B. Stout, director of the New York Botanical Garden, as a result of his experience in growing some 50-odd species of lilies and many thousands of seedlings, states that there are three principal reasons why it is difficult to establish and maintain lilies in the gar- den. First, it is difficult to supply ideal growing conditions; second, it is difficult to obtain sound, healthy bulbs to start with, and, third, destructive agents, such’ as pine mice, mites and disease, cause severe losses. He states that most garden lilies en- joy good drainage and fairly rich, well prepared garden soil. They benefit also by the protection of some ground cover, such as pachysandra. Partial shade helps to keep the soil cool, In Winter a mulch of leaves or straw often is highly beneficial by preventing alter- nate thawing and freezing of the soil Until the lilies crowd it is inadvisable to disturb them. Dr. Stout adds that the very best of culture is of little avail if the bulbs are in faulty conditlon at the time of recep- tion. When lilies are dug, their roots are usually destroyed and when re- planted, the bulbs must form a new set of roots, a development accomplished rather slowly. Sometimes the bulbs make a rather satisfactory flower . talk the fisst year after thansplanting, but only a poor growth of roots. As a re- sult the bulb is exhausted and perishes or continues in a weakened state. The length of time that lily bulbs are out of the soil should be reduced to a min- imum and the need of improved meth- ods of handling is apparent. This fact explains in part why gardeners often have much bettsr success with bulbs raised from seed or bought near at hand. Certain species, such Lilium trigrinum, L. Henryi, L. croceum, L. Regale, L candidum and L. speciosum, multiply readily and remain established in the garden for several years. Others, such BY J. W.

The bulbs or corms are very moderate in initial cost and they tiply readily. especially if cne saves t little cormlets that form about the larg. | corm.” There is no particular difficulty in storing the crop of corms as there is with the dahlia tuber. The flower spikes are most admirable for cutting and home decoration. Much has been said of the supremacy of certain plant materials for land- | scape work, but none surpasses grass, if in the form of a well kept lawn. more effective than an overplanted area and much less costly to develop and | —Photograph by Extension Service, United States Department of Agriculture. as L.

Surely nothing could be more beautiful than a bed of Regal or Madonna lilies. | THE GLADIOLL The gladiolus occupies an equally prominent position in the Summer gar- den as the iris does in the Spring gar- den. Either flower could constitute a complete garden and both are aston- The gladioius tivation. Perhaps the ability to with- stand drying in the heated cellar in Winter is Gerived in part from their'na- tive climate. For many years garden- ers were greatly puzzled as to the proper pronunciation of the name gladiolus, but back in 1924 the American Gladi- olus Society decided on the accent on the “o” and that the singular and plural should be spelled the same way. Since | then people have come to adopt this simpler treatment of the word with much satisfaction to the every-day home gardener. One of the best ways to display gladiolus in the garden is 1o plant them n small clumps or groups among otier fowers, perhaps in the perennial border, A beq for cutting may at the sam> time be placed in the vegetable garden or among the annual flowers. The new corms or bulbs form above the old making it desirable to plant the corm! at least four or five inches ceep. This deeper planting aids also in supporting the stalks when thezy become heavy with blooms. Like most flowers, the gladiolus does best in full sunlight, making it desirable where possible to avold tree shades or too close planting to buildings except on the sunny ex- posures. Water in abundance is needed during the flowering stage, and this is another reason why trees are undesir- able neighbors. Shallow cultivation is better than dep because of the shallow spreading root system. Fertilizer should not be placec in contact with the corms. but is. nevertheless, nceded in our local soils if fine spikes are to be obtained When Autumn comes the corms sheuld be dug. although in our milder Winters. such as last. the corms will survive out f doors. They do not flower as well however, as when stored in a dry, cool place Varieties are multitudinous. In 193 the American Gladiolus listed over 7. 000 varieties, at least 3,000 of which are offered for sale by the various growers. | Of the 3,000, perhaps 100 are really outstanding. No flower. unless it is the dahlia, is more rapidly changing., so | that a list of better varieties in one vear may be considerably altered during an- other. Very few of the varieties pre- sented as winners in 1925 are now in the preferred lists. 5 LL.

