44 LANDSCAPE GARDEN SERIES 



Often a hedge or a lattice fence is all that is needed to define the 

 boundary. Flowers for cut purposes should be grown in the vegetable 

 garden, and there should be a cold frame for starting plants early in 

 the season and for growing greenery for garnishing purposes. A green- 

 house is highly desirable as it will thus afford flowers and greenery the 

 year through. A greenhouse can be made an interesting part of the 

 grounds. 



The laundry area should afford a segregated space for drying 

 clothes and is a necessity where there is much drying to be done. There 

 are many devices upon the market at the present, upon which to hang 

 clothes and which can be removed from the yard when not in use. 

 When a removable post is used it is not necessary to have a separate 

 and screened laundry yard when the use of the grounds for drying pur- 

 poses would be required but one day a week. However, it is wise to 

 have facilities for drying clothes in small quantities close to the kitchen 

 to be used for clothes to be dried upon days other than the regular wash 

 days; this area being screened, of course. 



Possibly one of the arrangements for erecting temporary posts upon 

 which to tie the clothes line is that in which a socket is set in the ground 

 which receives the post and which is covered over with a grass colored 

 metal cap when not in use. 



Inconspicuous containers for refuse should be located in the service 

 area where they are not unsightly and can be easily emptied.
