real home for his or her family; one 

 who was neither directly nor indirectly 

 connected with the florists' business. 

 And I may say that I have been really 

 particular in my selection. 



Now, I might tell here how I came to 

 select Mrs. James S. Watts to give to 

 the florists of Baltimore, and the coun- 

 try as well, the opinion of a person not 

 in the trade on whether or not flowers 

 are a luxury. 



Yard Filled with Roses. 



On several occasions this spring I 

 saw great bunches of all the best va- 

 rieties of roses that came from her 

 yard. When I met her I let her know 

 that I was interested in flowers, espe- 

 cially roses, and she gave me an invi- 

 tation to come out and see the yard 

 she was so proud of. When I got out 

 on Maryland avenue I found her house 

 about midway in the block. It has a 

 nicely furnished front porch and the 

 thing that attracted my attention was 

 a large vase filled with roses and at- 

 tached to one of the columns. 



As we went through to the yard, in 

 every room except the kitchen was a 

 vase of roses; and the yard contains 

 nothing but roses, about seventy-five or 

 100 of them. She went from plant to 

 plant and told me its name, as if it 

 were a member of her family she was 

 talking about. It was not hard to see 

 why her rose garden was such a suc- 

 cess, for with her it was a labor of 

 love. 



In this block there are twelve or 

 tliirteen houses with no fences between 

 and each yard but one a duplicate of 

 the other. The one exception is owned 

 by a man who believes in economy. 

 This summer he has removed every 

 flower from his yard and planted it in 

 potatoes. 



This yard adjoins that of Mrs. Watts 

 and a better object lesson would be 

 hard to find. The thought struck me 

 that I could find no one better able to 

 give an opinion on the subject of this 

 article, and so I put the question to 

 her direct: 



"Mrs. Watts," I asked, "do you 

 think flowers are a luxury; that dur- 

 ing the war, if times get hard and 

 money scarce, people will do without 

 them?"
