Another bone of contention is tlio 

 use of edging pl;ints, some liolding Ihnt 

 tlie grass is the best setting for a muss 

 of I'olor, wliile others contend that an 

 edging of some suitai)le i)hint gives the 

 better finish. It really all depends on 

 the size of the beds and the class of 

 plants used. liarge beds are generally 

 improved by tlic use of a suitable edg- 

 ing ])lant, but in the ease of small beds 

 an edging tends to destroy the Itroad 

 effect. Again, tall plants that do not 

 (^arry plenty of foliage right down to 

 the ground demand a suitable edging. 

 (''arc should always be taken to group 

 plants togetlier that present a har- 

 monious effect. 



In all bedding arrangements restraint 

 should be the keynote. Two, or at the 

 most three, varieties or kinds of jilants 

 are enough to use in any one bed, and 

 not "anything from a hardy annual to 

 a stove plant," as was usual in the 

 past. 



GROWING ON POOR SOIL. 



.\ method of crop culture that will 

 maintain high production on infertile 

 Khode Island soils without the use of 

 stable manure lias been announced by 

 the experiment station of the Rhode 

 Island Mtato Agricultural College, at 

 Kingston. The official results of widely 

 varied experiments extending over six 

 years liave just been made iniblic and 

 at this time, when the increasing use of 

 motor power and vehicles is curtailing 

 animal by-products, the announcement 

 is esjjccially interesting. 



Cabbages, tomatoes and celery were 

 grown on typical Rhode Island soil un- 

 der a wide variety of treatments, rang- 

 ing from heavy ap]»lications of stable 

 manure to conditions where stable ma- 

 nure was entirely omitted and the crops 

 grown altogether on green manure and 

 chemical fertilizers. Green manures arc 

 crops such as clover or rye, that are 

 sown in the late summer and plowed