Not only drastic poison and should be handled carefully with relation to chiidren. THE GARODEN CLUBS vegetables, but flowers have suffered, | the cut worms, true to name, cutting off the young plants at the ground or he rainy weather has been a Liing factor. since it has promot- soft, succulent stem favorable to the insect The extension service of the Uni- versity of Maryland warns that weedy fields and gardens are especially sus- ceptible to attack because such areas harbor the pests. This is another argu- ment in favor of cleaning up the gardens. For control, poison bran mash piaced aleng the : in the early evening appears the best protection. The mash is prepared by mixing an ounce of Paris green in 25 ounces of bran and moistening this with a mix- ture of one part molasses to six parts of water. The mass should be crumbly, but not sloppy. For slightly larger amounts uce six pounds of bran, cne- quarter pound of Paris green, one pint of molasses and three quarts of water. This mixture is poisonous to animals and humans and should be used with care. Obviously the sooner this pre- ventive measure s carried out after voung plants are set out in the garden greater the possibility of beneficial Tesults. JAPANESE BEETLES Information released by the press service of the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture states that the Japancse bectle cannot be destroyed by poison tprays because of its refusal to feed on plant tissues coated with spray. Less than a third of the beetles present eat enough of the poison to csuse their death. However, sprayving is effective by simply repelling the beetles. Lead arsenate is said to be a successful repellant as is also a sulphur lime preparation known as New Jersey dry mix. Traps baited with a geranium oil known geranol are chiefly valuable as detec- tors of the presence of Japanese beetle as they do not catch all the bbetles attracted to the vicinity. This latter peint should answer a q minds of many local gardeners the fe: ity of procu-ing traps for use on their own grounds. SOME FLOWER DISEASES Very few of the plants that grow in our gardens are completely free from disease; the rose has its black spot_and canker, the lilies and bubs | botrytis rot of the roots, asters wilt and yellow, and so forth. In fact, one can scarcely name a plant that is | wholly free. Most plants survive de- spite disease and insects rather than because of their absence. The use of sprays and dusts in home gardens is | exceedingly difficult because so often there are only one or two plants of a kind and many different kinds. Quite different from going into an orchard of apples or a field of beans with one plant_species only. spot which appears in irregular black areas on the upper surfaces of the leaves and occaslonally on the petioles, Stems ‘and flower buds. | The . lower leates are first attacked, the discase finaily progressing upward until the | ’ terial disease for which the only remeds | is sanitation: that is, destruction of | discased paris, drenching the crowns in Spring with a weak solution of mer- cury bichioride, and rotation of plant- | | ings wherever feasible, Iris root rot often appears at this ason and may be first detected by a dying of the leaves. especially those in | the center of the clump. nation, the rhizone or fleshy root may | be found to be destroyed by a soft, wet | foul smelling decay. About the only | control is to uproot the clump, divide the plants and. after cutting out the ol e e in_a | replant in fresh soil. This disease is | generally supplementary to the | borer which makes the initial wounds | Home gardeners should take advantage | of such a situation by replacing the diseased plants with some of the newer | kinds for there are really too many inferior frises in our local gardens. Some of the Japanese varieties could very well be included in a new program of nlanting. Snapcragons often suffer from a rust which eppears as chocolate brown, powdery pustules, mostly cn the lower surface, but scme times on the upper surface of the leaves. On the stems these pustules are elongated in shape. Heavy infection causes the plants to bloom prematurelv on dwarfed shoots and frequently kills the plants outright. Control is secured by selection of cut- tings if the plants are so propagated. Rust is not carried over on the seed so one has a reasonable chance to grow healthy plants if renewed yearly and in the late Autumn the old plants are de- stroyed by burning.

This volume and “Germany’s Road to Ruin” cover the reign of Wilhelm II from Bismarck to Bulow. “Aside from its delightful readability and portrayal of character. Nowak's book may also serve a useful purpose. If Punch and the British press were too often inclined | to represent the Kaiser as an interna- tional jack-in-the-box who kept Europe’s nerves cn edge with his militaristic ges- tures, and if the German people have been tco inclined to worship blindly the superhuman greatness of the creator of their empire. this book may serve to redress the balance."—S.
