New Delights Are Yours in Creating 
A Rock Garden on the Home Grounds

there may be a slope at the lot lines, or along 
the side of the garage, in the space between 
driveway and lot line, or even against the house. 
For ease of accomplishment and permanence, 
with freedom of up-keep expense the Rock 
Garden has become especially popular for the 
economy-minded.
