pleasure in the satisfaction that they received from watching their flowers grow from Now Is The Time To Install - A N T I -F R E E Z E - in y o u r CAR -S -S - Buy Your PERMANENT ANTI FREEZE HERRIMAN MOTOR CO. WHILE IT LASTS M l HE»** IK E ARE HERE tiny plants in the spring to full-blooming bushes in the fall. Of all the cultural activities followed by the people gripped in this mad, headlong dash called the 20th century, the growing of flowers, commonly known as floriculture, is the greatest leveler and the most soothing of all the elements that give expression to man’s highest emotional nature and a feeling of appreciation for the cultural efforts of others. Gardening is cultural, almost spiritual, because it develops appreciation of the flower, one of the most beautiful elements in Mother Nature’s great storehouse of beauty. Appreciation of a flower does not deteriorate into snobbishness, but the language of the flower makes all mankind akin. What is more fascinating, more friendly, more uplifting than an hour’s conversation over the back fence with a neighbor about the problems, aspirations and heart-aches of gardening? Unlike some of the aesthetic manifestations in man’s life, floriculture is not confined to a small number of experts, but is participated in by any who love the out door beauties of nature and have the courage and strength to engage in manual activity. Although the October frosts reduced the entries that will be exhibited at the flower show, the exhibitors will be able to feel a just pride in their displays, revealing hours of tender care, given not for monetary recompense, but only in the hope of developing a delicate something that might bring joy to themselves and to others.
