Authorised Canadian Government Agents When Once Eetabllahed Numerous Splendid Flowers Will Qrow Year After Year--Endless Combl- » ' nations Are Possible. Sufficient variety in planting the garden annuals will assure cat flowera all summer, suggests the United Btates Department of Agriculture. There are so many different garden Sowers that are easy to raise, that almost endless combinations may be selected. One would surely want an abundance of blue cornflowers, sometimes called "bachelor's buttons, " "ragged sailor," "ragged robin," or a variety of other names. When placed in water after cutting, the flowers Increase In site. The seeds of these annuals should be sown In the fall or In the spring from the time the ground Is fit to work until the last of May in the North and the last of June In the South. They may be started earlier under glass. The young plants should be thinned to 4 to 6 Inches apart. They thrive well on all moderately rich garden soils. When once established they will usually reseed themselves year after year. Scabiosa, often called mourning hride. pin-cushion flower, and sweet scabious, is an easily grown old-fashioned half-hardy annual that is very attractive and satisfactory both for cutting and for borders and beds. Hie flowers, which vary from white through rose, crimson and blue to almost black, are borne on long stems and keep a - long time either on the plant or when cut. The seed should be sown In the open ground after danger from hard frost Is past and the plants will bloom in about 12 weeks. There are also hardy perennial kinds. The Popular Zinnia. The home garden is not complete without zinnias, sometimes called "youth-and-old-age." They are easily grown from seed sown In the open ground. When sown as soon as the ground is flt to work, the plants will !>!<>oni abundantly and continuously through the entire season. Of late >:reat improvements have been wrought both In the color and form of the flower. Their colors are white, yellow, orange, pink, rose and scarlet To secure large flowers and a profusion of bloom the plants must be given ample room for full development as well as an abundant supply of food. Strong rich soils suit them. If the seeds are sown in a dwelling house or in a hotbed and the young plants are pricked out once or twice before being placed in their permanent situations more satisfactory results will be secured than from outdoor- sown seeds, unless equal care In thinning or transplanting Is given. The plants can be used for groups,, beds, borders, garden lines and summer hedges. Their average height is 2Mi feet, ranging from 2 to 3 feet. | There are two forms of "baby's- Jsreath" of which the perennial Is, lometimes considered best, but the annual type may be used with good effect for combining with other cut flowers. It is sown in the open ground as soon as freezing weather Is past. J Per Fall Blossoms. The China aster Is certainly one off the most satisfactory of the annua! flowering plants. Its habit of growths Adapts the China aster to close plant* lng for cut bloom, ror window boxed and also for bedding. It should not' be confused with the attractive native, hardy perennial asters.

When frosts occur during this season the planting will need to be done in a coldframe, a spent hotbed or in pots or boxes in a living room. Cover the seed about half an Inch deep with rich light soil, and when the plants have three or four leaves transfer them to thumb pots or to other boxes, setting the plants about two inches apart. 'After all danger of frost is past transplant the plants so treated to their j«.'rmanent home, where they should stand about eighteen Inches apart each way in well-prepared beds. Fresh manure or manure used in too large quantities sometimes proves injurious to them. In the galliardlas, or blanket flowers, are found both annual and perennial plants of easiest culture, offering, a wide selection of varieties and c profusion of bloom over a long period The blooming period begins early and: continues late in the autumn. These are plants well adapted to mixed borders and are very > satisfactory as cut Bowers. The stems are of good length, carrying the orange and crimson flowers well, while the cut flowers keep fresh for a long time when placed in water. The perennial types are often preferred.

Feathers have an Intense religious significance for Indians, and are valued for this far more than for their value as ornaments. To a Hopl a feather Is tantamount to a prayer, and the use of one or two feathers In his prayers is considered sufficient to ensure a favorable reply. When an Indian desires something urgently he wil tie a feather to a stick and conceal It In a shrine which he himself has constructed. This is considered extremely efficacious. Small, fluffy feathers dangling from the ceilings of huts by strings are common sights. They represent prayers for trifles. Indians are always careful to keep a stock of prayers or feathers on hand, so that they will not be caught empty handed when an occasion or prayer arises. It was a departure from this custom which accounts or the use of feathers in costumes. Squaws of tribes whose habitat was Virginia wore mantles fringed with feathers, and the Colonial records also tell of coats made of blue feathers sewed so close and thick that the coat looked like satin.

If the ground is very dry, a little water may be sprinkled In the furrows before the seeds are planted. Heavy clay soils are likely to form a crust over the seeds after rains. The crust should be broken so that the seeds can come through. worms of all kinds, especially .the worms that devour vegetable*, are their choice morsels. Two or three wren boxes about the back yard garden will prove a good investment. Only a little encouragement Is necessary to induce the wrens to build.
