IN THE ROSE GARDEN 



t has been said, "Amateur Gardeners," that I 

 assumed that every woman who had a garden 

 worked in it. No, I do not assume that— but 

 I do assume that every woman so fortunate 

 as to possess a flower garden takes sufficient 

 interest in her garden to know the right and 

 the wrong method of gardening. Fortunately there is 

 a vast number of clever and intelligent amateur garden- 

 ers who have studied seriously, who have worked hard, 

 who have made every effort to understand the cor- 

 rect method of flower gardening and of solving many 



of the problems which in the beginning seemed to 

 ^, J them almost inexplicable, but which, after 

 u all, like most things are simple enough ^| 

 when one knows how. I really think 

 J , fl" essential that all possessors '^^^J'^^j 



^SrS^^tti of gardens should know and intel- "-^i^^geE
