cut off tbc liot, drying winds. 
There isn’t as wide use made of rollers 
in this section as would seem to be ad¬ 
visable. A number of market gardeners, 
however, are finding that it pays them to 
roll their land before seeding. Of course 
much depends upon the character of the 
soil, but the plan should be considered 
wherever seeds are slow to germinate. 
When you come to make up your list 
of garden flowers this year don’t overlook 
the spider plant, catalogued as Cleome by 
seedsmen. While this is an annual, it 
will self-sow, and conies up year after 
year, so that you need only dig up the 
plants and put them where you want 
them. It has a long season of bloom, is 
very ornamental, and is fine for filling 
in vacant spaces in the hardy border. 
Another interesting plant, and one not 
often seen in gardens, is the Tigridla or 
shellflower. It grows from a bulb, like 
the Gladiolus, and is one of the most gor¬ 
geous blooms you can have. Unfortu¬ 
nately a flower lasts duly a day, but you 
will have a reasonably long succession, as 
each bulb makes a number of blooms.

Dooryard Planting in Delaware 
What kind of flowers or shrubbery can 
I plant in ray front yard to best advan¬ 
tage? It is very light and sandy, and 
lias considerable shade. Also advise about 
what time of the year is best for moving 
a lilac bush and a Hydrangea, and how 
to train them. 
DELAWARE FARMER’S WIFE. 
You will find that the following shrubs 
will prove satisfactory in Delaware: 
Forsythia viridissima. Pyrus .Taponica, 
Deutzia gracilis and Deutzia crenata, 
Spines Viau Ilouttei,. Spinea prunifolia. 
Spirant Anthony Waterer and Caleycan- 
.thus floridus. Then, of course, you want 
roses. The rambler roses are better suit¬ 
ed to a sandy soil than most others. The 
Crimson Rambler known as the Flower 
of Fairfield, is better than the old Crim- 
Cleomc or Spider Floicer 
sou Rambler, as it makes the usual Sp 
show and then blooms again in Aug 
Dorothy Perkins is a pink rambler 
very pretty. The modern Hybrid 
roses are the best constant bloom 
Among the best are Gen. MacArt 
Rady Ashtown, Mute. Ilravy, Killar 
M.v Maryland. Do not depend on the 
tie slips smit by mail, but get the t 
year dormant plants. Roses that 1 
boon forced into bloom in pots are sob 
worth planting. The best time to m 
lilacs is in November. If your liydran 
Hydrangea hortensis, the shoots n 
b ‘‘ protected in the Fall if you w 
bloom. I bend them down after 
leaves are oil in the Fall and peg tl 
fast to the ground, and then cover tl 
vitli grass sods. Kept in this way, t 
bloom finely. Prune out only stun 
wood and preserve all the shoots m 
during the Summer, as these are 
1 miing shoots. Here most people j 
bu them with green pine bushes sti 
thickly around them. I prefer the sc

Tests That Proved Hudson 
A1 so Sp6cik jfoi* Essex 
And Essex Holds World’s 
50-Hour Endurance Record 
Built by the same makers, Hudson’s un¬ 
equalled records also speak for Essex 
They foretold performance never expected 
of a light car. 
The prophecies now are facts. 
An Essex stock chassis set the world’s 50- 
hour endurance mark of 3037 miles. That is 
officially certified by the American Automo¬ 
bile Association. And Essex holds the world 
mark of 1061 road miles in 24 hours. A 
stock touring car did that. 
Local road, speedway and hill-climbing 
records in every section of the country are 
held by Essex. Scores of abusive tests have 
proved the endurance that 30,000 owners 
find in the daily service of their Essex cars. 
Judge Essex Quality 
By the Hudson Standard 
But it is not only in performance that 
Essex shows the same stamp of quality as 
Hudson. Its beauty of line, its luxury of 
appointment are the work of years of leader¬ 
ship in coach design. 
See the care and completeness, even in the 
smallest details. Its riding comfort, its 
smooth, quiet running ease, with the sug¬ 
gestion of well-contained reserve power, are 
qualities comparable to the finest of high- 
priced cars, yet you gain all the advantages 
of the light weight type, more important 
today than ever. 
Judge the Essex, not by the light weight 
standards that you have known, but by the 
much more exacting requirements of the 
large, costly cars. Measure it by the highest 
standard of performance and fine quality, 
rather than by its moderate price. 
You, too, will find the appeal that has 
won 30,000. 
In all Hudson’s unmatched records this 
important fact is clear—No ability is sacri¬ 
ficed in one direction to gain supremacy in 
another. 
Hudson Records Prove 
Its All-Round Mastery 
Hudson is the fleetest. Its stock car speed 
records have never been equalled. On the 
speedway its racing cars won more points 
than any other team ever' gained. 
But its speed means no forfeit of other 
qualities. For in official tests, the Super-Six 
has also out-performed all other types, in 
endurance, hill-climbing and acceleration. 
In every motor performance it has estab¬ 
lished leadership by unanswerable proofs. 
Only a supreme advantage, that others 
cannot use, could account for such all-round 
dominance. Hudson has it in the Super-Six 
motor. It minimizes vibration to within 
10% of vanishing—nearer the ideal than 
any type we know. 
In the same size motor the exclusive 
Super-Six principle added 72% to power, 
and 80% to efficiency. Endurance is practi¬ 
cally doubled.
