work of lath, painted white, is the most satis- 

 factory support, because of the pleasing color- 

 contrast between it and the plants trained over 

 it. Both support and plant will be ornamental, 

 and one will admirably supplement the other. 

 The lattice will be an attractive feature of the 

 garden when the vine that grew over it is dead, 

 if it is kept neatly painted.

But for the rampant grower a coarse-meshed 

 wire netting is just as good, and considerably less 

 expensive, in the long run, as it will do duty for 

 many years, if taken care of at the end of the 

 season. Roll it up and put it under cover before 

 the fall rains set in.

The simple fact of newness is nothing in any 

 plant's favor. Unless it has real merit, it will 

 not find purchasers after the first season. Bet- 

 ter wait until you know what a plant is before 

 investing in it. We have so many excellent 

 plants with whose good qualities we are familiar 

 that it is not necessary to run any risks of this 

 kind.
