Y., Examples Win Other Prizes in Contest Spokane, Wash., March 4.—(NEA) —From hundreds of gardens, laid ou'. by amateur gardeners all over the United States, that of Mr. and Mrs Gus Ehrenburg, Spokane, has won first prize as being the most beautiful in the country. The Ehrenburg garden, which tn fact is a beautiful outdoor living room, received the unanimous vote of the judges of the National Yard and Garden Contest as first prize winner in the amateur contest. Mrs. Ehrenburg, “the lady of the garden,” her husband and twe sons, Elliott and Allen, have done wonders with a plot of ground which has but a 50-foot frontage. Plant Many Flowers In their small plot one can find almost every flower that shows its beauty on the Pacific coast. There are annuals and perennials, shrubs in profusion, fruiting and flowering vines, trim and stately evergreens, and other trees. Work on the garden was done en- tirely by the family. Ehrenburg, 8 busthess man, got most of his exer- cise spading and pruning the garden. Mrs. Ehrenburg took care of the tidy details and the decorations, which consist of umbrellas, lanterns, chairs, garden benches and ther such orna- ments. The boys aided*in weeding, planting and pruning, and in the decorating scheme. Back to Nature The family’s desire for fresh air caused the creation of the “outdoor livingroom.” The start was modest, consisting of a few trees and shrubs. Graudally the planting was increased with the interest in the hobby until it reached its goal of winning the na- tional prize. The appearance of the garden is beautiful. The shrubs, trees and flowers surround an open lawn which is kept neatly trimmed and edged. Scattered over the lawn and back in- to shady nooks created by the trees and shrubs are inviting seats offering tool seclusion from summer heat. The furnishings of their home grounds have given the Ehrenburgs two outdoor rooms. One of these is a Japanese tea room and the other an orchard room. ‘ Mrs. Ehrenburg uses the garden to furnish atmosphere for some of the songs she composes. She has pro- duced more than 20 children’s songs. he also composes numerous papers in the garden and reads them before the Spokane Garden club. Two Other Winners Two other prize winning gardens | were selected by National Yard andj Garden Contest officials in two other classes. One of these !s owned by Mrs. Au- gusta McElroy, who won the chani- pionship in Class II (hiring only manual labor). The garden is in Erie, Pa. The second is that of Henry D.| Know, East Aurora, N. Y. He won| first prize in Class III (expert skill employed — landscape architect and gardeners) and his is considered one of the most beautiful gardens in the Empire state. Winners received ornamental stone garden furniture as prizes. Beach Man Not Guilty Of Stealing Horses . Beach, N. D., March 4.—In district court here Friday W. T.
