dcavors in tho effort to mive the town and tho homes within its borders beau tlful with flowers and shrubs to thirf end the officers have year after year secured expcrioitw5damateur and pro fessional lecturers to deliver illustrated addresses on th culture of flowe and plnnjts with suggestions as to proper methods of planting setting out flow ers and shrubs how to secure them economically and haw to secure be3t results what was perhaps the most com prehensive and helpful addresa of the aeries which have been given und r the auspices of this society was that of mr h j moore demonstrator for tho hoi tlcuttural department or on tario in the town hall last wednes day evening mr moores expe t training wide experience and natural love for flowers and shrubs and ther intelligent use in making homes and- home surroundings beautiful give him unusually apt qualifications for im parting knowledge and inspiration to an atidlehce already interested in the culture of flowers and making home and town attractive to alt 4 mr moore has adopted a slogan both aesthetic and ini- business and ho applied it to con vlncl ng advantage throughout hi splendid address ample proof was given that a town beautified with flowers and shrubs attracts tourists who spend jthelr money freely withit merchants it brings in desirable resi dents who desire to settle amid surroundings attractive and beautiful and who are of a character desirable as citizens a home beautified with flowers and shrubs and m well kept lawn is enhanced hi material value and in variably brings higher prices in case its sale is found to be desired than a property lacking theso features the home said mr moore ought to be like a diamond in its setting tho lawn the borders of flowers the shrubs to hide unsightly places give a setting or framework to the home which in variably attracts all valuable hints were given for the treatment of the home surroundings with perennial borders flowers and shrubs in clumps clear lawns and reea properly placed instructions were given in detail for the construe tlon of jterennlal borders to give best effect and successive bloom during the summer months and even to have at tractive features when the flowers are not in bloom in a perennial border at a rear or side line of tho property three rows of clumps of perennials should be used the higher varieties in the rear medium in the centre and lower at the front by this method the foliage of the lower plants hldo the bare stems of those behind and the bloom of each is exposed to view suitable varieties of plants for each was given a suggestion was made for where a perennial border was desired along a driveway to a garage or other out building in this case a row of the higher flowering plants should be planted in the centre and a row of lower ones on each side mr moore emphasised tho desir ability to emulate planting in masses and irregularly in the borders among toe newer and inexpensive plants ro- com mended for
